Riffhard Run don't walk to get the new Toots and the Maytalls disk "True Love". It is unbelievably great! I mean shit brothers and sisters your pal Riffy even digs the tune with No Doubt on it! The Jeff Beck cut is called "54-46 Was My Number" and it just slays me every time I put that bastard on! Clapton comes up strong again on this disk. He helps out the legendary "Pressure Drop" and plays some sweet chops. Keith plays and sings on "Careless Ethiopians" and he sounds brilliant! His voice is in great shape and he sings sweeter than he has in some time. Everyone's favorite red headed stoner/stranger,Willie Nelson offers up his own tune,"Still is Still Moving to Me" and Toots manages to put his own particular Toots stamp on it with perfect results. Get it my friends! Get it now! Put that puppy on,crank it to 11,pack a bowl with some fine greenbud ganga,pop open a Red Stripe and enjoy! Thank me later!

crb69 Excellent CD I must agree. I picked it up recently and am quite surprised. I like it better than Toots' older originals. I think he sounds more polished and less raspy on the new one...nice refreshing new tunes for a change!!!!

Everything mentioned earlier is true. When you first hear Keef singing his octave is so high you don't know it's him at first. Clapton is great (on 2 trax) along with Jeff Beck and Ryan Adams almost sounds like Traci Chapman! LOL
