Free Music Notes for The Future Is Unwritten
Free Music Review: I don't know you
Hit: 5 Stars
...but if I did, I doubt I'd respect you if you're reading this. Honestly. This is another product that you probably already know is good or you wouldn't be on this page. I ordered this CD because I liked the title song from "John From Cincinnati" (which is included). Since I got exactly what I wanted plus other songs from the same artist, I'm really damn happy.
Bottom line: If you're here, you're probably a fan, or someone recommended to you. If so, then BUY, you're here and it's likely that with your money the artist will have the time to produce more stuff like this that I, at least, like.

PS: I'd say "thanks for your time", but I really hope you pushed 'add to cart' and didn't scroll down to read my review.

Free Music Review: A well done tribute
Hit: 5 Stars
I think this is a great album! It is, of course, a soundtrack strictly speaking but it sounds more like a mix CD from a very cool friend with broad musical tastes. Yet it does all tie together because of who it's about. There are few compillations that cover so much territory and yet flow so evenly. I can't wait to see the film!Free Music Review: great mix of some music not heard much plus some old favorites from the clash
Hit: 5 Stars
I like this, and the film I saw on IFC, i brought the cd after watching the movie,, there is quite a mix, some old stuff you can tell was not done in a studio but it has a nice feel not too polished like old stuff a bit scratchy but it adds to itFree Music Review: Insightful and entertaining eollection
Hit: 4 Stars
It's hard living off the scraps that may come our way now that the great man has gone and I'm sure there will be some pretty crass compilations in days to come! This however is skillfully put together and paints a picture of the man through the music he wrote and the music he loved. The opening studio take of just his voice singing White Riot sends a chill and as the full song commences memories flood back of sweaty Top Ranks and the band blasting away within touching distance of the audience.Following thisThere is a very unusual rendition of Rock the Casbah in Arabic however the most part is taken up by Joe playing songs from his radio show all of which are special. My particular favorite is the U Roy song. Many of you will have bought the 'Front Line' album back in 76 as it was sold at a promotional price of 69p the track that appears here is a version of the original and to my money superior, what a voice!!
I enjoy this album because it flows and it something to keep as an aid to remembering Joe Strummer, the songs are linked by passages of dialogue, a sprightly sounding Topper Headon is just great to hear at last, but most moving is Joe's passage about the ability and power of people to change things. His voice seems to crack with the emotion and intensity of what he is saying and I'm afraid to say I cried again!!
Free Music Review: The Clash were still alive
Hit: 4 Stars
When I first heard this album I thought it was Clash music I had never heard later to find out it was Joe Strummer who was a major portion of the Clash. Great CD and worth buying.
