Beautifully played and well recorded, the opening track sounds quite apt (to me) as a sunny autumn day begins.
Try this one, too....

Thanks w', I've got a DVD of it knocking around somewhere but haven't played it in a long while.

Giving the speakers a pounding with a first listen...............................brilliant.
Ohhh......Yeeehhhh! Stonking sound quality, about to play again.
There's been so many folks eagerly awaiting this, their first new release since 2009, and blimey, it doesn't disappoint.
The music is reliably bonkers, and, as you say, the sound quality is, as ever, astounding.
Oh........Yeah, right enough.

Looking forward to this one arriving!
Banish impatience..................that's what Tidal is for!

Usually Dave I would agree yes but I'm in full Ryder Cup mode at the moment so... happy to wait, but only until Monday!

This is sounding great. Tidal. First track is a belter. I've only got "Go Go Boots" by these guys. Should explore some more.

Sampling this but also asked for advise from others as I will not want to sample it all in once...

If you like Clapton, this is a must have. "Live In San Diego - with JJ Cale" is the best live performance of his that I've heard. His guitar seems to have something a bit special, hard to say, but maybe he's gee'd along with the rest of the band & guest JJ Cale, the band includes Derek Trucks, Doyle Bramhall & Robert Cray, say no more !!!
Buying tip for downloaders - HighResAudio have it in 24/48 @ £13GBP The others have it in 24/96 but the price is a lot higher.
