This was definitely Steve's peak as a Solo-Artist. On the Candyman-Tour in 1994 he played with his Allstar-Band "Los Lobotomys"! And the Guys have a lot of Fun....
Wow! Terrific Album! This one have to be in every Record-Collection. You better get it on Vinyl, Keith needs some Room to breath! The Difference between CD and Vinyl couldn't be bigger!
Awesome Debut of Silvertide! Their Style is a Mixture of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Candlebox. Really great! Only one Song doesn't fit in their Flow: "Heartstrong", a horrible Ballad.
This one's in a Row with Gene Clark's "No Other". Dave Mason never gets so good like on "Alone Together"! Listen to the Solo on "Look at you, Look at me", absolutely mindblowing!
Outstanding: "Only You know and I know", "Should have took more than you gave", "Sad and Deep as you", "Look at you, Look at me"
Musicians: Delaney Bramlett - guitar, vocals Bonnie Bramlett - vocals Leon Russell - keys Carl Radle - bass Chris Ethridge - bass Larry Knechtel - bass Jim Capaldi - drums Jim Gordon - drums Jim Keltner - drums Michael DeTemple - guitar Eric Clapton - guitar Don Preston - keys John Simon - keys John Barbata - drums Rita Coolidge - vocals Mike Coolidge - vocals Claudia Lennear - vocals Lou Cooper - vocals Bob Norwood - vocals Jack Storti - vocals
Wow! Amazing! Never heard of them before, but this one's a Must-Have too!! Very colorful; it reminds me on "The Feeling", "The Shining", "Infadels", "The Stills", "Carolina Liar", and on "Pieces" a litle bit on "The Verve". By the Way, there is no Women in this Band - if you think so - only four Men!!!
Outstanding: "Girl's on Fire", "Touch Down", "Pieces", "Keep it Simple"...
Fantastic new Album of "The Stills" from Montreal! No weak Track on this record, a little bit in the Mood of "The Killers" 'Sam's Town', but much more interesting!! Only the Cover-Art is a real bad Choice!!
"Quiet is the new Loud", under this slogan Starsailor gets very big in 2002! But the Album is too dark, only 2 or 3 real Highlits are on the record. Outstanding: "Good Souls"
The difficult second album was produced by Phil Spector, and in my opinion, the first "real" Starsailor Album! Nearly every Track is a Hit, but not for Starsailor: At this Time, Phil Spector gets arrested for killing a woman, and under that bad Shadow "Silence is easy" wasn't really recognized! Outstanding: "Music was saved", "Silence is easy", "Telling them", "Born again"
For me, their best Album! This one rocks and rocks and rocks... The Story behind the dirty Sound: Starsailor recorded the album at LA, and at the same Time "The Queens Of The Stone Age" were in the Studio for their latest Album" Era Vulgaris". James Walsh said, they were infected of the Rock Sound and so "On the Outside" gets its style. Outstanding: Every single Track!
Outstanding new ALbum of Starsailor! More in the Way of "Silence is easy", Starsailor go back to their Roots! I think "The Verve" will hate them for their ingenious Album, cause they waste their Time with "Forth", and Starsailor wrote the better "Verve-Songs" like 'Neon Sky" or 'Change my Mind'!
Outstanding: "The Thames", "Neon Sky", "Change my Mind", "Listen Up"
