Review

There's nothing sadder than seeing a talented artist come up with a real bummer, but that's just what this record is. Joe Walsh heads to Memphis to record but comes up way short of anything rockish. Perhaps this is one of those contractual obligation albums you hear so much about. In any event, the back picture of Walsh blowing a big bubble kind of says it all. ~ James Chrispell, All Music Guide
