MOVE IT ON OVER, George Thorogood's sophomore album, is very much of a piece with his debut. It's a brash, rowdy take on the blues that owes as much to '60s garage bands and punk as it does to Muddy Waters. Thorogood's music isn't about deep feelings; it's about beer, getting down on a Saturday night, and the party to end all parties.
The Kid Flash of '70s blues once again demonstrates his excellent taste in covers. He bashes away energetically at such obscure gems as Chuck Berry's "It Wasn't Me," turns Hank Williams' "Move it on Over" into a guitar boogie, and summons the ghost of Elmore James with surprising skill on "The Sky is Crying." Thorogood changes pace briefly with "Cocaine Blues," Johnny Cash's cautionary country tale.
