Reviews
"...Lurching between faux-vaudeville to clear-cut pop, loopy Latino to bona-fide `60s soul, JOHN HENRY reamins as eclectic as anything the Giants have built in the past...", "...Shows the the Linnell/Flansburgh Knack for Effortless Lyrical Slyness Continues...", Recommended - "...the good news is that the Johns can still churn out skewed pop niblets just fine...", "...Recording with a full band helps--the rhythms are looser, the arrangements more muscular--but the lyrics still tend toward undergraduate smarminess..." - Rating: B, 7 - Very Good - "...they've always had a quite disgusting amount of pop songwriting talent, ideas, humour and daft ambition, and on JOHN HENRY it actually comes out..."
