"This upbeat session from the Radiators is one long and wonderful musical romp.

The Radiators give good heat and sustain it beautifully from start to finish. Throughout they generate the 'feel good' vibe that is the signature of New Orleans music, most notably on Let's Radiate!

There are a handful of covers here, but not to worry; in this live session numbers like The Twist, Cripple Creek, No Expectations and Down on the Corner all maintain their vitality. The performance goes bluzy in heavy doses, then ends on a high note that encourages you to start all over again, this time sans Prozac. So ignore the detritus that sometimes passes for music today; get this and confirm that music CAN *send you* to the groove 'n elevate that mood...however be warned, cause this ain't no 'elevator music'!

In a delayed intro that comes after four vigorous tracks, the man sez;

"if you're lookin for reality...it aint here!"

Highly recommended good time stuff!"
