This was my first exposure to the DDBB. Godd stuff! I'll be coming back for more! "We Got Robbed" (based on an actual incident involving the band) is a lot of fun with it's instrumental interplay and chants of the title. The Eighth wonder of the world Robert Randolph (see "Live at the Wetlands" and "The Word") contributes his soulful steel guitar on "Tell It Like It Is" and "Cissy Strut" (unfortunately, he's barely audible on his other contribution to this effort). Other than that mild complaint, enjoy some REAL (non-synthesized) music that your radio SHOULD be playing!

i bought this record yesterday and immediately went back for another copy b/c i'm sure to wear the first one out. simply put? this is the best funk/jazz/jam record EVER to come out of new orleans. save yourself some money, stay home from jazz fest this year and sit at home with a cold one, throw in medicated magic, and leave it on repeat. this one's a guaranteed desert island classic
