at one point in these notes, you were wondering outloud (for us:) which direction you should go as you record next time...eg, full band or solo, a'la Speed of Hope. Well, as I read that album title, I felt like I outta' sign in and tell ya' something. I really, REally like the Speed of Hope. Alot. Your others that I've heard, I like, too but Speed of Hope is special and after I got it, it didn't leave the player in my truck for a looong time. I heard you play, then met and got cd (signed, of course:) in a small show you did Jan or Feb, 2015 (I think), in western West Virginia as you toured on your own. Still feel quite fortunate to have learned of and made it to that one :) DennyB
You have alot of question marks in this post, so I choose to interpret that as asking for feedback (if I'm wrong -- well, too late :) ). I love the Sleeping Dogs record, but that was a "band record" ... you play some of those songs solo but the songs are really (to me, anyway) "full band songs". If you're planning to tour solo or solo-ish for awhile, make *that* record. Personally, my favorite Plank moments are you solo, or you and MOC, or you and Scrappy -- all acoustic. My vote is -- make that record. Can't wait to hear it -- I'll be listening on Patreon in the meantime.
