Very Limited 1994 Original. Glossy, Unplayed Condition. “Returning To The One-Man Band Approach Of His Early Records, Dave Edmunds Crafted A Fine Comeback With Plugged In. Though His Method Is Similar In Execution To Subtle As A Flying Mallet, The Impact Is Different, Primarily Because He Has Stripped Away Much Of His Spector-Ian Pop Influences And Sticks To A Menu Of Ready-Made Roots-Rockers. Alternating Between Covers And Originals, The Song Selection Is Solid, Even If Only A Handful Of Songs Stand Out. Among The Highlights Is An Exciting Version Of Jerry Reed's Instrumental "The Claw," A Sweet Cover Of Al Anderson's "Better Word For Love," And The Sunny Pop Of "Beach Boy Blood (In My Veins)." While The Studied, Solitary Performance On Plugged In Can Be A Little Stiff, It's Songs Like These That Make The Album His Best Record In Years. Still, "Sabre Dance '94" Was Entirely Unnecessary.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide.
