    Loved the James song. Kinda sounded like the love child of Midnight Oil and Flesh for LuLu. To my untrained ear that is…..ahhh the 80’s.

    I too really liked the new James single. Perhaps i’m biased as i own the cd. The cd is a return to form for the band who has been away for 7 long years. Looking forward to seeing the band at Turner Hall in Sep.

    As for the other single, not bad, but trying a little too hard with the moving on up like the Jefferson’s line.

    I thought Carlos Nino & Lil’ Sci was more interesting musically.
