Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Home alone with his trusty '58 Gibson Dot Blonde guitar and '53 Fender Twin amp, Edmund remakes a few favorite 45s, drenches some new tunes in echo, and generally has a blast while again playing the Welshman in Memphis. This strong comeback features sterling covers of songs by Otis Redding, Jerry Reed and NRBQ's Al Anderson, plus an album-oriented rock gem in the Billy Gibbons-penned "One Step Back." --Jeff Bateman

5.0 out of 5 stars Please Don't Ignore This Great Album, February 18, 2008

Dave Edmunds is a truly great artist, and I've never understood why he is so ignored by the public. It's true that he made his greatest albums in the seventies. "Repeat When Necessary" is my favorite. But this surprisingly great album is the best one he's made since then. Don't miss it!

This is one of his finest records,ranking up there with twang'n,repeat,and mallet.Beach boy music is a faithfull,moving tribute to Brian and the boys.The title track is punchy and infectious,while I got the will is as bluesy and rocking as any of his best.The production captures the raw,yet textured sound of his late 70's albums,as opposed to the Jeff Lynne tunes in the 80's.Better word for love is in his balled vien,beautifully sung as the Everly's might have performed it.Dave proves his music is as timeless and exciting as we've known to expect from this student of american rock and pop history.
