I believe this is her strongest album. It's a shame they haven't given it the royal treatment like they did her debut album. Even more because of the b-side singles. Some great live material came off all those singles. I believe I own them all.
Royal Station is the real gem here with honorable mention going to Testify. Of course the title track and Sleep While I Drive are top notch as well. The Angels is another great tune. No Souvenirs (the hit) rocks.
I can't say enough about this album but get it. Even better (Island), remaster it and make it a double. (ON THE DOUBLE)!
SOLID ALBUM! |

| Product came promptly and was in new condition shrink wrapped and played great. I already loved this on cassette but wanted it on CD. |

if you are a Melissa Etheridge fan,this is why.if you are not,
you will be after you give this one a listen.this is her 2nd
album and there is no sophomore jinx here.her later efforts
have an unfourtunate propensity to be very overproduced--
no such problem exists with this effort.every song on this
album is perfect,simple Melissa--no bells and/or whistles
are needed or expected.this is an exceptional set of songs
from an exceptional artist--doing what she does best and
enjoying it.there are no weak or "filler" tunes here--just a
thoughly enjoyable album from start to finish.this is a very worthwhile expenditure of your entertainment $.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone looking for high quality,well
recorded music.

| I saw her at the "flats" in Cleveland almost 20 years ago, doing songs from her very first LP. She was jammin. I love her music cause it actually ses something. For me, it's about her music in and of itself-the stories. They have heart and soul. Sometimes they don't go the way you want them to..seems to be a lot of pain but it's real. I love the way she tells her stories. It's not about her sexual preference and its not about her stance on the political merry-go-round. If I want that, I'll watch the news. I just love all her music and this is one of the best, aside from her very first. |

Some of her best work is found on this album. It's much more raw and continues the sound of her first album. This is not as refined and radio friendly as her later albums but it shows her in top form. The song 'No Souvenirs' had some airplay but the best cuts can only be found by digging in.
One of her best songs, 'Royal Station 4/16, rolls along at a frenetic pace, accompanied by Bono on the harmonica. The album, as a whole, is not as dark as her debut but it's definitely on the moodier side. A terrific follow-up to a stellar debut.
