This is one of the best rock albums from the 90's. Walter Salas-Humara is a brilliant song writer. Great production - minmal with a terrific "live" sound, raunchy guitars, great instrumentation. When you get fed up with the overly-dubbed, overproduced drivel that floods the airwaves - put this disk in, turn it up, and bask in it's honesty.....

"Susan Across the Ocean" is the best Silos album. For confirmation, just check out the title track, a solo accoustic ode to lost love sung mournfully by Walter Salas-Humara, the band's long time leader. I defy you not to get a tear in your eye. The rest of the album is quite good as well, particularly "The Sounds Next Door," "Nothing's Gonna Last" and the great cover of Michael Hall's "Let's Take Some Drugs and Drive Around." The Silos country-tinged rock sound is backed by excellent violin playing. Definately a keeper that deserved a wider audience.

I'm a spanish girl and I don't now how to get the liric about 'SUSAN ACROSS THE OCEAN'.

Somebody can help me? I love this song and I want to know the liric.

Thank you very much.

walter never ceases to amaze me. he is truly a master craftsman...and as usual, goes unnoticed. no matter how many times i listen to the song 'susan' tears appear. and 'let's go get some drugs'...well, its probably one of the best driving around songs ever created.
