This music offering by Marshall Crenshaw, will be one that you return to again and again!
Yeah, the debut album was great, but this one is better, covering music styles from catchy pop to rockabilly, produced by T-Bone Burnett.

The album opens with the blazing rocker 'Little Wild One', and only gets better with 'Yvonne' featuring blistering guitar solos from both Marshall and G.E. Smith.
'Blues is King' is next on the agenda, reminding us once again that Marshall Crenshaw is one of the most gifted songwriters around.
Next up is 'Vague Memory' with a haunting pedal steel guitar and lyrics that could make you cry...
But then 'The Distance Between' picks you right back up again, with excellent lyrics, jangly guitars, and another first class guitar solo.

"Shake Up Their Minds' is Marshall's tip-of-the-hat to rockabilly with another smokin' lead guitar solo.
'I'm Sorry (but so is Brenda Lee)' had me wondering where this song title came from, until I picked up a Brenda Lee album and noticed a song called 'I'm Sorry'.
It all makes sense now!
'Right Now' is another dance gem. You can't sit still for this one.
And finally, the album winds down with 'Lesson Number One', a stunning finale about the hazards of love.

Whether you're an old fan or a new one just discovering Marshall Crenshaw, this musical offering from one of America's most gifted songwriters, will not let you down...
