Free Music Notes for Kid in a Big World
Free Music Review: this is really so-so material
Hit: 2 Stars
It's really not a wonder to me why John Howard's records never "took off" or why the label dropped him. Both of these discs sound like an artist struggling (read: trying too hard) to make a hit pop record...kind of like when Elton lost it around Rock of The Westies - except his band had the chops to lift the sub-par songs somewhat. These are grand attempts at the piano-based, and occasionally camp, singer-songwriter (a la early Elton) genre but sadly this stuff is just plain mediochre. The lyrics are blase and at times quite honestly embarrassing (i.e. "some good good loving"??). I tried hard to like these records but the songs are just not quite there. If you want to hear an early seventies lost jewel then turn to Bill Fay, NOT John Howard.
