Album Description This album is different to the one released in the UK at the end of last year. It has been re-mastered and is an enhanced CD, including a film clip of the band live performing Daddy Rollin Stone, the lead off track on the CD. It also includes all the writing credits that didn't appear on the UK release. The cover has been changed from a red background to white in order to make it easier to differentiate. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsWas a band ever better named? stuck_in_a_moment | San Diego, California | 10/10/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) " The Blasters are a blast! And this album is a real treat. I'm not certain how to describe their music - rockabilly? blues? rockabluesy? or just rockin' American music? -- and I'm not sure it matters. My suggestion is to listen to the samples Amazon has provided, because even 30 second bites of The Blasters are pretty darn tasty. With so many good songs on one CD, I'll touch on a few. Daddy Rollin' Stone struts, in the studio audio version, as well as the live, computer-playable video version (this is the only video on the disc). The title track is a great number about playing your lucky numbers ("If you're working harder than you're getting paid, 4-11-44/The poor man's remedy"). Julie is a plaintive promise to a lover who's a prison term away. Dry River is a fine ballad about lost Los Angeles and lost love. Precious Memories is a rollicking romp down memory lane ("I turned out to be/The only hell my Mama ever raised"). Just To Be With You is a very good harmonica-led blues track. And the closing track, Fire of Love, is about playing with fire ("Now love is an ember/It once was a flame") while trying not to get burned. Throughout, Phil Alvin is in fine voice and the band is terrific. I've saved the best for last. My favorite is the rocker Rebound. Just try sitting still during Rebound, I dare you. If you're not bouncing around the room inside the first minute...call 911...check for a pulse...heartbreak has never been so much fun. Thanks to The Blasters, even being unlucky can be very lucky indeed. 4-11-44 is a very lucky number. " Newest is Best M. S. Griebel | Colorado, USA | 01/12/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "Blasters newest studio CD is the best music and sound they have ever produced.....GREAT CD !!! Now we want more of the same out here Blasterland !!!!! Get to work fella's" Classic Blasters John E. Hennessy | OPKS | 01/05/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "must have for Blasters fans...everyone else ought to want this in their player at home too"
