A trip to a wonderful past

Review Score: (8/10)
The CD returns the listener to a time of their youth of innocence, expectations, and explorations as they attempted to find their place in an adult world. The cd relives goals and dreams of a time where the word lexus or 401K were unknown. The Friday night date, the expectations of passionate encounter, and energy of youth is captured in the music. The "supposed fan from CA, US of A, Arizona" and other supposed enlightened areas should remain west of the Mississippi. Maybe with luck another earth quake could drop a freeway on them.
