"Spencer turns 50 this year, a factor that's less audible in Freedom Tower's spirited swagger than in the frothy dad-worthy humor that occasionally rises to the fore-like the proud Rufus Thomas-inspired "world's oldest teenager" boast on the roadhouse funk of "Do the Get Down", or the urban-cowboy blues of "Down and Out", a light-hearted requiem for a modern-day, overpriced New York where even "a million dollars ain't gonna last you but one year." And while Freedom Tower isn't exactly a concept album, it can belabor the NYC-nostalgia angle".
