3.0 out of 5 stars A Matter of Taste, April 5, 2000
By 
C. Holcomb (Upstate NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Songman (Audio CD)
This album is definitely an auditory feast, but one that requires a certain taste. I bought this after having heard and purchasing "Winds of Warning" and the self-titled "Nomad" and loving them both. I wish I had listened to "Songman" before purchasing it, though. While the album is well-produced and of very high quality, and the chanting adds an interesting element, the musical evolution away from traditional didj, drums and nature sounds rather put me off. Perhaps a bit too much "funk" and "groove." So, if you're in the market for more of the traditional style, you'll probably not like this as well as Plack's other works. Definitely give the sample tracks a listen.

3.0 out of 5 stars missed the AUSSIE flavor, March 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Songman (Audio CD)
I guess I was a bit put off by the white-man-in-dreadlocks flavor here. I tasted pretension. Just a bit too much funk for me. The didgeridoo is a back up instrument played again by the white-guy-in-dreads. Nature sounds here and there...loons and owls and some bush birds. Are there loons in Australia? Occasional cuts with Mr. Nomad singing totally average pop stuff. Perfectly pleasant music at times, but nothing that grabbed me. But perhaps I was influenced by Didjworks - Collective Unconscious purchased at the same time. Now that was real world music!

5.0 out of 5 stars COMING FULL CIRCLE, December 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Songman (Audio CD)
review from Magical Blend magazine (US) "NOMAD (aka Adam Plack) lived, wrote and recorded this phenomenal work under the skies of the Ramingining community in Arnhem Land. It's all about sultry grooves, entrancing Tribal beats and snake-charming didgeridoo laced with exotic chants of Aboriginal Dreamtime. This is one of the most interesting pieces of musical artist I've ventured through recently. This story is enchanting...the music comes from the Ramingining and was composed by merging ancient beats with the sounds of the Australian landscape. It is full of modern pathos and ancient chant. Listening reminds me that life is a cycle and we come "full circle" in the end." MARA BENSON, MAGICAL BLEND
