5.0 out of 5 stars
All-Around- ALL the way around, September 3, 1999
This review is from: Road House Rules (Audio CD)
Great ALBUM- this is what people are talking about when they advocate buying a whole album of one singer to get scope and a real feel for someTHING. Lonnie Brooks's voice is utterly seductive, and he USES it to sing the guts out of and into a lovely variety of bluesy/country songs and yet he sounds plenty city. Oddly enough, he reminds me of Otis Clay and Maria Callas in that you are likely to believe every word he sings. This is a special treat in an area that so often bounces around among formula blues, country smarm, and roadhouse noise just for the noise of it. Fun variety of good musicianship from everybody playing.

Terrible, July 9, 2009
This review is from: Road House Rules (Audio CD)
Backbone Man is one of the worst songs I have ever heard in my life. Like nails on a chalkboard. Did not listen to any other songs after that atrocity.
