T Shirt/Final Exam

Louden Wainwright is one of my favorite song writer and artist. He resides in a catagory of his own because his music is extremely versital and introspective. In this CD set, which he made in the 1970's, he sings about issues of the day which sort of dates the music but he also sing songs that appeal univerally. There are few dull or boring songs on this double album. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes his music.

My love of "Final Exam" is enough to support five stars for a two disc set whose first disc, "T Shirt" isn't likely to get much play on my stereo."Final Exam" was the first of Loudon's albums for me and I've always loved all of it. The only track that seems to get much play is "Pretty Little Martha", a tribute to his daughter with brief nods to her famous brother "Rufus".The tracks are clever, the hooks are engaging, and the studio band are terrific. Track after track delivers!

If you remember Drinks with Dinner and Prince Hal Dirge, a couple of Loudon classics, this is reissue is a must buy.

A great cd to buy if you're just getting started with Loudon Wainwright III.This double CD is an awesome deal and a good way to experience some great music.P.S.See LWIII if he comes near your city. Great performer and a very nice man. Love me some Loudon.

Loved it so much I had to buy it twice. Now I have a copy to lend

I am a fan of LWIII and like this one.

great music that may just be his life. Easy to identify with most of the songs.

T Shirt is new to me but I started this search a few years ago looking for FINAL EXAM and was so frustrated Loudon's earlier work was NOT released to CD yet.Final Exam is everything you'd come to expect from an original songwriter with keen insight, a sense or irony, talent and the ability to laugh at himself and take those very faults and exploit them for all they're worth.I hope he made a few bucks on this album and I hope he makes even more with this rerelease.Although it didn't get me sober, it such as heck helped both before and after.Yeah, his kids are talented but check out the original gene pool and take a dip - it's quite refreshing.I rarely 5 star anything but out of gratitude this one deserves it - I was ready to buy the album, get the software and replace the needle on my turntable for this one. My original copy is DOGGED to death.I hope I like T Shirt half as much as I like Final Exam - at any price, it's a steal of a deal.

This is not the Acadia reissue. It’s a CDR

Just as I remember it from 1976
