JETHRO, WE HARDLY KNEW YE BoDEANS Love & Hope & Sex & Dreams (Slash/Warner Bros.) by Billy Altman Considering what a shambles most so-called “roots” bands are making out of plain old rock ’n’ roll these days, it’s a distinct pleasure to discover an album with as much simple respect for, and exhilaration in, the basic elements of the form as is displayed on the debut effort of Waukesha, Wisconsin’s BoDeans.
