I purchased this CD after seeing Pete Droge open for Live, and I sure wasn't sorry. The music is consistent throughout and perfect for someone who likes the blues.

Heard him back in the mid/late 90's in a Tower Records and had to buy. Was NOT disappointed with the entire song list. Years later, after my puppy chewed my disc to pieces, I still want to listen to Pete Droge and re-buy. Very nice sound to his voice.

I heard the song "If You Don't Love Me (I'll Kill Myself)" originally as part of the soundtrack to the movie "Dumb and Dumber". I was very attracted to the song, and decided to investigate. Found Necktie Second had it, and purchased an audio cassette used. My favorite tune is still "If You...", but enjoy all the cuts in repeated listenings. This week I found the tape had gone bad, so I'm purchasing the same now on CD. Just rent "Dumb and Dumber" if you wish to hear "If You...", as well as see a pretty good Jeff Daniels comedy (w/ J. Carey). I must say, I would not have been inclined to buy the tune if I was a lyrics person--the title seems pretty "down"; it was the simple, very upbeat and happy, almost reflexively "up" and unpretentious chord changes that captured and held my attention.
