You Can't Win is the third full-length by Dolorean, released in 2007 on Yep Roc Records. Compared to their previous studio albums, You Can't Win is more ambitious. According to a post he wrote on Yep Roc's Website, frontman Al James sought to change this. "Neil [Young] used to book studio time and shows for himself and Crazy Horse without rehearsing new songs with the band," he wrote. James booked several shows and several subsequent dates in a recording studio as a result. "The performances were raw, passionate, and loose - everything that we hadn't been able to capture on previous recordings." [1]
