I had not heard all the songs and so it was a great surprise that I love the whole cd read full review | report as inappropriate
Real good Isaac product. Demonstrates the uniqueness of his voice over and over and the subtleness of his writting. Many underproduced songs, but that's what is called for this time. His going to Baja to record makes it all seem like a vacation... read full review | report as inappropriate

Awesome compilation, a great value covering all the best tunes read full review | report as inappropriate
It was OK, but it's missing some songs. I was shocked when I didn't see "Good Work" and "Dreams". Also, there are too many live tracks. I do like, however, how they have some rare photos and a bio, but the track listing is dissapointing. If you're... read full review | report as inappropriate
While I probably would never give ANY BoDeans release less than three stars, I would have to agree that this contains WAY too many tracks from 'Joe Dirt Car' (which, in my opinion, was one of the most overrated live albums ever - the latest... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Joe Strummer - (Audio CD) - 1989 ... more
I used to own this album on vinyl, way back in the eighties. It was a brilliant idea to re- release Earthquake Weather on CD, because it definitely withstood the test of time. A classic punk- rock song like the opening track "Gangsterville"... read full review | report as inappropriate
BUYER BEWARE. Item on offer as new through Amazon is a CD-R of original issue with photocopied artwork. For example, there are no interior notes, whereas the original CBS issue contained lyrics to all songs, which are important with such a... read full review | report as inappropriate
Earthquake Weather has to be one of the most over produced albums I have ever heard. The lyrics and concept of the songs are great but it's badly over produced. Maybe they should have keep the music basic and hid the tapes from Joe before he... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Chris Isaak - (Audio CD) - 1993 ... more
First, write a song which kinda puts you in the mindset of "Wicked Game," like "Can't Do A Thing (To Stop Me)." Then, put this complete piece of fluff on a regular album, which also has plenty of good songs on it. This album broke some new ground... read full review | report as inappropriate
I had never heard of Chris Isaak. I bought this album after hearing the haunting and unforgettable "Can't do a Thing to Stop Me" on the radio. This song was a total anomaly, and the rest of the album might as well be from another performer.... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Chris Isaak - (Audio CD) - 1990 ... more
This is my favorite Isaak CD. It has a great sound-50's meets 80's production, great songs, and great presentation. This CD is really a must for an all night drive to Florida, or somewhere! I can just picture JW playing a Gretsch guitar with a... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Chris Isaak - (Audio CD) - 1989 ... more
I picked up the finality of all songs to coerce my shattered existence into believing that I was not alone. Something stirs upon the surface of "Wicked game." I can feel it now, as broken wings mend the indescribable feeling that there is... read full review | report as inappropriate
All the songs sound alike and/or are boring, except for Wicked Game, which is lovely. Too bad. Chris has such a lovely voice. read full review | report as inappropriate
Wicked games is definately the best song on this CD, but Spanish Games, and others, are also excellant. This is a great CD for when you want to just sit back and relax. I just love Chris Isaak!! read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: The Long Ryders - (Audio CD) - 1993 ... more
I'm awfully fond of Native Sons. It was the first full length from the Long Ryders, who were among the best of the rockers of the first era of "quote" bands ... bands that name-and-sound checked great music of their (our) youths in the 60's and... read full review | report as inappropriate
Find State of the Union, if you want their best stuff. This one is not bad, but does have some filler...... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Chris Isaak - (Audio CD) - 1998 ... more
As much as I loved Forever Blue. I love this one even more. A rock attitude. His basic blues sound with a sexy swagger. Classic and a must have for rock fans or fans of his early material. read full review | report as inappropriate
I have many of Mr Isaak's albums but this one lacks originality. I think you could begin to say that his songs are starting to sound the same eg. 'Please'. They repackaged it recently by adding 'Baby Did A Bad thing' on the end to create more... read full review | report as inappropriate
The first half of this CD is brilliant. Buy it for that reason alone. 'Flying' and 'Walk Slow' pack a hell of a one-two punch. They don't have the immediacy of a 'Wicked Game' or 'Somebody's Crying' yet they highlight Isaak's lovely croon and his... read full review | report as inappropriate

Who would have thought that just by hearing Something's Tell Me played on our indie radio station I would have ordered this CD!!! Glad I did, kinda rock n roll meets country It is my first Bo Deans CD, will not be the last, interesting style,... read full review | report as inappropriate
With the exception of Closer to Free, I found this CD to be markedly less listenable (=flat & lifeless) than "Home", "Black & White", and "Love & Sex etc." It is possible that this could reflect some deficiency in my taste: suffice to say that... read full review | report as inappropriate
I am a BoDeans fan. I own OUTSIDE LOOKING IN,HOME, and LOVEANDHOPEANDSEXANDDREAMS. This one I inherited by marriage, presumably because my wife bought it for the "Party of Five" theme song ("Closer to Free") that opens the disc.... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Lone Justice - (Audio CD) - 1996 ... more
Unlike many Lone Justice and Maria McKee fans, this is my favorite album. Maybe because the first time I heard of them was the performance of Shelter on SNL. That song inspired me to buy the album way back in '85 and I've listened to it... read full review | report as inappropriate
The first Lone Justice album was a masterpiece. It was consistent and cohesive. But for a few songs, this one is, in contrast, an incoherent letdown. I'll never forget seeing this band perform in person or on SNL during the "Shelter" tour. They... read full review | report as inappropriate
