8/30/25

Brad Mehldau- Ride Into The Sun (2025)- ****1/2
(Even better on second spin. Contender for my Top 5 of 2025.)

Maurice Brown- Betta Days (2025)-  ***

Paul Weller- A Kind Revolution (2017)- ****

(I was not a fan of this record when it came out. But time has been kind and it's now a favorite. Not sure what I was hearing in 2017.)


Goo Goo Dolls- Summer Anthem (2025)- **1/2

Oasis- Dig Out Your Soul (2008)- ***1/2
(If I had heard this record before, I have no recollection. Not bad. But they just don't keep me engaged. Every album starts to feel like one long song halfway in...except "Morning Glory.")

Belinda Carlisle- Once Upon A Time In California (2025)- ***
(I like the song selection, but she sounds like she is trying to pass an audition, over-enunciating, adding annoying vibrato. These are AM pop hits and she is singing them like a Gilbert & Sullivan musical.)



 

 

Peter Gabriel- S/T (1978)- ***1/2
The Rolling Stones- Between The Buttons (1967, U.K. MONO)- ****
