Reviews"...Strummer has matured, no longer forcing his idealism upon you, rather, presenting it to you with a self-assured verve that exhibits a new kind of passion.", "...weaves together reggae and world, beats and bongos, Spanish picking and plain ol' rock and roll....Strummer's lyrical form is a delight throughout, shofting mood between resignation and defiance, testing old conceits of the Last Gang In Town against '90s reality...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...Strummer delivers...that bizarre mix of British rock and ethnic rhythms for which everyone knows him....'not' the sound of an old man trying to re-create his glory days. Worth spending both time and money on.", 3 out of 5 - "...an eclectic mix of world beats and textures that yeild mixed results....an exceedingly mellow affair...the songs are pleasant...", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...Strummer dodges punk nostalgia for something both more elusive and more resonant....his old fury has aged gracefully into impressionistic indignation and Dylan-esque significance...", Ranked #37 in Mojo Magazine's "Best of 1999", "...interested more in pointed protest rather than aimless nihilism. The protests continue here....while his lower-key approach allows ska and worldbeat grooves to help carry the message.", "...there are some catchy tunes....And just hearing Strummer's distinctive rasp - which sounds exactly the same all these years later - is oddly heartening." - Rating: B-

Very good. The CD (Joe Stunner) came with a unordered Nils Lofgren CD, who I'd never heard of. I now know I don't like him but it seems to be free so
