Customer Review: blew me away
I had not heard anything from this album when I bought it, but I have a couple of their other albums, so I thought I would give it a try. When I listened to the whole thing the first time, I was blown away! It is the best Lost Dogs album since Little Red Riding Hood in my opinion. There are some humorous tracks, but most of the album is sincere, touching roots music. If you are a Dogs fan or a Terry Taylor fan, this is a must-have album.
Customer Review: Almost perfect
Let me start by saying that I am a christian turned atheist who sill loves the music that these guys play. I only say this because I am not clouded by the notion that "all Christian music is great!!" as I once was. Getting to the disc....the first 2 songs are worth the $15 or whatever dollars you pay for this..they are Byrds inspired jangle-rock that are just perfect. The next song, the title track is a bit slow, but not bad...Three leged dog is a country/rock rave up that would make Jason and the Scorchers proud...in a similar vein is "When the judgement Comes"...I assume these are the songs an earlier reviewer said sounded like Johnny Cash and Merle Hagard....um, no...sorry, I don't think they have ever heard either person..this is a horrible discription....think more Uncle Tupelo or even closer-the Bottle Rockets. (Actually this whole disc is similar to Golden Smog of alt-country fame...if you like that, buy this). The only songs I don't like are Golden Dreams and No Shadow Of a Turning...too boring....but greatness follows in the untitled track...Lovely Man....damn this good. It is sung by Mike Roe of the 77's and it is a mid-tempo countryish shuffle that ends the disc on a perfect note. I listen to this disc often, and I would encourage anyone who is erudite enough to look at this listing to buy it...
