5.0 out of 5 stars I'm stunned I tell you, STUNNED!, March 2, 2005

I bought this CD because I'm a Stone Roses nut. I didn't think it would be good. I was right, but in the wrong direction. It's GREAT!!! See, I never thought Ian Brown would be so good following the Stone Roses because his live performances with the Stone Roses, um, left a little to be desired. He seemed to be the least talented of the lads in the band; however, he's created a full-blown classic here if you ask me.

Melody, modernness, great lyrics, horns, guitars, bass, computers, emotion, mysticism...this CD has it all. It's a VERY good CD. Have no fear picking this one up Stone Roses fans and everyone else. It's a must-buy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ian Brown's finest work!!, February 24, 2005

of Ian Brown's 4 solo albums, (5 if you count "remixes of the spheres") and i dig them all, i put solarized at the top. its an album you can put on and just let it go. all the tracks are solid, it just grooves from start to finish. although ian has taken alot of grief in the past for his voice (or lack there of) it sounds strong here and works well with the style of mucic, which includes lots of world music influences which i know mr. brown is fond of. collaborations with ex-roses guitarist Aziz Ibrahim and Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher are top notch. ian performed "keep what ya got" with his band on Conan O'Brien last night, which was fantastic! and if they roll through my neck of the woods i will definitely check them out!

Very interesting music with a voice that flows well. The arrangements are clever and are never out of bound.

Tres bon choix!
