2005, Transsolar Records
For all his work singing and playing over many years, Kid Congo Powers had never released a full solo album as such until Philosophy and Underwear, though to be sure it was with a crackerjack four-piece backing him up. Trashy, sly and hilarious, Philosophy and Underwear is just a joy of an album, Powers showing his zest for life and sense of humor, far from being jaded, is even more appropriate in the 21st century than the 20th. With various guests, including singer Little Annie, helping out as well, the resultant dozen songs make for a treat of a listen. ~ Ned Raggett, allmusic group
