This set of songs by MR. Jeffreys has been on my musical playlist since I first heard it. To me it's the best selection of material he has produced. Each song has it's own magic of rock,soul and roots. Here it is reissued on cd. The Lp I own sounds great, Now I can have the digital version as well.

This is a must have for Garland Jeffreys fans."Guts for love" Is a soulful ballad that asks the ultimate question about love and commitment.
Rebel love and El salvdore are top notch selections that will have you playing this cd over and over again.

I've been a Garland Jeffreys fan since I first heard NY Skyline (that album) but when I moved to the West Coast it became hard to find his goods. He's a poet and a musician and a talented buy who hasn't gone mainstream, hasn't sold out, hasn't given up. And I am so glad for all of that, would not want to have a world without Garland Jeffreys.

In the 80's I had Guts for love on a cassette which was left to dust for many years.Just a month ago I replayed the cassette and it reminded me the great music of Garland Jeffreys.The cd is great , only the bonus tracks are somewhat disappointing.

I do not know what to say about the album, I have never come so far, yet, because I always listen to this song, "surrender" and it is a really nice song, Recommended.
