Reviews
"...Westerberg doesn't hide behind a wall-of-racket, but pushes his distinctive vocals--warts and all--to the surface....he's the same Westerberg we've come to know and love, except older and slightly wiser...", "...stands as a sturdy, if slightly less ballsy, report from a songwriter whose up-against-the-wall anti-anthems proved a musical stepping-stone from punk to grunge....In the end, not a bad start to a new career..." - Rating: B, Highly Recommended - "...sounds surprisingly jolly in the aftermath of the Replacements' breakup....his most sensible, frivolous music since 1985's Replacements album TIM...", 7 - Very Good - "...he's still got excellent stomping, memorable tunes, a barbed tongue and a warm heart...", 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Westerberg, former frontperson of the drunken shambles that was The Replacements, proves it on this quite magnificent LP....there's not a dud track anywhere....He's above grunge, for he can craft a proper melody and he's almost a poet...", Included in Q's List of `The 50 Best Albums of 1993.', Ranked #13 in the Village Voice's 1993 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll.
