CD Details
Synopsis
Album Description An album of familiar classics you've never heard before! Cassard has crafted an acoustic-electric blend both powerful and subtle, sophisticated and direct, with incisive lyrics & enough mind-blowing harmonies to make you grab your headphones. Neil Diamond's old nugget, Holly Holy, is unearthed and given the edge it always deserved. Not to be missed by fans of classic rock who hunger for the glory days of Beatles, Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac and Pink Floyd. The gorgeous video/film of 10,000 Flowers has been a staple of underground TV for the past year and is a psychedelic feast for the eyes. |
CD ReviewsUltimate valentine song William Mandigo | Aliso Viejo,CA | 01/17/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "I can't get Cassard's "Ten thousand flowers" out of my head, it's the ultimate valentine. His lyrics are inventive - I want to give you ten thousand flowers, I want to give you an emotional shower - my girlfiend said "that's what every woman wants to hear from her man! If you still love the Beatles Rubber Soul through Abbey Road than you need to GET THIS!" Whoa... William Mandigo | 06/10/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "I laffed, I cried, it B-came a part of meeeee... I think the song Get This has the coolest lyrics I've ever heard (hint...MP3.com)." Don't think of this as bias. Dylan Cassard | San Francisco, CA USA | 12/14/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "This guy is my dad. But that aside, this album is fantastic. I heard him singing these songs all the time growing up, and I still get them stuck in my head with joy. Sometimes I even say, "what artist is that? I love that song! Oh yeah... It's my dad."
I can honestly say this album is on my iPod and would be there whether Robert Cassard was my dad or not. I've given it to every friend for one Columbus day or another, and they have all been shocked at how good it is. Here's to the eventual next album, it's been a long time coming. Dylan Michael Waters Cassard." |
