Title: Another good Johnson album for your collection
Product review: A lot of this material is old material that Eric re-worked, together with some new gems. The collection doesn't have the fire that AH VIA MUSICOM has, but these are basically "sketches" that he had that he felt might be appreciated by his legion of fans. There are a few numbers that are really good (his version of the Beatles PAPERBACK WRITER is incendiary). A lot of it is acoustic, but done really well. These are what you could call DEEP CUTS that show the depth of his talents. A lot of the tracks are not "radio" hits, but unmistakably intelligent, and would be appreciated by Johnson fans that want to understand his work from more than the angle of his "hits." I think you can buy it from his website, so don't pay the exorbitant prices shown here ($40?).
