About
Just what the title says: rock and roll, Modern Lovers style. If you need more info, listen. Possibly best described as adult music made for children. Jonathan Richman is so earnest you can't tell if he is being serious or not - and that is part of the charm. Skates the edge of punk and reggae, but ultimately this is simply fun music. Watch for the horn that comes out of nowhere on "Rockin Rockin Leprechauns"!.
