 Wallflowers CD review
Submitted on: 2009-08-31 |
|
CD was advertised as like new condition. When I received it, the first 2 tracks have scratches and skip all the time. Not much I can do about it. Bad purchase on my part. I should have went with a new item.
Lesson learned!!! |

 I knew that One Headlight was mellow, but I didn't think the CD would be this stagnant...

AKA boring.
Really. One Headlight has a nice thing going and it continues once you get to The Difference, but between AND after that, it's soggy, soggy songs that have little to no purpose.
I wouldn't give this to my worst cousin. That'd be torture.
1.3 stars. |

fine breakout album for The Wallflowers
Submitted on: 2007-09-22 |

The Wallflowers, with Jakob Dylan and the other equally talented young men in the band, scores a coup with their first album entitled Bringing Down The Horse. The band performs well all the way through this CD; and the sound quality is so good you'd swear they're right there in your living room to entertain you with a special performance.
The CD track set begins with "One Headlight," which is easily a highlight of this fine album. The electric guitars work wonders for the catchy melody and Jakob sings this to perfection. Jakob sings of a woman he knows; and he performs this with style and passion--great! "Three Marlenas" begins with some awesome guitar; and Jakob Dylan does this one without a superfluous note! Jakob again sings of a woman he knows; and the rather subtle key changes between major and minor enhance the beauty of this number.
"Invisible City" starts with the guitars and the percussion; and when Jakob comes in this number takes off like a jet! "Laughing Out Loud" sports a much more rock and roll type melody as Jakob sings of his relationship with a woman that isn't exactly perfect. "God Don't Make Lonely Girls" continues that rock and roll flavor; the guitars, drums and percussion bolster the number as Jakob sings flawlessly about a girl he likes. Jakob wants to take a lonely, sad woman, make her his own and keep her happy with him. The band jams really well on "God Don't Make Lonely Girls," too.
The CD track set ends with the rock ballad that has a country twist to the melody, "I Wish I Felt Nothing." Jakob sings of his pain over the ending of a relationship with a woman he loved.
The liner notes give us great photos of the band; and the cover artwork impresses me.
Jakob Dylan and his band, The Wallflowers, give us a breakout album that still sells well today. This album is truly a must have for rock and roll fans everywhere; and if we're lucky Jakob Dylan and The Wallflowers will continue to entertain us for many years to come.
Thank you, guys! Rock on!!!

Brings down the "house" for sure
Submitted on: 2007-07-19 |

The Wallflowers started in the music business with a bang worthy of bringing down the house. This is a professional and well-done piece of music, of course, what else would you expect from the son of Bob Dylan? It's clear someone really considered the setlist on this CD, it opens with a pow with "One Headlight", which is still the Wallflowers song I play the most and just keeps rocking steady throughout the recording.
"I wish I felt nothing" closes the set with almost a stab in the chest. It's not an upbeat end--and very much a C&W type theme--but the kind of music that keeps you going on to listen for the next song.
