Free Music Review: Great Compilation
Hit: 5 Stars
Pacific Ocean Blue - Legacy Edition This review is for those who bash what they do not know, Dennis Wilson had the potential to go way beyond this album. For those who say that this was a "Vanity" project, well think again. This release is full of true emotion, sometimes to hard to come by in this industry which is full of wasteful beats, shallow lyrics and recycled sounds. You have to remember that these tracks were recorded from 1973-1977 in mostly private small sudios except for some of the tracks that were to be off of his "Bambu" LP then changed to Bamboo which sadly was never finished. Sure his roots were from The Beach Boys and sure that music was simple happy and just plain catchy and that was the point, but that was the essence of The Beach Boys and Surfing. For those who call them a Bubble Gum Band is someone who doesn't get it, they were and always will be Americana. Now that that was said, there aren't many songwriters out there who's artistic showcase consists of music in a single release that contains the pool of styles that this release does. You really have to listen carefully to fully understand that this album contains more musical Genres than any other ever released. Sure his vocal skills are not stellar (well unless you put him next to Dylan), but to compose such a complicated album for his first Solo act as a singer,Songwriter it's excellent in it's own right. Is it a masterpiece, no of course not it is an amalgamation of styles that makes this a great album. After all what else could you expect from the Driving force behind Good Vibrations (and no it was not "just" Brian Wilson like everybody thinks, you have to hear the complete 73 track session recordings to know). This album oozes heart and torment, except for a few lighter tracks. Who knows how far he could have gone if he did not drown in '83. In my opinion & FYI (I don't care what others might think) he truly was ahead of his time. Highly Recommended.
Pacific Ocean Blue - Legacy Edition Poster
Deluxe Edition Two CD set of 33 tracks with Limited Edition First Run Collector's Packaging. After 30 years, this lost classic reemerges to the delight of fans worldwide. Since coming out in 1977, this CD had only been released for six months in 1991. This collection contains never officially released tracks from Dennis' Bambu album which only existed as bootlegs for decades. Per Dennis Wilson 'Everything that I am or will ever be is in the music. If you want to know me, just listen.' Features 'Holy Man' an unfinished track that never received Dennis' vocal part with Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters laying down brand new vocals. This limited edition deluxe packing feature 50 page, full color book with two brand new essays and never-before-seen photos and memorabilia.Apart from the non-release of Smile, the biggest lament of hardcore Beach Boys fans is that Bruce Johnston aside, none of the non-Brian Wilson solo albums are available on CD. But now, for fans of late drummer Dennis Wilson, there's reason to celebrate as his only-released solo album gets the reissue it deserves. Widely acknowledged as the finest Beach Boys solo effort, it's now presented with clarity, allowing the full sonic palette--the punch of opening "River Song" for example--to be heard in its intended glory. Wilson's raspy vocal may have been past its prime, but it's still affecting and ably supported by the sumptuous production values he gave the album. With high quality tracks such as the funky "Dreamer" and the poignant "Farewell My Friend", this will appeal to anyone with even a passing interest in The Beach Boys, as well as a delight for hardcore fans as the unreleased tracks (from the unfinished follow up Bambu, easily match the original's quality. While the disappointing absence of earlier singles ("Lady" or "Sound of Free") prevents this from being a definitive career anthology, this is as essential a Beach Boys artefact as Pet Sounds or Sunflower/Surf's Up. --Thom Allott
