I was just wondering if there were any G Love fans out there. His new album is sans Special Sauce is now out and it features the Avett Brothers. It's quite good from what I've heard so far.

I used to be a big G. Love fan. I don't listen to him near as much as I used to. I didn't even know he had a new album out and just happened to come across it earlier today. I am pretty impressed too! From what I've heard so far, this is a pretty big departure for him. More rootsy, folksy and a little country-ish even. I read that the Avetts produced it. Kind of makes sense after hearing it. Definitely looking forward to giving this some more listens. I'm going to see him in a few weeks and much more looking forward to it now.
I dig him. Met him a few times, pretty cool guy. Havent heard the new one yet, except for the paul simon cover, which I liked.

Same here. I kind of lost touch with him over the years. When I read a review on his new album and saw the Avetts were involved, it piqued my interest. And as I said, I really like this album.

The Velvet Underground cover of Pale Blue Eyes is even better.
Is milk and cereal on this album? Thought I read that somewhere. Id imagine its completely reworked if it is.

No. It's a complete different song called Milk and Sugar. I guess homeboy likes his milk. Was Milk and Cereal ever on an album? I know I used to have it on a collection of songs of his, but it was from years and years ago when I used to dl stuff from Kazaa.

It was never on an "official" album.
