Free Music Notes for Dirty Deal
Free Music Review: Solid but not great
Hit: 4 Stars
Having had the pleasure of seeing Coco live early in 2007, I was awaiting this CD for a while. However, I found the songs on "Dirty Deal" a little repetitious and a little too predictable. Dirty Deal takes a while to get rolling. There are several great songs, such as "Coin Operated Love", "Put the shoe on the other foot" and "Ain't no breakman," which make this CD one which will get a lot of play, but for my money, I liked his 2002 "Can't Look Back" better. Free Music Review: As smooth as silk
Hit: 5 Stars
This guy out smoothes even Robert Cray and that is saying something!
He started out as a drummer and took up playing the guitar in later years and thank heaven that he did.
He was lead axeman for John Mayall and The Bluesbreakers for a while before leaving and doing 'his own thing'. John has a great eye for spotting talent including a certain Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor, Walter Trout and so on. Now I wouldn't necessarily put Coco up with the best of them but he is not far behind.
He has an amazing voice and is skilled with the guitar.
Great late night listening so stoke up the fire, get a bottle of red wine open, some good company and enjoy.
Free Music Review: electric blues for everyone
Hit: 4 Stars
you can put this cd just very near to previous by coco on your shelf. long electric guitar solos, nice songs and good virtuosity. not very good singing, a coloured singer could have done much better. but the whole recording is enjoyable and you can buy it, like i did for this and all the previous by montoya. if you like white blues from british mayall school, this is a recording for you.Free Music Review: Gotta Mind to Travel is much better
Hit: 3 Stars
If you have heard "Travel" and you are looking for something completely different, this might work for you. The direction was a little too different for me.Free Music Review: Predictable, but worth a listen
Hit: 4 Stars
I've been a Coco fan for many years and truly appreciate his soulful voice and guitar chops. Dirty Deal is a solid offering from Coco, but as I ssaid in the title, the song are a little predictable and not quite as dynamic as some of his earlier offerings. Don't get me wrong, it's still an enjoyable listen, just less poignant than the older stuff.
