"Really just a perfect album. Rosie Flores' debut was like Wanda Jackson coming back to us in her early, gritty phase, but with an even sweeter voice (when she feels like being sweet). Every song on this album is worth hearing, a few are things I would put on a compilation of the greatest rockabilly songs of all time. The highlight might be the finale, "I Gotta Know," which Jackson did herself so many years back. And the most memorable song might be the one where a bitter Flores is telling her cheating hypocrite of a man, "God may forgive you, but I won't/Yes, Jesus loves you, but I don't." Wow. Ouch. Fabulous record.
