RE: "What's That Sound" - tracks, cover art and release date
The other day Haley posted this on FB:

Fill in the blanks: My favorite song off 'What's That Sound?' is ____________ because __________!
I can't pick just one at this point, but I have been drawn to three a bit more than the rest: CFMWH, Sunny Afternoon, and TOTS. CFMWH is a great song and I have always loved her rendition -- a mostly quieter song that she sings beautifully and builds toward the end. TOTS is a great collab with Casey. Haley gets to sing different parts - lead, backing vocal, harmony -- and her voice just sparkles. Harry's guitar work is also top notch. Sunny Afternoon is a good old Kinks tune that Haley takes on with gusto. The song includes a bit of growl and a twinkling of the keys by Scott.
Favorites are subject to change. I have overplayed the singles she released earlier, for example, and I'm kind of letting those rest a bit now that the rest of the songs are out. Haley's vocal tone in parts of You Showed Me is just fantastic. Slezak loves the the "ya" in Boots -- I love the way she sings "...that you'll never get burned - ha!" Haley gives Oh! Darling some bite with her growls and wails. Let's Start is a fun dance tune that fits the 60s vibe. Somewhere in Between is a song that takes a while to sink in for me, but has lasting appeal. She spins off the Ennio Morricone spaghetti western sound, Tarantino style vibes, and spoken words ala' the Shangri-Las.

Don't know if I have a favorite, but when I heard Boots was going to be one of the covers I was meh until I heard it. Really like her version a lot. Fun.

I initially listened to TOTS the most. Then I gravitated towards You Showed Me. I find myself enjoying Sunny Afternoon, which sounds most like a PMJ number to me, and CFMYH as well.
The other song I have focused on is the bonus track, Let's Live for Today. I haven't hooked up my new CD player yet, so I listen to that in the car and find myself wanting to roll down the windows and share it with the world.

Just started listening to the record. Congratulations to John Burk. He did what others should have. Burk or someone else on the team brought out the best in Haley's voice. He should have produced "Listen Up!"
