A little tonk with your honky

(4 out of 5 stars)
"Not the acidic honkytonk you might be expecting from our Deadly Snakes vet; Ethier seems to have spent more than a few lonely nights with a bottle, a pack of smokes, and Dylan's "Bringing It All Back Home" roaring, coming out on the other side with an excellent blues/folk/rock record only a drunk white boy could conceive. Forget about the obvious borrowings from Dylan (and even Tom Petty!)--if you are going to rip someone off, it might as well be from the best, right? We aren't talking about mind-blowing originality, here; we're talking about great rock and roll. Buy it, burn it, and give it to the masses!"
