Free Music Notes for New Connection
Free Music Review: Excellent, in a different way than his other excellent CD's
Hit: 5 Stars
I am a big Todd fan, but I did not expect to like "New Connection" as much as I do. Reading about 15 reviews here, and some comments on Snider fan websites, I thought I might be disappointed in this one. Each of Todd's five albums has a distinct approach. His first, "Daily Planet" gave us startlingly brilliant songwriting in four or five selections; then, "Step Right Up" had two or three near-brilliant songs; "Viva Satellite" was in-your-face rock, but lesser lyrics; next, "Happy to Be Here" was one voice, one guitar, personal confessions. "New Connection" probably does not have any single song which stands out as a masterpiece either of passion or of humor, but all 13 are high-quality. It is his most consistently enjoyable work. There are no "lows" here, and if the "highs" are not quite as strong as some of his older songs, it doesn't matter because the backing band here is superb. This one is less country-sounding than "Happy", less rock-sounding than "Viva" and less indie folkie sounding than "Planet", but its mixture of those elements is nearly flawless. Read the other reviewers to get details of particular songs that people love or hate...my advice is to buy this and make sure your first listen is with earphones, no interruptions for 50 minutes or so. Why Todd hasn't made a bigger splash in the industry is a mystery to me, but he has soul and brains and attitude and poetry and sensitivity and occasional crudity and the world should keep an eye on him.
