This record is excellent. The lyrics are excellent. The singing is excellent. It's high lonesome hill country harmony singing for the most part so if that's not your thing then you may have a hard time with this but you will get over that once you start focusing on how good the lyrics are. I do not have the lyric sheet/booklet that the site talks about because the label or somebody sent me a promo so all I have is a CD in a boombox in a corner of the dining room and whatever information I can cull from the web. I personally would not have opened an album with a quick blast of shrill male harmony because that is a good way to get people reaching for the eject button but I am really glad I toughed it out on this one, because wow, these guys are good songwriters. It is always nice to hear from good songwriters. You know who they remind me a little of is the Sex Clark Five if they were more into country music. There, I said it. I feel better now.
