content: Is it just me or does anybody else notice that the production standards on this disc aren't up to those of his other recordings? Play this album back to back with So and you will notice that the sound on So is much crisper and cleaner. Anyway, the musical content on this album is right up there with So and in some instances surpasses it. Oh sure, there are the obligatory "I'm only putting this tune on the disc in hopes that I'll get radio airplay" songs Steam and Kiss that Frog in which he tries to repeat the success of "Sledgehammer". Otherwise the songs on Us are some of the best that PG's ever done either lyrically or musically. Even the early nineties hit "Digging in the Dirt" is a pretty complex look into the psyche. If you like So, you'll be pleasantly surprised by Us. And BTW, if you like Us, check out Plus From Us which is a compilation of music from the musicians which appeared on, and inspired the music of, Us.
