I hope Ed doesn’t quit. He is one of the best songwriters. I love how he doesn’t let his age affect him. Dude is almost 60 and still sounds like he did in his 30s

At a recent concert he stated he planned to continue until he could no longer do so. Lots of writing in the works

Ed Roland is the voice of a generation. His songs literally speak to you and touch your soul. Music to me, means I will feel happy and forget the horrible things for a short time. Ed does that for me. I was lucky enough to see this recent tour on LongIsland and it was outstanding. The new music is as great as the classic Collective Soul catalog. I am a life long fan and never miss a Chance to see Collective Soul live. Glad to hear Ed say, they will never retire.

They are the way they are because they inflect a little bit of their faith from their upbringing. I believe their fans know that and if they don’t then the light shines in them and they wake up. We need more of that frankly.

When I was a kid I and would catch Collective Soul on the radio I figured the group were Aussies (dunno why), I had no idea these guys were from Georgia until recently and now hearing Mr. Roland using his speaking voice makes his origins in Georgia much more obvious. Listening here also clued me in that my local station, WJRR, was the first big radio that picked them up, this is awesome!

The first time I ever heard Collective Soul outside of shine was in 1997 I was driving down the road in a friends car, and they blasted simple off the blue album. To this day, I listen to that song for blast, and I can’t get enough of it such a talented group.

He's so smart, really he's got the whole package and the music world NEEDS his work. Ed you are brilliant in every way!!! See you in December my friend

Ed and Collective Soul are on a roll! I've known for a couple of months now that they had two albums in the can and plan to record yet another one in January 2023. This a far cry from when fans had to wait six years between Rabbit and See What You Started by Continuing, and four years between it and Blood. I think an album release even every other year for the foreseeable future would satisfy most fans.

Collective Soul is a phenomenal band that I have followed from their beginning. Shine started the whole thing rolling and it went from there. The band is getting on in age but they act and sound like they just started. I saw them on a couple of shows cover a song by the Gap Band called "You Dropped a Bomb on Me". Did they ever record that on any album? They kicked ass on that tune. If they did record it can you please tell me what album.

@Prof_Jeff Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, there is no documentation that they ever recorded this song. All evidence indicates several live performances only (in concerts or on TV).

Well I don't care if you are not the most technical guitar player Ed Roland. There are many youtube shredding guitar heroes and I choose your not so technical songs with soul rather than their mathematically perfect, robotic, technical sounds... I wouldn't even call it music, music has to have soul.

Love this band but these last two albums have been so meh. Are they running out of ideas and using mediocre old songs? Why? They played that Bob Dylan song live and it was so awful. Where’s the riffs!?

@teri6353 Жыл бұрын

It seems ever since they kicked Joel Kosche out of the band, they have been going downhill. I've seen them 4 times with the last time being with the current lineup and I just couldn't get into the music. There was no passion in the music.

@mj1234321 11 ай бұрын

Haven't followed them much or bought any of their new albums since they fired Joel, but I do feel like they lost something in this latest incarnation of the band. Saw them live way back with Ross Childress on lead guitar and Shane Evans on drums, and then years later with Joel Kosche on lead guitar and Cheney Brannon on drums. Both were awesome shows. Haven't been inclined to go out and see them, no offense to Jesse Triplett, but it just killed the joy for me knowing how they kicked Joel out of the band.

@LRM5195 11 ай бұрын

@@mj1234321 Ross was definitely the riff master and Joel was solid as well. I don’t blame them for kicking Ross out even though I miss his guitar work but what’s the story with Joel?

@mj1234321 11 ай бұрын

@@LRM5195 I wish I knew, can only read between the lines based on Joel's statements. Basically it sounds like Ed didn't like Joel trying to have too much creative input or credit so he had the band's manager call Joel and fire him via telephone, then basically lied in the official band statement saying that Joel was moving on in the world of music and the band supported him, which Joel later said was bs.

@LRM5195 11 ай бұрын

@@mj1234321 Damn I’ll have to look more into that, that’s crazy. Ed probably owns the whole band so I’m not surprised. Even his own brother started his own band, probably to get his own ideas out there
