The song I heard on my local radio station was Big City Baby. I must have heard it about 10-15 times before I found out who sang it. Then one day, I was like, I gotta hear what this band has to offer. I was blown away. If you just listen to this album from start to finish you would understand what I'm saying. The lyrics are right on. The instruments on this album are perfect. Everything seems to flow on this album. You have some fast songs, and slow songs that tell great stories. I might have to mention this has my favorite album of '09 even though it came out in 07. Definitely pick up this album. It will not disappoint.

I first heard of the Charlie Shafter Band on my local radio station also. This is their first release. This and their next release are different to me. 17th & Chicago has a more relaxed/chill feel. It seems as it was produced better and the instruments on that album are fantastic. But I think you can say every bands first release isn't all the best produced.
