5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST ALBUM EVER!, February 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tall Blonde Helicopter (Audio CD)

This isn't just a die-hard fan pumping up a mediocre record here. "Tall Blonde Helicopter" is a criminally underrated, ignored album -- something likely to get lost in the deluge of crap that record companies are dumping into the record stores these days. I listen to a lot of records -- I review them for a living -- and this one still ranks near the top. I've turned all my friends on to this gem. Buy it, borrow it, steal it ... It's a classic.

Francis' CD TALL BLONDE HELICOPTER takes no time to get ya! From the opening power chord chunk and vocal of 48 hours, you are hooked. It's all over! Great songwriting, his arrangements go from so simple and basic to grand diossio (sic). Raw and very emotional, this CD should be on the list of everyone's MUST HAVE. I first heard Francis from my being a JETHRO TULL collector. He released a cover version of LIVING IN THE PAST. I listened to the rest of the promo CD and loved it. FEARLESS is also a very strong contender in more of a modern R 'n B style. TALL BLONDE HELICOPTER has a bit more of a guitaristic approach. LET'S GO SEE is a fine release but seemed to take a little time to see where he's goin with it and would not be a recommendation for a first time FRANCIS DUNNERY fan. I don't know much about earlier stuff ( IT BITES/ROBERT PLANT) but would love to hear some. There is a live UK only release I would love to hear also! Well once more, this CD is a MUST HAVE for any fan of music. Go to India to look on top!

Francis Dunnery's music should be heard by all. He writes such amazing songs, it is a shame he is not on the radio. If you have not heard of Francis Dunnery, please give his music a listen too. You will find yourself singing along with it very, very soon. His music is THAT good. Check out "Let's go do what happens" and "Fearless" also.
