Susan Baker
San Francisco - Pure rock n' roll still lives in some secret chambers, undiluted by the commercial forces of MTV...

Album Description
Known throughout San Francisco for their eclectic "punk groove," jimmyjack's self-titled debut album encapsulates the wide range of this diverse trio. Dubbed everything from spy-groove to epic surf punk, this collection of genre bending songs captures the high-energy sound of this most original band.

5 out of 5 stars Great Kickin' Music.......2001-03-25

When i first got this cd i knew it was going to be good but i was wrong... it was GREAT i love this cd i listen to it all the time my favorite song is steps of sand it reminds me of sleep walk very groovy song no volcals its great if your reading this GET THIS CD!!

5 out of 5 stars when stylistic digression can be a good thing...........2001-01-02

Just when you thought it was over, you put this disc in your CD player and voila! stylistic digression is suddenly a good thing all over again. Sometimes the grooves remind one of any number of SF bands (Seven Seconds, any Alternative Tentacles band, TFUL #282, etc...) merged with a soulful melange of surf punk reminiscent of Agent Orange, Man or Astroman? without the pose)and sometimes kicking all these grooves within seconds of each other in the same song...the instrumental tracks She's the Sheriff and Steps of Sand are the standouts although the opener Got the Money and Save the Scientist (another instrumental) are hard charging slabs of the aforementioned sound. Get this and just pretend you're surfing.....

5 out of 5 stars That's one jammin' band!.......2000-12-12

This band has something for everybody. My 14 year old niece AND my mother both like it! Great energy, diverse range of styles, and yet all the songs still manage to have an underlying thread that connects them.
