This is a great album, the production is well done, and Joe's writing is very well done.  This is some solid rock/blues - the bass player is great.  Some of the standouts for me on this one were "Souls in Ruin", "Midnight Fever", "The Weatherman", and the electric version of "Killing Ground".  I highly recommend seeing JRE live - they are super!

I stumbled upon the guys in a bar in Austin earlier this year and they were absolutely incredible. Bass, Drums, Guitar and Vocals all top notch.  The sound at the live show was really excellent...  and the CD is just as good.  I'm looking forward to seeing them again and hearing more great music from these guys.

btw... CD Baby got the order out very fast.

I saw these guys on stage in Toulouse (France) before the Chuck-Berry part... Oh my ! they rocked sooo much . Hearty singer, tremendous player, hollow walking bass... and one of the best drummers i ever saw on stage (i had the chance to congrats him live after the concert !)
The concert sounded silent, weird, when they left place to let old-chuck enter. It was great to see him... but all the brilliance was gone (rithm and chorus also).

When i got back home, I ordered first and last CD of JRE (not the Java Runtime Env. ;-) ) on CD Baby and it was fairly good delivered ! Damn i love that !

I kinda prefer this last CD because of recording quality -- and maybe punch. But when i think about it, Way Beyond is also a tremendous one -- more blues. But i like this (new) drummer style, i have to admit.
