This is the fifth album by Eli "Paperboy" Reed, originally out of Boston. He has really got the 50s/60s soul/rock n roll thing down. Every song is really pretty much the same, and this record is way more preachy and gospel-y than ever before. Good record through and through.

Favorites: 2, 4, 9, 11
1. (2:31) Hold Out - Uptempo soulful rock, great harmonies, exactly what you expect from Eli. That voice.
2. (3:31) Your Sins Will Find You Out - Hands down my favorite track. The guitar riff is amazing, mid tempo, love it.
3. (2:50) Cut Ya Down - Uptempo and funky.
4. (4:07) Movin' - Downtempo vocal showcase. Awesome.
5. (2:34) Tomorrow's Not Promised - Uptempo Motown vibe.
6. (3:59) My Way Home - Mid tempo gospel feel.
7. (3:25) Eyes On You - Midtempo, more of the same.
8. (2:56) The Strangest Thing - Uptempo another one that feels like a gospel choir song.
9. (2:40) I'd Rather Be Alone - This is another of my favorites. Downtempo, vintage soul. Great song.
10. (3:14) A Few More Days - Uptempo rock n roll.
11. (2:48) What Have We Done - Acoustic guitar and organs, love this one too, another gospel track. "We destroyed the only place we all come from"
