Steve Morse from the globe loved Delivery Man.
another reviewer really liked the classical thing too (sorry, couldn't find that one online.)
2 - Brady
Elvis is King and I'm sure "Delivery Man" won't change that.
3 - The Theory
The Buddy Miller disc looks most promising from that list.
4 - Eric Olsen
very fine, if undiplomatic round-up, thanks Al - the Dictators reissue is worth noting as well.
5 - Aaron, Duke De Mondo
"Some kind of concept thing about how Americans are really stupid to take terrorist threats seriously"
That ain't what the albums about, Al. give it a spin, man. thats the wrong impression you done picked up right there.
6 - Al Barger
I could overlook the politics entirely, if the actual songs were any good. However, I've been thoroughly underwhelmed by everything I've ever heard from this band, so I'm just not motivated to bother. I've yet to hear a single song from this outfit that impressed me.
Is this album way better than anything else they've ever done? If so, I might bother with it.
Plus, there are REAL musicians with records out. Did I mention that there are TWO new Elvis albums this week?

you are underestimating Green Day, Al: they've grown tremendously musically and otherwise since the terrific-if-adolescent Dookie - "Warning" was a great mature rock 'n' roll album - although I haven't heard this new one yet.
