Yup, Spence, and the version of Other Side with Joseph Arthur singing was as good, maybe better, than the PJ version. Going by those two tunes, this record might be a little less left-of-centre than the last one.

I know Jeff doesn't sell a ton of solo albums, but have they just given up trying? Not even a tweet?
I'm holding out for a real disc.

I'm holding out for a real CD, too. I like something, with liner notes and artwork, to hold in my hand, Goddamnit. B!, what you wrote about "have they given up trying?" would never have happened with an EV release, that's for sure.

I thought that Other Side demo had Jeff on vocals?

Looking forward to this one! I enjoyed Tone for what it was, it had some real good songs.
The samples sound already promising. 20 years in PJ and Jeff is still very much inspired to make music, Tres Mts was rockin' and his solo record are a nice addition to the PJ universe.

I'm pretty sure it's Joseph. Someone gave me an original CD (and vault #1, too), let me check for ye.

The CD rings up at $12+$9.20S&H. There's no way that's right. I sent them an e-mail. That almost doubles the cost of the CD.

Ten Club says it's a cookie issue, and eventually my shipping was back to $7.70. I don't know. $12 for a Jeff CD? Sure. $20? Yea..uh ... I ... um ... I'm thinkin'.
