If only I had money
Hopefully I can still buy the LP in the summer.

[majororgan]

yeah, same...this looks sick but I'm kinda broke right now.

[mrstripe]

Woah awesome. A nice surprise!

[VMWhelan]

Can't wait to finally hear a studio version of Calf in Pasture. I wonder what it's like...

[feedback]

Ordered!

I don't really listen to many of Phil's bootlegs so I'm not familiar with the song.

*excited*

What's the verdict on the new song?

It's a bit weird actually, it starts out very MOR-ish, with very 'conventional' little guitar fills, and then some distorted guitar on the chorus, then it turns into country music again, then the distorted, but not really, chorus again, then it's over. It's only 1 minute 40 seconds long, and Phil sounds a bit bored (laid back?), like the vocals are only a rehearsal. For me it doesn't seem to have the intensity of the acoustic performances. I'd say it's a non-essential version.

Bummer. I'm looking forward to a listen, but sounds like a bummer.
