Music reviews of "Valleys Of Neptune" Vinyl 45 (Limited Edition)
Music Review: Cool to have these songs in analog
Rating: 3 Stars
This isn't a bad single release but I found myself actually liking the b-side "Cat Talking To Me" with of all people, Mitch Mitchell on lead vocal, better than the "Valley of Neptune" side. Valley Of Neptune seems a bit unfinished and seems to be a longer version of the same tape of the "Valley Of Neptune" version found on the 4-CD "Lifelines" box set, which had muddy sound and edited to about 2 1/2 minutes, where this one is around 4 minutes.
Nice sound overall, courtesy of Eddie Kramer. "Cat Talking To Me" sounds like a song done for fun for a b-side and was probably done in one take, and is only available on this single (why?).
Overall, an interesting listen but will this be one that will be requested very often? Probably not. As much of a fan of the latter phase of Hendrix, just not a great song compared to others but perhaps not a fair judgment, since it was never fully completed to Jimi's satisfaction. Now I'm waiting for the full-length CD to see how all of that measures up for "new, unreleased" Hendrix.
I agree with other reviewers why couldn't they include all of these songs on the disk instead of making us buy a 45 single?
One real beef I have is my copy came scratched, brand-new, on the a-side. Why are almost all new 45 singles scratched when you buy them brand new? It's like the record company really doesn't give a dang and just throws them around? Seriously, I'd like to know why that happens so often. I remember a Bob Dylan 45 single that was a promo around 7-8 years ago that came with buying the new CD when it came out, and every copy I ever saw of it was scratched, too. I took my copy back, dug through the whole stack the store had, and every one of them was scratched.
