3/5.03/5.03/5.03/5.03/5.0
Better than expected musically but RS weak performer
Review written by John Fitzgerald, February 27th, 2005

Randy Sharp is a Tom Snow type songwriter that has become more country based over the years and though the country elements are certainly not overlooked here, "Just about love" is musically more rich than I thought it was going to be but like Snow, Sharp is a relatively weak performing presence and at times even the song arrangements can help along the flat feeling on many tracks here that have/had good potential. Billy (listed here as "Billy Burnett" but it seems more likely it is the Billy Burnette we know on this album than other questionable items in this regard in his catalog) sings background vocals on two songs here but I wouldn't say I heard him that clearly on them as he's singing with some others on those tracks. Those songs are the horn featured disco funk of "Mama get ready" and the closing peppy sing song called "Ramblin' song" which features a kazoo type horn sound from which you can draw your own conclusions as to how this song sounds and how seriously it was taken. Regarding the others, the opener "The weekend" is a surprisingly good piano/strings ballad, not how you'd think an album would start, this is the track that sounds the most like Tom Snow and it is probably my current favorite song on the album. "Travelin'" is pleasant but has a dated laid back 70's sound, complete with flute passages etc. and "Do we really have to dance" is upbeat but lacks some needed bite. "Don't worry about tomorrow" is a light acoustic/clave ballad though the steel guitars stay back enough to help keep it listenable while "A young girl" is the piano and strings again but the piano has a slight blues feel this time. "Don't know how I made it" attempts to be an Elton John style piano driven rocker but falls flat and "Good morning sister" is a short fast knee slapping hoe-down country burst. "I just want to love you" is easy pop and the strings are noticeably louder on this one but it's kind of draggy (perhaps that was what was being hidden?) and "Novocain lover" has the return of the bluesy keys but the slow clave and steel guitars shove this song in to country croon territory. "Let your business go" includes punchy piano on this fair jangly mid tempo number and the title track is more country crooning so this may be why I thought the album was more country than it is. Not a bad choice for a title track pick but overall, I think the less country parts here for the most part work best.
