For some reason, the digital release is a single track instead of being split up like on the physical release. Anyone know what's up with that?

This is definitely making my balls tingle. The vocals have the deftness of both Mel Torme and Fela Kuti. The piano pulsates in a way that brings McCoy Tyner to mind. The orchestration is fabulously lush and makes me think Gil Evans. That’s a lot of name dropping but it’s still very unique. Without any hesitation I can right off the bat call this 5/5 unassailable highest praise and the other language of deification I’m known for. This is ****ing great!!!
