Title: Good interim release for a band on the way up Product review: Five stars for the band's next full-length studio release (I hope!). This EP may slip under the radar, since it is comprised of mainly covers, and an abbreviated version of "The Road Leads Where It's Led" from the previous album- this is a bit of a puzzle....great song, but why cut out the album intro?? The good news is that the cover songs are great. TSM have performed all of them while touring tirelessly, and it is good to have them all on one disc, since they are otherwise scattered on import EPs."Immer Wieder (De Luxe)" is simply majestic, and "Girl from the North Country" is given a startling psychedelic treatment awash with keyboards and processed guitar, all melded together with a melancholy vocal....this band is intelligent, incredibly musical, and deserves the raves they are receiving. This album will keep the fans happy while awaiting the new album, and may win them some new admirers along the way.

Title: If only it were longer... Product review: "Eagles Live" is my favorite live album. The songs have excellent edits between different years of performances. I have heard of the studio enhancing rumors too, and they are obvious in a few places. Great sound quality all around, and excellent performing! My only regret is the playlist. The Joe Walsh songs came out great but seem out of place for this collection. And why did they include the "Doolin-Dalton Reprise II?"(obviously a Bill Szymczyk studio creation) So many other classic tunes should have been substituted in place of LBG, ANL, and Doolin Dalton... Perhaps there were no pristine multitrack recordings fit enough to work into the collection. The total playing time is about 77 minutes-- so much more could have been inserted here. Hopefully someday the album will be remastered with extra tracks. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?

Title: WISE, HUMOR-RIDDEN READ Product review: If you love Kafka, Camus, Tom Robbins and Barbara Kingsolver and hunger for existential fare,HYPOHYPOTHESIS offers a heart smart feast. The writing is spare, spicy, potent, off-the-wall at times, girded with bone-crushing authenticity. It reads like Grisham, punches like Sartre. The rewards of this thought provoking saga recur in dreams and random thoughts. What a pleasure to discover a current novel (voice) that is funny, wise, and delectably literate.
