Apparently this will be available as a single track by track download, too.  If I understand this correctly the MMJ download would be available on Monday, February 2, for that day only (until the entire album is available).

I did a Google search on 'El Caporal' and this was the first hit:

Apparently they enjoy Mexican cuisine (note the restaurant locations).  Just plain funny.

No worries, I think someone posted it way before I did, too.  Guess we're all excited to hear that track!

Damn I missed the Bon Iver song.  I really like the Grizzly Bear song that's on there today and the Fiest/Gibbard song was great too.  This is gonna be sooo good.

It has been in Hikes Point for years.  It has pretty good food.  I used to frequent there.

I just recently received the entire album..
For those who don't want to purchase the whole thing, but only want El Caporal, I could upload just that song onto a link, then you can download it at your leisure, instead of waiting till the 17th.

Would anyone want this?

For lack of a better word, it's:

They seriously have never wrote a song that sounds at all like this..as the title may suggest, it has a little spanish flava.

lyric excerpt:
"slide...thru your life
straight...like a knife
sway...when you dance
play a game...in your pants"

:D

Anybody listen to the Spoon song today?  Awesome.  Great way to kick off disc two which looks to be a little more upbeat than disc one.  (Just a guess.)  From what I heard of disc one this is going to be amazing, just amazing.

My order status just changed to 'shipping soon'!

Slightly worrying reviews in the UK press - 2/5 in Q & 3/5 in Uncut. I don't really care for Q but Uncut is a good magazine.

Nevermind, it's the Jacket + it's for charity  :)

You couldve just bought El Caporal on iTunes though, no?? Although Im guessing you probably listen to a few of the other bands on there

I like a lot of the artists/bands featured so I'm sure I'll like a few of the tracks, hopefully more. Like I said, it's for charity + I'm still looking forward to it, just those 2 reviewsd have lowered my expectations a little.

Awesome. I've been waiting for it to get onto youtube. Don't think I don't want to help raise funds for the sick people, but I have very little money right now, especially considering that I'm going to Chicago in a few weeks to see Morrissey. As soon as I get some cash, I'm going to buy it.
