Dr Hook: Bankrupt
John Tobler, ZigZag, November 1975
ONE OR TWO of you (not enough, anyway) may be aware that I compiled a kind of 'Best Of' album of these loonies recently, and I suppose that the best way to evaluate their new album is to work out how many of the tracks on it would qualify for inclusion on a best of, providing that enough room was available.
