However, "Loaded" does manage to bring back some of the hip-swinging rhythms and energy that marked Martin's previous hits. Although his vocals were once again mostly obscured by the pounding beat, the amazingly fast, tight rhythms provide "Loaded" (and its Spanish counterpart, "Dame Ms") with an unmatched verve and enthusiasm that distinguished the songs from the rest of a generally repetitive album. I also appreciated Martin's departure from his usual style in "Jezabel."

Some of the more advanced players use double-necked instruments with one neck tuned to E ninth and the other to C sixth, for jazz and swing; a 12-string "universal" hybrid also exists. But I'm keen on the bubbly pentatonic sounds of straight country, and another neck right now would just be a cruel joke. To cap it all off, my right foot controls a volume pedal, which gives the instrument its airy, floating quality...

...they have a new target: Broward County, after initially halting its hand recount, has decided that machine error was in fact responsible for a four-vote Gore-ward swing in a sample hand count.
