if you are already a fan of robbie fulks then you know that you will love this album. his humor comes through on the first track which is an ode to traveling on the road. he recorded new material which is spliced in with the live tracks. the album is two discs with the first one being electric guitars drums and bass with robbie on his trade mark acoustic and the second disc is all acoustic. this album is a must have for any robbie fulks fan and a great introduction if you havent been fortunate enough to hear him. i had the pleasure of seeing him live and meeting him and the album captures his stage whit and energy.

Robbie Fulks is a favorite of mine. His best work, for me, ranks right up there with Hank Sr, George Jones, and Johnny Cash. He's a brilliant songwriter and he has mastered many styles of country music. His best stuff, judging from this set, comes from the studio. No doubt he is great to see live, and this set has many gems, but none approach the genius found in 2005's "Georgia Hard" studio disc.

There is plenty of fun, energy, good pickin', and a few new gems. Surely worth owning, but not a good starting place. Get this to complete your collection, but first be sure to hear Georgia Hard, South Mouth, 13 Hillbilly Giants, Let's Kill Saturday Night, Couples in Trouble, and The Very Best Of. Fulks has never made a bad record, and this one keeps up his winning streak. Still, I cannot wait for him to get back into the studio.

Fun for any RF fan. Obviously a quickly put-together CD, but Robbie explains why in one of the earliest tracks, in his usual wry fashion.

This is offbeat but the music is great and the humour works well. It's very entertaining and perfect for those moods where you feel a little weird and want something to hit the spot. This works perfectly.

Sherlock Holmes and the Flying Zombie Death Monkeys

This CD does a good job of capturing the feel of a live Robbie show, which never fails to entertain. Robbie's trademark great musicianship and ample humor shine through.

Bought on a whim, but really enjoyed this 2 disc set.
