Music reviews of Forever Blue
Music Review: Sorrow on tap
Rating: 5 Stars
Like many a songster before him, Chris Isaak has pulled together an album of heartbreak. Like Sinatra's 'Wee Small Hours', he has pieced together a collection of songs about a certain theme. That theme is desolation. The exception is that he has written these songs himself, and they are written about himself. Do you need to know the specific details? No. If you have been through this, you will get it. And, if you are going through it, there is no better cure. You will feel the loss and anger and desperation all over again. Perhaps you are fine now, but you want to relive a little of the pain? Yes, this will do it. We humans are strange things. We cling to our extremes - we yearn to relive the best and worst. This album is rock bottom on record.
Description of Forever Blue
With his singular retro-rock vision, Chris Isaak had already graduated from cult figure to music-video heartthrob when he delivered this 1995 album. But if all the surface elements are intact, he has assimilated his chief vocal influences, Orbison and Elvis, even further, and Isaak's songs dig even deeper into his favorite subject, heartbreak, to shorten the distance between writer and singer. "Baby Did a Bad, Bad Thing," the set's opener, employs the same growling rock-speak as George Thorogood's notorious "Bad to the Bone," but without a trace of irony--Isaak lashes the listener with the torment of a betrayed lover, telegraphing fear, desire, and anguish as he wheels from rumbling accusations to keening falsetto cries. Elsewhere, he withdraws to the more lyrical croon of his previous work, his band wreathed with the throbbing tremolo and ghostly reverb that are their natural elements. There's a folk-rock jangle to the lovely, forlorn "Somebody's Crying," a disarming directness to the simple but aching title song, and another burst of fevered agony, "Go Walking Down There,"which gallops over a perfect mid-'60s guitar arrangement. For all its letter-perfect allusiveness, though, Forever Blue feels authentically heartbroken, not just cleverly crafted. --Sam SutherlandGeneral CDs
