I have experience for getting pre ordered album few days before actual release day. That is actually nice thing to do for true fans who are buying music by pre ordering. Only makes sense to serve pre orders first, people pre ordering are putting their money out first after all. I wouldn't count on a...

Dammit, there has been months to organize shipping the way that customers will get their albums on a day when it is released. Just lousy planning if the albums don't come on friday or even day before to make sure people get them on time. Shame on record company! I still haven't got a confirmation th...

Maybe they had coffee in wintertime, icecream you can't life on that the whole year around?

Interesting week, will we get actual album before friday's last snippet titled as "Beautiful"??
I really do hope that pre orders does not mean something like shipping them on a release day which means albums are coming next week!!

Thanks, did not see this on Facebook. One huge mistake is that it says Rea's dad had a coffee bar, when it was ice cream place, well.....

Thank you for posting! Now there should be more of these in few weeks, waiting for to read them all. Edit. So far interesting read, many things he did not tell earlier about stories of songs on the album. Edit 2. Now statement that he never got the band he wanted is quite news to me. Also band Stuff...

Well, we shall see that when we have album in our hands, either way :) On that short studio interview Chris mentions something about New Orleans band on that Last Train track. But was it really some extra musicians or is it just Drinkwater? I guess we will know when we can read it from album covers?...

Think drums on Last Train ain't that bad than on some previous releases. Maybe they polished drum sound too much in the studio or something?

Breaking point should be this weeks snippet as last week it was release of Last Train.

And not too long for the release of the album

now drums are real, no drum machine. I think song is great as it is, even with Drinkwater

Last Train is easy to see as favorite for Chris himself, it is great.

Did not mean he should have been credited with finger snapping, ment that shame he did not involved on some hit song with his slide guitar, maybe even credits for writing slide parts and then royalties :) shame he did not play slide guitar with them and had his name on song credits, would be great h...

well now we all have shame he did not play slide guitar with them and had his name on song credits, would be great help on financial situtations to have royalties coming from a Queen hit
