Free Music Notes for I Have Always Been Here Before: The Roky Erickson AnthologyFree Music Review: Interested in Roky? Buy this one. Hit: 5 Stars
Good overview of his career and I think the tracks, which range from Dylan like to better than the Doors, are all good, plus Roky actually gets paid or this one.
Free Music Review: If you like Roky you'll love this Hit: 4 Stars
This is a great collection of the Roky Erickson's music. It covers all his eras - from the 13th Floor Elevators to the present day and includes all the classics. A fine, thoughtful and lovingly packaged collection.
Free Music Review: Less than spectacular Hit: 2 Stars
When do you actually sit and listen to 2 hours of the same artist, especially when those two hours include every piece of crap that artist ever pinched out? The middle ten of the 43 songs on here are excellent, edgy, and not completely slaving to any certain genre. But the old stuff is just proto-60s psychadelic rock (as if it could get more primitive). I congratulate him for inventing it, but it just doesn't hold up. There is also a bunch of knock-off Dylan on here. No good. If you want to hear the best stuff, I recommend "I Think of Demons," or if you have the dough, "The Evil One," which have the good songs.
