Free Music Notes for Harps & Angels
Free Music Review: Only Jackson Browne Cares? Bono's Never Around!
Hit: 4 Stars
This album is full of strong feelings, and yet I continue to listen to it repeatedly. Good music can be thought provoking too. It's a love-hate kind of relationship.
Randy Newman's satire is equal opportunity. He makes fun of our past and present leaders in the US and other countries, of elitism, of music industry liberals out to save the world, of himself. That is what free speech is all about, and it makes America great, even if our "empire" appears to be in decline.
Other reviewers have been kind to point out that a couple of the songs are recycled from earlier works, and this does not detract from the album.
My interest in Randy Newman's music was recently renewed by hearing the song that is used during the opening credits of the TV show "Monk". I then found the album at Circuit City during their liquidation sale, which added a little irony to the purchase.
Harps & Angels Poster
Randy Newman's first studio album of all new material in nearly a decade is, by turns, hilarious, poignant and scathingly satirical. Harps and Angels often has an easy going Crescent City feel, with Newman on piano fronting a small combo and revealing, as Rolling Stone put it after the Carnegie Hall show, his serious love and study of the New Orleans piano tradition.Pop Music CDs
