If there’s one thing I will never do, it’s having my dancing committed to any long lasting media.  ;)

I've cycled through this about 3 times as of now and its decent.  I think its on the same level as NEW which isnt a bad thing, but its going to take awhile.  I need about 10 more listens before I can make a definite conclusion.

I'm at about 6 listens now where the songs are becoming familiar and its a good album.  I will say 'Despite Repeated Warnings' is easily the best song on the disc and one of Paul's best ones he's done in years.

I’m still liking it. I put it in my top 5 Paul solo albums in a post a few weeks ago and I think I’d keep it there. I do think it’s his best produced/ arranged album in a long time.

Its still in my car, but I haven't listened to it since I last posted.  I'm a bit bored with it to be honest.  Probably going to be one of those Driving Rain type CD's for me.  I like it, but don't love it.

I love it all. Maybe it's a nostalgic "gee I'm so proud hes still busting out some albums" more than anything. But honestly I love Fuh You.  It makes me laugh. Like the Beatles putting "tit tit tit" in a song or something like that and daring someone to notice. Hes "getting away with it" again.  Honestly nothing is going to be better then what he has done. So I'm just sitting here clapping for the old chap.  party2

Well, I thought I was gonna review this album by now.

I still hope to but I think I have to make a trip to the liquor store first.  I need to wet my whistle before I start trying to whistle along to Paul's songs on this album.

I saw a video by a millennial who totally worships this album.  There's quite a few other people who do, too.

I'm an old hippie so I need to listen in a mind-altered state.  The risk of that is I might tune in and drop out.  I don't know.

If you find yourself at Station III, go back. You’ve dropped out a wee bit far.  ;)

I put it away.  Its boring to me.  The slower stuff isn't memorable and theres to much of it.

I think it's good. It's not the best Paul has done, but it's an enjoyable album with hooks.

PS: My current overseas trip is turning into an Egypt Station fest as Spotify and Youtube are banned in Iran, and I didn't bring much music with me. But, I have Egypt Station! :D

I’m still liking it and I stand by ranking it as one of Pauls top solo albums. That said I’m not listening to it that much anymore. But I suppose I don’t put on whole albums from any artist all that often anymore. My attention span must be shrinking with age.

Well, if that's the only thing shrinking, you're in pretty good shape then.  ;D

I tried to give this another listen last night.  I had to turn it off halfway through the first song, "I don't know."

I'm not giving up.  I'll try again and again and again for as long as I live.  I promise this.
