i still havnt heard the chris robinson album(the new one) any good?

[PrazAngel]

Yes, This Magnificient Distance, the 2nd CD by Chris and the New Earth Mud is a very solid record. It's pretty mellow compared to the stuff he was doing the Crowes and really showcases Chris's voice. I think it's a more well-rounded effort than the first one. In fact I just listened to it a few days ago and was thinking how good the band sounded and how fine a record it really is.

I don't know if you heard this or not, but Chris scrapped the fall tour with NEM and kind of went on a 'personal hiatus'. There is speculation that the crowes are getting back together but no confirmations yet.

As a whole, I really dig both Robibnson bros. solid efforts but together the whole is much greater than the sum of it's parts. Still I wouldn't miss a show by either of them!

If you'd like I can hook you up with a live NEM show? send me a PM if you're interested.

yeah the NEM has chris in a slightly new direction but keeping in touch with his roots--very tasty
