5.0 out of 5 stars Rockabillyness is next to godliness, March 5, 2004

Don't listen to anyone who says anything bad about this album... This is the first reverend album I ever bought, It's the one I've listened to the most, and it is still hands-down the best. Smoke em if ya got em is a tad sophmoric, though it was a brilliant start, liquor in the front is a little harder (can you say Al Jourgenson) and lacks a little of the rockabilly feel but is probably the second best... martini time and space heater begin to waiver and get a little pop and we aren't going to talk about Spend a night in the box.... Lucky 7 tried to get back to the real Reverend feel, but we have to accept the Rev is mellowing out and getting a little older, his music is heading the way of Chet Atkins (not that that is a bad thing) but If you really wanna know what it feels like to be bombarded with pure Psychobilly fury you buy this album! Jim Heath is one of the most talented guitar players on the planet, Jimbo Wallace plays the fastest slap bass I know and this album hits hard.... Go buy a bowling shirt and an old car.... then pop this cd into your deck and just crank it and drive.... The Reverend is a God among men.... he makes lesser guitar players quiver and every track on this cd is perfect.... no question.. I've listened to a lot of Rockabilly, Psychobilly and Swing and heard some great friggin bands (side note check out Deke Dickerson and the Ecco-Phonics) but I always come back to the Rev cause he knows what it's all about... fast cars, fast woman, booze, drugs, steak, Satan, Texas, and Rock and Roll!

5.0 out of 5 stars Start Yer Engines, January 27, 2003

Without a doubt, this LP is hands down the best album the Rev ever put out. Subsequent releases aren't bad, but they just... don't... quite... have it.

"Beer" is the party swing stomper that I played one night and it got everybody on the dance floor like you wouldn't believe. I followed it up a little later with "Big Little Baby" and it was gangbusters pt.2.

"Bales of Cocaine" is the comedy number the ... Surfers would kill for, "The Devil's Chasing Me" would have Brian Setzer scrambling for cover, and "400 Bucks" is worth the price of the CD alone. If you're looking for one RHH album to buy, this is the essential one.

A fantastic album with great songs and God-like guitar playing. The sound on this one is pretty raw and the music jumps out of the speakers and grabs you by the throat. I have no problem admitting that I've played air guitar to "Devil's Chasing Me" on more than one occassion.
