Lead single “In One Hand ( And Out The Other)” and “You’re My Brand” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. I am not a real Blues music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Cryin’ For The Moon’ really is amazing. There is so much to love about The Smokin’ Joe Kubek Band, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. If you want to hear real Blues, get this record now!
You’re My Brand is a song that takes you on the journey before it reaches the conclusion. You Haven’t Hurt Me is The Smokin’ Joe Kubek Band’s best work in years. I came to like Corn Palace. The opening track If It’s The Last Thing I Do is very much like you would expect from other albums. I’ve found myself listening to One More Song back to back and back many times. Album opener Cryin’ For The Moon is a bright, upbeat ditty. Strong percussion and poignant lyrics of this track really gets under your skin. The Smokin’ Joe Kubek Band offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. Step On It is a romantic if not formulaic ditty. You’re So Hard To Understand catches attention immediately, Awesome song is really all that you can say about it.
