Free Music Review: I was ruined by the Live Seeds album
Hit: 3 Stars
To me, this is the weakest of Nick's albums, but only because I was ruined by buying the Live Seeds album before purchasing this one. I'm sure my opinion may have been different if I'd gotten this album first. I heard the songs "Papa Won't Leave You, Henry", "Brother, My Cup is Empty", and "John Finn's Wife" on the Live Seeds album and LOVED them. They were extraordinarily powerful and I was amazed at how wonderful Nick and the Bad Seeds sounded live. I ended up liking the live versions of "Deanna", "The Ship Song", and "New Morning" much more than the originals, and because of this Henry's Dream was a let down. The album versions of the songs mentioned aren't half as powerful or moving as the live versions (although "John Finn's Wife" does have some great strings in it that the live version doesn't). I do especially enjoy the sappier songs -- "Straight to You" and "The Loom of the Land". The first time I heard "Straight to You" is when I saw the video on The Videos collection. Though it is somewhat sale outish, it's still wonderful and still very much Nick. My suggestion to anyone who wishes to purchase this album is this: if you already have the Live Seeds album, don't expect much; if not, you're in for a treat, as Nick and the Seeds are always apt to offer.
