I guess you expected it since you're Jack's ghostwriter. How is that song you recorded with Jack and the violinist named Kaitlyn going?

Another 5-star review, from Antiquiet:
http://www.antiquiet.com/reviews/2012/0 ... underbuss/
There has never been an album quite like this kaleidoscope of disciplined soul & prowess, or more of a promising beginning down a new musical path for the nucleus of Third Man. We can psychoanalyze the road, the reasons and the rationale, we can marvel like stargazers at the Wonka-meets-Welles architecture or we can just spin the black circle and celebrate.

Because goddamnit, Jack’s done it again.
It also says that this album "transcends all [of his other bands] with a razor-sharp
singular vision and staggering versatility that defies any of his group designs."

Really excellent review there, from Johnny Firecloud - exuberant and powerfully descriptive.
That review has me more excited about this album than anything else I've read so far.

Might be a good idea to start a separate topic for all of the Blunderbuss Reviews.

Best thing Jack's ever done.

He has matured into a master artist... this is a great time to be a fan because you already have a huge history of live and recorded things to compare and it only gets better
