His album is not the best, imo. The mastering is too "in your face" and squashes the best thing about his live sound: the dynamics. He's got the crappy Black Keys mastering that has already ruined their sound. It is harsh and just gives you a headache listening to it. I still have hope for him...as long as he stays in the blues/rock lane and doesn't try to trend-ride the corny pop/rnb stuff that a couple LP cuts hint at.
