It means they recorded 17 songs. Some are covers, some are Jimmy tunes - it's a pretty diverse mix.RAGTOP wrote:what does he mean by recording 17 songs? Is it the usual where him and Mac write 4 songs and the rest are covers?

It's not a mostly-Jimmy record by any means, but then there hasn't been one of those in several decades.

a) He's always done cover songs (or co-written songs) so I wouldn't read much into that. Sure, more of the songs used to be his, but he's gettin' older and probably spends less time writing. I would if I had his money.changingchannels wrote:Key Lime Lee wrote:It means they recorded 17 songs.

b) Not sure how you can say a country album contributes to "the end". I think it was just an avenue to explore creatively for Jimmy.
c) the CRB situation was just circumstantial - they've always recorded around this time of year, but this year the Mayers had touring plans. Since JB was leaning country, I think he saw it as an opportunity to integrate some great country players. But still, a lot of the CRB was there - Mac, Utley, Doyle, Guth, Ralph...
d) Stadium tour is probably our own damned faults for bitching about not enough tickets. He's not about to play more shows at this point in his career because he wants to spend more time with family, so, to him, stadium tours probably seem like a great way to satisfy a greater number of fans for the same amount of touring.
I'm sure JB will make it clear when he's had enough. I'm not sure this stuff means anything more than what it is.
Heaven on Earth
Try the Concert Trading Forum. If somebody there has it, they'll likely trade you either for a show that you have or for blank CD's.jbfins wrote:I don't usually do this, and I don't even know if this is appropriate, but I'll ask again anyway. If anyone knows how I might come into possession of a recording of the concert last week, please let me know. Thanks.
