"WOW, what can I say. I have a friend who turned me on to Soulhat five years ago. I should have married him. I listened to nothing else for 4 weeks after I bought this CD. And I have listened to it periodically since then. Everytime I hear the album I fall in love with it. I put it in the CD player again tonight and was inspired to check out if there was a new album at Amazon. They really have a tight album here. One of my all time favorites. A must have for anyone who is or wants to be a serious music fan. I have no idea why they are not more commercially popular? Maybe the great ones are not appreciated until they are dead."

"soulhat is most certainly one of america's great rock and roll bands, and this album proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt. while outdebox is more acoustically driven good to be gone is straight up electric rock and roll. This record represents soulhats more ornry side and should be heard as loud as you can get it. These four musicians are as tight as a band can be, the lyrics are smart and interesting, and despite the hard edge sound, the funk flows from beginning to end. Soulhat should not be pigeon holed as a jam band, the appeal goes far beyond that. if you are questioning buying this, throw your doubts away, it is well worth the pennies they are asking for, so cough it up, you wont be sorry."
Beyond your expectations

"This CD will take you past any expectations you may have. I have listened to it about 20 times now, in the past 2 months, and I love it more each time. I go back and repeat tracks five or six times during the listening. Go for it."
A little Soulhat update. . .

"It's weird. . . just when it looked like these guys were about to take off, they just sort of disappeared. I'm not sure why this happened, but after a couple of years of playing in various other bands in Austin, they came back. At first, the new Soulhat only consisted of three people-all the original members minus one guitar player. Recently, the lineup's changed again-now with the same singer, same drummer, new bass player and new guitar player. The 3-man lineup put out a new album last fall, but I don't think it was distributed by a large label. Unless you live in Austin or maybe Dallas, I'm not sure how or where you can get it.The new album's good and the band is sounding as good as ever live. Still playing a lot of material from Good To Be Gone as well as a bunch of new stuff. Glad to have them back."
