CD Reviews

Number one album to listen to while intoxicated.
Yalu Jenkins | 10/31/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Man, I love this record. It's the voice. I could just about care less as to the indie rock credibility he's gained by playing w/ Blues X, Compulsive Gamblers, etc. and with the Beck-like production to boot. The godfather sings like he is quite literally losing his mind. He screams like he wants the devil to come out of his body. Imagine Joe Cocker in the body of Howling Wolf on some major amphetamines in a padded room. Simple arrangements with nods to punk, surf, metal and soul permeate the background for Mr. Williams, Esq's blow torch vocals, intimations on adultery, drug-dealing, stripping, and just being a godfather. One last thing, play this album late at night with an equal amount of drunk men and women in the same room. Fun."
MR.RHYTHM IS KING!

"Andre Williams follows up on his amazing 98 "Silky" (with Mick Collins and Dan Akroyd, ex-Gories) and the soft-edged 99 "Red Dirt" (with his country-band "The Sadies") with a record full of friends, fans and fellows: The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, the Countdowns (who were his band on the 98 European Tour), the Dirtbombs, two ex-Oblivians and lots of other members of the CRYP/In The Red/SFTRI - Family. A rambling, kick-ass, dirty-as-rotten AND groovy R'n'R record that will tear you apart and will make your girlfriend RUN you coz she fell in lurve with ANDRE."
YOU GOT IT AND I WANT IT !
