Yes, the new(ish) album is actually rather great! Which is something of a relief, because the last one (Corporate Moronic) was sort of awful and so I had feared that he had totally lost "it". But it appears he does, in fact, still have at least a bit of "it."

The poll results have inspired me to listen to Bird-Dog for the first time. It's the only LP up there I never got around to in the 90s! Boy is my face red, etc.
