Guitar Giant Settles For The Pop Market,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Best of Robbie Nevil (Audio CD)
It becomes evident upon first listening, that Robbie Nevil is a fine musician. Specifically, his jazz-inspired guitar breaks permeate this recording and bring excitement to what is, otherwise, a rather obvious example of pandering to pop sensibilities. It is not that the songwriting is bad, he has plenty of practice as a major lable in-house songwriter and, indeed, it takes skill to compose this type of pop/funk;rather, Mr. Nevil is capable of so much more. A more jazz or fusion-oriented approach would allow this monter guitarist the room he needs to really stretch out. And, whatever the merits of the compositions, one has an uncomfortable feeling of listening to a jazz artist caught trying to work within the constraints of the 3 minute pop format. It is not very convincing and you just know that mr. Nevil does not sit around his house playing this kind of stuff. If only we could hear his real gift, what a recording that would be!
