Richard and Linda Thompson's Shoot Out the Lights Bewertungen

Hayden Childs has definitely broken beyond the normal form of rock criticism with his take on Shoot Out The Lights, creating a review of some depth and intelligence, his critique as layered and textured as the album it explores. Whether you're a longtime fan of the Thompsons, or a listener just discovering the brilliant and disturbing Shoot Out The Lights, Childs' book provides the perfect guide to this difficult album. -- Rev. Keith Gordon * Blurt Magazine *
This is an intent, even intense, look at Thompson's careful, multi-layering lyric writing, plus an enthusiastic, if not revelatory, appreciation for his musical gift. * Erasingclouds *
