Butch Walker - Stay Gold (August 26, 2016) Album • Page 16

I'm leaning towards Ludlow and Irish Exit. The verses of Irish Exit kinda remind me of the Marvie song Lefty actually

 

Wilder in the Heart: An Interview With Butch Walker

This interview/write-up is so great. Captures what's unique about Butch and his relationship with his fans. Highly recommended read.

 

I only listened to this album yesterday but goodness do i love it

 

I've spun my vinyl copy every few days since getting it. This one just doesn't get old for me.

 

This is different from the album version huh!

 

Is it? Sounded the same to me. Maybe I'm missing something

RECORD STORE DAY - SpecialRelease

 

yessssssssss

 

Someone needs to buy this and rip it. I will look for it, but I doubt my store will have one.

 

Yessss, I want this!!!

 

I will be looking to buy this but I don't know how to rip stuff.

 

In the video he posted you can see that it comes with a digital download. Ripping may not be nessecary.

 

eating a bit of crow here but this is a lot better than i expected

 

I hate being that guy, but there's definitely some tracks on Cassette Backs that I wish saw a final version on Stay Gold than other tracks that made the album

 

I don't know that I'd have removed any, but maybe added a couple.
I think It's Gotta Get Easier would have made a great first track before blasting into Stay Gold. Sort of a transition from Afraid of Ghosts. Jamie is awesome. Bad Friends would have gone pretty great on there too.

Did We Ever Really Fall In Love is interesting as it's clearly the song that the music was stolen from to make Record Store, though Record Store is better.

Roll Me Out is also great, but I don't think it would have fit the album very well

 

Where were you able to find this, if you don't mind my asking? I'm in Massachusetts and I've struck out everywhere I've tried to find it. Buying it on eBay for a ridiculous price kinda defeats the whole purpose.....

 

I don't think any of these songs would have fit on Stay Gold, with the possible exception "Jamie." "Bad Friends" isn't good enough to be on the record, and I think the rest of the totally new tracks have more of an Afraid of Ghosts feel. Glad these songs are separate, personally.

 

"Jamie" is so good.

 

opening track and Jamie are the two I most dug on first listen

 

I really love the opener. Don't think it would quite work on Stay Gold, but I wouldn't mind if he did more stuff in that style in the future.

 

I do agree that if it was going to be on the album it would need more tinkering/changes, definitely feels like an unfinished song of sorts

 

Revisiting this record for eoty list time. Still so great. Think my top five (in order) would be East Coast Girl, Stay Gold, Mexican Coke, Descending, Can We Just...

Seems pretty different to most people's opinions in here.

Like every song apart from Irish Exit, which is just okay imo.

 

I love every song on this record for different reasons. Probably his most consistent, for me.
