Free Music Notes for This Is Easy: The Best of Marshall Crenshaw
Free Music Review: It was ok but...
Hit: 3 Stars
I was a little disappointed with this CD. I enjoy Marshall Crenshaw's music but it seemed like the songs that they picked for this CD were a little on the sappy side. I expected better than what I got.Free Music Review: This is EZ lo-fi sigh
Hit: 2 Stars
Pop master, singer/songwriter, historian
all that
BUT! does that have to mean poorly recorded? Does the love of '50's rock 45s '60's punk '70's new wave mean fuzzy background and needle stuck grit? Let the song out! Let the vocals shout/whisper as should be.
Marshall Crenshaw is perhaps the finest singer/songerwrite with the worst production ever. WAIT! look at the producers; T-Bone Burnett Steve Lilywhite Alan Betrock etc.. are ya kidding me? This is as muddy as boot-steppin after a hurricaine in LA swamps;meaning both L.A. tar pits and Louisiana gator pits.
Live, Marshall jumps and beats back the recordings. Do that instead.
Free Music Review: overrated
Hit: 1 Stars
This album is touted as a 5 star compilation, and the jacket notes wonder why Marshall Crenshaw never achieved the great status he deserves. I wonder why he got the praise he did get. 3 words describe this album- bubble gum pop. Like bubble gum, after the first couple of songs you are left with a toothache and the flavor becomes dull. It is not surprising to me why Crenshaw never made it big outside of elevators. This is syrupy music that dulls the senses. I feel cheated and mislead by the other reviews listed here. Listen to samples before you buy this incredibly dull, sleep-inducing album- you may well want to save your money. I wish I had.
