Music reviews of Stolen Apples
Music Review: His worst CD, unfortunately
Rating: 2 Stars
I have nearly every Paul Kelly CD available, and I really wanted to like this CD. Unfortunately, I think it is his worst CD. Paul Kelly has always impressed me with his ability to create a hook and sing in a warm, familiar style. This CD has two great songs on in, "Fields of France" and "You're 39, you're beautiful, and you're mine". These two songs stand up to the best of his work.
As for the rest of the CD, Kelly comes across as cynical and even bitter. "Right outta my head" is the worst song that he has ever recorded. The lyrical content of this song is poorly executed. The other songs are passable, but Kelly has never filled an album full of filler, as he has here. This is the man who came up with many instantly memorable songs, his career is a long testimony to his ability to write great music. Here, few of the songs sink in, they are either too wordy, or the melody just does not catch. His guitar work comes across as dense, instaed of lyrical. The thing is that he is a great musican, who has consistently impressed over the years, in comparsion, this work suffers against his own standard. The sticker on the front warns of explicit lyrical content, entirely due to "Right Outta my Head", what the sticker should have mentioned was that any other Cd of his would be a better choice for the listener.
Paul Kelly is one of my favorites, so it saddens me to write this, 'Gossip", "Comedy" and "Wanted Man" are were I would start, if you were new to Paul Kelly. Hopefully, this is just a short abberation.
