 Great Album August 21, 2007

We went to see Dan Hicks in June 2007 at the BB King Blues Club in NYC. I was hoping for a repeat of "Where's the Money" and was initially disappointed they didn't play anything from that album. But we bought this on the way out and it is played nonstop at our house now. These are the tunes we use to start every weekend. I loved them back in the 70's but also now love the direction they've gone in years later.
I can't recommend this highly enough.
In fact, it's stuck in my head on a nonstop loop and that's OK with me.

Excellent recording, true and original. Different styles are combined and vocals reveal an astonishing sound. A masterpiece.

I never heard of Dan Hicks until I started listening to Radio Margaritaville, but "Barstool Boogie" caught my ear...from his latest album (Selected Shorts) and was so good, that I just had to have more. It is so great to discover something new...or is that old...

One of my very favorite albums, I like this even better than "Strikin' It Rich" and "Last Train to Hicksville"

A friend of mine used to break out his Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks LPs during our partying days in the 70s & 80s...I had never heard of the group, but always enjoyed the music, the lyrics, and the fun...at least I think I did. Then I heard a review of "Beatin' The Heat" on the radio (NPR?). Whoa...gotta get it. And I've been playing it over & over ever since. Gave a copy to another friend as a Christmas gift after he took two months to return my copy when I let him borrow it. If you like good tunes, lyrics that are at times intelligent, corny, and downright funny, and some fine musicianship...don't let this one slip through your fingers...GET IT NOW!
