| 5.0 classic | dub sean | May 18th 07 |
From the second I started listening to Grand National, until the end of the final track, Gonna Take It, I was in a state of euphoria. It is very hard to top an album like Sunrise Over Sea, but the John Butler Trio has done nothing short of blowing it out of the water. Each track on Grand National gives off a different feeling, some of loving [Funky Tonight], some of sorrow [Caroline], some of politics [Gov' Did Nothin'] and many many more. The catchy choruses of Daniella, Used to Get High, and Gonna Take It are essential to Grand National's success. Losing You features some of the greatest guitar playing I've heard in a long time. Grand National is a great album for new John Butler Trio listeners and an fundamental part of long-time fans.

I just got this and have only givin it one listen but this is one of the best albums to come out so far this year. This typically funky but it see's the band grow with some more solid arrangements, this continues John Butlers run of awesome releases.

Definitely not his best (three tracks on his wife? Come on Butler, its sweet, but two would have been enough) but nevertheless outstanding.
