Clocking in at 42 minutes and 45 seconds it doesn’t look like The Hip wasted any time on extended jams or epic adventures like we sometimes see in concert. And judging by the track listing, I think that Gord’s comments about “writing an album about love” may come true.

During our conversation at the Holiday Jam last Christmas he mentioned that many of the songs they were working on were originally destined for another Gord Downie solo record but the guys in the band liked them so much that they decided to make the Hip songs. Over at Hipbase a couple of astute fans pointed out that “Love(sic)” was a Gord D poem not included in any of his previous solo ventures.
