I'm really enjoying "Rainy Day Music" so far. I wasn't completely devastated when Mark had to split the band and the new arrangements musically and vocally in his abscence I've thought blended in quite well. If you liked "Hollywood Town Hall" and "Sound of Lies" I think you'll dig "Rainy Day".

As for Steve Earle i think everything he touches is gold so I'm pretty tainted there. I've even got to speak to him a few times after gigs he is a great guy. One of Steves mentors was the late great Townes Van Zant. Check his music out too!
