Clark Yost - Too Much Fun in a No Fun Zone
Limeygit
Ho hum. This is a CD by a guitar player for other guitar players, simple
as that really. It proudly bills itself as containing "REAL Rock n Roll!!".
If your definition of Rock n Roll is familiar licks, trite lyrics and so-so
production then maybe, otherwise this is an album best left to those who
have just picked up a guitar and dream of one day torturing innocent pub-goers
(or worse those silly fools who thought it would be a cool, and romantic,
idea to take a trip on a river boat in Savannah), with a combination of
their own, and other peoples, 'classic' songs.
I hate to be harsh in reviews, but I have to say I found little of
use here, I will give you a sample of the lyrics. "Sweet Vegas lady, play
my music in the night. Sweet Vegas lady, it’s you and me till the morning
light." Imagine this accompanied by a seeming never ending semi-heavy-metal
guitar solo and you begin to get the idea.
There is a market for this music, and if that is you then mosey on
over to Mr. Yost’s website and learn how to buy it. Also don’t assume I
am against this genre of music without any exceptions, it is just this
is not an album that forces any kind of reaction. I don’t sense any huge
amount of skill, passion, integrity, style or anything else on this release.
Still if it might be your thing, then check it out.
