| | New York Rock & Roll Ensemble Roll Over/Freedomburger CD New York Rock & Roll Ensemble Discography of CDs
 (2 Customer Reviews)
This 22-song compilation assembles both of the group's Columbia Records albums on one CD. The playing is virtuosic by the standards of rock music, and this makes the recordings of interest even when the songs are less than stellar, which is most of the time. There are no notes apart from those that appeared on the original jackets, and the sound is very good. ~ Bruce Eder

;2 On 1 CDRolling Stone (12/2/70, pp.55-6) - "...[ROLL OVER] is their best album yet....there's lots of good cooking by the musicians....The riffs on 'Ride, Ride My Lady', are witty, and the rocking piano accompaniment heightens the fun and color of the song..."

Riding on the back of two of the most spellbinding U.K. hits of 1974-1975, "Imagine Me Imagine You" and "Only You Can," Fox's debut album had a lot to live up to -- and it failed completely. The Fox sound, as spelled out on the singles, was a heavily phased, extraordinarily sultry, low-key glam balladry, awash with vocalist Noosha's exotically accented purr. And the album's opener, a post-coital rendition of the old classic "Love Letters," upheld the promise. Move deeper, though, past the strategically positioned singles, and perhaps there was very good reason for opening the album with a familiar cover version. Without exception, the eight remaining tracks meander lackadaisically around a lyrical thrust that tried to be sensual, sexy, and strange, but read like bad high-school poetry. It's a world inhabited by mysterious jugglers, patient tigers, and Pisces babies, but just when you think it can't get worse, you run across "The More," a post-Desiderata homily that could have been written at the height of the hippy '60s -- and certainly should have been left there. With an instrumental vibe that certainly aspires towards 10cc-esque heights, the musical expertise that distinguished the 45s is, of course, present, while songwriter Kenny Young's production is flawless -- again, the 10cc influence is apparent. The problem is that the best of Fox could be summarized in just the first two songs the world ever heard. The rest should have been saved for Pilot B-sides. They seemed to like 10cc as well. ~ Dave Thompson

Eighth solo album by the four time Canadian Juno award nominee. A potent combination of powerful and affecting lyrics, pure vocals and masterful musicianship.For the first time since his early albums he produced this effort. The result is a relaxed fluency vocal and guitar work and a unique sonic palette, which make this album distinctly different, again, from his previous releases. Fearing's songwriting partner on ...
| | John Lee Hooker Chill Out CD (1995) Remastered
Roll Over/Freedomburger songs
$9.99
CHILL OUT won a 1996 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album.
One of a series of superb Hooker albums recorded in the '90s, CHILL OUT clearly shows that John Lee remains at the top of his game. The opening (and title) track features guitar god and long time Hooker fan Carlos Santana (with his band). Although quite slick sounding, Santana's Latin funk grooves and typically blistering solo fit suprisingly well with John Lee's gutbucket vocals--a testament to the aging blues man's incredible versatility. Roy Rogers (the blues guy, not the cowboy fast food mogul) reveals himself as an adept and sensitive producer and also adds some very tasty slide guitar on four tunes.
CHILL OUT includes several Hooker solo guitar and vocal pieces, some of which are among the best of his career. "Too Young," in particular, is chilling in it's sparseness and intensity. Hooker's voice is in great shape and, for a man known for his "talking" style, he can sing incredibly sweetly and melodically when he wants to. On "Kiddio," which features some truly funky piano from the great Charles Brown, John Lee positively croons. Whether with a full band or all alone, John Lee Hooker's talent burns brightly throughout CHILL OUT.
Chill Out isn't the superstar blow-out of John Lee Hooker's late-'80s ...
