While Pete Townshend's 1982 solo release, ALL THE BEST COWBOYS HAVE CHINESE EYES, wasn't as stellar as its predecessor (1980's EMPTY GLASS), several tracks easily stand among his best solo work. Townshend had just successfully conquered his life-threatening alcoholism and drug addiction, so CHINESE EYES was the first album in a long time that he did completely sober. Again, Townshend worked with producers Chris Thomas and Bill Price (known for their work with the Sex Pistols and the Pretenders), who give the songs more pop flavor than an expected punk edge. Highlights include the quirky "Face Dances Part Two" (an early MTV favorite), the beautiful yet haunting album-closing "Slit Skirts," "The Sea Refuses No River," and "Somebody Saved Me."

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

Customer All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes Reviews 




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

5 stars brilliant for an 80's output......
I always take 80's music as something useless or dissapointing. Even my heroes from the 70's released crappy albums in the 80's. Certainly this is not the case with good ole pete. In fact this is way much better than the last couple of who albums. Chris thomas always comes handy as a producer, this time with a pop flavour, that combined with the brilliant songwriting of pete, results in a terrific album. No drum machines, just musicians doing what they do best, and that is a tremendous gift. Thanks pete, this cd is a must. Yeah, every track!!.

All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes album
CD $7.89  4 stars Audio Samples
Taken from the video "Pete Townshend's Deep End: The Brixton, England Concert." Originally, DEEP END LIVE! was going to be just a video release, but when a four-song music sampler was issued to radio stations, the demand by fans was so enthusiastic that a full live album was issued. The album was recorded at London's Brixton Academy on February 11, 1985, and Townshend's band (whose personnel is unlisted on the CD booklet) continues ...

James Brown Make It Funky: The Big Payback 1971-1975 CDs  (1996)

All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes music CDs
CD $25.39  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Recorded between April 8, 1971 and March 18, 1975. Includes liner notes by Harry Weinger and Alan Leeds. As the Godfather of Soul moved into the thoroughly funky days of the early '70s, his music became looser, rawer, and groovier than ever. This two-disc set is the definitive collection of Brown's work from that period, replete with Fred Wesley's punchy horn arrangements, the JBs' airtight, seamless grooves, and Mr. Dynamite's gut-pulling grunts and paint-peeling screeches. While many consider this era to be the twilight of the chart-ruling success Brown enjoyed in the '60s, there is no denying the overwhelmingly infectious power of these cuts. "Hot Pants," "Get It On The Good Foot," "Think," "The Payback," and "Funky President" are alone worth the price of the set, but listeners get 21 slices of uncut funk to boot. The JBs' trademark sound is in full flower here--bright, steady guitar riffs, snares cracking like loud punches to the head, the horns adding accents and embellishments, the bass extending tendrils to reach your legs and get them moving. Through it all, the man himself once again claims his right to the get-down crown. Digitally remastered by Gary N. Mayo (PolyGram Studios). Compilation producers: Harry Weinger, Alan Leeds. Engineers: Bob Both, Lowell Dorn, Ron Lenhoff. Personnel: James Brown (vocals, rap vocals, organ); Bobby Byrd (vocals, organ); Martha Harvin, Vicki Anderson, Danny Ray (vocals); Sam T. Brown (guitar, acoustic guitar); David Spinozza (guitar, bass guitar); Robert Coleman , Hearlon "Cheese" Martin, Jimmy Nolen, Joe Beck , Charlie Brown (guitar); Hugh McCracken (electric guitar); Maceo Parker (flute, alto saxophone); Joe Farrell (flute, tenor saxophone, horns); Seldon Powell (flute, tenor saxophone); David Sanborn, Jimmy Parker (alto saxophone); Pee Wee Ellis (tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone); Eldee Williams, Michael Brecker (tenor saxophone); Russell ...
