Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Snooze-a-thon.......2001-06-11

Besides the fact that Greg Prevost has very pedestrian taste (every cover here and during the Kings' career is a no brainer), his vocals are thin and weedy. "1-2-5" sounds creaky for starters. Further, garage is definitely about having the gall and attitude to tackle songs that are probably too big for you. Hence all the original garage bands covering Yardbirds; sometimes with sublime results, but usually a frustrating catastrophe. But the Chesterfield Kings' cover of the Yardbirds' "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" on this disc leaves a listener wishing for Todd Rundgren's limp version on FAITHFUL. Only True West's cover of "Happenings" is as bad as the Kings. 'nuff said.

5 out of 5 stars The Best So Far.......2000-01-22

This Cd is great! The vocals, the songwriting are outstanding! Mark Lindsay is better than ever,and sounds wonderful. Greg Prevost, the lead singer sounds great as well. The cover of "Look Through Any Window" sounds even better then the original. The CKings have done a wonderful job capturing the spirit and style of the 60's genre. I just can't say enough about it. Check it out for yourself. You won't be dissappointed. My fav. song on the album is "Where Do We Go From Here?" Keep up the great job guys! Hope Mark and the Ckings do more together. They work well together.
