Free Music Review: Non-plussed with Joe Strummer's Global A-Go-Go
Hit: 2 Stars
I recently drove with a younger friend (40's) on a short trip, and he played this disk along the way--it caught my ear, but we were talking much of the time. As I was intrigued, I asked him about it and ordered it through Amazon. Unfortunately it didn't live up to my first impression: although I still like a few of the cuts fairly well, I'd describe most of it as random cacophony, a senseless mixture of sounds, styles, instruments, and noise common in modern youth and adults who 'grew up' over the last 30 or 40 years, thinking that to be frenetic is to be cool. To me, it's simply annoying, but then, how cool am I?: Apparently Joe Strummer has been around for many years although I don't think I've ever heard of him until now.
