They Say...
With guitarist Richard Thompson once again in the producer's chair, Wainwright offered up this fine batch of tunes that cover everything from global disharmony ("Hard Day on the Planet") to a bad drug trip ("Acid Song"). The balance of sharp wit and emotional impact (particularly on the heartbreaking "Your Mother and I") throughout the disc makes this one of Wainwrights very best albums. But more sensitive listeners should beware of the potentially offensive "Vampire Blues."
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
