I've been choosing to refrain from commenting on the songs to keep my longwindedness out of the way, but on the insistence of cousin Paul and my friend K-Dawg, I'll do 2-3 sentences above each song going forward. Almost always, when someone says "if you like Springsteen, you'll like this." I love Springsteen and almost always, I can't stand the stuff at all. The Gaslight Anthem is a rare exception, maybe because they're not a soundalike artist but one who's influenced not largely by the Boss but from some of his same influences and contemporaries, from r&b to the Clash.

Ike Reilly - Commie Drives A Nova
This ex-Marine and very nice family guy in my experience has had a brilliant music career. Look him up. This is my favorite song from his first solo album which is one of those rare ones where every song is really good. I'd be a jerk if I didn't link to Duty Free from the same album which was good enough that Cracker covered it and had a hit with it.
