It's great imo. I guess mellowing? It seemed pretty experimental at the time, definitely different from an STP album. I can remember buying the CD when it came out in 97 or 98, was in steady rotation for a long time.

It’s a great record - not well received at the time it was released though.

it's fantastic. you can really hear his Bowie obsession in much of his solo work.

I only recently found out that Sheryl Crow plays accordion on Lady, Your Roof Brings Me Down.

No kidding, Scott wrote Days of the Week for her but she wasn't feeling it so the song got recorded for Shangri La Dee Da instead.

Sweet. Interesting. Like way ahead of it's time back then. Yet does have that Bowie vibe. Super cool.

very cool interview with Jeff Gutt. It's not new, but I found it interesting.

Here’s to hoping they release the whole record. It’s been in the can since 2017.
