I opened the copy I got from my local shop last night and played it. It was really better than I thought it would be. Based on only hearing a few individual songs before, I was expecting it to be just OK. But when I listened to it last night in it's entirety, it has a flow and feeling that I wasn't expecting.

Agreed. I actually considered not buying it but am really glad I did. A gorgeous album and amazing vinyl pressing.

Yup. This will be played regularly in our house. No doubt about that.
The
soundtrack to Sean Penn's new film "Flag Day" shows once again that
Eddie Vedder can always be relied upon, whether with his band Pearl Jam
or, as in this case, solo. Together with the musicians Glen Hansard and
Cat Power, with whom he has often worked together in the past, and his
17-year-old daughter Olivia Vedder, he has created a series of
breathtakingly beautiful songs. Personally, I didn't approach the record
with particularly high expectations, so I was very pleasantly
surprised. The album is light, perhaps a bit melancholy and dreamy now
and then, so that you are quite quickly drawn into the tender folk
sounds of the father-daughter duo. For me, it's an absolutely
well-functioning and coherent album all around. I had to listen to it
twice in a row because the atmosphere coupled with Eddie's strong voice
totally captivated me. By the way, REM's hit "Drive" is covered here and
even though I'm basically not a fan of cover songs at all, this one is
absolutely successful.
My conclusion: I haven't seen the film
and therefore can't judge how the songs work as film music, but I'm one
hundred percent sure that the album can stand and be appreciated
absolutely independently of it.

Received it yesterday...it does have the Made in Germany sticker.
Yep, same UPC.
Thanks!
10C offered to replace if I send pics of the record after I destroy it…just a bummer to wait so long, but glad they’re able to help.
