I hadn't heard any music by Gerry Rafferty in several years until recently
hearing a song he released in 1992, "I See Red". That song is what caused me
to decide, "Hey, I need to check out this new album because the man's still
making some great music after all these years". I'm really glad I did, too,
because I'm very impressed by these new songs. Rafferty's voice sounds
pretty much identical to the City To City days (he does take it to places
beyond that on a few tracks here, he shows some soul influence on "Sweet
Love") and his songwriting is as impressive as it ever was, if not more so.
"All Souls" is a great album opener and sounds like it would be a perfect
live show opener as well with the soulful background singers and rhythm.
"Keep It To Yourself" is just such a COOL tune, you have to hear it to
appreciate it. "Children of the Sun" (not the Billy Thorpe song) is a
terrific song that, once it gets in your head, you'll want to hear it again
and again. There's even a modern, hip-hoppish beat on a couple of tracks but
it works well with the arrangements of these fine songs - it never sounds
like he's trying to sell out for commerciality's sake, although one song
that doesn't work that well for me is "Who's House Is It Anyway?" - it's a
little too funky that sounds like Rafferty's stretching a bit too far out of
his element. Special note: at the end of the last track on the disc, there's
a long period of complete silence, like 3 or 4 minutes, but if you'll keep
listening, you'll hear a short and humorous "hidden" track. In closing, let
me say that I only expect to be more impressed by "Another World" with
repeated plays. And if you ever loved "Baker Street", "Right Down The Line"
and "Days Gone Down", you need to go out of your way or pay the import price
to buy "Another World". There's very few pop or rock artists that have
maintained the quality of their craft for decades - Gerry Rafferty is among
those few.

Leuk. Heb 'm destijds een paar keer in mijn handen gehad, maar steeds weer
laten staan. Nu pik ik 'm toch eventjes mee. Dank. :)

Ehm .. Sedert november vorig jaar is er alweer een v0.95 prebeta 4 op de
markt. En 't is overigens geen encoder, maar een echte ripperT. Geen grote
verschillen overigens, maar toch. Ik zou zo zeggen: doe er uw voordeel
mee. :)

Nou, dit ziet er ook lekker krom uit. Ik bedoel hier dus uiteraard de
verschillen tussen prebeta 3 en prebeta 4.

Jij hebt goed opgemerkt S'Fly dat ik me ook begeven heb op
het pad van Postassistant :-) Ik heb begrepen dat mijn info
niet helemaal klopt. Het woord *encoder* dient te worden
vervangen door *ripperT"*? Prima! Zijn er nog meer zaken die
verbeterT kunnen worden?

Groeten - Juul

dank u, klinkt goed

heb bijna alles van 'm, maar de laatste
jaren uit het oog verloren.

overigens zijn Keep it to yourself en You put something better
opnieuw opgenomen Stealers Wheel nummers, maar dat doet ie wel vaker.

ook prachtig :
Humblebums, zijn 1e groepje

groet,
