For their third album, these Nashville boys expand their boogie-blues/rock roots. "Julie's Song" playfully sports a poppy Beatlesque touch, while "Dragon Park" hints at jazz. But no matter where these guys stretch their wings creatively, they always return home to the South. Take "Groove Me," for example, where pummeling, almost heavy metal rhythm head-butts with smooth '60s soul. Or the ballad "It Ain't Nothin'," which is pure class with a country twang. Singer Mike Farris may put his trust in the Lord, as evidenced by the introspective "Standing in the Sun," but he also proudly struts his stuff on "Boogie King" and investigates the dark side on the tortured "More Than I Can Take." <I>Big Wheel</I> has many facets, all of them fascinating. <I>--Janiss Garza</I>

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Band Incredible Album.......2005-12-09

I saw this band (in Tucson) open for Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top. I have been a LONGTIME Skynyrd and ZZ Top fan, HOWEVER the Screaming Cheetah Wheelies OWNED the stage. Funky, rocking, emotional, impossible to sit still is how I would describe the band. This album, is their best and has something for everyone...emotional, well-written songs that MOVE, and some of the most beautiful guitar playing EVER. Enjoy.

5 out of 5 stars Who the heck are the SCW?????.......2005-03-29

Newcomers listen up! These guys are great. If you do not own any of SCW cd's..start with this one and work your way back. If you have been directed to this site due to recommended listening lists or whatever, roll your dice and gamble on this last CD. I did and went back and bought all the others.

SCW remind me a bit of Black Crowes, but more influenced by R&B than the straight forward rock of the BC. SCW tend to break into jams throughout thier songs, hence the not-so-friendly radio format, and lack of airplay. But that is the listening publics loss....at least you can make up your own mind on CD purchases. These guys are great. If anyone out there gets this cd, and listens to "grace", and does not agree that this one song alone is worth the purchase price...email me. And there is so much more here, great rockin tunes and jams. Do you here the Van Morrison references??? Get it and enjoy.

5 out of 5 stars MAYBE THE BEST BAND I'VE EVER HEARD.......2003-05-20

i have all three albums and i must say i'm surprised i haven't worn them out yet. they are hands down the best band i've ever seen live.. including a 4-hour two-set jam in nyc. i just wish get back together and record another album. Trust me, if you get any of their stuff you won't be disappointed.
