"It's easy to say that Widespread is one of, if not the best, kept secrets in modern rock. I was a little weiry about buying this two disc set, because of how breif the second disc was, but I am glad I took the chance. The first disc shows panic at their finest, A good get-you-movin Disco into Tallboy (a personal favorite) is a great way to start the CD. The Chilly Water sandwhich in the middle of the CD really stands out, and ending the disc with Ain't LIfe Grand was a perfect way to keep me psyched for the next CD. (I also have to mention a smoking Wrangler on Disc 1). It took a couple of times to listen through it, but what disc 2 may lack in length, it makes up with in great song selection and high octain early Panic. A supper powerful pigeons, a great sing along Walkin, and the always explosive Sense to Me, with a gentley brutal Mercy to end it. Wow, I'd buy it again if I had to, I suggest this to anyone who loves Panic or needs to hear some southern roots-rock at it's finest... The boys from Georgia do it again."
