Music reviews of SMiLE
Music Review: Outstanding!
Rating: 5 Stars
I had been looking at this album for a while, deciding whether or not to buy it. I saw the 600+ reviews on Amazon (they are mostly 5*) and thought 'this is either a lot of hype or it is truly a good album'...I finally broke down and bought it. I plugged it into the surround sound, shut my eyes, and listened.
It only took a minute before I was 'SMiLE'ing...I was happy with my purchase and was only 60 seconds into the album. 'Our Prayer/Gee' leads into 'Heroes and Villains' with such awesome power...'Heroes and Villains' itself is one amazing song. Most of the album carries on this power. Some songs I don't like so much ('Vega-Tables', 'Barnyard'), but other songs (such as 'On a Holiday', 'Wind Chimes', and, of course, 'Surf's up') blew me away.
I was hoping for a 'Pet Sounds part II' but didn't get it...I got an album almost opposite of 'Pet Sounds' but just as powerful. From the harmonies to the instrumentals to the lyrics, this album outdoes most of the music I have listened to, period.
Had this album been released in the 1960s I wonder how much different the music world would be now...I suppose we will never know, but at least here in the new millennium we can enjoy a piece of history that was nearly 40 years in the making.
5/5
Description of SMiLE
Smile is inarguably the most long-awaited album in modern pop history. It's been more than 37 years since the title first appeared on a label release schedule, intended as the January 1967 follow-up to the groundbreaking art-rock of the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds. But Smile never made its initial release date. Today, this album is not a mere reconstruction of past performances, but something entirely new, a serious summation of a project that has been gestating for nearly four decades.General CDs
