My first thought was that this did not seem a whole lot different from "Blackout", but I guess that's not entirely true. Both albums have the same excellent (some might say slick) production, but this album seems to have a bit less folk influences. "Sunshine Highway" is the single from this album, or so I'm told, and I think its pretty lame, but other than that, I think that the album is pretty solid. I dig the title track as well as "The Auld Triangle", both of which were released on a picture disc. "Tessie", the official song of the Boston Red Sox, is also on here. Its listed as a bonus track on the CD, which I don't understand because its also on my vinyl copy. By the way, the vinyl version has an extra track.
