Personally, I love the new album, but I'm also in the minority that really liked Momofuku. Very few albums nowadays am I able to listen to every single track on, & this is one of those.

If you have a chance to see Elvis this tour, do it. I saw the show last night and it was amazing.

I'm looking to see him in St. Paul July 4. However if you click the buy tickets link there's no where to buy tickets. Am I just missing something major?

I saw Elvis last night in Cary, NC (suburb of Raleigh). Band includes such Americana notables as Jim Lauderdale. No drums but a violin and an accordion.
So, the set is heavy on the new stuff and albums like Almost Blue and King of America. But he didn't ignore the classics, including such chestnuts as "Alison", "Peace, Love, and Understanding," and "Blame it on Cain."
Inspired covers of "Mystery Train" and "Friend of the Devil."
No opening act, no intermission, one extended encore. Elvis and the guys were on stage for just over two hours. Well worth the time, well worth the money.

Secret, Profane & Sugarcane is definitely one of my favorite albums of the year so far.
It's one of those records that you can listen to at any time, you don't have to be in a specific kind of mood to enjoy it.
