4.0 out of 5 stars "All the great soul...plus the great taste of Cebar" -- Nick Lowe, March 23, 2007

Classy white soul and R'n'B, from the driving funk of Didn't Leave Me No Ladder to the lovely acoustic closer Somewhere We Both Belong. Sounds like a jam session between Dr. John, Southside Johnny, and the young Van Morrison. Gets the nod from producer/pub-rock king Nick Lowe, too, which is enough of an endorsement for me!

Kind of hard to describe, Paul Cebar and the Milwaukeeans are a dynamic band playing rock to r&b to latin to blues, all with a great beat. This album has great variety, but with an uniform high quality level. If you ever get the chance to see them live, don't pass it up. Excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful upbeat ablum that gets better every listen., October 23, 1998

Paul Cebar has tapped into another great album. His rhythm and horns keep the music alive, but the guitar makes you want to dance. I recommend that if you can see Paul in person you'll become a big fan. He's got contant energy and a dynamic stlye that carries over to every song he writes. Keep it up Paul.
