    Enjoyable, but a gold star or two short of his 1997 masterpiece, Other Songs.

    Ron Sexsmith actually rocks, albeit only sort of and irregularly.

    incredible album. A great indication of where Ron was headed in giving us his next two classic albums. This one is nearly flawless as well.

    No action. Steve Earle's production almost sounds like a parody -- although of what, I can't be sure. MOR drivel.

    Ranks right up there with his previous masterpieces!
