Free Music Notes for The Tigers Have SpokenFree Music Review: Not enough stars to rate Neko Case! Hit: 5 StarsStellar album (every pun intended). If you have to beg, borrow or steal to get to a live Neko Case show, do it. Steal the neighbor kid's lunch money if you have to. One of the best live performances I've ever seen, hands down.
Sometimes, the fates get together and slam dunk someone with a voice like Neko and throw in some great song writing skill. And, if all that wasn't enough, she just so happens to be performing with some great musicians.
This album is one of my favorites but I have to say, you can't go wrong with Fox Confessor or Blacklisted either. On this album, Hex simply stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it. A Patsy Cline strong, velvet voice; an enveloping wall-of-sound vibe. Drown in it. This is what it sounds like when your ears die and go to heaven.
Free Music Review: great live set Hit: 4 Starsthis is a great live concert from neko case. every song is good. the only improvement would be to make it a little longer. the sound is good.
Free Music Review: Her studio work is good, live she's even better... Hit: 4 StarsAs gripping and immediate as her last studio CD was (Fox Confessor) I have to say that this is an artist best enjoyed live. And you just can't say that about most artists (My Morning Jacket, White Stripes). As a consequence this CD really satisfies as it showcases her vocals in a live setting and conveys the excitement of the audience she's taken along for the ride. The only gripe is that this CD runs a bit on the short side.
Free Music Review: Love it! Hit: 5 StarsOkay, so the last track is a little weird, maybe I just don't get it. But this really is a phenomenal CD by a woman to whom the Britney's, Christina's and other blonde bimbos could learn a thing or two. Suggest to anyone that's a fan of the Blues, Gospel, or just good rockin' music. Enjoy!
Free Music Review: Neko wuvs tigers - awwwwww Hit: 4 StarsThere are a few songs here that absolutely make me hair stand on end, it's unbelievable. The first track is true perfection and evocative of a great, epic western soundtrack. Then there is the fantastic old time country gospel of This Little Light which is electrifying. As far as sound quality: if anything, it adds to the "classic" feel found in vintage live recordings of the 70's. It's good AS IS. What is it about tigers that resonates with Neko? I envision a day when she performs these songs on stage with live tigers going berzerk in cages on each side of the stage. She could walk up to one of them, and the tiger would flash his paw through the bars, angry that he/she is being subjected to the loud noise, the audience. She could even bring a stool and sit next to the caged feline and serenade it.
