This is a bit off topic, but how do you think a collaboration with Caleb Followill (Kings of Leon) would be with Dan? The contrasting voices could be interested.

KoL has been off my radar since the second album, but I thought the first one was freaking fantastic.

I'm not sure if there is actually enough contrast between Caleb Followill's and Dan's voices to make it interesting. They both have the same sort of tattered edge to them.

What I would like to see, as long as we've gone a little off-topic would be an actual duet with Dan and Nicole Wray. Or, alternately/additionally, a duet with Dan and Sharon Jones.

if that song is the direction they (KoL) are goin in with the new album i would be happy to forgive them, i liked 1 n 2 and i loved a couple of tunes off 3. listened to that last one once n couldnt enjoy it. then it got overplayed. :S anyways, i think if this is the direction they go in, i got a feelin they will see how fickle some fans are coz people wont get it. we will but tourist crowd wont. it would be nice to hear some deep south blues spiritual shit hittin the big time though. after years of trying to get some decent recognition for playin it here in UK people always just go ah another blues band lol. anyways im ramblin, nice finds here!

I'm excited for this KOL album, I think (hope) it's gonna get them back on track. I got the impression from interviews that Caleb's a little disillusioned with the whole big-time thing and almost wants to ditch the fickle fans. I know when I saw them a year or two ago they raced through their singles, sexonfirenotionusesomebody all crammed into about 4 minutes lol. The dude-bro's and their girfriends were left just standing there confused and dizzy.

I don't think it's going to be good. They track titles have been released and if you youtube them you can see live performances of about 5 other songs and they are pretty "Only by the Night" ish. =/
