If \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe Aren't the World!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e is the better live album thanks to its career retrospective feel and many highlights from the first version of the group, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLocked 'n' Loaded\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e is still a fine enough aural document of the demi-legends having a blast in the land of its greatest successes. A few then-recent cuts surface - 'Cross-Eyed Tammy' and 'Goin' Homo,' from \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSecond Coming\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e, and the theme song from the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKiller Klowns\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e EP, which makes for a fine start. One then hard to find track also surfaced: 'Just Say Yes,' the group's nutty indulgence anthem, which wouldn't get a proper studio release in America for a few more years. Otherwise it's nostalgia galore from the band's early days, with a merry inclusion of various \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStukas Over Disneyland\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e highlights as well, like the glorious pop fun of 'Pretty Please Me' and 'She's a Hunch Back.' 'If Stewart Could Talk' always works best if one actually sees Leonard Graves Phillips talking to his sock-puppet penis, admittedly, but such points are quibbling. The hilarious, bizarro cover versions with which the band helped make its name all surface - 'Eve of Destruction,' 'Paranoid,' 'Gigantor,' 'Banana Splits' - but it's the originals that really showcase the band's continuing appeal. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Dawn of the Dickies\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e classics '(Stuck in a Pagoda) With Tricia Toyota' and 'Manny, Moe \u0026amp; Jack' still are godly power pop punk of the best kind, and who could resist other winners like 'Curb Job' and 'Give It Back'? Add in Phillips' between-song patter and jokes, and the Dickies yet rule their roost.\" -Ned Raggett, AllMusic.com, 4.5\/5 stars\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58363712700741,"sku":null,"price":5.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/8881\/6197\/files\/taang-records-music-vinyl-records-the-dickies-locked-n-loaded-colored-vinyl-red-722975005612-40852210876668.jpg?v=1782304099","url":"https:\/\/midnightukvinyl.com\/products\/locked-n-loaded-the-dickies","provider":"MIDNIGHT GROOVE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
