A bit of a disappointment,
By A Customer
This review is from: Under the Spell (Audio CD)
I've had the pleasure of both meeting Dave Hole in person and seeing him perform live. I decided to skip the two shows in Chicago this past month, though, as this release soured me a bit on him. Dave Hole, like many artists, loses a bit with each release. The smoke and fire of his first two releases just isn't there anymore. Each release is of lesser quality than the one before it. I'm afraid the next one will be acoustic. If you're a true Dave Hole fan, this one can find a spot in the collection. For first time buyers, however, check out the searing "Short Fuse Blues" and "Working Overtime".

It's Just Different,
By
This review is from: Under the Spell (Audio CD)
This album isn't as "in your face" as some of his other work. Do we need the same album repeated over and over? Enjoy the diversity or just put the first album on and set your CD player for repeat play!! Let the man explore a bit.

Top quality blues rock from a highly underrated player,
By A Customer
This review is from: Under the Spell (Audio CD)
Dave Hole is Australian and unfortunately not well known, which is a pity because he is one of the best blues and slide guitar players in the world.All of his albums are good, and this one is no exception. If you ever have a chance to see him, and I believe that he is on tour in the Europe and the States in July / Sept, you will not be disappointed. Great player, great show.

Finally Ran Out of Steam,
By A Customer
This review is from: Under the Spell (Audio CD)
Mr. Hole's first two efforts, "Short Fuse Blues" and "Working Overtime," just blew me away with his monstrous electric slide playing. I didn't think he could possibly top them, but he did with his next two efforts, "Steel on Steel" and "Ticket to Chicago." But "Under the Spell" lacks the fire, intensity and quality songwriting of these previous efforts, and especially is missing the outstanding acoustic numbers that peppered "Steel" and "Chicago." I'm a huge Dave Hole fan, but I ended up Ebay-ing this one. Not an awful album, just not up to par with his previous four. Not the place to start if you want the definitive Dave Hole.
