I saw an e-mail flyer that Better Than Ezra was coming to Detroit on October 18th. I didn’t know they were still around but their 90s hit In The Blood sticks out in my head.
It was a catchy song with a cool b&w music video. It’s been years since I have listened to it but I still think it’s a great song.
I never really became a big fan of the band but they were in my album collection during the 90’s.
I guess they kept in the game all these years. I checked out their official site www.betterthanezra.com and it shows that they released their eighth studio album this past year called All Together Now.
I listened to their new single called Crazy Lucky and it sounds like they have gone in a more popish direction now.
I had the album Deluxe on cassette (I feel so old) and I remember only liking a couple of songs. But I played and rewinded the heck out of In The Blood.
The more I reflect about the 90’s rock era the closer those old gems keep popping out at me! Not that I ever tire from revisiting old gems or discovering new ones!
