CD ReviewsVery nice, very fresh and personal, more than great! I. MUNOZ | Montreal, PQ, Canada | 05/02/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I admit that I picked this one up almost waiting to find just another album in the vein of Satch,Vai and the likes. Fortunately, I was completely wrong. This album is so great! It has few (if something) to do with Vai or Satch, and still has earned a very special place in my collection of CDs. I have to confess that I prefer it even to Jake's output with Badlands -- which to many here would be big words from my part. And if you only know about what Jake E. Lee did while with Ozzy you're just missing the best part of the movie: please check Badlands and, of course, this. Jake's bests are there! First of all, "A Fine Pink Mist" is a breath of fresh air in the instrumental heavy metal guitar world. I wish more players had the talent and the freshness to keep themselves away from the "mainstream" trends imposed by Satch/Vai on one side, and by Yngwie Malmsteen on another. This is exactly what Jake E. Lee successfully does in this release: he stays away from those already-ultra-ripped-off tendencies while writing his own musical statements. Yes, "A Fine Pink Mist" is heavy enough to please metal fans. Yes, it has some aggressive moments. Yes, Jake E. Lee can shred if he wants... But no, he's not a copycat of the aforementioned guitarists. He's a talented axeman on his own that in my opinion has entered in the selected group of the greatest ever with this album. From the opening track in "A Fine Pink Mist" to the last one Jake E. Lee demonstrates that he is a very sensible and creative musician. I give credit to every piece there: "Exithouse", for the nice groove; "Demon A Go-Go" for the bluesy and tender playing; "The Rapture", for the mood changes and the fantastic licks; "I Magnify", for the experimental and ethereal feeling it has; "Luna Gitana", for the excellent exploration on the acoustic guitar; "The Velvet Fire", for the explosiveness and the unpredictability; "Bludfuk", for the heavy riffing, weird noises and dark mood... hey, all of them are really great pieces! On the bad side, if there's something to criticize it would be Jake's guitar tone -- well guys and gals, don't take me too much seriously now, because I'm a tone freak, ok? So, I think his tone is kind of muddy, often noisy and dirty; and somewhat "dry", thin and with sparse use of well-controlled finger vibrato in the leads. However, his music in this album is so amazing that for once I won't care about the guitar tone to give five stars to it. I understand after all that Lee has found his own voice, even if I don't like it that much. His personal signature is there, as well as the soul of a true artist. Hats off to him for this masterpiece! Again, five stars! A must for metal guitar fans, mostly if you're desesperate to listen to something really different. Go for it NOW! :-) " Master Rebel-Jake E. Lee snowghost | Sacramento, CA USA | 08/04/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have this excellent Instrumental CD A Fine Pink Mist-by Jake E. Lee (formerly of Ozzy Osbourne and Badlands fame) and it's an Electric Sci-fi Rock/Blues sultry Masterpiece. Jake E. Lee mastery fingerworks enraptures you in from take off to landing on an journey quest that you'll surely will remember and want more of, great Music! The "whole" CD of "A Fine Pink Mist" has an Cinematic sultry Galactic feel to it as "each-electric" song unfolds it's story..-this is an wonderful Heavy enrapturing Instrumental Debut by Jake E. Lee and hope that the Rebel Legend will do "more" Instrumentals as well as "finish" the CD Projects with Mandy Lion (WWIII fame) in Wicked Alliance and also his side Project with Bourgeois Pigs Co-Partners Richard Black and Michael Guy." The Two Jakes C. Coffey | North Cackalacky | 07/08/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "The nice thing about Jake doing this record away from the limelight is that he did this on his own terms. Excuse me, he did this on his own incredibly talented terms.
Fine Pink Mist is a sensasional work that only gets better with each listening. With the demise of Badlands I was anxious for something from Jake, and this is the perfect fix (although it was a long time coming for me). If you have the slightest interest in Jake's other work (Badlands and Ozzy (Bark at the Moon and Ultimate Sin)) this is a must for you. You won't be disappointed." |
