"It's a damn shame we haven't been listening to this GREAT BAND for the past 20 years. I have been a Don Dixon fan for years but feel he really shines when surrounded by Robert Kirkland (a great song writer and singer ), Marty Stout, Scott Davidson and Rod Abernethy (another great song writer and singer). Together they all shine. Something new would be great, but until then I'll thoroughly enjoy the 5' 11" record and suggest that you do also!"

WOW, I am blown away! One of the top 5 CDs of all time!

"It's a good thing this is a CD and not a vinyl album. If it were a vinyl album I would have worn it out already. Every song is great and unique. Arrogance actually has 4 different lead singers and they are all great. Each song is so different that you don't mind playing the same CD over and over. All 5 band members wrote songs on the CD. The lyrics are unique to this band. The soulful voice and song writing talent of Don Dixon blows me away. Don may always be best known for producing the band REM but that is a terrible injustice. The vocal range of Robert Kirkland is unreal and his song writing talent is world class. The Guitar of Rod Abernethy is SWEET! Marty Stout, the keyboard player, could play Carnage Hall as well as rock and roll. Adding his piano talents to the songs and even a great
solo is such a refreshing change from what we are used to in rock and roll. I can't say enough great things about this band
or the CD. Just buy it.
