steve's not playing on those first albums, if that's what you meant. He will be on the next one that will be out next year. And I like those tunes much more than the earlier albums. Listen to their daytrotter session for instance (or track down some other recent live sets).

Daytrotter session?

Hmm I have to be a member..u have a DL link?

Nevermind, fixed a free membership trial.

Sounds awesome, Love it!

Terms of service have changed at Daytrotter and now membership will cost $2 a month. Seems like some positive changes will arise out of this, such as the availability of all their sessions in lossless format, and also streaming in HD video of all new ones. :)

Nice link. Thx!

Fuck off will'yah !!
