"in 10+ years since hearing a couple of fine tracks off the Jayhawks 'Tomorrow the Green Grass' upon its release in '96, i realised i never got around to buying it (now a v. difficult opus to track down here in Australia). Since it arrived the other day from US (via Amazon) i haven't stopped playing it, & the tunes have stuck in my head since. Not merely a 'country' tinged album, the songs hold more to their basis than first appears, as do their musical arrangements. It has easily withstood the test of time hearing it again now...what some may term classic...but i simply term, damn fine!"

The Jayhawks - Contains Their Best Song "Blue"

"If I remember correctly I first came to notice the Jayhawks after hearing the single from this album, the opening track "Blue". It is still a favorite of mine and one of the best songs this band has ever done. Most Jayhawks fans tend to rate "Hollywood Town Hall" over this album, but for me I think I like this one a bit better. The music is still roots rock Americana with maybe a bit more country influence this time around. Along with "Blue" other highlights include, "I'd Run Away", "Miss Williams Guitar", "Nothing Left To Borrow", "Ann Jane" and the album closer "10 Little Kids". Jayhawks albums never blow me away, but I do like them for what they are. This is another strong effort if you are a fan of this genre of American music."

Sweetly chagrined rock and romantically whimsical alt, the Jayhawks finest CD."
