He's going to be on tour throughout the rest of the year, so unless he's releasing this album in the next couple of weeks, I doubt it's coming this year. What a crock.

I was underwhelmed with “Lake by the Ocean”. It grew on me but is still among my least favorite singles by him (all the singles from the last album are among my least favorite singles by him). I think this will join that group. Doesn’t sound bad but not getting me particularly excited either.

Lake by the Ocean has become one of my favorites of his. It set a mood every time.
Anywho, when do we get the full song? I'm liking what I'm hearing so far.

At 2:58 this is his shortest single ever, but I like it. Also hoping the album is released around February and not next Summer.

www.billboard.com/articles/columns/hip-hop/8478403/maxwell-announces-new-album-night-shameMaxwell announced a new album titled Night and dropped the smooth serenade “Shame” on Friday (Oct. 5). The suave jam, which Maxwell describes as a modern love song, will appear on the third album in his R&B trilogy. The new album is due in 2019, and is preceded by blackSUMMERS’night (2016) and BLACKsummers’night (2009). The 45-year-old Grammy Award-winning artist first announced the single Tuesday (Oct. 2) on social media. The clip shows letters from the song’s album cover floating around the frame. “SHAME • single vamp • from the forthcoming conclusion to the #BLACKSUMMERSNIGHT trilogy #NIGHTiscoming,” the singer wrote on Instagram. He followed it up with five similar videos in the days surrounding its release.

While I'm happy we are getting this album, however, I'm afraid once this is released, we aren't getting another album from him in a long time.

MESS. The vinyl re-issue lists "Everything" instead of "Everwanting" and the digital download only has the first 6 songs. Sounds great though and the booklet is cool.

For me, it depends on how the third installment turns out. The 8 years between Now and Black and then Black and Summers were excruciating, but then I didn't like Summers much so I'm not anticipating Night as much as I usually anticipate his albums. Unless this one is vastly better than the last, I don't think I would care if he disappears for a lengthy period of time again.

I've grown to love Summers. I actually play it more than Black. I love the live band feel on lots of the tracks.

Yes, I use a lot of Summers tracks more because they are a bit more upbeat despite Black being the strongest of the two.
My favorite track of the trilogy comes from Summers. Ugh, Of All Kind
