 Rating:  - One of the Frames' best!FITZCARRALDO is, plain and simple, a fantastic album. After hearing live versions of several of the tracks on the superb SET LIST, I knew I had to have this album in my collection. Every track has something special about it. The title song alone makes the album worth owning. There is so much going on musically in "Fitzcarraldo" that I all I could do was sit and listen with my mouth open in amazement. "Revelate" begs to be danced to, "Evergreen" boasts a surprising guitar riff, and you'll find it hard not to sing along with "Angel at My Table" and "Denounced". Fans of ONCE will recognize the stellar "Say It To Me Now", presented here in its full electric version. "Your Face" is a beautiful, mellow tune that ties up the album ...

Other reviewers of Fitcarraldo considered this to be the Frames best work, and although I have yet to listen to any other Frames albums besides the Cost, I have to admit this is one fine album. Although this album is not a standout sonically, the songs and Glen's singing keep it high on my rotation. Give it a listen; you won't be disappointed. Rating: - The Frames' masterpiece from 1996It is a shame that this is only available at present on an import edition. The success of their new album THE COST has won the band a lot of new fans. For those new to the band, they are similar to the Feelies in that both bands are extraordinarily good live but somewhat flat on record. THE COST is one of the rare exceptions for the Frames, as is this album from 1996. I'm on the fence as to which album I like more. THE COST might be a better album on a cut by cut basis, but the highpoints of FITZCARRALDO might be better than the best on THE COST. But hairsplitting like this is really pretty meaningless. If you love the one album, you will also love the other. My advice: get both. A lot of people like to call The Frames the ...

Read More: Rating: - Damn This Is Good.....Honestly, I could write endlessly about how incredible this band is both on cd and live in concert but I really wouldn't be saying anything different from all the other reviewers. I guess the greatest compliment I can give Glen and the rest of the band is that on Friday, I am flying from Vancouver, Canada to London for four days and my sole reason for going is to attend The Frames show on February 20, 2007. If you get the chance to see this amazing band live, you should grab it. They are the #1 live band. The song Fitzcarraldo still sends shivers down my spine especially the live version. |
