Has anyone listened to Jak's solo album? What did you think of it?

I haven't listened to it for a while, but it is good, and I do like it. What's even better than Jak's solo album is a Jak solo gig :D

This is just my personal opinion but if you like The Bee Gees or The Scissor Sisters then it's a goer :)

I've listened to a couple of his songs on his myspace page. This is the link for his page:
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu ... D=36695478
(you don't have to be a member of myspace to access this page)
I quite like these songs. Funnily enough i ordered his album off Play4me a couple of days ago for $28.85 (i could of got it cheaper at Jb-Hifi online, but after the messing around with the signed copy of Truth, Beauty and a Picture of You taking a very long time to get posted and everything else, i decided to pay the couple of extra dollars to buy from the personally tried and trusted play4me).
Because it's not in stock, it's gonna take 2-3 weeks to get posted cause it has to be ordered from elsewhere first. I also bought The Olive Branch's two singles as well (they were going for $9.14 each), cause curiosity got the better of me and i decided to buy it...they are going to take 2-3 weeks as well :? But that's to be expected when ordering Independent releases that are no-longer in print.

I once ordered it from a dutch site, but after 6 weeks they mailed me that they couldn't get their hands on it. After I messaged Jak about it (through myspace) he told me I could just order via his website. And I still haven't. Although I've intended to order it for over a year now :S

I love Jak's album!
When I got it, I played it non-stop for two days, and it was the only thing I listened to for about a month.

I also got my friend Kate a copy of it for Christmas '07, which I ordered via snail mail (the address is on Jak's website) and Jak was nice enough to add a "Merry Christmas Kate" and an autograph to the cover.

Kate nearly hugged me to death when she opend it. :mrgreen:
