village voice / chuck eddy: "that these remarkable former alt-country musicians land next to grandaddy on your
alphabetized cd shelf makes some sense since both groups carry folk-roots pastorals into a bong-smoke realm. but grandpa's
ghost are alot more guitar-explorationally rock about it, which explains why joe carducci signed them to his record label.
and that they're from an illinois town called pocahontas is cool, too, even though they're alot closer to side 2 of
'rust never sleeps' than to side one, especially if crazy horse was a kraut-rock band
