From jhuik 01/06/2012 00:20

This was a great reinvention, from changing his name to changing his lyrical depth. I think it has become customary to dismiss JCM as a redneck and even (very mistakenly!) an overly patriotic conservative. Anyone who thinks along those lines needs to listen more closely. This is far more intelligent and specific social commentary than you'll find on anything by, say, the f***ing Smiths.

Another strong album from the number one porridge rocker. A bit more bland than the previous two, and suffers a bit from lacking any definitive go to tracks. Still well worth the time.
