I think this is the best album Camper Van Beethoven has done. I've been on the verge of buying the Cigarettes & Carrot Juice box set (which features this album and four others, all excellent) for a while now. The box was the only way that this music could be bought when I first came across it. Then I saw the new reissues with extra tracks when I was out shopping the other day. I'm a sucker for extra tracks. I usually prefer to have them at the end of the disc with some buffer space, rather than mixed in with the album as they have been here, but the new track listing seems to work pretty well, with the exception of the repetition of "(We're a) Bad Trip." It doesn't hurt the album much, though, it just leads to the inevitable need to explain it to my wife when she says "Didn't we already hear this song?" All the bonus tracks are worth having and I'm glad to have this new extended version of the album.

I have to say I bought this album becuase I'm a big fan of cracker if you like cracker you will love ths album, if you lik folk and country music you wil like this albumb if you just want to hear something different then the crap thats played on todays radio then you should all love this album it's very interesting though you hav to really listen to it for a few songs beforre you wil reall like it

hope this helps happy days to everyone
