Seriously, you know... It's a cliche to say, but there are those pieces of art that save you. This is one for me. It shook me out of two low points in my life (the summer it came out, a bad transition year in high school), and two years later bored and depressed in college. There's joy in this rough rockandroll LP. Real joy at making music, real joy at giving the whole world the finger.
Plus, it's just pure magic from start to finish. Amazing rock and roll that incorporates everything that makes rock and roll great--gospel, blues, rhythm and blues, country, soul. It's all there.
