Moonlander - Stone Gossard

[B]

Jesus Christ, B.

Damn. I was sure that wasn't there.

I see the stream on the website but where's the download?

Underneath the album information I see "Info / Buy / Download"

On the page with the stream/artwork? I don't see it.

[Norah]

Oh, it's in the player.

[Norah]

I am so impressed that it's a free wav download.

[B]

He's really not putting out a CD?

[bodysnatcher]

what's the "my old friend" song?

edit: nm just saw B's thread

[BurtReynolds]

i like it.

edit: nevermind i got to the chorus.

I am mildly put off by the limited edition nature of the vinyl release. Just sounds like another opportunity for someone to resell on ebay/amazon for 20-30 times the price paid.

Do the right thing, Stone/Monkeywrench. Just release it and when you run low on the first pressings, make some more.

Yeah please, so i dont have to buy it right now.

I can't imagine Stone Gossard vinyl is a hot commodity outside the Pearl Jam fan stratosphere. And even then, it won't include all those fans.

no, but why they already telling us is a limited run of copys?? Was the RNDM one limited?

Hmm not sure, but i see it in the store all the time. Probably the same 5 copies .. it's like $30. ridiculous.

The RNDM packaging is pretty stout...i thought I got ripped off at first when I ordered it but was pretty pleased with how nice the vinyl was.

It was originally limited, but they re-released it.

For the record, there are no copies of Jeff's vinyl on eBay and there are RNDM vinyls on eBay, but none have been bid on.

By the way, the new song is really good.

By the way, the new song is really good.

I really enjoyed the song. Heard it twice last night. It sort of fits Stone's groove and sound and voice. Can't wait for this album. I am gonna have to lurk until they announce the vinyl pre-order because I want it enough. I'm happy with this.

[WaitingForBluey]

I really like it. Sounds exactly like what I was hoping for from a Stone solo album. Something different, experimental, some good solos, Stone's humorous/sarcastic lyrics. Looking forward to this album now.

I'm actually listening to Natalie Maines' cover of "Without You" now, and wow, I really like what she's done here.

More than the track itself, I think it's cool to see Ed's songs transcending their limited sphere--I think that's a special distinction in a songwriter's career. And I like that she chose something a little off the beaten path--and then picked it for a single.

I'm enjoying her version much more than I've ever enjoyed the original.

There's a commercial blandness to it that, for me, sucks some of the character out of the composition--the chord voicings, etc. I'm not sure it's a song that I really hear calling for that big rock beat. I know I'm one of RM's lone "Uke Songs" champions but I definitely favor the warmth and intimacy of Ed's original.

I like the pop sheen of her cover, I think it highlights the strengths of the melody. I don't think it's a great song in either form, but at least her version's ear-candy arrangements distract me from that.

yeah, i'm with you on this.

even more, though, love the new stone track. looking forward to the album.

Do you think I'll be able to get a dog collar with artwork by Stone's daughter?
