I really liked his last album 26 Notes, 12 Letters (and it is the only Mason album that I actually play) and I really wish he'd come out with full albums of new material.

Agreed, but it sounded like he was done with releasing anything after 26/12 so at least it's something, even if it's not really what we want.

I guess that's my frustration with FM in the bigger picture, is that they've decided they know what we want and they clearly don't, but oh well, won't win that fight.

Really 26/12 was such a fresh and amazing album from him, really wished he had kept up with that.

There are sadly so few FM members that are producing the music that the fans want. Really only perhaps Lindsey, Jeremy, Billy and Dave Walker who are even trying.

It's funny... I thought the knock against him while in Traffic was that he didn't really jam with the other guys but was sort of an on his own solo self contained composer.
