        :: Release Notes:
        ::
        ::  Steve Strauss with his laid-back style of guitar playing (a
        ::  quality further developed by fellow Stockfisch musicians like
        ::  Chris Jones) is none other than a poet. You can feel this
        ::  when he sings of the golden era of youth spent in the shadow
        ::  of the Argyle Bridge when war was only real in far-off
        ::  countries. You can feel this when in Angel in the beginning
        ::  meant to be a comment on life in New York, which after
        ::  September 11th reached an even deeper level of meaning û he
        ::  sings of emptiness, loneliness, homelessness.
        ::
        ::  In just like love Strauss creates a mixture of traditional
        ::  tunes and touchingly naive lyrics (Sunday Best) and critical
        ::  views of society (as in his cover version of the Springsteen
        ::  classic Youngstown). While even in Jerusalem (Powderhouse
        ::  Road) he sounded a bit like T.S. Eliots poem The Journey of
        ::  the Magi, the title track Just Like Love and the cryptic The
        ::  Dirt are introspective musings, and Steves play reaches a
        ::  dreamlike intensity.
