Love how I can listen to these amazing songs at any time on YouTube. I feel like it's a privilege I don't deserve, to be able to listen to such beautiful and organic rock and roll without paying a penny. Thanks you guys, keep doing what you do 👊

This whole album is such a beautiful throwback to their first few albums, with the polish and expertise of two artists who are masters of their craft.

A great compliment to RLB's Skinny Woman / Busted that kicked off The Big Come Up almost 20 years ago. Been waiting for this one. Love it.

Honestly, I could go for a whole other album of songs like this haha. They should've made this a double album.
