CD Reviews

Not bad.

11/10/1999

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album didn't really dissapoint me at first. There is some good playing and some interesting ideas. However, it tyres rather quickly. I feel Marty was experimenting a little too much. The album just doesn't flow. Some songs start off quite well and just become messy and jarring (eg. "intoxicated and "the yearning"). Also the songs with vocals sound a bit too 80's for me, but I guess that isn't always a bad thing. "True Obsessions" is no way near the standard of "Scenes" where he was really trying to emote feelings through his playing. All the same it is still rather good. Songs such as Rio and Fairwell hit the spot. If you liked Marty's other albums you will probably like this one."

Essential listening...

"A third version of the "Thunder March" piece shows how much potential Marty's music has, and makes this album a very rewarding experience. The rest of it ain't gonna disappoint ya either."
