Record Review - Rock n Roll Jesus - Kid Rock
Jul 1^st, 2008 at 5:43pm

I've only breifly heard this record one time, but I've just borrowed it tonight. My impression from the first listen that other day when someone else played it, was that the Kid is kinda underrated. Anyway, after I give it a good listen I gonna review it or try. (whatever that means). I always ignored the guy. Maybe I was mistaken. We'll find out in the next couple hours.

Rock n Roll Jesus?
IMO he ain't even an apostle.

Heard that Werewolves Of London ripoff a coupla times and got the douche chills...

You want some Jesus?
Pick up the reissue of Nick Lowe's 'Jesus Of Cool'.

But wasn't that an (perhaps lame) attempt at some subtle humor? I don't think his intention was to ripoff.

"I gonna review it or try"

Sorry. No I ain't ....too much work and I really have a short attention span. So far so good though. I'm stumbling between a 6 or a 7. Mood has alot to do with it. The sax on the New Orleans song was good. The session musicians would seem to be well paid

Yeah, could be.
Not subtle - or funny - to me though.

On the other hand, if ol' Warren went all 'Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner' on the Kid...

I'm sorry. It]' oK...but I should have trusted my instincts. For a moment I thought I might have found a great record. I guess I'll plug into some Old Stones and can the new Kid Rock. I'll give it a five....I like some of the songs. He did get to wed Pamela Anderson. I strive to be fair. Sorry about the false alarm.

Hey, if banging Pam Anderson is one of your entertainment criteria, check out some Mötley Crüe and Poison while you're watching Joanie Loves Chachi...

His first couple of albums were crap but I can listen to his newer country and rock stuff.
