Make It Through This World Music Review

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

5 stars Best yet, hard to believe
This album is Greg's best as far as I am concerned. Everything is good but I especially like "This I'd Do For You," I Love It When She Lies" and "No Higher Ground." This is now my favorite CD out of more than I can count. I can't imagine Greg Trooper getting any better, but he will probably find a way. Wonderful. Five stars are not enough. An album every two years - such a long wait for the next one.

I had never heard of Greg Trooper but just recently listened to him being interviewed on WBUR, in that interview I heard a small sample of his music so decided to buy the CD. Imagine my surprise when every song turned out to be a winner, to say I was thrilled would be putting it mildly, I have been listening to it ever since and will buy more of his music.

Greg Trooper Floating CD (2003)

Make It Through This World

$14.79

So finally Greg Trooper gets a deal on what amounts to a real label. And while it's a label normally associated with bluegrass and superpickers, that's fine. Sugar Hill has issued records by Guy Clark, too. It's about time. On Floating, Trooper reveals once again that he is an artist of the old school, one for whom development is a journey, not a destination. Each album stronger than the last -- which is saying something when you've never released a bad one -- is an exercise not only in the language of lyric writing and melody sculpting but ...

Mary Gauthier Mercy Now CD (2005)

Make It Through This World

$11.49

Since her second offering, the self-issued Drag Queens in Limousines in 1999, and continuing through the stellar Filth & Fire in 2002, Texas singer/songwriter Mary Gauthier has quietly and consistently raised the aesthetic bar for herself. She has been favorably (and accurately) compared to Townes Van Zandt for her literate American gothic songs about wasted lives, desolate characters who roam the highways like ghosts, shattered dreams, and frustrated expectations. ...

David Gilmore Ritualism CD (2001)

Make It Through This World

$13.95
After years of sideman work with Steve Coleman, Don Byron, and many others, guitarist David Gilmore makes a bold and beautiful statement with his long-awaited solo debut, Ritualism. At the core of the project is a high-octane quartet, with Gilmore, George Colligan on piano and keyboards, Brad Jones on double bass, and Rodney Holmes on drums. The presence of guest horn players David Binney, Ravi Coltrane, and Ralph Alessi boosts the excitement level even further. Gilmore brandishes a rugged tone and delivers his lines with a sharp, staccato attack and an astonishing rhythmic fluidity. His writing is highly advanced and richly varied, and while his production aesthetic stresses the live immediacy of acoustic jazz, the tracks groove with a fusion-like urgency. Bursting with odd-metered exchanges, ultra-complex unison figures, and virtuosic solo flights, the music comes across as a best-of-all-worlds synthesis of every influence Gilmore has absorbed. While hard-driving themes like "Paradigm Shift," "Event Horizon," and "Reality Check" boggle the mind and quicken the heart rate, the far mellower "Confluence," with Gilmore on acoustic guitar and Imani Uzuri on vocals, unfolds as a sort of space-age jazz waltz. (Uzuri handles the difficult melody with no problem.) There's also a crafty metric reworking of Thelonious Monk's "Off Minor" and an intriguing, hyperkinetic manifesto called "Musical Revolutions," with street-style spoken word poetics by Sharrif Simmons. As debut albums go, Ritualism is uncommonly focused, achieving an ideal balance of technical sophistication and emotional depth. ~ David R.
