Pretty good. Certainly feels stronger than anything on the "Road" or "Detroit Stories." Considering he's 77 and these are all a bunch of old guys, it way exceeded my expectations.

Liked this much better than "Black Mamba," although I'm not so sure about vulture imagery in a video filled with old farts who are near death.

I enjoyed "Detroit Stories" / "Breadcrumbs", but "Road" is god awful.

Both new songs are strong.

I didn't care for Road the first time I listened to it, but it kind of grew on me, same way Detroit Stories did.

Neither are albums I'm probably ever going to be, "I want to listen to THAT album today", and I agree, Road does sound like a bit of a step down in places.

Very curious about the new album. Really don't know what to expect from a bunch of 70 year olds.
