Music reviews of Jack's Crows
Music Review: John Gorka's Single Most Signifcant Offering
Rating: 5 Stars
Back in the early 90's, a very mellow young man who was a co-worker of mine and was completely sixties in his way although he wasn't even born then, commandeered me to a music store and convinced me to purchase a tape by someone named John Gorka entitled Jack's Crows. I thought it was either a bad joke of his or maybe one of those esoteric peccadilloes that he had and no one else in the world could verify it.But just as I was outstandingly impressed as I was when I first listened to Steve Poltz and Thea Gilmore for the first time, John Gorka struck me as unusually interesting and pleasurable as a folk recording artist. As in his compositions Where the Bottles Break and I'm from New Jersey and Houses in the Field we see a very masculine and imposing style where lyrics are king and technique a strong equalizer. You will have to forgive me but it is hard for me to believe that how with all the sheer mediocrity and trite delivery that we see in some of today's "Idol Music" which applies to both amateur and professional attempts at producing musical content, that singer songwriters like Gorka and Poltz do not have the name recognition that you would think would follow such competent artists. Again I will tell my readers that I am pushing the purchase button on this CD myself because after all these years my John Gorka tape is a little skewed and I really need to hear his music, which never goes out of style in my view.
