Title: BETTER TITLED 'HERE COMES THE BARGAIN RACK'
Product review: It will give you some idea about how Wainwright is straining for material that one of this CD's songs is about 9-11. Now four years into the history books, Loudon seemingly has nothing better to say about the tragedy than he noticed white tiles in the New York subway.There isn't a "Westchester County" to be found on this offering. "My Biggest Fan"--just to cite one example--seems pointlessly indulgent even from egotist Wainwright. There's no "aha" in the song and Wainwright comes off as mean-spirited towards an inconsequential target that few will be able to relate to.The CD a few years back that followed his mother's death exhibited poetry and beautiful melodies, such as "White Wine." But "Here Come the Choppers" is just a Shake-And-Bake of half-conceived songs you'll never listen two weeks after purchasing the CD.Wainwright is a notoriously uneven artist, but "Here Comes the Choppers" is an under-inflated balloon at a party where you can't help but yawn.
