In reference to your excellent Frankie Ballard review, I've noticed recently that some new releases are only 30-40 minutes long like our beloved records.
Are they taking the approach of the demo - well it's my debut so let's see how it goes. Bruno Mars' debut comes in at 35 minutes.
The exception is Neil Young's Le Noise (obviously not a debut by him) and it's only 38 minutes. I was really getting into his folk metal guitar distortions and the album was finito !
When I purchase a CD I'm looking for more than 35 minutes. I'm conditioned to the standard 50+ minutes.
Just a pet peeve that I wanted to get off my chest. Sorry, MH.

no problem Steve
I totally agree.
Seems to me like most country albums fall short timewise.
Was surprised that Paisley came in at over an hour
looks like this one should be an ep.
maybe it's marketed as such, haven't seen the price
