He gave the record four and a half out of five stars, concluding that "one may not want to listen to this record to lift the spirit, but it is a strong reminder of difficult situations faced during what can be perceived by many as the best of times."〔 At the time of its release Boomtown received some commercial success, peaking at number thirty-nine on the chart in December.〔 Its singles, ''Welcome to the Boomtown'', ''Swallowed by the Cracks'' and ''Ain't So Easy'', all received airplay and charted on ''Billboard'' Hot 100. In 1995, the album was certified gold in the U.S.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIAA - Gold & Platinum - Searchable Database )〕 Baerwald and Ricketts played all the instruments on the album except for drums on some tracks which were played by Ed Greene. Although Baerwald and Ricketts would go on to co-write some of the material for Sheryl Crow's debut album, the duo pursed divergent musical paths with Baerwald developing his solo career and Ricketts working with singer/musician Toni Childs. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Boomtown (David & David album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
