It's a good 'un.  I like it much better than the new Big Sandy EP *and*
the new Ronnie Dawson album.  Strong originals and killer covers, 
including a red-hot version of Al Dexter's "Wine Women  Song."--don

Yes! Amen to that, my brother! This album rules the universe.. at least for

well that is The Killer (without the marital problems, I hope)
