I just saw Matthew Sweet two weeks
ago down at the TLA in Philly, based mostly on two songs that I knew:
Sick of Myself and Girlfriend. It was a great show!
Then Bill V (who also attend the show) tells me that Matthew Sweet's
Girlfriend album is the best album of the 90s. Wow! Although
I will put Dada's Puzzle up against anybody, Bill V has to
be taken seriously. So I went out an bought this CD.
Needless to say,
it is excellent. I would say 9 to 10 of the 15 songs could have been
hit singles, but nobody promotes rock 'n roll anymore. Oh well. Anyway,
this CD will be in my glove compartment for a long time. This is definitely
one that should be in your collection too. Oh, and is it better than
Puzzle? It's a close call!
