It's Like You Never Left Music Review

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars UNDERRATED MASONALBUM
This is the first album for Columbia by Dave Mason,and I think a good one as such.Critics seem to rate ALONE TOGETHER as his best album.I am not sure that I agree.Overall I find the music on this CD more appealing.He is often labelled as singer-songwriter.I think that some of the tracks on his first album sounds a bit like the more boaring and outdated part of the genre, Thats not the case on this album.In fact I feel that singer-songwriter is a not too precise way of describing the music.SIDETRACKER has little to do with that pigeonhole and the el-piano sounds like Traffic,although Mason left the group because of dislike of the musical direction.HEADKEEPER with Graham Nash featured is another example,the arresting THE LONELY ONE with Stevie Wonder on harmonica is not typically singer-songwriter either, though beautiful tracks like MAYBE and EVERY WOMAN is,so this album has a fine variety.The only thing is that in places the CD is a shade too commercial.

Al DiMeola Anthology CDs (2000)

It's Like You Never Left album

$15.95

Recorded between 1975 and 1982. Includes liner notes by Bill Milkowski. Digitally remastered by Mark Wilder and Seth Foster (Sony Music Studios, New York, New York). Sony's third anthology of Return to Forever guitarist Al di Meola's Columbia Records years hits most of the bases and scores extra points by adding four previously unavailable live tracks that account for a whopping 40 minutes of playing time. The double disc features 16 songs from di Meola's seven albums for the label from 1975-1983 and successfully covers highlights from the jazz guitar fusionist's eclectic styles during his early career. Only 22 when his first solo album, ...

Johnny Winter And CD (1970)

It's Like You Never Left CD music

$10.49

Although Johnny Winter is primarily thought of as a Texas bluesman, 1970's JOHNNY WINTER AND is more of a blues-influenced rock & roll album. Backed by a tight and rocking band featuring ex-McCoys guitarist Rick Derringer--Winter's original backing band at this time were the "Hang On Sloopy" boys in their entirety, but the drummer and keyboardist were replaced just before the sessions started--the guitarist blasts through 11 songs with fire and verve. The songs' relative brevity means that there's none of the bloated showboating that bogs down most guitar-boogie albums of this era; these tight arrangements feature complementary playing by all band members instead ...

Joe Jackson Look Sharp! CD (1979) Remastered

It's Like You Never Left music CDs

$7.69

Digitally remastered by Erick Labson at Universal Mastering Studios West, North Hollywood, California. He burst onto the scene a couple of years later than Elvis Costello and Graham Parker, but Joe Jackson completed British rock's Angry Young Man trinity. As evidenced by his '79 debut, Jackson was a bit more eclectic than Parker or (early) Costello, and a touch ahead of both in terms of harmonic sophistication (though he downplayed his compositional chops at the beginning). The straight-ahead guitar-bass-drums trio that backed him on his first three albums was inspired by punk, but clearly more a part of the burgeoning new wave scene, ...

Hollies Greatest Hits (Epic) CD (1973) Remastered

It's Like You Never Left songs

$6.75

One of the best British Invasion bands, the Hollies were rightfully famous for their stellar harmonies (this is of course where Graham Nash honed his vocals skills) and keen sense of pop songcraft. This two-CD anthology from EMI covers the band's entire career, from their earliest (and probably best) incarnation in the 1960s up to an early 2000s recording made specifically for this collection, and including the band's various hits from the intervening decades. While the non-chronological sequencing seems a bit random, it does highlight ...

Pretenders CDs (1980) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

It's Like You Never Left CD music

$21.29

Former rock critic Chrissie Hynde launched the Pretenders with an engaging, yet passive, version of the Kinks' "Stop Your Sobbing." She unveiled her own persona fully on The Pretenders, which contains a series of excellent compositions marked by her sensual vocals and brilliant sense of dynamics. An understanding of pop's structures allowed Hynde to exploit them to her own ends while sympathetic support, particularly that of guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, used the excitement of rock without reference to its cliches. Tough and opinionated, Chrissie Hynde's first declaration of independence established the formula she proceeded to follow. The Pretenders' ...
