I saw CB + band at a club show towards the end of last year. They did about 4 tunes from the upcoming album and they were all very enjoyable.

It's also one of those sorts of great songs that you hear and think "Surely somebody has written this song before?"

Isn't that first song basically About A Girl?

I'm pretty sure its well over a year old. It's been in the live set on and off for a while. Nice version on Ellen the other day.

This is a really lovely record.
My LP's arrived last night. This is quite an improvement song writing wise on the EP's.
