“Oh boy, the Flanks got a special mention on the home page. Original jug band sounds, authentic instruments, a mean harp, and some very funky rhythms all add up to a whole lotta fun. Listen carefully to the excellent musicianship amidst the celebration.”

“Don't just pass this off as country. True, it's acoustic and twangy (with a little Opry yodel in the middle), but if you listen closely, the downbeat is blues, the lyrics are blues, and the emotion is blues, along with some good-natured finger-pointing and laughing at the hapless subject of the song. Hint: it's not the briefcase. I can't stop listening to this song.”

“ragtime meets dixieland meets country....gotta love it. Toe tapping, great instrumentals.”
