Aces And Eights - Long Tall Texans

Advantages: It doesn't matter because the songs are good
Disadvantages: Many of the songs sound similar

...Boys of Summer" written by Michael Campbell and Don Henley So, to the review, song by songs. For the higher rated tracks I've included a sample of the lyrics 1. SO LONG, ASTORIA Rating 8/10 Title track, and a good start to the album. It's loud and very fast, but not at all heavy. I think its about leaving somewhere. Alot of the tracks on the album are either about the end of summer...or girls. "so long, Astoria I found a map to buried treasure even if we come home empty handed we'll still have our stories, our battle scars, pirate ships and wounded hearts broken bones, and all the best of friendships" 2. TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS Rating 7/10 Aeroplanes is the theme of this one...and they take it a bit far really.

Advantages: Good album for dinner parties and cosey nights in.
Disadvantages: Lot of ballads and not enough pop if thats what your looking for.

...!): Jason Perry – Vocals. Daniel P. Carter – Bass, backing vocal and shouting. Giles Perry – Keyboards and backing vocals. Mark Chapman – Guitars. Adam Perry – Drums and Yin’s. ** How Ace Are Buildings? ** Anyway I am drawing your attention away from the review of the CD, here we go: * Turn it Up * The first track on the CD is a kind of intro track to the Album, it uses some of the lyrics form the other songs on the CD. It is a good mellow introduction to “A” and leaves you unaware of what you are about to hear! If that makes any sense at all please say!?! * Foghorn * The second track on the CD, this is a very fast punk rock track with very catchy lyrics, you’ll be singing a long in no time! This song is about a person who doesn’t want to know about all the latest... Read review
