It's probably not great career advice but there are times on this, the third album by the Wallflowers, where you think Jakob (son of Bob) Dylan might be more convincing if only he lost the band (or should that be The Band?)
Some of the lattersparser ballads here, like the Springsteenish Mourning Train and Up From Under indicate the blue-eyed boy might well be hiding his singer-songwriter light under the bushel of his plodding folk-rock outfit.
While they're certainly capable of replicating a Heartbreakers/E Street Band guitar-and-organ earthiness, this album's backbone of folk-rockers like Letters from the Wasteland and Hand Me Down are AOR-tasteful to a fault, leaving those downtempo numbers to show there is some real character in this Dylan's songs.
