POWERFUL, November 28, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Into the Woods (Audio CD)
Within 50 minutes The Call and its album "Into the Woods" both an unknown too me, has replaced in my mind U2 and the "Joshua Tree" as my favorite CD of all time. Micheal Been's heart pounding, emotional lyrical style captivated me from beginning to end. A musical journey that brought out every emotion within me. I cant believe it took me 11 years to discover this group. Im on the way to get "Red Moon."

Why? Why? Why?, April 17, 2005
Why The Call were not a more successful band has always confused and at the same time amused me. They had a big sound, put out 7 wonderful records and they are one of the best bands I've ever seen. Anyway, Into The Woods is a weird, yet very original record. It all hinges on Michael Been's intense emotion and introspective lyrics.This record is the type thing that grabs you by the soul and won't let you go. It's too bad these guys don't make music anymore. Really!!!!!!!!!!!

In My Memory.........., June 7, 2006
I saw the Call during their Red Moon Tour at the famous Toad's Place in New Haven, CT. I believe it was 1991, on a Sunday night and there were only about 100 people in the joint. But oh what a show, we were rewarded, it was truly one of the most inspiring performances I have ever seen, and I have seen a few:
U2 in Dublin, Springsteen at Fenway & Johnny Cash.........
The Call played their hearts out that night even though they must have known they were nearing the end. Michael Been was on the Bass, playing stage right and the entire place hung on his every note. I feel blessed to have seen them play Live.
"Into the Woods" is a GREAT Album, it's a real shame that it never got noticed by anyone except BONO!!!! MEMORY will leave you breathless, thinking of the one that got away. INTO THE WOODS will simply blow you away. Do yourself a favor and BUY this CD, I promise you it will make you smile.....Kell
