Music reviews of Rising
Music Review: Let Yoko rise and conquer....
Rating: 5 Stars
I hadn't played this album/CD in a long time, despite my love of Yoko's music. So I finally broke it out again, and it's awesome. Yoko was asked to compose some songs for a play called Hiroshima. Memories of the bombing and the war (Yoko lived through the Allied bombing of WWII, and the scars are still there) inspired her to compose an entire album. It was her first CD in quite some time (almost 10 years), but she didn't miss one beat. She sounds as fresh and as engaged as she did with her early work with John. This is one of her finest works, a scarred, scary, but ultimately human portrait of our world. I especially like New York Woman, the brilliant, deeply sad Turned the Corner (with a dark, great vocal by Yoko), the cathartic I'm Dying (which is reminiscent of Don't Worry, Kyoko), the epic title track, and the sweet, sincere finale Revelations. Sean Ono Lennon's band, IMA, backs her very well, with some really powerful bass and crazy guitar (especially on the track I'm Dying). This is essential Yoko, another phenomenal recording from a phenomenal, grossly maligned woman.
