Anybody got his new album, "Devil's Playground"? It's very good. The songs "Scream" and "Body Snatcher" wouldn't have been out of place on "Rebel Yell". There are a couple of Gen X sounding tunes and a couple that sound like, er, early Neil Diamond type folky tunes.

Seen Billy on The Tonite Show with Jay Leno a couple times this year. He looks and sounds good.

I have it. It's great...I agree that there are shades of Gen X and "Rebel Yell" on some of the songs. I've also been able to see him live twice in the last couple of years and he's one of my favorite live acts ever.
