Free Music Notes for Still Burning

Free Music Review: Very good record but a just a tiny bit same old stuff...
Hit: 4 Stars

My only gripe about this record is that it could have been super-great, instead it is just very good. Perhaps I got a little overfed by singers-songwriters music with rock undercurrents... who knows. Anyway, this album, taken separately is probably of the same strength as "Bring'em All In" so I might be just not feeling too well but then again maybe I onto something. "Questions" and "Rare Precious And Gone" are the highlights but a few others are really good numbers like "Everlasting Arms", "Sunrising' and "Love Anyway". Also worth every penny!

Still Burning Poster

All the promise of Mike Scott's former band, the Waterboys, is realized on his second solo release. With an open heart and an electric guitar, Scott creates his most personal and impassioned album to date. A disc that displays a complete lack of irony, Still Burning paints him as a natural mystic and spiritual seeker who worships rock & roll. Like fellow traveler Bob Dylan, Scott lords over a full-on rock sound with a timeless quality that proves that after all these years the fire's still burning. --Kevin Cole
When former Waterboy Mike Scott wrote "The Whole of the Moon" (it appears on the group's This is the Sea) he assured his place in songwriter heaven. If nothing on Still Burning achieves the grandeur of that masterpiece, there are still gems aplenty here. Scott remains a bastion of passion and honesty. His Dylan-esque delivery tempers near purple prose into songs so seamless that it is easy to miss how good they are. Too, the Arthurian, religious, and romantic imagery is grounded by the soulful grooves of session wizards Pino Palladino and Jim Keltner, and the raw guitar of Chris Bruce. In short, they rock. The Waterboys were never afraid of the grand gesture, and Scott retains that bravado. You want long orchestral codas ("Love Anyway")? Raging leads ripping through a tribute to Hendrix ("King Electric")? A device song like "Open" where each line begins with "Open to..." would be gimmicky in the hands of a lesser songwriter, but Scott's sense of harmony saves the day. -- Michael Ross
