HINDU EQUATIONS ADD UP TO A MASTERPIECE

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Howard Iceberg's most recent album is his best. Alt. country fans will note that the bass player is none other than Mike Ireland. Howard is one of the great obscure rock and rollers and it's too bad, he deserves to be better known. His lyrics are up there with the best, Townes Van Zandt, Bob Dylan, you name them. His voice is a cracked Dylanesque drawl but it's very expressive. He combines the lyrical poetry of Dylan and the sardonic humor of Mark Twain with the rock and roll heart of Buddy Holly. The title track is one of the great lost summer singles with Howard's witty lyrics and 12-string jangle from his long-time guitarist Gary Paredes. There are also country weepers and rockabilly rave-ups amongst the gems on this album. His music is the kind that stays in your head long after you hear the album--how often does that happen these days? His other releases are worth seeking out also. "Short Songs for Temporary People", his previous release, is available in England. All in all a great Midwestern classic album that must be heard."
