Bobby Bare Jr.- From the End of Your Leash (CD)
Bobby and his Young Criminals' Starvation League's latest is a frothy, brilliant, genre-bending mongrel. There are dreamy pop songs sung by folks not ready to turn their backs on the visceral joys of gutter punk, a a shameless embrace of groovy SoCal country rock, sharp, soulful Stax-style horn Blasts, R&B swagger, and a love of the Brill Building, the Ryman Auditorium, CBGB's and the gas station outside Memphis where the van broke down. It's a beautiful funny, heartbreaking, ambitious, hypnotic, lovesick and lovelorn lyrical knockout.
Tracklist:
- Strange Bird
- Valentine
- Terrible Sunrise, The
- Visit Me in Music City
- Your Favorite Hat
- Don't Follow Me (I'm Lost)
- Let's Rock & Roll
- Borrow Your Girl
