I've listened to "Based On A True Story" for the last 4 years, it doesn't get old or tired. My favorite tracks are: Wandering Eye, Roady, and Hope. Everything is beautifully written and performed by some very talented musicians. Now that I've written about it, I'll be playing it again. Turn the lights down, grab a drink, get in the mood.

awesome

the best album I've purchased from iTunes and one of my favorite albums of all time. good from start to finish, can't get enough of the drop

Support these guys and don't buy pirate versions of their music, support these guys by buying from iTunes s owe can keep their music coming. Keep up the great work FFD!
