Free Music Review: Hey! Hey! We're the...well, actually, no.
Hit: 5 Stars
The rubric on the album cover reads "a book with a soundtrack". I haven't yet read the "book" (more a fancy CD insert revised by Nesmith for this release) but I have listened to this newly remixed reissue of Nesmith's 1974 "soundtrack" and marvelled. Seven segued tracks full of gorgeous melodies, shimmering riffs and beautiful washes of sound all overlain with Michael Nesmith's distinctive, reverb-laden vocal. But what to file under? Singer-songwriter? Country rock? Ambient? New age? Soft rock? Well, "The Prison" is all of these (and more) but - ultimately and intriguingly - is out there on its own. So, then, file under "impossible not to like".
The Prison Poster
2008 digitally remastered and remixed edition of Nesmith's groundbreaking album comes packaged with CD sized book, both housed in a slipcase. In 1974 Nesmith broke entirely new ground by issuing this 'book with a soundtrack'. The idea is simply to read the book whilst listening to the record, both elements complementing the other. Michael has revised the text of the story and for this release has also completely remixed and remastered the album from the original multi-track tapes. As a listening experience it is now quite different from the original 1974 album release. As a member of the first-ever manufactured group, Michael Nesmith needs little introduction. Aside from his ground-breaking projects in the field of music video and film production, he has enjoyed a solo career since he left the Monkees that has encompassed many styles of music, but has always been supported by his wonderful songwriting.
