A follow up effort to "Start the Car", and "A View from 3rd Street". "I Don't Know Why I Act This Way" brings the listener to something new with Jude Cole. This album is about a wide variety of human emotions and conditions. A more somber feel than that on "3rd St" or "Start the Car" This album is one of Jude's most "intense" lyrical effort. complete with complex arrangements and production and the many unexpected instrumental twists that have become his trademark.
