Free Music Notes for Jesus of Cool
Free Music Review: Pure and Solid Gold
Hit: 5 Stars
This collection of Nick's hits brings back fond memories of those first Nick Lowe albums from back in the day. I remember buying Jesus of Cool from, imagine that, a combination head shop and record shop! If you like the pop sound of the 70s/80s you can't go wrong with this collection of Nick Lowes. A fantastic songwriter and performer. If you haven't encountered Nick before I can think of no better collection to start with than this. Buy it now!!!!Free Music Review: British Punk Reinvasion
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the original UK version, released in US as "Pure Pop for Now People," with a few differences in songs. It also has quite a bit in bonus recordings. The old title is appropriate, due to Lowe's influence on the punk scene-this recording feels light and happy even when dealing with the worst humans can offer. I much prefer its feel to the sad, always-down music that followed the punk era. We need more Rock messiahs like Nick Lowe.Free Music Review: All the Essential Lowe, Great Remastering
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great package, with not only the "Jesus of Cool" tracks, but the tracks on the US version, "Pure Pop for Now People." It also includes key singles from the period and the "Bowi" EP. Great songs, all, and the sound quality is an upgrade from previous releases of the same material. Nick has remained a good songwriter, but I don't think he ever topped his achievements from this period of his career.Free Music Review: At all time classic
Hit: 5 Stars
I prefer the American title "Pure Pop for Now People", and the original running order, especially opening with "So it Goes," however, this version of "Jesus of Cool" comes with bonus tracks! I already own most of those tracks on old import 45's, but it's great to get them digital. If you don't own this album, then you are officially not a "Now Person". Get it! (Dave Edmunds reference).Free Music Review: Great clever fun
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this to replace a cassette that I had made from the original vinyl LP and from vinyl 45s. Often collections of this type have a lot of filler that would best be left off. Not so here. If anything, I wish they had added one or two more B-sides from that period. This is great album packaged up to make a great collection. The result is a very enjoyable listen.
