personal opinion is this album is a over all a good album and enjoy all the Dirty Guv'nahs music and lyrics. ABY WE WERE YOUNG (Jenkins/Trimble) Young love, won’t you come and sit real close to me? For the first time, I’ve got you by my side Darling, don’t you know that you’ve got the shaky knees? Gotta roll the windows down inside your mind Love was the shape we made Love was the breath we drew Youth was in our blood and baby we were young Nineteen and twenty-three, with just four years between We fell in love on Read more on Last.fm.
The Dirty Guv’nahs can best be imagined if Mick Jagger and his boys hopped in a time machine and came back as post-grad-looking rockers who don’t do as many drugs as their rolling counterparts did “back in the day”.
With an energetic live show that screams “Exile on Main Street,” these guys have developed quite a large following around the Southeast. This record is a culmination of their rising success. The opening tune could be heard at your local watering hole or as the walk-out music for Chipper Jones (Come on, man, Crazy Train is getting old). The record that follows is bright at times and dark at others. It is quick and upbeat, slow and “balladous”. Either way, I would highly recommend checking out this record.
If you like: American Aquarium, the Rolling Stones, The Drive-By Truckers, Jason Isbell, then you will dang sure like the Dirty Guv’nahs.
Best tracks: Youth Is In Our Blood, Blue Rose Stroll, Baby We Were Young and We’ll Be the Light
