Album Notes & Community Reviews

Built around a buoyant string section and the San Fernando Valley Youth Chorus, 'Dirty Harry' juxtaposes uplifting funk arrangements with stark commentary on the Iraq War. A dynamic guest verse from Bootie Brown sharpens the track's anti-war message within a highly accessible pop framework.
