Advantages: Excellent straighter styled Space - Rock. top recording! Disadvantages: Not in the class of earlier works. Last track is a let down!
...' styled in the vocals here.It Rocks! The following ' Prisoner in mind' 'Silent Revolution' ' Fire and Ice ' and ' Eclipse of Mind ' are all really fine more rock based songs with very powerfull scorching guitar/ riffing and the odd lovely spacey ethereal passages.The final track though is a little of a let down.Great start but far too long and the full choir and orchestra just doesn't fit there style at all. Very bombastic and too overdone!
A great CD though this one. Even if it's not as good as earlier works i really like it! Love the artwork on the cover by the way! Recommended!

A MASTERPIECE Review ofRickie Lee Jones - Jones, Rickie Leeby
michellej
Advantages: EXCELLENT ALBUM Disadvantages: NONE

She has a style that fits in with the jazzy fans of the world, her music is a melting pot of folk, jazz and rhythm and blues.
Just imagine yourself sitting in a Jazz café, drinking a whiskey on the rocks in a smoke filled room and a hypnotic, laid back tune will probably be playing in the background… it’s probably Rickie Lee Jones.
Her voice is addictive, it’s sweet and calming making you want to listen to her album more and more. I discovered Rickie Lee Jones about the same time I started getting into Blues, with the likes of BB King and John Lee Hooker, just two of Jazz & R&B greats.
Rickie Lee Jones quite easily fits into that category.
Tracks on her album include:

This album, in my opinion, hears musical influences from such artists as Marvin Gaye and Luther Vandross among others.
Debut single, Army of Lovers, starts the album off and as the album plays on, it just gets better and better.
Second Single, Turn Your Car Around, is an acoustic style track which i love to listen to in the car. It's got...
