WHAT DONAL GALLAGHER THINK ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Rory is now 27 years old, changed labels (to Chrysalis) and produced his fifth studio album himself. No changes in band members for a few years now, so these guys have some sort of good connection now. We still feel big Jazz influences in some of these songs ("Cross Me Of Your List")

AGAINST THE GRAIN ON SPOTIFY: Of all the albums studied so far (7) this is one of those that has had the least success with ''only'' 2,564,509 streams. No song reaches a million listens and only ''Bought And Sold'' and ''Out On The Western Plains'' stand out (very modestly) with 749,538 and 731,600 listens respectively. Is it necessary to mention the third on the podium (?): ''Ain't To Good'' which, with 196,538 streams, is only listened to confidentially...
