Naked by Brantley290 Me and a lot of beatle fans did not like what Phil Spector did with Let It Be. The Beatles broke up and they had all of this let it be material and they just told them to do whatever they wanted with it. Spector put in orchestras that werent there in the first place and made decisions only people in the beatles should have made. THis is what it was meant to be. I believe the sound on Georges acoustic guitar in for you blue sounds a lot better. THey put on Dont Let Me Down which should have been on the album in the first place because it is in the movie many times. Finally the orchestra and choirs are out of THe Long and Winding ROad and Let iT Be, it sounds a lot better and this is probably how the beatles would have made it because it was supposed to be them getting back to their original work without sound effects and crazyness (hence why the title in the beginning was Get Back not Let It Be) Was this review helpful?

The good rockin tunes and the good acoustic style tracks. This is my favorite solo McCartney of the past 10 years. The songs are songs of their own and not sounding like others of his. Ringo is on a few tracks which is nice. Overall great album and a good listen. Was this review helpful?

Hit the Lights starts it off INSANELY intesne. The solos are some of the fastest i have ever heard. Even though their other older albums had songs that were just amazing this cd is just straight great riffs and fast playing. Its my favorite Metallica album because of that. Its a good listen all the way through and I like the way James used to sing not all that ARGGGHHHHHHH!!! He has a normal singing and screaming voice. ROCK ON METALLICA Was this review helpful?

I was very dissapointed in Driving Rain but very impressed with Flaming Pie. This is a little bit of both. Although there are upbeat songs like Fine Line and Promise To Your Girl, there are also great slower songs. Its great that Paul plays nearly every instrument on every song. If you bought this at best buy, you can get the bonus track Comfort of Love which is equal to if not better than a lot of songs on the album. The only reason this gets 4 stars instead of 5 is some songs are a little boring and repititous. Jenny Wren is a great acoustic track (can anybody say blackbird?). Paul said when writing Friends To Go he felt like George Harrison and i could definately see George singing and playing this song. Just take a listen and you will see what im talking about (in the dvd that comes with the album paul says the George bit). Overall great album! Was this review helpful?

But as an album, it is pretty good. Blue Jay Way and Flying are a little weak but it was from that time period and what they were experimenting with. This is pretty much extended Sgt. Pepper. Most people would say Are you crazy? Sgt. Pepper is way different and completely different album! but truthfully, it isnt. If you know the beatles, they always said any of the songs on Sgt Pepper could have gone anywhere and they could have gone here too. These songs and Sgt. Pepper songs were made at the same time. While Sgt. Pepper was being released, the beatles released the video for Strawberry Fields Forever. So to me, this has great songs on it and is a great beatles album just like Sgt Pepper although Sgt. Pepper is put together a lot better. Was this review helpful?

I like all of the new stuff but i wanted to know what came before they were big. I realized i liked the older stuff i didnt know (Kerplunk, 1039) almost better than the albums i did know. THis album is great its a lot of straight up punk songs that if you listen to enough, almost the same style as songs on Dookie. The older drummer isnt as good as Tre but doesnt have any flaws. Mikes bass is VERY impressive he has a few solos on this album. GREAT ALBUM! Was this review helpful?

It is very good. Songs like Lullabye and Great Wall Of China definately leave a mark. Although he should still be making music. People like him can always come up with good tunes and who knows how long he will be around to make music. Was this review helpful?

Just like any albums that are supposed to go together, these do it very well with Soldier Side. This is Systems best work. It was really no big deal to hear Daron start to sing because he did it on Steal This Album! and in that part on Needles. They are by far in the elite of bands with 2 lead singers. GREAT ALBUM GREAT BAND. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-8 of 8 Per Page |
