Always The BombNovember 4, 2006 E. Graves This is definitely the best Rev. compilation put together yet. Now we just need a really good live album to capture the Rev. at his finest. This is a must have for people just getting into the Heat.

A Hearty Serving Of The RevFebruary 19, 2006 plainwhite(usa) The Reverend Horton Heat make some great rockabilly tunes, and a large number of their best offerings can be found on this compilation. My only complaint is that "Liquor,Beer,and Wine" is not included. If youre looking for some good stuff thats a little different from your normal everyday rock, then check out The Rev.
