The title track is a powerful statement of an urban rock & roller who has "walked the streets where my best friends died." Forty eight minutes and fifty one seconds of Johnny Thunders style rock - without Thunders celebrated excesses. Much like Marianne Faithful's Broken English, this album is a rebirth for a survivor who honed his craft for decades on stages of major venues and in many a night club. Asa Brebner has played guitar in numerous Boston-based groups from Mickey Clean and The Mezz to the second great version of Jonathan Richman's Modern Lovers, half of which evolved into Robin Lane & The Chartbusters. Utilizing eight different studios, mastered in a ninth, Jon Wyner's M-Works where David Bowie's catalog was re-mastered for Ryko Disc, these are all Brebner originals with the exclusion of Jacks On Drugs, written by Phil Hahnen. Ex-Archies - you read that right - onstage anyway - and Chartbuster colleague Scott Baerenwald of the local legends Reddy Teddy plays bass and sings backing vocals on Sunshine And Blue Skies, one of the many highlights on this disc, not coincidentally recorded at Ducky Carlisle's Room 9. Ducky was married to Robin Lane at the time of this recording although, sadly, she does not make an appearance. Unhappy Birthday Girl is the kind of song that Jonathan Richman used to craft for his fans. Mr. Richman would do well to listen to this disc by his former bandmate. Brebner gives his pop songs that roots rock foundation that made the early Rolling Stones so appealing. It's evident in this track. No Good For Anything But Love has an effective riff augmented by vocals that make this no nonsense rock & roll the fans of The Modern Lovers have yearned to hear again, with a splashy appearance by The Heavy Metal Horns on this track. The sound is surprisingly consistent for working in so many studios and employing so many musicians. Love Only Makes The World Go Round is very radio friendly, and another of the picks on this CD. Don't Ever Lose A Memory brings that Thunders connection back - Johnny Thunders having written the classic You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory. There's lots of heartache on this disc, culminating in the campy Thru With Girls which has mandolin, banjo and acoustic guitar courtesy of Andrew Mazzone. It's back to business with Sunshine Blue Skies, the production by Brebner and Mazzone is perfect, something that was lacking in the Robin Lane albums. There is a refinement here, a balance of the distortion of rock & roll and capturing it for the intended audience. Jacks On Drugs has that vintage Boston boom boom sound. I'm Not Going To Work Today, recorded in Brebner's attic with Allen Devine on vocals, is a country- style experiment where the artist gets to stretch. Turn ...
