Cet album de Kim Mitchell est un chef-d'oeuvre. On reconnaît et on peut apprécier encore une fois ses talents de guitariste et de chanteur rock. J'aime beaucoup cet artiste... canadien à part de ça!
Cet album est un de ses meilleurs.

5.0 out of 5 stars KIM MITCHELL-ROCKLAND, February 14, 2003

Ex MAX WEBSTER frontman/guitarist really comes alive with this recording. Recorded mostly in L.A. the musician is able to bring out his true talents as a guitarist and vocalist. Other albums worth checking out are as follows:
AKIMBO ALOGO
SHAKIN LIKE A HUMAN BEING
UNIVERSAL JUVENILES-MAX WEBSTER
A MILLION VACATIONS-MAX WEBSTER
Kim Mitchell is a true Canadian icon when it comes to rock music and his music should not be missed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good follow-up to "Shakin'", September 14, 2011

I'd had the band Max Webster's final studio CD "Universal Juveniles" (with their duet with the band Rush) for years, but only after decades did I get around to looking for some of Kim Mitchell's solo CDs. I have in pretty short order purchased "Shakin' Like a Human Being", "Rockland", "I Am A Wild Party", and "Itch".

"Shakin" is probably the best of the bunch despite the fact that it has radio-smooth production. It's one of the few CDs of mine I can play in the car while driving with my wife. Great songs with great hooks. "Rockland" is very nearly as good but, as you can guess from the title, a little more energetic and grittier. It still sounds pretty smooth overall. "Wild Party" has a couple studio tracks but it is a live hits collection basically. Very clean sounding recording for being recorded in front of a crowd. "Itch" is OK but more of an uneven ride than "Shakin" or "Rockland". Mitchell tries his hand at Chili Peppers-type rap on one track, puts horns on another. Some songs are very good, but I don't find it to be a smooth listening experience.

I'd give all the CDs good marks but "Shakin" and "Rockland" are the most essential.
