“CREATURE COMFORTS
CD REVIEW (exerpt; See full review at The Boise Weekly and in our blog).
Kick off your cowboy boots and throw on your dancin' shoes. With some bands, the music demands that you set aside your BMW-driving,9-to-5,pent-up personality for a little guitar-pluckin',finger-lickin',toe-tappin',taters-in-your-stew-style sing-a-long songs. High Desert Band's Creature Comforts is the type of music to get you out dancing with your kids.
Songs like "Makin' Noise," with a chorus of "Well I'd honk,toot,squawk,and growl,then haul off and hoot like a big ole' owl" and the mid-song Donald Duck impression, are sure to get little ones singing and stompin', learning the words easily. It makes for a great family chorus on a car ride. "The Road Less Traveled" mentions leaving Boise (the "big city") by name and talks about taking the slow road to anywhere at all.
