  Vocally, he sounds like a combination of Nick Lowe and Walter Clevenger and musically, the sounds are similar, too. The material here is an energetic and infectious declaration of power pop with straight-up melodies, laced with amble dosings of pure roots pop charm. There`s overwhelmingly catchy vibe here because this material splendorously drift from hard-wired anthemics to more open chorded, gentle sounds to sweeping, accessible and good-natured hook magic ala Badfinger and Blue Cartoon on a few here.
  
  Sure, it may not be everyone and it`s not going to change the music sound/landscape but this parade of pure `n easy pop fun just hits the right notes, the right spunk, the right spirit. Unpretentious, clean joyous fun.
  
  You know it, folks - Extremely Highly Recommeded

Lannie Flowers is a veteran Texan popster with an impressive resume. Honing his skills ever since the late '70s, he fronted his own band The Pengwins, worked with the likes of Jim Dickinson and Rick Derringer. Following the success of his first album of uniquely pieced together short little pop nuggets, “Same Old Story”, he has emerged with yet another gem. And, after successfully mining for even more pop gold in 2010, delivers a record that spins the same old story even further in a new direction. It makes clear, that while we might all be going around in circles, sooner or latter we make it back home. "He tackles everything from mid’60s beat (with the B-bands and Zombies being refered to the most), through early ‘70s melodic crunch (Raspberries, Big Star) or late ‘70s/early’80s new wave (Elvis Costello, Squeeze), to ‘90s Britpop." - Popism.com Yep, it's all in there folks! Chock full of ringing, jangly, crunchy guitars, top-notch full-length songs that would be hits if there was any justice, and superb singing throughout, the record is a start to finish Arctic blast of good ol' fashioned, classic-sounding, no-frills power pop bliss that slots in quite nicely with the aforementioned popsters! And it's all delivered Texas-style! It's a release that stands head and shoulders above the crowd. Like peeling an onion, each listen uncovers another influence, another nuance, that might not have been so obvious the first time around. With all this gushing, we just might have found our favorite pop record of 2010 from an extremely talented guy whose name should be on the tips of tongues of true, dyed-in-the-wool, poppers everywhere! Can't say enough about this one! GREAT!!!
