Title: Like vintage wine, gets better with age
Review: When this album first came out I thought it was one of the New Rider's weaker offerings. Now, as the years have gone by, I like it a lot better. Stephen Love's singing takes center stage on this CD, and it is stronger and smoother than other NRPS vocalists. Green Eyes Flashing and What a Night as two highlights. A couple of numbers done by founding lead guitarist David Nelson add a delightful country twang; Jasper and A Good Woman Likes to Drink With The Boys. There's a great little instrumental redition of Turkey in the Staw, and you'll find the solid musicianship of Nelson, Love, Dawson, and Buddy Cage to be right up where you'd expect it. While you may not want to listen to this CD over and over, it is pleasant and certainly worthy of a place in your collection. Enjoy!
