5.0 out of 5 stars A rare, beautifully off-beat album full of positive vibes., October 25, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Let's Go Do What Happens (Audio CD)

It's not often an artist is caught on tape in such fine form. 'Lets go do what happens' is a little inaccessable at first, but on further listening explodes into a beautifully constructed sound-scape. this his third album sees Francis mature; taking a more witty experimental approach in tracks like 'Crazy as a Pitstop' & 'Give up your day job'. The songs are weighted with complex layered sounds and an infectious positive message - the perfect antidote to an attack of the blues. Listening to 'Revolution' you get a real sense of sincerity on the artists part, through a mix of clever lyric and an emotional delivery. This is an album with a Lennonesque message for the 90's, to love yourself, believe in yourself and be yourself. This man has talent. Francis Dunnery has always been known for his exceptional skill on guitar, on 'Lets go do what happens' he shows us he is also a skilled singer/songwriter. I just can't wait to see what he'll come up with next. Buy it now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trust in Yourself, June 21, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Let's Go Do What Happens (Audio CD)

This album did not live up to my expectations. Instead it hurdled me full-throttle into a new realm of consciousness.

Grasping for words to express the beauty of this album, I'm left to just say that Francis Dunnery knows his s***. Without a dull moment, Dunnery takes the listener on a wild ride to the moon and beyond life and death with a dazzling array of musical styles and grooves.

Dunnery is not shy about making Music That Matters. While most artists that attempt this come off as snobish, Dunnery's confession-style wit is delivered without a trace of pretense. The message, is overwhelmingly "you are what you believe you are." To Dunnery, misery is optional, and this emphasis on spirituality is terrifically infectious. The message is aptly mixed with unusual imagery to keep you listening and entertained.

Do yourself a favor and go get this album.

This review is from: Lets Go Do What Happens (Audio CD)

Forget for a second about the new age, self-help lyrics Francis Dunnery thorws-- though they are very good. Let't Go Do What Happens is filled with great music.


Basically rock songs, the album is rich with grinding guitars, thick synthasizers, and brass that alternates between jazz and soul. Dunnery's music is not particually complex, but is textured, layred, and most important, genuine. He is a rocker, but one who can make his rock swing, loop and happily hollar. There is not a ballad on here, but these cookers have the melody and bouyancy of the best pop.

Look at the cover, and you can tell Dunnery is an eccentric who does not give a witt about what you think of him, but you can't help but love the nutty optimism he exudes here.

Great album
