Jars of Clay's second mainstream, adult alternative album, Much Afraid, finds the group refining the anthemic, folky neo-jangle that made its predecessor, Jars of Clay, a crossover hit. While Much Afraid lacks a single as catchy as "Flood," it is a solid, well-crafted collection of alternative folk-rock, highlighted by the single "Crazy Times." ~ Thom Owens
The follow-up to Jars of Clay's almost minimalist first album features a bigger sound, with a wider lyrical scope and a more solid, grownup production (by Steve Lipson, of Sting and Annie Lennox fame). These new developments give MUCH AFRAID a real sense of staying power. The Christian alternative rock group appears to have broken out of the often-narrow confines of the genre. There's a hint of psychedelia on "Overjoyed," some Bee Gees-style harmonizing on "Tea and Sympathy," and lush, '70s rock-esque arrangements throughout. Spirituality plays a more subtle role on MUCH AFRAID, but continues to be a vital theme. On songs like "Overjoyed" it is sometimes difficult to separate the personal from the divine. And that's probably just the way the band wants it.

Customer Much Afraid Reviews 




Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars The perfect blend of music and meaning...
When I first listened to this album, I didn't like it, but I didn't dislike it either. Since that time (4 years ago) it has become one of my top 5 discs. Deep meanings in songs like Fade To Grey, Frail, and Weighed Down mix with perfectly arranged music. From melody to harmony to percussion and drum loops, this band, and this album especially, take "Christian" music to new heights and unexplored plateaus. Exceptional.

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

Much Afraid
CD $6.39  4.3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
The Corrs: Jim Corr (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Sharon Corr (vocals, violin); Andrea Corr (vocals, tin whistle); Caroline Corr (vocals, drums, bodhran, percussion).
Recorded at Ardmore Studios in Dublin, Ireland in January 2002.
You knew the Corrs had made it when they played the final JFK Awards ceremony of the Clinton administration. Playing it would have been achievement enough, but their status as a happening thing was cemented at the end of the ceremony, during the encores, when everybody was taking their final bows. Bill moseyed up over to Andrea, put his arm around her, and when she was looking away, sized her up -- at precisely the same moment Chuck Berry was checking her out. If that doesn't mean that you've broken America, entering its pop culture, I don't know what does, expect for maybe a VH1-endorsed piece of product like Live in Dublin. Lo and behold, that's exactly what the Corrs ...

A sprawling two-disc set, the Drive-By Truckers' SOUTHERN ROCK OPERA is a cracked masterpiece that's enjoyable on several different levels. Hipsters might enjoy the giggly premise of a two-disc set devoted to a slightly altered retelling of the rise and fall of 1970s Southern rock icons Lynyrd ...

Latin American Suite
Duke Ellington Latin American Suite CD  (1968)

Much Afraid
CD $9.49  Audio Samples
Personnel includes: Duke Ellington, Buster Cooper, Johnny Hodges, Paul Gonsalves, Harry Carney, Lawrence Brown.
Principally recorded in New York, New York in 1968. Originally released on Fantasy (8419). Includes liner notes by Stanley Dance.
Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1990, Fantasy Studios).
Duke Ellington always absorbed influences from the music he heard as he toured the world, and The Latin American Suite is no exception. Written during his first tour of Central and South America in 1968, Ellington premiered several of the pieces during concerts in the Southern hemisphere, though he didn't record it until returning to the U.S., with one piece ("Tina") being recorded separately over a year after the other tracks. "Oclupaca" is an exotic opener showcasing Paul Gonsalves' robust tenor, while Ellington gets in an Oriental kick during his driving blues "Chico Cuadradino" (jointly written with his son Mercer). Ellington is in a jaunty mood in his bossa nova "Eque," which spotlights both Johnny Hodges and Gonsalves. The infectious "Latin American Sunshine" ...

Much Afraid
CD $21.29  
On the heels of a mighty-fine reissue program of his earlier work, Mike Keane released his fifth album in the Royal Family & the Poor guise, compiling a variety of songs from sessions over four years time. In keeping with most of his work, North-West Soul is a solo album in all but name, with Keane handling everything himself with fine results. His voice -- possibly his most underrated quality, thoughtful and gentle without being twee or melodramatic -- gets treated throughout with a slight echo, adding a strong sense of depth and space to the performances. Often the warmth comes through in unexpected moments, as in his narrative praise to another via the chorus of "Midnight Symphony II," perhaps the album's strongest song, though ...
