One Way Home (5 out of 5 stars) LOVE this album. Everyone remembers the Hooters first album with hits like And We Danced and All You Zombies, but this, their second album, is really where the band finds its identity. Karla with a K is a perfect storm of Cajun, Celtic and American folk sounds interwoven seamlessly with driving rock guitars. The mix of blues, reggae, ska and more in songs like One Way Home, Graveyard Waltz, Fightin on the Same Side and Washington s Day are years ahead of the musical trend that eventually came to define adult-alternative radio stations like WXPN-FM, RadioIoParadise, etc. Anyone who likes the acoustic/electric semi-folk-rock of the 90s and 00s should go back and marvel at just how awesomely the Hooters did it first.
