Music reviews of C.J. Fish
Music Review: Feels Like The End
Rating: 3 Stars
Like the Doors' 'LA Woman,' this album has that kind of congealed, bittersweet feel that makes it feel like a band's final recording with or without retrospect. The sound quality to me is fresh, clear and resounding all throughout even though I'm not sure if it's been remastered or not. Not completely well-versed with the band, I sort of had trouble with the cliches on here ('Rockin' Round The World' is the kind of thing that has been done to death up to and beyond 1970.) I've heard the original Sweet Lorraine from their early years and the sequel (while musically intense and genuinely atmospheric) is kind of comical while it tries to be haunting. And honestly, even things as well-recorded and perfectly mellow as 'Hang On' and 'Hand of Man' don't stand out as classics to me. They're good-better with every listen, but more like filler compared to the euphoric 'Silver And Gold,' the studio country rock masterpiece 'She's A Bird' (my favorite), the strikingly intense 'Mara' with a chilling trail-off at the end, and even the happy-go-lucky live for tomorrow 'Sing, Sing, Sing' (seemingly cliched or not). 'The Baby Song' is genuinely striking too, but I can't seem to appreciate it as much as the others. 'Hey Bobby' has heartfelt lyrics and 'The Love Machine' is an original whimsical jam but I can't think of them as stand-outs (I can't picture them jamming like the Grateful Dead). A good portion of this CD seems to have songs that seem end-to-end with the one before and after. That's not that bad. I consistently enjoy the whole listen despit everything I've said and I think it's a unique CD with the material done well enough to provide pleasure. I seriously wish the best of this band's catalog could receive some radio play on classic rock stations, espescially 'She's A Bird' and 'Silver And Gold.' The fact that the band sequalizes earlier songs in 'The Return of Sweet Lorraine' and 'Mara' (maybe a corruption of their earlier 'Maria' and 'Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine') shows this was their recorded finale. I like this CD.
