I've got to be honest and say that "Out of Here" is my least favorite
Corduroy disc. Its not terrible, but compared to their other cd's its pretty
bland. It is questionable (for me at least) if it is even acid jazz at all.
It is filled with silly vocals and is VERY 60's British pop sounding
(Beatles, Dave Clark Five) and lacks the raw grooves and cheese as their
earlier stuff, such as "High Havoc". A few good tracks, but over all a
disappointment knowing what they're capable of.
