I was recently asked if I have a list of my favorite LPs
rather than just songs. Being the king of lists, of course I do. The LP that
features this song – “The Brooklyn Side” - is certainly on it.
For the uninitiated this album is filled with great lyrics,
swampy guitars dusted with a generous portion of leftover feedback from Neil
Young’s guitar. Their primary strength is their songwriting; which can be
touching, caustic and funny all in one song. Many of these traits are not only
found on “The Brooklyn Side” but all their releases featuring my other Bottle
Rockets favorites: “Lean Forward” and their current release “Bit Logic”.
1996
