This cd has so many great songs, many i didnt even think kol actually made. Well worth buying,

I got this album the day it came out and never looked back. . If you thought the latest album was good wait until you hear this one. It isn't quite as poppy as the albums that succeed it such as Aha Heartbreak and Only by the Night. But instead it has a bluesy feel to it with a strong southern rock n roll edge. Memorable songs include Wasted Time, California Waiting and Mollys Chambers, although with that said there is no filler on this album and every song delivers the goods.

Youth and Young Manhood displays a picture of their adolecent antics that are the roots from which the band have grown to become today; this hails as a massively under-valued piece of artwork and an essential to anyones collection.
