But for NRBQ-in general, and specifically on this outstanding album from 2014-it means getting down to the business of making unique, memorable music while also having some serious fun. -John DeAngelis from his liner notes The record starts out with the slamming beat from drummer Conrad Choucroun, featured on the most fun song Waitin on My Sweetie Pie from guitarist Scott Ligon.
