Put this cd on and get the party started! There are a few imaginative covers, "The Harder They Come" by the Waco Brothers, "Every Rose Has It's Thorn" by Rex Hobart and the Misery Boys and "The Madonna Trilogy" by The Meat Purveyors-Madonna songs played bluegrass-style! There is also an outstanding duet of "It's Only Make Believe" sung by Kelly Hogan and John Wesley Harding. There are two Ryan Adams' songs, one previously unreleased, "Goodbye Honey," and the other an acoustic version of "To Be Young (is to be sad, is to be high)" and both are outstanding. There are 18 tunes in all, and each one of them is worth a listen. The Bloodshot line-up is described as honky-skronk, country-punk or insurgent country, and these songs all have a country feel to them. They also have a lot of heart and soul, musical skill, and a great deal of enthusiasm for the material, and most of all, they just sound like they're having a LOT OF FUN! Highly recommended!

This is drinkin' music people. It may be categorized as alt country but the singles on this album are rooted in old school country music. The kind that was played in smokey old bars. If you enjoy lyrics that you can understand and that tell a story this album is great.
