also, Steven Hyden has written about Jacket in the past if anyone wants to revisit his work.

Some very base highlights:

- Uniform Distortion could have easily been a MMJ record. But MMJ records are just a longer process and he wanted to bang this one out.
- Waterfall PT2 is recorded, needs to be mixed. MMJ Live record is done, mixed, just needs artwork.
- Working on a Tennessee Fire 20th Anniversary set for 2019.

- band is NOWHERE close to done
- they're releasing something for the 20th anniversary of the Tennessee Fire

- the live album is mixed just needs cover art Jim is ready to finish it off

- the Waterfall second album just needs cover art and mixing and it's done

- they'll both be coming out, if this anniversary release is coming, I'd say by fall we should see one of these and Xmas or early spring for the other. With the Tennesee Fire anniversary edition coming out in Fall or Xmas 2019


Hahahaha oistheone we posted the same thing hahha SIR JYNXALOT

thanks y'all. I am definitely going to be listening later today.  3 releases coming out in next year makes me think it will be a while before original material gets recorded but that they could still tour in 2019

Pretty good interview overall. Jim did most of the talking which I loved. Very articulate on his feelings and views of society right now. I got the impression he was in a pretty good place right now personally.

Dude...this was so timely and beautiful. I am so happy for him that he stopped drinking, and went on that retreat. Happy that he is welcoming the prosperities of a new age. Mind blown by how clear and new and non-redundant he sounded. He sounds really happy 🤗

Makes me happy too!

Great interview!!! You can definitely tell in Jim's voice that he is in a good place, and even the guy interviewing him acknowledges that. Great to hear! Much happiness and more good vibes sent his way  :thumbsup:

Man, it seems like The Waterfall Part Deux and this live album have been 'in the can' or nearly there for about two years at this point.

My biggest take from this is his viewpoint on slamming Trump. He's right. Continually insulting him is only preaching to your choir. It does little to help the overall situation. I've been guilty, plenty of times. The light at the end of the tunnel will be lead by people like Steve Schmidt, Michael Bloomberg, and George Will. Lifelong conservatives who see the same things wrong as most liberals, but have some credibility with the right.
