America On The March [CD On Demand] - Bob Sharples

Advantages: brain opener
Disadvantages: you'll get odd looks if you stick this on at a party

...Yet another CD review! This time it’s with a difference! No pop, dance or toe tapping fun to be had here! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chumbawamba ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ English Rebel songs 1381~1914 In the name of all the oppressed in the land of England -------------------- ****** Due to popular demand I have cut down the lyrics on the longer songs, but you’ll still get the idea! ****** As most people of at least average intelligence, will know that the England’s history has been a very turbulent one!

Advantages: I you want to remember Bob Marley as he was at his best..then buy
Disadvantages: None

And believe me, I have recommended it to several of my friends.... Read review

(6.5) *Joy To The World : Purely instrumental track, nothing like the classic carol. It's played in the style of a heavy rock band, very strong on the guitars!!!!! (7) *A Message From The King : Based on Silent Night. The king gives us a message from rock & roll heaven, in-between tucking into a meal that is! Like he says there aint no-one too BIG to lend a helping hand (7) • Summary • If you've got any sense of humour then I think you'll at least like, if not love this CD. The lyrics are very funny, I think especially the 12 pains of Christmas which is my favourite track on the album. The only bad thing about this CD is that it's a little... Read review
