Free Music Notes for Autoamerican
Free Music Review: Autoamerican doesn't make it for me.
Hit: 2 Stars
Sorry, I can't agree with the other reviews. For a group that pioneered hard-driving rock in the late 70's, this wild mix of eclecticism doesn't cut it for me. If I want to hear Big Band I'll listen to Benny Goodman. How can "Rapture" be heralded as the vanguard of rap, when most of rap is politically aware, but the lyrics of "Rapture" are totally inane? To me, it's a noble experiment, but a failed one.Sorry, I love Blondie, and "Eat to the Beat" is one of my top 5 albums ever, but they died here.
Free Music Review: Patchier than a jacket during the depression era
Hit: 2 Stars
This album, like 'Eat To The Beat' threatened to be, is, unfortunately, a pretentious show-off. Patchy but with occasional moments of glory, 'Autoamerican' attempts to boast a bold step forward in musical electicity but instead falls one superfluous step backwards. Jazz, prog. rock, country and broadway musical are all represented on the same record, but the tracks do not do their respective genres justice often enough.Best Tracks: The Tide Is High, Angels On The Balcony.
