4.0 out of 5 stars Billy's back, July 23, 1999

Some of the things on here are so great that it's easy to forgive those that aren't so great. "Lookin' Back, Thinkin Ahead," "Pass This Story 'Round," and "I Get Enough" are amazing songs that would have been Rockpile classics if that great group had stayed together. While not everything here is great, there's also nothing bad, making this a worthy addition to a Rockpile fan's catalog.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rockpile's Back, August 4, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: A Good Week's Work (Audio CD)

Billy Bremner was the odd-man-out in the legendary -- and short lived -- Rockpile, the Nick Lowe-Dave Edmunds supergroup of the late 1970s. After Rockpile disintegrated, Bremner released a disappointing solo effort called Bash -- so unnecessary that the LP was never released in the U.S.

Now comes "A Good Week's Work" -- so name because the CD was purportedly recorded in the course of seven days -- which rekindles the Rockpile flame. The record is filled with Rockpile-esque "Pure Pop", punctuated by Bremner's solos are very reminiscent of his "Seconds of Pleasure" work. Here's hoping ex-mates Lowe and Edmunds will hear this new CD and be inspired to revisit their old sound -- maybe even a Rockpile reunion? Please!!

Those of us who thought Dave Edmunds and Nick Lowe were the heart of Rockpile should rethink our thoughts. This album is closer to Rockpile than anything Nick or Dave have done lately. It's great rock and roll and nothing else. Buy it.
