| This is the bands 2nd album and it is outstanding. The first singal from the album is "nobody rides for free" and is a tough rockin' sound as well as the whole album. If you enjoy bands like ac/dc then you will enjoy this album. Pick it up! You will love it!

| "Turn of the Screw" great song. Great guitars, the bass really compliments the drums and the rhythm guitars. The chorus in the song I just mentioned is fabulous too. If you can vigorously get your hands on a copy, then get it, youll be glad you did.

| This is one of my all-time favorite albums! Very hard to find but worth the effort. L.A. Anna is a rockin' track and my personal fav. Other great songs include Nobody Rides for Free (the video got some good MTV play), Turn of the Screw, Hot Flash Jelly Roll and Always A Loser.

| Blue Tequila, You couldn't be more right! This is a great band and this is a great album! Some of my favorite songs on this one are, "C'mon Frenchie", "Take What You Get", and "Slammin' To The Big Beat." Truthfully though, I like all of the songs!!

| Probably my favorite DL release. Anyone who likes Kix, AC/DC, Johnny Crash or Jackyl will like it too. "Turn of the Screw (Who's Screwing You)", "Hot Flash Jelly Roll" and "Slammin' to the Big Beat" are exceptional.

| Iīm still having crossed feelings about this band - the albums are fine and the songs great, but itīs just so AC/DC at times (take for example "Slamminī to the Big Beat") - and itīs obvious they even WANT to sound like AC/DC - that I canīt hear any originality at all with this band. Sure, there are other bands imitating AC/DCīs style as well, but Ostergaard even sounds like Bon Scott so much that I canīt help thinking that theyīve counted on that bringing success ever from the beginning.

| Again dynamite from Dirty Looks. Maybe not that good as "Cool From The Wire" was, but really close! Turn Of The Screw, Nobody Rides For Free, L.A. Anna, ALWAYS A LOSER. Those are masterpieces!

| An extremely solid followup to the monumental 'Cool From the Wire'!! Personal favs are many on this record--'Always a Loser' is a classic, if you have to hear one song off it download that one. Great album from these guys!

| Still completely listenable after 15 years. True - very AC/DC, but with that extra bit of sleaze...brilliant!

| I loved In Your Face and Cool From the Wire, so when this one came out I snapped it up the day it was released. I must confess at first I thought it was a bit less focused than the former two albums. However, over time I have really grown to love this CD. Nobody Rides & the title track are classic tracks, but the entire album is enjoyable. I get tired of reading the AC/DC comparisons! If you think they sound like AC/DC then you need to go back and listen to your AC/DC records again & get a clue.

| ROCK & ROLL! Henrick Style!!!! AC/DC and Dirty looks are two different bands that share a common style like SAXON,HEAVEN,and so on... It's the 4/4 beat that does it.

| Dirty Looks seldom disappointed and this was no exception. In fact, an exceptional follow-up to the debut. I guess if pressed for an answer I'd probably say I prefer the debut, but there is little difference. Both are awesome hard rock discs and this has one great enjoyable song after another. My fave is the first track, but another great disc.

| Dirty Looks picked up pretty much where they left off with Turn Of The Screw, although it seems the aggression might be turned up a little bit from the last record. The title track is one of their angriest songs. This band really reminds me of Midnite Dynamite-era Kix, particularly on this album, and that ain't a bad thing. Favorites are the title track, "Nobody Rides For Free," "Take What You Get," and "Slammin' To The Big Beat."

| I realize this will in all probability result in me being labeled a dirty, rotten scumbag, but I just never cared for this band. Too much AC/DC cloneage for my musical taste buds. OK, the title track is a kickin' anthem and "L.A. Anna" sticks in the cerebral cortex pretty well, but two good songs does not a good album make, so I still slot this into the "forgettable" category. The absence of punch in the choruses kills these guys; with better hooks, these boys could've been pretty darn good. I know I'm in the minority here, but when I picked this CD up back in the day and heard a bunch of subpar AC/DC-wannabe tunes, I felt as disappointed as a virgin expecting to screw Megan Fox but ending up in bed with Bea Arthur.

| This LP Rocks front to back, 24/7/365, in the style of late '80s R&R ... period.

| Still one of their absolute best. Title track, 'Nobody Rides for Free', 'Always a Loser', 'L.A. Anna'...the list goes on. You must own this one, "Cool", "Bootlegs", and "5 easy pieces" if you think you are an 80's hard rocker. The others have good music, but more so for the collector and hardcore fan (which of course, I hope you will become!). Those 4 CDs are what you really need to own, from Dirty Looks. You might forget them for a bit, but then something will make you pull up a song on Spotify and...well, down that rabbit hole you go, thank goodness.
