So I saw one copy sitting on the shelf at Target yesterday... and I decided to buy it. I know it's kind of like an "accidental" release, so Im debating on wether or not I want to open it.

I was reading somewhere on here that overall- its kind of a rushed album, not up to par for Mos. Given that it was his last contractual obligation to Geffen, I can see why one might not put forth the best effort possible.

But in contrast, I read the single "undeniable" got a "grammy nod"- whatever the hell that is. So obviously the single has to be good.

What's your opinion? Should I crack it open and give it a listen or just hang on to it and wait for the next spring release?

or maybe even just download a few of the songs...? Im not sure.

anybody know exactly how many copies were shipped? I read the soundscan and it said 11K of them were sold. Any idea what people might pay online in the future for it?
