"If you look it up in your dictionary, you'll find that "getting down to brass tacks" means to get down to some sort of serious business. But for NRBQ in general, and specifically on this outstanding album from 2014 it means getting down to the business of making unique, memorable music while also having some serious fun." John DeAngelis from his liner notes The record starts out with the slamming beat from drummer Conrad
