Music reviews of Reunited with Jimmy Webb
Music Review: A Perfect Match
Rating: 5 Stars
Say what you will about Glen Campbell the man has one heck of a voice. Although his material often borders on, and, on occasion, crosses the "corny" line. Not so in his collaborations with the great Jimmy Webb. For a more perfect marriage of songwriter and singer, you'd have to go to Bacharach/Warwick or Carole King/Dusty Springfield.
This album is a veritable treasure trove of some of the most beautiful, yet obscure, Jimmy Webb songs. Webb's lyrics have always astounded me - so much depth for such a young man(barely out of his teens at the time). Jimmy Webb wrote some of the most poignantly mature lyrics(and, to an extent, melodies)to ever be recorded in the 20th Century. There are songs on this album - "The Moon's A Harsh Mistress", "You Might As Well Smile" - which are so sophisticated yet heart rending that you just might find your eyes welling up.
In the late 60's and early 70's, Jimmy Webb had no real competition when it came to writing songs of lost love. And, Glen Campbell's huge vocal range just serves the songwriter's intent like a hand in a glove. It's nothing short of a blessing that these 2 men worked together so well.
If you purchase no other Jimmy Webb and/or Glen Campbell album, you owe it to yourself to savor this musical feast. It's that good! But, don't take my word for it - hearing is believing.
Description of Reunited with Jimmy Webb
Reissue of the country/ pop singer's 1974 collaboration album 'Reunion' with singer/ songwriter great Jimmy Webb between 1974 & 1988. Over 78 minutes long, this edition contains all 10 of the cuts that first appeared on the record, plus 14 rare bonus tracks from later sessions, 'Christiaan No', 'Early Morning Song', 'Highwayman', 'Love Song', 'In Cars', 'Still Within The Sound O f My Voice', 'For Sure, For Certain, Forever, For Always', ' Lightning In A Bottle', 'If These Walls Could Speak', 'More Than Enough', 'Brand New Eyes', 'Light Years', 'Almost Alright Again' and 'Our Movie'. 24 tracks total. 1999 release.Country-pop singer Glen Campbell dominated the country and Top 40 charts in the late '60s and early '70s thanks to plaintive Jimmy Webb-penned classics like "Galveston," "Wichita Lineman," and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix." Though none of these early Campbell chart-toppers are included in this 24-song collection of Campbell's covers of Webb compositions, Reunited is an obscure minor masterpiece all the same. Campbell's soulful renditions of fine songs like "The Moon's a Harsh Mistress," "Highwayman," and "Lightning in a Bottle" not only remind us of Webb's timelessness as a songwriter, but also of Campbell's oft-overlooked gifts as a subtle song interpreter. --Bob Allen
