Our Take

SOUTHSHIDE JOHNNY / ASBURY JUKES - I DON'T WANT TO GO HOME / THIS TIME IT'S FIN
Rating: 8.7

Welcome to the Jersey Shore, where the music is as gritty as the sand between your toes. Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes have been keeping the spirit of rock 'n' roll alive for decades, and their double album "I Don't Want to Go Home / This Time It's for Real" is a testament to their enduring legacy.

"I Don't Want to Go Home" kicks off with the infectious title track, a rollicking ode to never wanting the party to end. Johnny's soulful vocals are backed by a tightly knit band that knows how to groove. The horn section adds a touch of R&B flair, giving the album a sound that's uniquely Jersey.

As we segue into "This Time It's for Real," the mood shifts slightly, with more introspective lyrics and a slightly more polished production. Tracks like "Without Love" and "Check Mr. Popeye" showcase Johnny's songwriting chops, while "First Night" brings a touch of Motown magic to the mix.

Throughout both albums, the Asbury Jukes prove that they can rock just as hard as their more famous peers from across the river. With its blend of rock, soul, and R&B, "I Don't Want to Go Home / This Time It's for Real" is a double shot of Jersey Shore magic that will have you reaching for your dancing shoes and a bottle of beer. Cheers to Southside Johnny and the gang for keeping the party going strong.
