Jackie Greene - Giving Up The Ghost - VINYL LP
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: At age 27, Giving Up the Ghost is Jackie Greene's fifth album, giving him more experience than musicians decades his senior. Nevertheless, he's assembled an all-star supporting cast, including the Grateful Dead's Phil Lesh (Greene actually played guitar for Lesh's tour back in 2007), and Dave Hidalgo (Los Lobos), who shows up to lend a hand on guitar and accordion. The album covers a variety of musical genres, most potently on "Don't Let the Devil Take Your Mind", Greene's self-proclaimed "disco-gospel" number. Now, these are two things that in theory sound horrible when paired, but in practice, they combine like bourbon and mint to produce something unexpectedly irresistible "Well there's no one man among us / Who is safe from the Siren's call / Temptation's like a crooked finger / Calling for us all". It's a little bit Debbie Harry, a little bit Robert Johnson, and a whole lot of awesome, all wrapped up in a four-minute package. Oh, and Dave Hidalgo throws in a face-melting guitar solo just to up the Awesome Quotient some more. "Ball and Chain" has Greene sounding like Mick Jagger when he was at the top of his game way back when the earth was still cooling (the "game", of course, being "ripping off classic blues artists"). "Prayer for Spanish Harlem" almost qualifies as shoegaze, thanks to fuzzy guitars and whispered vocals. For "Uphill Mountain", Greene switches genres yet again to arrive at a folksy guitar-and-harmonica midtempo song that cites American legends Cassius Clay, John Henry, and blues musician Big Joe Turner while dispensing non-advice like "Better stand tall if you're gonna stand it all / And if you're gonna fall, well you might as well fall". Album Tracks 1. Shaken 2. Animal 3. I Don't Live in a Dream 4. Like a Ball and Chain 5. Uphill Mountain 6. Don't Let the Devil Take Your Mind 7. Prayer for Spanish Harlem 8. Downhearted 9.

Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8. Dai the Flu 9. Headup 10. MX
