Free Music Notes for Best of Gilbert O'Sullivan
Free Music Review: A CLASSIC, must-have for O'Sullivan fans
Hit: 5 Stars
Let me begin by saying this: I LOVE Gilbert O'Sullivan. Not like....LOVE. Now, one of the reasons I happen to LOVE O'Sullivan is because of how much he reminds me of Paul McCartney. Because, you see, I LOVE Paul McCartney also. More specifically, I LOVE the Paul McCartney of the Beatles days and his Wings days. With all due respect for the witty reviewer from Tacoma, WA, I have to say that anyone who would even try to suggest that Paul McCartney is put to shame by Gilbert O'Sullivan is missing some of their marbles. You have to have more respect for the "original" than you are showing with your comments. The "original", of course, being McCartney...without whom, Gilbert would not even have had a career. (a fair statement given that Gilbert CLEARLY took after Paul's stylings in his melodic approach...and was successful because of it) If you dis-like McCartney so much, then how on earth can you like Gilbert O'Sullivan? I'm taking a wild guess that you also prefer Badfinger over McCartney? (another artist that owes their career to the former Beatle). While I would agree that the solo McCartney has put out his share of really LAME stuff, the fact remains he has also written COUNTLESS classics...many more than could ever fit onto a SINGLE compilation CD. (I don't need to start listing all of the songs, do I?) Come on, man! If you are going to play "Music Reviewer", at least put things into their proper perspective!!!
Anyway...now that I've gotten that off my chest, if you are in your mid thirties like me, or older...then music like Gilbert O'Sullivan's really takes you back down memory lane. I have nothing but fond memories whenever I hear songs like "Clair" or "Alone Again (Naturally)". As a singer-songwriter myself, I am absolutely blown away at the melodic structure of Gilbert's music...as well as his lyrical style. Some previous reviewer had a shall we say "interesting" interpretation on the meaning behind "Clair". Call me naive, but I really think it's merely an innocent song about an Uncle's sincere doting and love of his neice. (Yes...this type of love still ACTUALLY exists!) Anyway...unfortunately, nobody is making music like this anymore. Maybe that's what makes artists like Gilbert O'Sullivan so timeless.
My final comment is simply this: YIKES!!! What's the deal with that PRICE tag???? OUCH!!! Am I buying a CD or a magazing subscription???
