That's close to perfect music when you don't intend to listen to music. So you'll also forget it as fast as the last tune ends. Also without checking the info on the album I would have bet that it was from the 70s (even the cover is misleading), and it really sounds like they did no effort to update this sound and make it more "modern" somehow (there's a good load of revivals where the sound from an era is used as an inspiration but with a modern twist). It would probably have more value if really from the 70s. It's not bad per se, but should it be among the 1001 albums I should listen before I die? Not sure.
The 90s were supposed to be a grungy, cynical era, so this unpretentious rock and roll album is something of an outlier. I think this is probably the American equivalent of Pub Rock - no nonsense rock’n’roll, nothing fancy but good fun. A particular highlight is a foot stomping cover of Too Hard to Handle by Otis Redding.
Was OK to listen to, but nothing special.
A competent but pretty forgettable straight rock album. The Otis Redding cover was decent. Dunno why this album is considered a "must-listen".
