4.0 out of 5 stars Julian holds his own, December 13, 2000

By

This review is from: Mr Jordan (Audio CD)

Released in the U.S. and Canada by Atlantic, but is now out-of-print domestically. Released elsewhere by Virgin Records. I had the LP a long time ago, but it disappeared, so I got the CD. Hearing it again, especially the song "Sunday Morning", just took me back. People don't cut Julian slack, especially Yoko. His life isn't all it's cracked up to be. This may be reissued by Rhino someday, but you can do them one better by getting it used like I did or get the import.

2.0 out of 5 stars Goodbye Mr. Jordan, April 24, 2006

This review is from: Mr Jordan (Audio CD)

I like Julian Lennon, having bought and enjoyed Valotte, Help Yourself, and Photograph Smile. His gentle voice, harmonies, and piano certainly recall his father, but with his own perspective.

Unfortunately, that perspective is missing here. In its place is Patrick Leonard, who served as producer and masterminded the transformation of Julian Lennon into a generic LA-glam guitar rocker. It doesn't work. Julian's voice is morphed through production to sound like a watered-down Bowie, singing over wailing processed LA guitar pyrotechnics and cheesy synth lines and beats.

If I have described something you will like, by all means get this album. Otherwise I would move on.

I actually wrote a review on the non-import version of this album a few months ago. But I just happened to notice that the price for the import copy that is currently available is $149.00?!?! YIKES!

If you like what you hear, though, don't let that huge ticket price scare you off. There is a non-import version available that is more normally priced. Just click on the following link; and I guarantee you'll like the prices there MUCH better ;)

Mr. Jordan

Just in case you're wondering, the only difference between this one and the non-import one is there is a short 11th bonus track on this import version of "Johnny B. Goode" that Jules did with Billy Joel. You would need to go to MTV.com to listen to a sound byte of that track.

The only other thing I have to say is this highly underrated album is one of my favorite Julian Lennon albums. And I just don't understand why it didn't do better when it was released back in 1989. It's a fun album to listen to and is a definite must have for any Julian Lennon fan. :)
