doogie Posted August 5, 2002 Posted August 5, 2002 AMG review A potent combination is the intelligent and earthy songwriting of David Cantor and the sultry and stylizing jazz vocals of Kelly Flint. The timbre of Kelly's voice melds magically with the main instrumentation of stand-up bass, vibes and thoughtful drums. Individual musicians dress up several tracks on guitar, baritone sax and tenor sax. Each track stands alone strongly due to the resilient Cantor construction and Flint's intoxicating delivery. Excepting the elevating treatment of Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side," every track is an original deserving to stand alone as a standard. As a testament to the proficiency to the dozen-and-a-half musicians involved, the entire album was recorded live and no overdubs were used. The quirky but worthy music here bears comparison to Cole Porter. The content and approach are ideally suited to today's music fan looking back on a long cabaret jazz history and looking forward with expectation. This pairing of a wordmeister and a mistress of hip lounge is a rare and wonderful thing, so enjoy it. The twelve-page booklet includes all lyrics. — Thomas Schulte I like this one. Cool music.
doogie Posted August 5, 2002 Posted August 5, 2002 where to find this cd? now very hard to find cd you know. Sure anot? This CD I picked up in Bangkok Amarin Plaza (Sogo). It's Chesky's label - I thought I saw it somewhere in Singapore before - Grammophone? Mebbe you try there. The shop in Amarin let me try any number of CDs on their super duper system in their super duper room. Electrocompaniet EMC1 (192 khz one), Jadis pre (dunno which model), JR Model 8 Hc, Wilson Sophia. I tried 30......bought 3. :P

Guest synapse1624705739 Posted August 23, 2002 Posted August 23, 2002 Force Vomit - Give it up for the trustfund rockers! ;D
Chowbotak Posted August 24, 2002 Posted August 24, 2002 red hot chilli pepper's by the way. still prefer their earlier raw kick ass sound!
InnocentBlood Posted September 14, 2002 Posted September 14, 2002 Great stuff !!! Pure, unbridled rock & roll ;D If anything, this 19-track double live CD (culled from the band's 2001 tour and ushering in a likely extended hiatus) should forever make clear that the Crowes aren't pretending anymore. They are every inch the swaggering, bluesy road monsters they've always wanted to be--for better or worse. Centered largely on tracks like the funky, texturally rich "Lion" in its first half, vocalist Chris Robinson only occasionally drops into the blatant Rod Stewartisms that have been the source of so much criticism, often (as on "Wiser Time") evoking Southern-fried Van Zant working-class charm. The newer tracks underscore that the Crowes aren't slaves so much to blues-rock history (check the slinky "High Head Blues" and angular "Lickin'") as they are to the historic energy level and groove that fuels the set's sweaty build to a hit-filled climax ("She Talks to Angels," "Hard to Handle," "Remedy"). Audiophiles may lament the album's raw arena sound, but it's just another ironic nod to the band's chosen roots. --Jerry McCulley
Guest Jerry Posted September 18, 2002 Posted September 18, 2002 listening to the new jazz sensation....Narah Jones!
InnocentBlood Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 the bonus dvd is pretty good & will be appreciated by fans. i think it's a worthy follow-up to to their previous album. if you can, try to get the version with the free dvd - this DOES NOT come with a BFC sticker ;D & you can get it @ music warehouse. Some notes from Amazon: Despite the advent of the '00s, thoroughly blunted longhairs wearing three-quarter-length T-shirts still boot around the suburbs in painted vans listening to roaring metal. Fittingly, a whole new crop of post-Dazed and Confused-era stoner rockers--Fu Manchu, Monster Magnet, and arguably the kings of them all, Queens of the Stone Age--provide a shredding contemporary score for righteous three-finger devil salutes. On Songs for the Deaf, core members bassist Nick Oliveri and singer-guitarist Josh Homme (also see Kyuss) balance pure guitar-induced carnage with more complex, though no less aggressive, speed rock that whips by so fast it creates its own breeze. Opening with the 90-second "The Real Song for the Deaf"--a cheeky and amorphous bit of bloopy electronica quite possibly recorded at the bottom of a swimming pool--the disc explodes with track two, a toxic squall of power chords and now-classic Olivera death howls. It's here the album's recurring concept/conceit is introduced as a generic-sounding announcer from L.A.'s "Clone" radio spits out some psychobabble reinforcing the tired if true cliché that commercial radio stinks. Similar mock broadcasts surface elsewhere, but they're easily forgivable, given the bounty on offer. Homme-powered tracks dominate--the lurching, weirdly springy "No One Knows" is a kind of "Monster Mash" for grownups; the vocal harmony-driven "The Sky Is Falling" is almost dreamy until a small army of guitars surges to the front lines to begin firing. And a lyrically winking hidden track, "Mosquito Song," is either an in-joke of ridiculous proportions or a declarative statement about the level of musicianship lurking just beneath the quaking veneer of the Queens' sound. Either way, genuine excitement comes early and often on Songs for the Deaf. It's a remarkable achievement--a hard rock record so good that it immediately evokes a conspiratorial fervor that makes you want to tell everyone you can about it. Er, job done. --Kim Hughes

InnocentBlood Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 this is the CD that i'm referring to : Close To You was performed by The Cranberries for this album.
ntuc Posted September 20, 2002 Posted September 20, 2002 dang you beat me to it. the cranberries included this in the b-side of one of their singles. just dolores' vocals and very short. Finally get to hear cranberries version. But I still prefer carpenters version.
