5.0 out of 5 stars Very cool & diverse compilation, October 22, 2004

This review is from: Free the West Memphis 3 (Audio CD)

Various musical styles blended very nicely in this comp which makes it easy to listen to over & over. Nothing like a multidimentional CD. Very cool, twisted & heavy version of Highway to Hell by Nashville Pussy; Boys in Black by L7 is in a similar heavy vain & Zeke's Wrathchild is an even heavier & faster song as one would expect. The Supersuckers (with Eddie Vedder), Joe Strummer & Tom Waits songs bring it back down to a slower & reflective state. Nice cool off. Can't believe the one reviewer stating he has only heard of two of the artists! I have burned a few copies of this CD so I can toss it around in the car/garage & have another sitting in my office at work.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING, January 2, 2001

With the likes of Eddie Vedder, Tom Waits, Steve Earle, L7 and a host of others, this is a very prestigious compilation. That all of these brave artists had the courage to come forward and voice their opinion about this controversial injustice is inspiring beyond words.

It is also important for people to know that proceeds from this disc do not go toward legal costs, lawyers or a new trial. Proceeds are being divided between two funds: Part of it is held in a trust fund for the three when they are eventually released from prison. The remaining is being used to help others who are unlawfully imprisoned find justice.

I can't think of a cooler way to spend my money. Great music, great cause! Thank you Aces & Eights!

I don't really believe this CD deserves 5 stars...I'm just trying to balance out the ridiculous 1 star that the other moron gave it.

It's a fine disc with good to very good songs on it. The Supersuckers song is amazing, as are a number of the others.
