Flat Duo Jets "Introducing..." 1994

Introducing is another ripsnorting winner, mixing a handful of apt cover choices (including Otis Redding's "I've Been Loving You Too Long," which gets tender, sensitive treatment, and Bo Diddley's "Pretty Thing," which rattles like a jalopy going downhill with a busted axle as Crow attempts to demonstrate a three-handed version of Bo's signature beat) and a full supply of Dexter's originals.

These are our boys. The most natural of musical traditions have coalesced into this fluid Rock and Roll unit. It is an expression of zen purity that is the true voice of guitar punkabilly in the lifted face of the Mtv quasi-reality our generation has been force-fed. There is no pretention in either my words or their music. It is all so real. There is no option but to believe it. Internet sound clips won't cut it... you must see it... feel it... breathe it... - By Jack H Edinger (Chapel Hill, North Carolina)
