Free Music Notes for Eve

Free Music Review: Eve
Hit: 3 Stars

Eve was the Project's fourth studio album. It went to #13 on the album charts & there weren't any charting singles released from the album. Eve has always been a wee bit of a disappointment to me. There's only one weak song on the album but there aren't any outstanding songs on it, either.

The album opens in typical fashion with the instrumental "Lucifer". Unlike many of the Project's previous albums where the opening instrumental jumped out & made you take notice, "Lucifer" doesn't come close to doing this. The next song, "You Lie Down with Dogs", is one of the two best songs on the album. It has a definite pop feel to it with a good groove. "I'd Rather Be a Man" is an average song that opens with programmed synths but never delivers. "You Won't Be There" is a slow tempo song, Bairnson does provide a melodic lead solo. "Winding Me Up" is a slight improvement but still nothing more than average. It does a catchy chorus that'll have you singing along but it's, oh, so commercial. "Damned If I Do" falls into the pop category also but doesn't go anywhere. It does have a driving set of brass & some strings which should prove interesting on the remastered version coming out later in the year. Bairnson provides us with a solid lead solo. "Don't Hold Back" follows & is way into the commercial end of things; for the first time we get a female doing a lead vocal on a Project track. By this time I'm disappointed in the album with so many average tracks. What follows is the other good song on the album, "Secret Garden" which should've been the opening number. David Paton provides an interesting bass riff in this instrumental. "If I Could Change Your Mind" is the album's closing track. This one also has a female lead vocal but the song is the weakest of the album. Knowing what the album's theme is, this song then is the female's reply to that theme.

Eve hasn't ever been my favorite Project album nor did it have the best recording dynamics. I look forward to the newly remastered version being released.
