This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
In today’s world of overprocessed, distilled, diluted music, you can always count on George Thorogood for a 200-proof shot of straight, blue-collar, last-call-be-damned blues-rock.
And on his umpteenth album, George and his long-serving backup band of Destroyers deliver all the Chuck Berry and Willie Dixon covers you’d expect — although they do mix things up at times with a hit of frat rock (The Swingin’ Medallions’ Double Shot Of My Baby’s Love) and Nick Lowe Britpop (the Tex-Mex-tinged title track). No matter how they serve it up, though, it all packs a wicked punch.
