Music reviews of Will Failure Spoil Jean Shepherd?
Music Review: Mixed Bag from a Master Raconteur
Rating: 4 Stars
"The King of the Night People" spins his yarns and shares his insights in this, a wonderful collection of some of Shep's better bits. I, for one, never really "got" the enthusiasm over Shep's preoccupation with Orphan Annie, a cut on this CD that I personally would skip. Where this late, underrated cult figure excelled, I believe, was in his trenchant social commentary and understanding of the human psyche. Here, two riffs - one related to Role Reversal, the other to the connection between male sexuality and autos - presaged societal trends, and they really hit their mark.
Shep was at his finest in the late Fifties to mid-Sixties, and this CD captures some of his better material quite nicely.
