I don't own the first one...is it one of those albums you just have to have? I listen to the song previews on iTunes and it just doesn't pull me in, but obviously those are just 30 second clips...is it one of those albums that any self-respecting music fan just has to own?
It's close to being a must have but not quite there. And it's something I recommend listening all the way through. It definitely has a certain mood to it that gets lost if you throw it on shuffle with other artists. And I actually like the newer one better than his first one. Similar vibe but seems more polished to me.
