5.0 out of 5 stars Great Road-trip music, September 21, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Tenderloin (Audio CD)

A friend of mine lent me this CD for a cross country trip. It never left my stereo. This CD has great power and quiet strength at the same time. Its hard, heavy, sometimes dreamy and you can tell they had fun making this CD. Plus if your a fan of old school ZZ TOP, this is right up your alley! I love this CD.

This review is from: Tenderloin (Audio CD)

This is a good CD, I spent my "formative" years in Lawrence KS where they originated and can tell you that the live shows are infinitely better than the CDs however this is some great work by Ernie and the gang. I've struggled for years to find a band to compare them to and can't, sorry. Perhaps they are a slightly more "bluesy" version of Reverend Horton Heat with just as much attitude...but that's not right either (closest I can come). Blasting harmonicas and heavy guitars is about what you end up with. It's blues meets hard rock meets local bar. I imagine this is what Led Zeppelin would have sounded like to the first people who heard them, no band to compare them to (not making a comparison on their sound, just how original they are). I think their earlier work was a better but more raw and not nearly as refined as they are on this CD. If you listen to Pawn Shop and aren't immediately moved to play it over and over then this is NOT the band for you.

cars, bourbon, and pawn shops. this stuff cranks from the get go. hard rockin guitars and power chords borrowed from ac-dc as well as lynyrd skynyrd with some whisky soaked vocals and some nasty harmonica thrown in to compliment the mix.
