In working with producer Tommy Lipuma, they made an album of superficially perfect love songs-- beautiful tunes all, but overproduced to the point where the feelings behind them are only rarely glimpsed. There are some great songs, though--\"The Road\", \"Driving\", \"Me and Bobby D\" and \"Imagining America\" ​​are some of the best in EBTG's distinguished catalogue--and they manage to make Language a worthy album despite the shortcomings. --Randy Silver\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 022924626029\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0022924626029\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 2292-46260-2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43829474459907,"sku":"7K-OEGA-QWJS","price":12.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/41f6vswiuoL.jpg?v=1679533872","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/language-of-life","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
