Same old same old. - By: Karl Nicholson, 02 Nov 2008 
As much as I am a big fan, I was a bit disappointed. The songs were great tracksin their day, but it seems to me like this newest album lacks a little umph!
I continue to wait for new material..........The previous album was great!
Old friends revisited - By: Ronald Devlin, 05 Oct 2008 
The thing is that Loudon Wainwright III had, & still has, an ability to touch on feelings way before time.
I have all the tracks on this CD on vinyl, bought years & years ago. They were deliveredin Loudon's young voice, at least an octave higher, free of the ageing process. Then, while people older than me might have thought the songs pretentious, formed by someone who couldn't have had the experience to know what he wrote about, they hit the spot for me.
Hearing these old friends again,in his grown up voice, brings new resonance to the collection. In fact, it reminds me that not only did Loudon know what he was singing about, he knew it well. This collection is a vindication of his authenticity.

Older and a little wiser self-review - By: DOA UK, 04 Oct 2008 
A sublime self-review for the most part... & a good intro for the novice.
