Free Music Notes for No Ordinary World
Free Music Review: I have not changed my mind?
Hit: 2 Stars
I reviewed this latest Joe Cocker release several months ago[see import version], and I still have not changed my opinion or rating. The problem with online cd reviews is hardcore fans refuse to rate a product honestly. I am as big a Joe Cocker fan as you can find, but but I am not about to award this cd 5 stars and give it some sort of classic status like some prior reviews have? This cd is lightweight fluff compared to his more energized releases like "Unchain My Heart", "One Night Of Sin","Organic" or any of his late 60's or early 70's output. I have every Joe Cocker album ever made and "No Ordinary World" is without question one of his weakest releases in a recording career that spans over 30 years. I look forward to a little more gusto with his next release.
No Ordinary World Poster
Possessed of one of the most distinctive voices of the rock era, Joe Cocker has largely made his mark by attacking other artists' songs with his shredded vocal grace and oft-inscrutable phrasing. Ironically, Cocker's has sustained his career in the 1980s and '90s largely by taming his throaty, raw power in service of increasingly tame balladry and hired-gun film work. Executive-produced by Cocker and longtime Tina Turner collaborator Roger Davies, this album soldiers on in that slick, perhaps overly professional tradition. The covers here range from pleasantly surprising (Leonard Cohen's dourly dramatic "First We'll Take Manhattan") to the superfluous (Steve Winwood's "While You See a Chance"), while the middle-of-the-road dynamics of the originals fare a bit better. Recent Cocker fans should be pleased, since his vocal prowess remains undiminished. It's his soul that seems to have mellowed; one can't help but wonder what Cocker might produce if he returned to the R&B grit of his roots. --Jerry McCulleyPop Music CDs
