Title: He must owe money to the clarinet player.
Review: I've heard a couple of Joe Henry's albums and have really liked them, so I was looking forward to this one. It's too bad he gave some the instrumentalists free reign to play whatever out-of-tune junior-high-level improvisation they felt like. Throw out the clarinet player, and it's still a pretty good album. But as is - especially for anyone with an ear for jazz - it's unlistenable at times.
