I've a new one posted on my soundcloud page (as listed below).
 
It's a gin induced light hearted romp regarding the wonders of the cosmos and life in general. 
 
Not for those at the end of their tether:-)

That is very, very very, very good!!  Sort of felt like I was stumbling down Bourbon St after reading Tennessee Williams and Sarte.  And that's a good thing. 
 
On the other hand, I am a psychologist, so if you need to talk  . . . . .

Hi Yorolpal, because you've been kind to me in the past, and because you've been forgiving toward my rants lol...I thought I'd better have a listen.
 
Beautiful mix, not a jazz fan...but I can't complain about the soulful sounds.  Vocals remind me of Leonard Cohen, and Songs of Love and Hate.  Also a little Adrian Belew on King Crimson's The Construcktion of Light.
 
Nice :)

Just remember Ben, ol pal...you never have to be kind to me (or anyone else for that matter) when critiquing their work. Say what you will and let the chips fall where they may. Screw us if we can't take it.

Love your stuff.
 
I like the out-in-front vocals. I might dial the bass down a tad in the mix, and I also wonder, does your piano contain many notes down there where the bass is playing? If so, you might nip a few bass piano notes out of there occassionally, so the bass is a little clearer. Just my .02 pesos. It's really pretty good the way it is.
 
You went for a instrumental sax solo right after the first verse. At that point, I kind of wanted to hear more lyrics, so I could get into the creepy vibe that was being created - then solo it up.
 
Original, fairly brilliant, very creative, and kudos for not being a cookie-cutter songwriter.
 
cheers,
-Tom
