Thank God the Marshall Tucker catalog is being remastered! This is as good as it gets in country-southern rock blues music. Why can't any of today's groups sound like this? Rush out and buy this cd!!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Best Southern Fried Rock out there!
My Dad played Mandolin on this album so I could be a little partial. I grew up on this music and I have this in vinyl. Love to listen to is and wish I had it on CD. "Searchin' for a Rainbow" is my favorite cut.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 'Can't you see' is worth it...
I'm buying this album, unheard,
on the strength of 'Can't you see,'
which is everything a ballad should
be--soulful without being ponderous,
and with a beautiful melody.
If the rest of the album is as
good as that song,
it's worth it.

Perhaps the only reason that New Life isn't quite as memorable as its self-titled predecessor is that the band's debut was just so startling when it appeared. By the time New Life was issued in 1974, to the band's credit, it seemed like the Marshall Tucker Band sound had always been a part of America's rock & roll scene. New Life is earthier than the first album, and country music is less layered over by the trappings of jam-band rock. "Blue Ridge Mountain Sky" is only eclipsed by Dickey Betts' "Ramblin' Man" ...

The debut album by indie institution Built to Spill finds the Idaho rockers hitting the ground running with a vision that marries the prismatic pop sensibilities of Pavement with the cheap psych-fuzz of underground guitar gods like J. Mascis and the Bevis Frond's Nick Salomon. Tracks such as "Get a Life" and "Revolution" stack layers of warping lo-fi guitar gristle over jagged melodic bits that bob in the amplified froth. Bandleader, singer, and guitarist Doug Martsch--who shreds in continually inventive ways, mixing a panoply of hammer-ons, feedback squelchs, and distorted yawps in the many extended solos--roots his grandiosity in a student's understanding of rock history. He even bites lyrics from the Velvet Underground classic "Oh! Sweet Nuthin'" on his "Nowhere Nothin' F*ckup", a song inspired by a Philip K. Dick character. Rock and roll nerd-dom never sounded this vicious--nor would Built to Spill ever again sound this rough and tumble. This is their only album recorded as the original trio featuring bassist Brett Nelson and drummer Ralf Youtz along with Martsch.
Built to Spill came from unusual parents: Doug Martsch used to be the chief songwriter for the Treepeople. He left the band because his desire to tour had waned to near nonexistent, but more importantly because Doug desired a new creative situation. Martsch enlisted the services of guitar friend Brett Netson from Boise's misunderstood psychedelic warriors Caustic Resin (whose debut Body Love Body Hate is available from C/Z) and a mysterious percussion fella named Ralf from Eugene, Oregon. Built to Spill (BTS), much like Blue Oyster Cult (BOC), Bachman Turner Overdrive ...
