CD Reviews

Fine album, but not one of his best.
Mac Tipton | Moody, Alabama | 01/10/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"In my opinion, Songs for a Tailor is Jack's best album, with Harmony Row a close second. Simply put, they are masterpieces. HOW'S TRICKS, which came years later, is a fine effort, but not of the same calibre as the others just mentioned. Fans of his earlier work will enjoy hearing Jack's distinctive voice here and his fluid bass playing that sounds almost like a tuba. Most of the lyrics are similar to those in his early work, very surrealistic. There are several straightforward rock songs here like Baby Jane that don't do much for me. But, overall, a fine effort. I have never heard the CD, but have an old vinyl LP, which I enjoy hearing from time to time. I recommend HOW'S TRICKS for long-time fans. But newbies should start with his best work, Songs for a Tailor or Harmony Row."
