This EP just... well... rocks! "Where'd You Go?" and "Do Something Crazy" are two of the Bosstones' best songs, but if that was all this had to offer, then you ALMOST might as well just pick up "More Noise..." and "Devil's Night Out" (two great CDs, BTB). But it's the three covers that make this EP great. If the cover of "Enter Sandman" doesn't display how phenomenal the rhythm section of this band is, then check out the speed metal cover of "Sweet Emotion". (And if you don't find the concept of a speed metal cover of "Sweet Emotion" irresistable, maybe you should seek help.) And "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" shows what Van Halen could have been if they'd had an ounce of soul and rhythm to go with their technical virtuousity. Beyond just changing the tempos, they added lyrics (some howlingly funny) and put together innovative arrangements to give the songs a very distinctive Bosstones edge. Of course, the two originals are different than the album versions, too (I did say "ALMOST" earlier). Just buy this thing!

The first track is a great MMB track. The Bosstones have added their unique sound to the covers on the rest of the album. You will probably only enjoy these tracks if you are a big Bosstones fan. Either way, pick up the rest of their full length albums before getting this EP.

this cd is sooooo cool!! dicky barrett has the sexiest voice! i love the b'tones version of 'enter sandman' by metallica. i'm surprized i haven't worn out the grooves of this cd i've listened to it so much. it's worth the money and more so buy it whether you love the btones like me or love ska!

The bosstones really rocked this EP, especially with tracks like Sweet Emotion and Enter Sandman, originally by Metallica. You find your self totally groovin on the hard ska-core...

...and glad I did. It was the song that got me into the MMBT. The others are covers that are on the "punk" side of ska - meh

Well, no one else, but one, had something for this cd, and I don't know why! It was, is, a great cd, I listen to it everyday!! They do a great Enter Sandman!!!!!
