CD ReviewsDIGGLE JUST KEEPS ON ROCKIN! D. Sloan | PORTLAND, OR USA | 08/05/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "I really like this guy. Both with the Buzzcocks and solo, Steve Diggle has shown a real consistency of songcraft. He's not averse to adding a few new touches here and there (harmonica, electronics, ballads, etc), but with every release, you basically know you're going to hear some good, solid rock `n' roll. This CD is no exception. It's quite strong through all 13 tracks - not a bad one in the bunch. Lots of loud guitars, a little more "groove" oriented than previously, where he lays down a verse or two, then goes off into a guitar solo wonderland, at times almost approaching Neil Young/Crazyhorse intensity. The lyrics are "personal" (as mentioned in the liner notes by Alan Parker) but vague enough not to be too literal. Rather, they evoke a mood with each song, which you can overlay your own emotional history. Fun stuff, and well worth a listen. Keep it up, Steve!"
