Editorial Review from Amazon.com:

Wayne Hancock's piercing, nasal tenor reminds one immediately of Hank Williams Sr., but unlike a lot of neo-hillbillies, this young Texan resembles his hero without any trace of reverence or irony. On his second album, IThat's What Daddy Wants/I, Hancock cruises through a dozen originals and one remake ("Brand New Cadillac") with a naturalness that's disarming. As you listen to these songs about barrooms, bedrooms, and badlands, you find yourself thinking not about the history of the bygone honky-tonk and rockabilly styles that Hancock draws on but about "that gal with the blue dress on" and "a thousand miles of open desert road." As a songwriter, Hancock simply recycles the two-step rhythms, three-chord changes, 12-bar blues, four-lane highways, and two-women troubles of his favorite old records. He invests this ordinary material with exceptional life, however, thanks to the irresistible vitality of his vocals. Whenever he comes to a key word in a song, he stretches it out into an aching drawl before turning it into a low growl or a high yodel. Joe Ely's old pedal steel guitarist, Lloyd Maines, produced the album with admirable restraint, giving Hancock's voice lots of room but also egging it along with hints of Western swing and Dixieland. I--Geoffrey Himes/I

One of a kind, 2007-04-12
Yeah, another great Wayne album. He even does a little bit of a surf-rock thing on "Brand-New Cadillac", but it's all good.

Best Hancock album put out., 2006-05-23
I have every Wayne Hancock album out and this album is my favorite with Thunderstorms Neon signs slightly trailing it. For Me there is nothing better than the groove of "Johnny Law" and the pacing of Highway 54.....Those two songs alone are worth the price of admission. The reason I like this album the best is because you can tell Wayne's not holding back on this album with his voice..you get the yodels, you get the hollers, and its not as soaked with the slow blues. This is as close as you can get to Roots Rockabilly. Now I'm not saying that his other albums are bad by no means....I still cherish them, but This album Thunderstorms you can still hear that young spark in his playing and voice.....defintitely the creap of the crop. br /Wayne - Keep on fightin the good fight!

Great American Music!, 2000-05-13
"If misery was a crime then I'd always be serving time"...what a great lyric! Wayne is one of those artists that defy easy classification and that's what I like about him. I was blown away by this record when I first heard it. Passionate, visceral and original, Wayne knows how to make good ole American music with flair and style!

Wayne the Train Hancock, 1999-10-16
If you can't go see Wayne live, buy this album. His music is reminiscent of Hank Williams Sr, but has its own ideas and twists. It has a hard edge to it, but it can be sentimental. poh heck, just listen to the clips and buy it for yourself. it is good stuff.

Like A RainStorm To Your Drought-full Ears, 1998-10-27
Wayne Hancock's voice and music hits you like the ringing of the ice cream truck from your second floor room down the street - immediately and wholly dominates your being. Whatever you're doing before that sudden unexpected sound is forgotten; whether you answer that call by running out the door scrambling for change along the way, or let it pass moving further away with every chime - your pulse has started to race and something wont let you sit still no more.
