entirety of the 1960s, the Impressions epitomised
Chicago soul with their irresistible gospel pop
and gently pleading harmonies. At the centre of
this remarkable creative machine was Curtis
Mayfield, architect of some of pop's most
memorable moments. His breathy vocals and
standard-setting guitar playing, along with
sumptuous horn arrangements, are cool, refreshing
and soothing. The uplifting tone is bolstered by
inspirational lyrics concerning civil rights and
social awareness. Not for nothing did Mayfield's
spiritual tales of the strength of black America,
such as "It's All Right" and "Keep On Pushin",
significantly dent the charts. While other vocal
groups struggled in this period with comparatively
bland efforts that were ersatz and off-the-boil,
the Impressions were too sophisticated, too good
and too on-the-pulse to ever get left behind.

Solid Album
Review of Blonde On Blonde - Bob Dylan by  jameshoyle

Advantages: Solid album
Disadvantages: Not enough tracks

...Likely You Go Your Way And I'll Go Mine - great chords and good lyics. 10. Temporary Like Achilles - an okay song with a more traditional folk sound. 11. Absolutely Sweet Marie - a good song, but not one of the best on the album. 12. 4th Time Around - good song and good lyrics. 13. Obviously 5 Believers - an awesome song with great backup electric guitar and harmonica. 14. Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands - a good way to close the album, and the title gives an impression of what the song is like. // 10 Impression: This is one of the best albums I've ever heard. It's one of the few albums that I can listen to the whole thing without getting bored. The song has something for everyone, with folk fans, people who like Blues and even people who like rock will appreciate this album. This album can best be described as a masterpiece, and although I... Read review

A soap star who can sing?
Review of Left Of The Middle - Natalie Imbruglia by  Lil_Miss_Pink

Advantages: Good easy listening
Disadvantages: Nothing to write home about

...‘Gotta get back, gotta figure out a way, I’m losing – my senses to you. Where’d it go, the bluebird I should follow. Back home? But where is home? Guess it won’t amount to much, won’t be long before I crush, I’ll stand in line, don’t believe a thing they say, today.’ DON’T YOU THINK? ‘Some people, don’t worry, bout nothing, don’t know what’s going on, I’m not one, who can’t say they’re sorry, I just care what’s going on.’ IMPRESSED ‘Sweet confetti out looking for a saviour. Finding it hard to break the chain. Nothing ventured nothing gained. Ice cream beauty acting on her best behaviour. Finding it hard to bite her tongue. Feeling so old as the night is young. Six foot leaning on a lizard chest. Two red dragons ironed on his vest. All that money you deserve the best. I’m impressed, I’m impressed.’ WISHING I WAS THERE ‘I... Read review

The Return
Review of Return Of Saturn - No Doubt by  15091983

Advantages: Great Hits Once again 2 BONUS TRACKS!
Disadvantages: none

...After a well deserved break, No Doubt Returned with their forth album entitled Return Of Saturn, although a strange title, this album is once again crammed with hits! This was the second album of No Doubts that I bought which included the great come-back single "New" which is a great fast dance type rock track which is still one of my all time faves! Follow-ups to the return single failed to impress or make it into the top 10. Other releases included Simple Kind Of Life and Marry Me both good tracks but not in my view the best off this album. Tracks that Impress me especially are Bathwater a boppy little number and a classic in my view, Six feet Under with great Drumming from the band member Adrian Young. Suspension is another great with a spingy sound at the beginning which seems really strange in sounding. Gwen sings quite... Read review

Review of Brutal Planet [ECD] - Alice Cooper by  dewbree

Advantages: an all new sound
Disadvantages: takes a while to grasp

...After the dissapointment of THE LAST TEMPTATION, i was in two minds if i was to buy BRutal planet. On the first listen i was not impressed at all, but with further listening i was impressed by the overall feel of the cd. The tracks i feel are not in the same catagory as vintage alice but as a new kind of sound it is up the with the best the metal scene has to offer at this moment. The production is top notch and the songwriting is basic but very strong. It is the best since constrictor but listen with an open mind because it is different.... Read review

Will have you weeping!
Review of Second First Impression - Daniel Bedingfield by  ktb88

Advantages: Great songs! fresh and new
Disadvantages: only 12 songs but the lyrics make up for that

...I brought this about a week after it came out! second first impression, great title! not that he need's a second first impression gorge and great singer what more do you want!? The songs a great lovely lyrics great tunes, My favorite is 'sorry' about him a natasha i'm guessing very emostional song, and allso 'show me the real you' where the title comes from. lyrics are totally original, nothing like the previous. Tunes and melody is amazing, he has really turned a corner, this must devinately be the best album of the year I'm sure everyone will be able to relate to one of these songs in some way! congratulations david you have exceled yourself! great buy, devinately worth the money go and get it!...

One of the Best albums!!!
Review of Anthems Of Rebellion - Arch Enemy by  With_Hope

Advantages: More than a few good songs
Disadvantages: Claimed by many "noobs"

...Okay so Arch Enemy have a gorgeous vocalist, and an ex-carcass member in the line up... Still not impressed? Well with tracks such as: Dehumanization End of the line Leader of the rats We will rise ....this album cant go unheard or untouched. Mr(s) Amott still continues to excel himself on guitar. Excellent solos and riffs all included. (see tracks mentioned above) Also, lyrically, this album is solid and did not fail to impress me in the slightest. you'll be glad to see the CD comes with 2 discs, and YES it actually has more than 8 songs on the album. A rarity in the somewhat mainstream music production line. This is only the second studio album this band has done with Angela Gossow I reccommend this to all metal fans!... Read review
