Crack The Sky - Alive And Kickin' Ass
Reviewed by gary
If you have never heard Crack The Sky or even of them, it's worth noting that some think there are only two kinds of people in this world: those who have never heard CTS, and hardcore fanatics of the band. Culled from two live performances at the Tower Theatre in Philadelphia and The Agora in Cleveland, Alive and Kickin’ Ass features such CTS classics such as "Surf City," "She's A Dancer," "Ice," and "Nuclear Apathy,” and ends with a little piece called "I am The Walrus." Funny thing, that, since John Palumbo, CTS’s lead singer and principal songwriter, always reminded me of McCartney at his best. Maybe the remaining Beatles should regroup with CTS - two great songwriters again and two drummers. Man, I could see them really “kicking Edgar Allan Poe.” [www.crackthesky.com]
