Almost early-Elvis (Presley, not Costello) rock & roll with some rockabilly tossed in, don't exactly expect "Black Keys" rock from McP on this release. Which is just fine, as the sound (not '50-era lo-fi, but not exactly 2015 sounding, either) fits the feel and material quite well. As for Rounder's pressing, it's the second winner of late ("This Is Shelby Lynne" being the other I've had experience with), being quiet and without defect. As of this writing, this is a "pre-order" which is strange, as it's been available in local record shops for weeks.
