CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Singing the praises of the slithering, sinewy guitar work of Adrian Belew can overlook one of the most playfully creative, genre-be-damned musical minds in rock music. This final sonic panel in the ambitious, rapid-fire triptych Belew began with "Sides" One and Two is easily its most musically adventurous. Belew reunites with the previous chapter's rhythm section of Danny Carey and Primus' Les Claypool to good effect on key tracks like the gritty funk fusion "Whatever," while other contributors include King Crimson main man Robert Fripp (the "flute guitar" of the spare, hypnotic "Water Turns to Wine") and Mel Collins (who lights up the moody "Beat Box Car" with a furious sax solo). Whether tripping through the sample-loopy Jeff Beck-meets-John Lurie ethos of the intoxicating opener "Troubles" or indulging his muse in sounds that range from the elegant pop classicism of "Men in Helicopters v4.0" to more experimental fare like the electro-pastoral "Cinemusic" and ominous "The Red Bull Rides a Boomerang Across the Blue Constellation," Belew has produced one of the most consistently intriguing albums of his career here. --Jerry McCulley Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsA great end to the trilogy Adrian A. Gutierrez | San Diego, CA | 04/18/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "Great end for Adrian Belew's three sides. I definitely recommend this album, as well as the other two sides. I believe side one is still my favorite, but followed very closely by this one, had side one not had writing on the wall and walk around the world this would have been my favorite.
Troubles... features the prophet omega on vocals... really nice groove to it, could have easily been on Mr. Music Head. Incompetence Indifference... nice to finally have it on cd... great tune Water Turns to Wine... side two type percussion, features Robert Fripp on Flute Guitar... lots of early king crimson influence (pre-Wetton era) Crunk... reminiscient of High Wire Guitar Drive... nice tune, could have been on side two, some jeff beck-like guitar though! Cinemusic... soundscape... not really a song Whatever.. featuring Les and Danny once again, great riff... not as powerful as the side one trio stuff, but definitely great playing on behalf of all three! Men In Helicopters v4.0- same as the Belewprints version except snare and bass were added, some great mccartney-on-crack bass playing Beat Box Car... continuation of beat box guitar featuring Mel Collins on Sax Truth is... nice acoustic ballad featuring mel collins on flute The Red Bull Rides A Boomerang Across The Blue Constellation... another soundscape, but a bit more mellodic than Cinemusic with little excerpts from "elephants", "dead dog on asphalt" and "asleep" &... early demo version of ampersand I suppose, since it's Ade playing the drums and bass, the guitar sounds the same as in the side one version" |
