Dr. Hook: Sloppy Seconds
Charlie Gillett, Rolling Stone, 29 March 1973
IF YOU LOOK at the pictures and read the stories, youll have guessed that Dr. Hook is a bunch of lascivious layabouts dedicated to carrying us through to a new era of demented debauchery. Listen to the first track on this album, and youll know you were right. "All the fags and dikes, they boogyin together...freakin at the Freakers Ball."
