Free Music Notes for Magic
Free Music Review: Magic - Damn Right
Hit: 5 Stars
I can say that some of the songs on this cd do not really get me going, but as a lifelong Springsteen fan, my copy sounds perfect and I say him live during this tour and it was also my first concert ever and my only regret was not being able to go to 3 or 4 concerts in a row . Freaking incredible.
Even if you dont love a song or two on this album , they all still have that special something that makes my 3year old daughter just stand up and jam out
Free Music Review: Amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
This has some incredible stuff on it, my favorite being "Long Walk Home," but throughout the record you keep getting surprised by all the styles he embraces, the quality of the songs, singing and production. The energy level in general is through the roof.
This is probably his most original and experimental record. Rather than go for the classic sound of Roy Bittans piano based songs like his older material, he tries a lot of styles, and you can hear a little Eleanor Rigby (Your Own Worst Enemy), Beach Boys, (Girls in Their Summer Dress), classic Springsteen (I'll Work For Your Love), Hick Springsteen (The bonus track, written for a close friends funeral), etc.
This is a very eclectic album, and his best in at least 25 years, maybe his best since the 70's. Born in the USA seemed a bit commercial, The River didn't fit together as seemlesly as this one. It has a new sound and a raw energy that makes it a modern classic, without necessarily being classic rock. But he seems to have actually grown as a songwriter and singer, which is rare for a rock musician of his age.
This album is not a tired performer and band running on fumes or just reliving past glory. He's creating new ones. I must have listened to it 25 times since getting it a week ago. It's not "Jungleland," or "Thunder Road" but it fits into it's own category. And as others have mentioned, it may very well be the best album of 2007.
Free Music Review: bruce still rocks after these years
Hit: 5 Stars
Buy this cd, then see bruce live."Gyspy biker, long walk home and girls in their summer colthes" is so much better live than the studio recordings.Free Music Review: E Street Band Magic
Hit: 5 Stars
I love Bruce....but I love Bruce with the E Street Band better. I've always felt that magic was what happened whenever I went to a show. I have always wondered if the band also were in as much disbelief as I was that such intense magic happened one more night...and why to them. This album delivers that magic. It's my favorite in a long time. Danny will be missed.Free Music Review: Ancient but still in the game
Hit: 5 Stars
Just when I think I couldn't care less about rock anymore, along comes "Magic". It manages to be both contemporary and classic at the same time. The lyrics of these songs talk to an American soul that cares about more than comfort and bling. The sound is straight ahead rock - muddy and coarse when it should be and sharp as glass when it needs to be.
Bruce and the E have fulfilled their promise - mature and vital.Magic
