7/20/09 – Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King

After listening to the album a few times, I still cannot tell you who or what the GrooGrux King is.  That won’t stop me from telling you that I haven’t enjoyed a DMB album this much since “Under The Table…”.  My favorite track, “Funny The Way It Is,” is frighteningly poignant (lyrically) for such a lighthearted-sounding song.  The album as a whole has a very old-school DMB vibe to it, which I’m definitely okay with.
