Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Fun, fun, fun!.......2005-01-28

Terry Anderson is tight with Dan Baird, and you can definitely hear it in the music. This album is not quite as Faces-like as Baird's solo stuff; it's kind of halfway between a Baird solo record and a Rockpile album. The songwriting is sharp, funny but not jokey (with the exception of the novelty Safety First, which is one of the album's weaker tracks). NRBQ fans will be happy to see two cowrites with Big Al Anderson.

All in all, this album is just a great big party, perfect for throwing in the car stereo, rolling down the windows, and cranking that sucker up as loud as it will go. If you like true rock and roll--stuff that's juiced-up and swings, like Chuck Berry--you oughta love this disc too.

5 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE!.......2004-10-31

Again, Terry Anderson shows his gifted song writing abilities and with a
little more humor this time around. The musicianship is superb.
Terry and Dave Adams did a hell of a job on this disc, very clean and crisp,
yet full sounding, a true pleasure to listen to. Everyone who loves rock n roll
should own this disc. I can't wait for his next solo effort.

5 out of 5 stars Good Rockin' Fun.......2002-05-23

Terry Anderson mentions that Dave Edmunds was a big inspiration for this collection of rollicking tunes, and "I'll Drink To That" sizzles with the energy of Edmunds at his best. Anderson is an experienced songwriter and demonstrates his craft here. There's no filler to be found. Each song is chock-full of hooks. "$ of an Education" starts up this rock 'n' roll train, and things roll on steadily from there. Other high points include the ultra-catchy pop of "Boyfriend 2" and the irresistable fun of "Church Folks Comin'". While the final track, the ballady "Stay Away From Your Heroes", strays from the basic formula of upbeat rockers, it still demonstrates Anderson's sheer skill as a songwriter. "I'll Drink To That" is about as close to guaranteed rock 'n' roll pleasure that you can achieve via CD. Fans of Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, NRBQ, even Chuck Berry will all love this one. It's so much fun, you might want to call up your friends, get something to drink, put on "I'll Drink To That", and have yourself a party.

5 out of 5 stars A witty, fun rocker not to be missed - tell your friends!.......2002-03-07

Terry Anderson, fresh out of Bunn, NC, is an unsung hero in today's music industry. If you like rock n' roll as found in the Georgia Satelites, Dan Baird, the Yayhoos and -- yes, the world's most underrated/promoted 'band' NRBQ -- as well as some light-hearted country twinges and a folk croon, you have got to grab this real winner from Terry.

More polished yet not over produced in comparison to previous efforts, there is great variety for every taste here. Terry's vocals are downhome and upfront, full of emotion and honesty. The first three are fun rockers with a lot of wit - and wisdom: "$ for an Education", the Daddy Bit the Dust (or did he?) "Daddy Had A Wreck" and then the hillbilly hoot "Killin Down In Dillon". Throw in "Safety First" and "Church Folks Comin'" for breather and laughs, you will really enjoy the hilarious "37 Miles In Reverse" and "Mr. Busdriver", featuring "Big" Al Anderson (former NRBQ) in a rippin' guitar solo. For me, the rest of the tunes are good and solid and manage to kee the flow going at different paces.

Lookin for a diamond in the rough? Look no further. This CD is pure fun, rock and pure open lovin' of life. It ranked at the top of my favorite overall CDs for the year. Some of these songs will have you humming unforgettable melodies and singing the crazy refrains. Now there are some great images in there too to make some dandy fine videos!
