2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Album (Darn it), July 13, 2007

This review is from: Classic (Audio CD)

I was delighted to discover Gurvitz's work had been remastered and was available on Amazon, having encountered the Jazz/Pop "Sweet Vendetta" effort on vinyl as a DJ in the 80's. It was a TREASURE/5 songs on par with anything I've ever heard, all written and sung by the artist with SUPERB instrumentation - an A+ album from an A+ talent. Noting current Amazon prices for ALL his other stuff except "Acoustic Heart", it was next a no-brainer to spend less than a buck on that CD even though the cheap price meant a probable stinker. NOT! Absolutely FANTASTIC guitar instrumental album ala Craig Chaquico. So now, prior to busting most of a c-note on landing "Il Assassino" and "No Compromise", we "invest" a little less than a saw-buck for "Classic". Did I say "INVEST"? BUMMER! No wonder they didn't include track samples! Weak songs, melodies and lyrics + vocals that don't even sound like the chap on "Sweet Vendetta". Guess I'll save my hard-earned cash on Adrian's remaining work BUT would unequivocally recommend a "used copy of "Sweet Vendetta" to ANYBODY, and "Acoustic Heart" as the best 73 cents I ever spent. ; )
