Music reviews of Heaven & Hull (Master Series)Music Review: RONSON'S LAST HURRAH
Mick Ronson was a great guitar player who never really got the recognition he deserved. He never showed alot of flash in his playing, which is why he didn't reach the heights of some of those other guitar heroes of the 70's. But this guy was on the most wanted list when it came to being a guitar player/producer for hire. He propelled David Bowie to super-stardom during his 1972-74 Ziggy Stardust days. He produced Lou Reed's comeback album. He was a member of Bob Dylan's 1975 Rolling Thunder Revue. And he collaberated with Mott The Hoople and was Ian Hunter's guitar player for years. Some of these friends he helped along the way, he gathered for this all-star solo release, which turned out to be his own posthumous tribute album, which was released a year after his death. Special guests on here that do most of the vocal chores are David Bowie, who does "Like A Rolling Stone". Chrissie Hynde, who does a nice vocal duet with Ronson on "Trouble With Me". John Mellencamp, vocals on "Life's a River". Joe Elliott from Def Leppard, who had a big part in making this album happen, does the vocals on the great opening tune "Don't Look Down". And his longtime friend Ian Hunter, who does vocals on a little more rocked up version of the classic "All The Young Dudes". Ronson shows some of his best fretwork on the rockin' "Colour Me", and the beautiful instrumental "Midnight Love". Except for the first cut "Don't Look Back", there's nothing here that absolutely knocked my socks off. But it's still a good solid effort that I liked better than his 2 mid-seventies albums that were critically praised, but sounded like they were a little bit too much on the David Bowie glam rock side for my taste. Heaven and Hull is a good addition to the Ronson catalogue.
