5 out of 5 stars Don't Listen & Drive unless you have Cruise Control.......2007-03-10

Crank it up and rock on. This is a great bluesy, rock and roll album that always makes me want to dance. Shake, Rattle, and Roll; just be careful when driving to watch the speedometer.

5 out of 5 stars HUEY'S HAVING SOME FUN.......2007-01-18

I really enjoyed this offering from Huey Lewis and the News. Harmonies are tight, music is tight, and they put a little different spin on these "Other People's Hits". By the way, if you have never seen Huey live in concert, you are definately missing a great show.

4 out of 5 stars Nice lighthearted collection of tunes.......2006-06-20

Fans always have mixed feelings when their favorite artist takes a stab at another project that may be a little outside the norm.

This record is definitely a departure from the "classic" sound of Huey Lewis and News. Matter of fact, Huey's raspy voice is really the only recognizable element that would make you ask your self, "What a minute, isn't that Huey Lewis?"

I don't remember exactly how this record joined my collection, but I suspect I purchased it while browsing countless material in used music shops in the mid to late 90's. I was never a huge Huey Lewis fan, I think I maybe owned "Sports" before this one, so the fact that I chose this over one of the band's more established pop records is a mystery to me.

It's a nice lighthearted collection of tunes, I enjoy "But It's Alright," "You Left the Water Running," and "Your Cash Ain't Nothin' but Trash."

5 out of 5 stars Shake, Rattle, and (Especially) Roll: A Lil' Bit More Than Decent My Friends.......2006-05-25

I first heard this CD driving around the streets of Dubai, UAE, with a displaced American yearning for a taste of home. It blew my roots of rock socks off.

I hated Huey and the gang growing up. Blek. Not good Pop; not even close to good rock. Indecisive. Here The News is: this is everything Rock and Roll couldn't be when it first got pumpin' in the 50s. Huey and the Comets take a good thing and make it great.

Do you throw Mary Tyler Moore parties? Put this CD on and for one entire CD, your party won't stop dancing. I love this album.

Alone on a desert island, I'll take this 4 Chords to make me happy and. . .a Tom Waits album to remind me that I'm. . .alone on a desert island.

2 out of 5 stars Shake`s sometimes, but sometimes it does`nt ........2006-02-27

This is a weird one. To bring his 8o ths "hip to the square" style to some classical rock and roll songs. It`s a so so listening, that put`s Huey Lewis all over the song`s but have problem`s to bring us back to 5o ths. It start`s ok with the soulfull saxophone on Shake Rattle and Roll, on track 1, but
then Lewis voice doesn` fit`s in in a way. Track 2 Blue Monday, has a good musical background atmosphere, but the vocal one brings it down. The saxophone is great anyway. Track 3 Searching for my love, is a sentimental weepie, and the quality mark weeps too. Track 4 She`s somekind of wonderful, is more in the Lewis 80 ths style, and this one works. On Track 5 But it`s alright we are back in the "stream of cliches" once again. It`s anyway ok in a way. Track 6. If you gotta make fool of somebody, sounds like "poor manns"Burt Bacarach,which is a minor stepdown.
Track 7 Mother in Law, is an upstiffer, and on this one Huey "steps" on the right buttons, all trough. Track 8 Little Bitty Pretty One, is an even better song. The only 5 star song on this CD, with it`s tempo up beat rock and roll rythm all trough. This one shines. Track 9 Good Morning little school girl, is an ok, blues song, which another vocal than Huey (or it could be?) brings some flaire to the song. Track 10 Stagger Lee, is a classic. The original is better. Track 11. She shot a hole in my soul. Yes she does and Huey does too, when i listen to it. Bad to the bone this, with it`s hybrid 50 th`s and 80 ths soundpicture. Track 12 Surley i love you, sound`s like a "comic book song", and is more "cartoon" than rock and roll. Track 13 You left the water running, is cool, and has a certain temperature all trough. Track 14 Your cash ain nothin but trash, has some guts, but it doesn`t kicks off . Track 15 Function at the junction has big band flair, but that`s all. Track 16 Better to have and not need, it`s "urban big band beat" as poor man`s blues brothers, but that`s not a quality mark on this one, but it sparks here and there sometimes. Track 17 Going down slow, is a fast "blues rock and roller" that sparks lively.
As a whole this one shake`s sometimes, but on most of the track`s it doesn`t. That`s it folks !

    5 out of 5 stars I like the Gorilla mask.......2004-09-13

    I thought versus GoD was a lacking and though that the move to FAT wreck Chords would hurt them but it just seemed to rejuvenate this band and got them into the public eye. Sounding much fresher an fiercer I think this album rivals their debut.

    5 out of 5 stars As essential as "Midwestern Songs...".......2004-06-24

    If you only buy one Dillinger Four album, buy "Midwestern Songs..." Of course, then you'll be upset that you can only buy one D4 album and you'll kill, cheat, and steal to get your hands on "Situationist Comedy." Again, Dillinger Four manages to take the best in insightful political lyrics and catchy, hook-filled pop punk, throw in a great blend of their two lead vocalists (Erik and St. Paddy), and come up with a timeless record. I couldn't even think of a dud on this disc, though I think my favorite (and this was a tight race, folks) is "New Punk Fashions for the Spring Formal."

    If you like music, you'll like Dillinger Four.

    5 out of 5 stars BEST CD I'VE EVER HAD (SERIOUSLY).......2003-03-11

    Alright. I just have to say that these guys are so damn good. For the past 3 months I have listened to the whole cd every day during my free period in school. GOD!!! The cd is so amazing. Most of my cd's only have a few good songs, so I have to skip around for the good ones. But not these guys. I honestly listen to every song in the whole cd, they're that forkin' good. wow. Buy this cd, just trust me, it's so good it's crazy.....

    5 out of 5 stars Infectious Riffs and Solid Rock!.......2002-12-24

    I got this album when it came out, and I've been listening to it ever since!

    There's not much more to say. If you're a fan of D4's past efforts or enjoy raw, loud rock, there's no reason you shouldn't add "Situationist Comedy" to your CD collection immediately. St. Patrick and the boys can add another victory notch to their belts.

    Stand-out tracks include "Noble Stabbings," "A Floater Left With Pleasure in the Executive Washroom," "SELLTHEHOUSESELLTHECARSELLTHEKIDSFINDSOMEONEELSEFORGETITI'MNEVERCOMINGBACKFORGETIT," and "Fuzzy Pink Handcuffs."

    With Har Mar Superstar and D4 rocking the masses, the St. Paul/Minneapolis music scene has regained it's well-deserved hipster status.

    By the way, I saw this album was on Avril Lavigne's "11 Best Albums of the Year" list. Perhaps the band shouldn't have turned her away from the backstage festivties at their Los Angeles show. On second thought, celebrity denials are about as punk rock as it gets.

    As always, I look forward to the next D4 album.

    5 out of 5 stars take a wild guess, it's frickin' dillinger four!.......2002-11-08

    I'm just going around and reviewing dillinger four albums cause they're my favorite band. This album is beautiful, so buy it or buy another one of their albums, but for christ's sake, don't let another minute pass without hearing these guys if you never have before!

        Favorable comparisons to Leatherface, Jawbreaker, Small Brown Bike...melodic punk with big sounds recorded in a good studio. Vocals that are gruff, yet display a wide range and the ability to drag the listener in with great, catchy melody as well.
