4.0 out of 5 stars A pleasant surprise, December 19, 1999

By

This review is from: Tribute to Paul Mccartney & Wings (Audio CD)

At first glance, I didn't know what to expect from Denny Laine's newest album. However, I was pleasantly surprised to hear how well Denny sounds after being black-listed for the past 20 years. On Blackbird, it seems Denny almost mocks one of Paul's favorite tunes. However, this album seems to represent a forgive and forget attitude on Laine's behalf. Contrary to other reviews, the masterfully produced bonus tracks which beg for Paul's direction and input, lead one to wonder if the tracks have a place in the forthcoming Wings Anthology? True Wings and McCartney fans must BUY THIS CD, you won't be let down.

2.0 out of 5 stars A good idea played very wrongly, July 19, 2000

By 

Mike Klinski (Black Hawk, South Dakota USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tribute to Paul Mccartney & Wings (Audio CD)

Dont get me wrong, I am a huge Paul McCartney and Wings fan, that's why I bought this album. I loved Denny's songs with Wings back in the 70's. But, unfortunately, time has took its toll on our friend Denny. The songs are poorly sung and sound like a chicken being rung around its neck occasionally. Often, Denny strains to get at the right notes and often hits the wrong note entirely. OUCH! Again, the instruments play the songs very well, but it doesn't matter if the voice is bad. Only two songs save the day..GO NOW and SEND ME THE HEART. Otherwise, avoid this at all costs. Sorry Denny, I love you but this album doesnt do you justice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Warm and Intimate - A Great CD, June 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tribute to Paul Mccartney & Wings (Audio CD)

Denny Laine's stunningly beautiful tribute album, is warm and cozy. His fresh versions of old material sound so intimate, you'd swear that Denny was sitting right there in your living room playing the songs for you with his acoustic guitar.

I loved Wings back 20-25 years ago when they were on top of the charts, and the songs on this CD remind me why I loved Wings.

Thanks Denny, for rekindling old memories.
