Decent exercise in style, but doesn't quite work

"It's soulful dance rock in the style of the Rolling Stones, but it rolls smoother than the stones, and the lead singer doesn't have as good of a voice. The problem with this recording is that the songs don't quite stick as well as they should because they're so smooth and attribute that to the production it's so smooth, and I think the band would fair better with a slightly rawer sound. There are still really good pop songs like:Six Pacs, Come Love Me, Oh, How She Gave Me Love, and the song about an angel. I wouldn't recommend the album to anyone, though. Fans of the short-lived series "Young Americans" might want to download "Six Pacs" because it was the very catchy them song."
Outstanding

"I bought this albumn because I had heard the song six pacs on the show young americans. I had never heard of the getaway people before this as I live in england, but based on this CD alone I know I will be buying there other stuff, and any future albumns. The best songs are definetly six pacs, there she goes, and the unlisted remix of she gives me love. Though the other songs on the albumn are just as good."
