Modern Times

CD-Charts > Music > Folk Rock
by: Bob Dylan

Release Date August 29, 2006
After 4 spins, I've decided that this is not my favorite of Dylan's work. The only track with which I somewhat connect is the final track "Ain't Talkin'" where the somber mood seems portend a revelation, "They say prayer has the power to heal, so pray for me mother; In the human heart an evil spirt does* dwell, I'm trying to love my neighbor & do good to others, but oh mother, things ain't going well." The rest of the songs have almost no melodies with arrangements that blend from one into another. This week, Bob's son Jakob's "On Up the Mountain" is #1 in my personal top ten. Seeing Things is a far superior set to "Modern Times," if it's fair to compare. At this point, Dylan can of course do whatever he wants and it will be published; ... Read More:

Second Gleam (Dig)

CD-Charts > Music > Folk Rock
by: The Avett Brothers

Release Date July 22, 2008
The Second Gleam (2008, Ramseur) The Avett Brothers' fourth studio EP. **1/2

The Avett Brothers are a definitive college-esque band. Hippie circles love 'em and they've got enough spunk to attact even offended ears, but on The Second Gleam, the energy is lost. That in itself is not the problem. In fact, if anything, it shows maturity. However, the material is just downright dull from start to finish. In fact, only on "The Greatest Sum" do soulful vocals actually appear, as the rest of the EP is dominated with cliche remembrances of love, family, and death. To say it is bad is one thing; awful, certainly not. But what makes it bad is its own laziness, which is a cumulative would-be effort of simple rhythms and lyrics.

The Lovin' Spoonful - Greatest Hits

CD-Charts > Music > Folk Rock
by: The Lovin' Spoonful

Release Date February 22, 2000
Do not buy this disk. It is NOT a CD, it does not meet the standards for audio CDs and th CD icon is notably absent on the cover. The DRM used causes skipping making the music unlistenable.

Amazon should pull this disk from its inventory

Crosby, Stills & Nash

CD-Charts > Music > Folk Rock
by: Crosby Stills & Nash

Release Date August 16, 1994
I just recently obtained copies of both this title and deja vu. For the best possible listening experience, burn both albums on one cdr (both fit on an 80 minute cd), then sit back and enjoy! I especially like to play this on my drive to work, my lunch break, and sometimes again on the drive home. I have been familiar w the So Far album for many years since i first bought it on cassette at a used record store back in the nineties. 'so far' was my initiation to their music. Now, many years later, I score a copy of their debut and the whole thing just rocks.
1. Suite: Judy Blue Eyes -great song. a little played out on fm radio. loved this cut when i heard it on 'so far' cassette
2. Marrakesh Express -my favourite cut on the album. it was supposedly a song ... Read More:

The Band

by: The Band

Release Date August 29, 2000
Well..i've never written a review on AMZN before. I am an absolute music afficianado and am a Grateful Dead fanatic. I would say that I have in my collection every single important 60's and 70's albums created (from Zep, Beatles, Floyd, all Dylan, Stones, Who, Allmans, Neil, Hendrix, Dead, and the zillion other important contributions worldwide).

THIS ALBUM BLOWS THEM ALL AWAY!

It is without question the most impressive studio album ever recorded and should be a part of any and all music fans collection. Most people know very little about the members of this group and their importance to the music industry. While R.Robertson gets the credit for most of their work.....this band MORE SO THAN ANY OTHER is truly A BAND effort. Levon Helm is simply ... Read More:
