She is free!

Advantages: Great music and her unique voice!
Disadvantages: May sound minimalist...

...and her wild voice punching you in the stomach more often than the guitars. With the interesting collaboration of Eddie Vedder, inn the backvocals of 2 songs, you can find a coherent set of songs, with brighter moments such as "Free", "Good Woman" "Fool" or "Speak for me". There's also the song "I don't blame you" which some speculate it's a tribute to Kurt Cobain, and a comprehensive testimony of his suicidal decision. This album was recorded ...

Jukebox - Cat Power

Advantages: Smooth,sexy, husky vocals whisper breathing new life into old classics.Has a live concert feel.
Disadvantages: I hate cover albums but I LOVE this one.Reserve your judgement.

If anyone can breath new life and cool into covering songs its Chan Marshall of Cat Power! Jukebox, released in 2008 came with a sigh of relief from fans who had been waiting 8 years for the artist to re-immerge with something else to add to the collections. I dont think they were dissapointed. As a rule I dislike cover albums but this one is just as good as her old The Covers Record (2000) and really shows off her maturity and experience in the ...
...The Greatist but this really gives us something fresh to tackle and in terms of listenability it is much fatter and more diverse making it 10 times more playable than The Greatest. This album was recorded with her touring band The Dirty Delta Blues Band and I think this is what gives this album its live/session feel. Ok so for those of you who haven't heard of her before, then I can only describe her voice as a beautiful combination of some of the ...

You better you better you bet

Advantages: Read text thanks
Disadvantages: Read text thanks

...This is a greatest hits album from a band who I have up there as one of the master bands of Rock and Roll music. I am sure some of this bands songs have appeared on movies as soundtracks. In addition the main reason I bought this album is because they included the song you better you bet as track number 16 as well as the classic song 'who are you'. Largely because of these two classic tracks I bought the album as I wanted to listen to other tracks ...
...songs all of which were greatest hits by the Who. I will try to describe and detail as best as I can on a track by track basis. ------------------------------- Track 1: I can't explain: This perhaps is an interesting song, as it starts off in a punchy and forceful way on the guitar as well as having nice to hear lyrics. The song provided me with a pleasant mood to hear other songs on the list. Overall I find this a really great track that really ...

Of Whales and not so much of the woe if you please!

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: none

Of Whales and Woe is Les Claypool's first proper solo album. His name may not be familiar to all as he is better known as Primus' frontman bassist extraordinaire. This album was released back in 2006 on his own record label Prawn Song. (It was recently re-released on vinyl as of November 2009.) Not so much of the wacky lyrics on this album but a far more accessable feel than his previous works. Nearly every track featured here is bass-driven in his ...
...check this out! The arrangements of the other instruments like saxophone sitar, guitar and drums, etc sit really well together without drowning anything out. The songs themselves are really catchy and you'll find yourself singing along too by the end of it. There is even one track on here, Iowan Girl, written specially for his wife with some of the most amazing bass playing I have ever heard. There isn't a bad track on here in my opinion. TRACK LISTING: ...
