Neil Young & Crazy Horse Broken Arrow

9 mar 06

Voto:

The review is very good, I like the fact that you don't take yourself too seriously: you write for fun but manage to avoid trivializing what you write about. After all, regarding "broken arrow," honestly, I wouldn't have known what to say, because it seems to me an album of barely passing grade that adds nothing to the Youngian legend.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse Broken Arrow

Honestly, I believe that "broken arrow" is the most dispensable among the albums made with Crazy Horse, considering it followed two masterpieces like "Ragged Glory" and "Sleeps with Angels," not to mention the fantastic live album "Weld." Only "Big Time" and "Music Arcade" could feature in a hypothetical "best of" the '90s.

Oasis Wonderwall (singolo)

Seven reviews weren't enough - I mean 7!!!! - of the latest album by the monociglio band. Now they're even starting to fill the site with the garbage of singles. And they don't review, I don't know, strawberry fields forever/ penny lane, but wonderwall, one of the most boring songs of the 90s.

Regarding the fact that the trumpet bells of "high hopes" belong to the "best Pink Floyd" - as our reviewer claims - I would have some doubts....

Neil Young Prairie Wind

Voto:

I fully agree with ez. Young has experimented with different musical genres, not just in the 80s. The last three studio albums are completely different from one another. Inspired by soul "Are you passionate?", darkly electric "greendale," and of course the outline for "harvest" of the latest.

Gigi D'Alessio Quando la mia vita cambierà

D'Alessio should have lived in Pompeii at the time of the eruption of Vesuvius.

It's always a good and right thing for teenagers to listen to nevermind....

Neil Young Prairie Wind

Voto:

"Prairie Wind" is a good album, rated 3.5 as MassimoF says, and features a couple of absolute classics. "No wonder," inspired and driven like the early days of Neil's career, and "When god made me," the usual, imperishable piano ballad. There are 4 or 5 good tracks despite the wear of time, which every Neil fan automatically listens to, and a handful of songs that are honestly avoidable (starting from "He was the king," a nice entertainment but nothing more). Forever young!

Bob Dylan Time Out Of Mind

Surely the best Dylan since "Blood on the Tracks."

U2 Rattle And Hum

I explained why I consider Rattle and Hum an overrated album. I don't believe I was being subjective, given that I stated Achtung Baby is a great album: I have no prejudice against U2. It seems to me that I expressed a clear and coherent reasoning. Whether or not it can be agreed upon is, of course, a notoriously subjective matter.
Regarding the cover of Dylan and that of the Beatles, my point is that they are truly banal versions, both compared to the originals and to other renditions.
If someone does a cover of a piece by legendary artists, what sense does it make to present them almost exactly the same, especially dulling the edges and offering a muffled sound? It’s a simple exercise in style, even more so if you tell me it’s well sung. Bye.
