I haven't played an album this much since the early Tom Petty, Elvis Costello, Pretenders and Van Morrison albums. I highly urge you to give this a spin. It is haunting, moving and rocking you throughout. I heard an interview with Terry Gross on NPR's Fresh Air when all of a sudden she played a track. I cranked up the radio and never took a breath for the rest of the show. I swear I went and bought it that day and have been playing it sometimes twice daily since! I am not a teenager anymore but this habit forming record makes me feel like one with regard to the amount of spin time!

Once again John Doe comes up with a Great cd . This one sounds like something that was recorded back on Robert Johnson front porch. I just went to see John and his great band called the Nick Luca Trio( Going Places for Sure ) at the new WXPN Live at the World Cafe stage in Philadelphia. What a show WOW!!! Then everyone hade a chance to hang out with John & his band. It was fun . Rumor has it the KNITTERS are all getting together for a new C.D. and a tour this Summer. If John Doe is playing in your area, just go. I promise you will not be disappointed. Andy Wojcik, Hockessin ,Delaware

While I was, and continue to be, a big fan of the LA punk scene during the late seventies and early eighties, John Doe stands out as a real musical and lyrical talent among so many others that were simply able to "strike a chord" among the angry youth audience. John Doe has written a thoughtful retrospect that has elements of rock, punk, folk, and country. Rarely is an album released where I am able to enjoy more than one or two songs. This album is chocked full of great tracks.
