QuoteIt's actually available now for purchase and download and yimyames.com.  A nice surprise a day early.

thats pretty sweet you can listen to the whole album there without even buying it too.

does CC or anyone know if you'll be able to listen to the tracks like this on the website until the physical album comes out or is it just this week or something?

Duh, now it seems pretty obvious that the artwork is just the handwriting on plain white background.  Not sure what I was thinking.

I hope I get the full CD with packaging and not just the disc slid in the vinyl.
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

...album sounds great. I think the best thing about it is the song order, its perfect. It just gets better as it goes on.

All Things Must Pass sounds legendary.

I'm listening to it right now and it's great. Such a soft sweet sound...thanks Yim Yames 8-)

I'm not sure if this has been posted... http://woodstockfas.org/newsyimyames.shtml

" We're beyond thrilled to announce that Jim James, lead singer of the mega-popular, arena-selling-out band "My Morning Jacket," has announced the upcoming release of a limited edition EP, with a portion of the proceeds coming to the Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary! The EP is a collection of George Harrison songs covered by Jim James (under the alias "Yim Yames"). They were recorded back in 2001 -- just a few days after Harrison's death -- and have been sitting in a vault ever since.

Both Jim and WFAS Director Jenny Brown happened to be in their common home town of Louisville when they met for the first time, and Jim was moved by WFAS's mission to rescue, protect and provide a voice for the most exploited and abused beings in the world -- farmed animals.

A vegetarian for ethical reasons, Jim thought the idea of this album as fundraiser for WFAS to be a perfect match. "I know this is something that George [Harrison] really believed in," he said, and that "George was all about treating all creatures equally and eating responsibly." With this summer being the 40th anniversary of the original Woodstock concert, it is fitting that a true proponent of peace and love be honored this way. "

Yeah, I thought the same.

Maybe the vinyl only will be available at record stores?

I've been trying to order the preorder for 45 minutes now.  On two different computers, using four different browsers and it won't take my money!  >:(

I guess I'll wait for it to be at Ear Xtacy.  They are carrying the vinyl, right?
