5.0 out of 5 stars this is my six year old son's favorite cd, May 9, 2000
This review is from: Keep a Secret (Audio CD)
I used to pop this cd in when driving long distances with child in tow. It's a great sing along record, Jake's voice is so beautiful. The back-up band is all-female and acoustic: stand up bass, drum, and violin - with Jake on guitar. The lyrics are great, especially Alibi and Going Through the Motions. My kid asked me what type of music this was and I really could't find a box to put it in, but I'll try. This is rock and roll after hours

5.0 out of 5 stars Wish I Could Give It More Than 5 Stars, November 16, 2001
By 
This review is from: Keep a Secret (Audio CD)
This is one of those few albums that defies all efforts to describe in mere words how wonderful it is. Drummer Freda Love started out in the Blake Babies, them moved on to Antenna, where she first hooked up with Jake Smith, whom she ended up marrying. Together Love and Smith formed The Mysteries Of Life (herafter "MOL"). This band definately outshines any of their previous bands' efforts, although the Antenna releases are also quite wonderful. They don't rock as hard as Antenna, but Jake Smith is a more appealing singer than Antenna's John Strohm, and the music is catchier, more Beatles-ish. In addition to Love and Smith the band features two other women, Tina Barbieri on bass and Geraldine Haas on cello. Haas is MOL's secret weapon - the interplay between her cello and Smith's raw, garage-rock guitar playing is magic. Together they evoke a wide range of feelings, from melancholy to pure, unabashed joy! This is one of the best albums of the 90's, or any other decade for that matter.

5.0 out of 5 stars catchy indie-pop rocks!, June 11, 2001
This review is from: Keep a Secret (Audio CD)
I got this album many years ago (97?) when I was in Columbia House's CD club. Not quite sure what attracted me to it, but am I glad that I did! The unique sound of integrating a cello into indie-rock just works. Mostly acoustic, the songs are extremely catchy and the album definitely has a relaxing groove.

My favorites tracks: Going through the motions, Feel my way, Into the light, I guess I'm in luck

This is one of those albums you just play over and over, it's great!
