A Masterpiece of Rock 'n Roll,
By A Customer
This review is from: American Babylon (Audio CD)
Every song on this CD sparkles with energy, melody, and engaging (and intelligent) lyrics -- which probably explains why it's been ignored by radio stations nationwide. You won't find a mellower song than "Chain Smoking" or a harder rocker than the title tune. Listen to the cuts available on Amazon.com to get an inkling of the joy this CD can bring. And then buy it and its follow up to give you 100 minutes of the most intense, yet rewarding and totally enjoyable rock to hit your ears in years.

Joe Grushecky Rocks,
By A Customer
This review is from: American Babylon (Audio CD)
It's easy to make references to Bruce Springsteen. In fact, Joe is to Pittsburgh as Bruce is to Asbury Park (and Michael Stanley is to Cleveland, for that matter).If you don't have any Joe Grushecky, this is a good choice to be your first. It's the first one I ever bought, having heard him live at a Pirate game shortly after it was released. I now have every CD he has ever released, and all the LP's that haven't been reissued on CD - he's that good. He doesn't have the world's best singing voice (but neither do Bruce, Tom Petty, Bob Seger, or John Hiatt). But, if you like "Heartland" Rock at all - listen to this CD all the way through just once, and you'll be hooked. |
