Chicken Skin Music Music Review

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

4 stars Continued Excellence
After listening to his must-have Paradise And Lunch and then this album I marveled at where Ry Cooder continues to take American music. Stand By Me with a Norteno flavor? Brilliant!

Ry Cooder Into The Purple Valley CD (1972)

Chicken Skin Music

$10.89

Guitarist Cooder was a respected session musician prior to launching a solo career. His distinctive style blossomed fully on this, his second album, which is a brilliant compendium of American country/folk styles. Tight but sparse accompaniment takes the artist through songs largely drawn from the Dustbowl Ballads of the Depression era, including Woody Guthrie's "Vigilante Man" ...

Ry Cooder Boomer's Story CD (1972)

Chicken Skin Music

$10.89

Ry Cooder spent the 1970s making a small pile of extremely cool records. One of them was BOOMER'S STORY. In 1972 Cooder was one of the hippest slide guitarists around. His singing, like his rhythm chops and arranging skills, has always been funky and distinctive. His taste for all things groovy and American and his breadth of knowledge (and/or willingness to seek out the missing details when necessary) led him to arrange his albums around themes. BOOMER'S STORY leans on the music of the 1930s and 40s for its text, yet avoids becoming a mere period piece. Lopsided backbeats, horn parts, barrelhouse piano, and blues mandolin licks all go into the gumbo, and come out sounding just right. Skip James' "Cherry Ball Blues," the soul classic "Dark End ...

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)

Chicken Skin Music

$6.79

This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine." Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of RIVERDANCE. There's also a lovely rendition of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" that's topped only by Ron Wood's reappearance on a finale of the Stones' "Ruby Tuesday." ...

Matthew Sweet Living Things CD (2004) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Japan

Chicken Skin Music

$42.05
Japanese pressing of the songwriter's 11th studio album; includes two additional tracks, "Walk On The Edge (Demo)" and "Season Is Over (Demo)." 2004, Japanese import. Casual observers might think that alt-rocker/power-popper Matthew Sweet simply fell off the map after his early-1990s success. In mainstream commercial terms there's some credence to that notion, but artistically, nothing could be further from the truth. Though he began to slip underneath the radar sometime in the late '90s, Sweet never stopped releasing melodic pop gems, as 2004's LIVING THINGS bears out. Gone are Sweet's days of dirtying up his sweet tunes with chaotic lead guitar work from the likes of Richard Lloyd and Robert Quine. Around the turn of the decade, he started trafficking in a more lush, sparkling sound. The presence of Brian Wilson collaborator Van Dyke Parks on keyboards and Velvet ...
