Great songs and sounds. Strong start with "Legalize It." "Ketchy Shuby" bumps and "Brand New Second Hand" is a great diss track. The bits of piano really enhance the musical layering. Tosh singing on "Till Your Well Runs Dry" rather than reggae styling is really interesting. Only track I didn't really like was Igziabeher.

Pour me a cup of mud, friend. The perfect album to listen to if the world has turned black and white and you are alone, solving the mystery of why your ex left you, why you drink alone, and what's for breakfast.
Tom's gravel and silk voice carries on - not near as serious as the previous album of his that was generated. I don't think I'll listen to this one as much but I did like "better off", "warm beer", "big joe" and a couple others.

Fulfillingness' First Finale
Stevie Wonder
I can't deny Stevie Wonder's talent (though this album didn't blow me away too much). He plays almost every instrument on all the songs. His obsessive and driven musical creation process results in great sounding music (but I hear he was hard to work with). He'd work for 12 hours on a song and then call back the studio musician at 2 AM to rework a song.
Boogie on Reggie Woman is lovely. As a Phish fan I was so happy to hear the original, what a fun surprise. "You Haven't Done Nothin" is also a great hit piece on Regan.
