Title: At long last....
Review: Ok..I confess. I was a John Eddie groupie (wannabe) in the 80's. I followed him to bars that no one should really be caught dead in so I understand where Play Some Skynrd comes from.That being said, the album is....interesting. It was a lot more laid back than I had remembered his music. Those of you who have heard his earlier stuff, I was expecting more along the lines of "Swear" or "Santina". It was still a roller coaster ride though. I cried through "The Place You Go" and howled with laughter at "F'ing 40." Critics say that he's making fun his friends who are older, I suspect it's more that he's making fun of himself and everyone else who goes through the "Oh geez, I'm Forty" Syndrome. Some of the songs were unremarkable ("Let Me Down Hard"), some made me cringe ("Low Life"), some of them I'll end up singing to myself a lot ("Jesus is Coming","F'ing 40"). For "The Faithful", it's a whole different John Eddie. Still and all, it's a fun album to listen to.
Is the review positive or negative?
