CD Reviews

A Hybrid US/UK Version would be a 5 star CD.
Tim Brough | Springfield, PA United States | 10/15/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

""A Tonic For the Troops" found the young Rats in sarcastic snide humor, willing to take on topics as timely as tabloids or as close to home as life on the dole in the classic "Rat Trap." I was lucky enough to have bought the US version of the CD, which included an improved re-recording of "Mary of the 4th Form" and "Joey's On the Street Again" and a different sequencing. Quite frankly, I could not live without the exuberance of "Like Clockwork," "She's So Modern," and "Rat Trap." Maybe one of these days, someone at CBS/Legacy will realize that "Great Songs Of Indifference" is inadequate and we'll get all the "Tonic" we deserve!"
