4.0 out of 5 stars Jonathan rocks the guitar (and bass and organ), July 5, 2007

Certainly more rockin' and distorted than Jonathan's most recent output.

Like, oh, APARTMENT HUNTING (by Mary Margaret O'Hara), the soundtrack is likely to get more business than the movie (slightly).

Pretty short, but, then, so have most of Jonathan's recent albums been.

12 tracks, 28 minutes, but still intense and fun.

Quite different from Jonathan's other work, has lot more darker and heavier tones.
Great stuff.
Tommy Larkins delivering Impressive and Massive drumming,
wonderful pedal steel by Ralph Carney.
I love it. It's fun!
I think it's Cosy Little Asteroid Music.
