179) Blackberry Smoke-The Whippoorwill 2012

Av Mikael Persson - 14 augusti 2013 13:46

 


This band is among the absolutely best newer bands that has emerged no matter what musical style we're talking about! They play a blend of country, rock'n'roll, blues, r&b and so on and it never gets a hard rocking edge like for example Black Stone Cherry or Lynyrd Skynyrd, instead there's a great melodic mellowness to it and fantastic singing accompaning the absolutely great songs. It's Southern Rock at it's absolutely best! Buy and enjoy!

This album reached the american country (8), indie (10), rock (12) and overall (40) charts.


1)Six ways to sunday (8,5) Rockin' and groovin' the pants off in the first song! Great!

2)Pretty little lie (7,5) Very much in the Tom Petty melodic rock vein.

3)Everbody know she's mine (8,5) Super groovy and heavy slow southern rocker with great guitar- and piano playing.

4)One horse town (9,0) An absolutely wonderful melodic low key rocker!

5)Ain't much left of me (7,5)

6)The whippoorwill (8,5) Another great soulful calm song, almost ballad-like. Such a feeling in playing and singing!

7)Lucky seven (7,0)

8)Leave a scar (8,0) Rock'n'roll!

9)Crimson man (8,0) Black Crowes-copy but with more feeling. Strong refrain!

10)Ain't got the blues (6,5) Southern stomp.

11)Sleeping dogs (8,5) Great!

12)Shakin' hands with the holy ghost (8,5) Simple riff, exciting bridge, good refrain, great vocals and guitar solo and it rocks like hell!

13)Up the road (7,5)

    Album number two from this incredible supergroup that made some unforgettable music in the 1980's! This is again melodic hardrock with a lot of keyboards and with impressing melodic, orchestral and powerful songs with fantastic vocals. A mus...

    8 years into their albumreleasingcareer J. Geils Band released another album worth of rockin' and rollin' songs but this time they took a much calmer and poppier path and not all the songs are top class anymore. It seemes like they went out ...

    This american doom-band has an interesting history. Formed as an side-project by Pentagram's Bobby Liebling and Geof O'Keefe and was completed with Randy Palmer as far back as 1973-74 when they also recorded some material which did not get r...
