Review

Jagger's fourth album provides exactly what its title promises, delivering an infectious, uptempo collection of zydeco-country-rock. Jagger's good-natured sense of humor comes to the front on singalongs like "Green Thumb," about a gardening wife, and "Stand Up for the Foot (Don't Give an Inch)," which champions imperial measurement in a metric-based Europe. "Allons Joujette" and "Will Ya Won't Ya" provide more bar-ready zydeco pub-rock. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
