133.Deep Cuts/Burning for You by: The Strawbs November 11, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $21.89
One can see there is a consensus that the 2 cd's don't match up to the need to release Nomadness and Dave's solo album Two Weeks Last Summer (also a must for starving Miller Anderson fans) Deep Cuts contains some classic Strawbs material but Burning for You has only one or two acceptable songs which makes the package a little annoying...and yes boo hoo John Hawken is gone by this time. Kirby and Mealing create atmospheric texture rather than inventive fills. I saw the promo tour for the release of Nomadness just after Hawken had left. The keyboards were inoffensive but the energy and focus was somehow dissapated which carried over into these recordings

My only real disagreement with Lawrance Bernabo, is that I like Deep Cuts much better than Nomadness. Nomadness was an artistic and marketing disappointment that brought an end to the Strawbs A&M recording contract. Deep Cuts represented a return to form. The album isn't totally consistent -- the Strawbs rarely were -- but I Only Want My Love to Grow in You, the Soldiers Tale, Simple Visions and Beside the Rio Grande are superlative tracks which stand comparison to the best of the Strawbs earlier work. The other tracks are all pretty good. Overall, the album is actually more like Bursting at The Seams (or at least the Cousins tracks on it) than the intervening albums. The Soldiers Tale, for instance, has a thundering final instrumental section that reminds you of Down By the Sea. Read More

Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
I do feel that those two albums by the STRAWS, have been wrongly apreciated. Here is a band changin to adjust themselves to please a wider audience without losing their artistic values. The production is excelent, better than "NOWMADNESS" or even "GHOSTS" two great Strawbs albums that sound a little rushed. Dave Lambert sings the superb "Heartbreaker" and also on "I feel your loving comin on". Dave Cousins does the best vocals ever on "Simple Visions", "I feel your loving comin on" and particularly on "Cut Like a Diamond" a song he gave 100%. It is a shame that "Hearbreaker" or "Cut Like a Diamond" were not "hits". Do not jundge this pair by other Strawbs albums. This two go along "Dealines", another great great cd.

I have my hand up as one of those who thinks that by the time we got "Burning for You" that the Strawbs were not the same band that had put out "Hero & Heroine," "Ghosts" and "Nomadness." The reason for the decline seems obvious to me: the group had replaced keyboard player John Hawken with John Mealing and Robert Kirby in the studio, and neither of them was adding anything special to these songs (although, ironically, Mealing's title cut is arguably the best song on the album). Certainly nothing like what Hawken did on tracks such as "Hero & Heroine." Granted, I did not appreciate Hawken until he was gone, but in retrospect he clearly had an influence and as long as I am up this particular tree let me climb out on a limb and say that Hawken was better for the Strawbs then that first ...

The wizards at Rhino have put us once again in their debt for this re-release of the soundtrack to MGM's Kiss Me Kate. For anyone who loves the Broadway musical and its Hollywood incarnation, this recording is an essential part of any collection. Musical lovers have historically been very poorly served by the "original cast" and "soundtrack" recordings. What should have been glorious mementos of the theatrical (or cinematic) experience have often turned out to be savagely butchered and indifferently reproduced shadows of what could have been. With the extended playing time of CDs and the efforts of enthusiasts who (at last) recognise the treasures lying in the studio vaults, many musicals are being re-released in greatly improved sound and including previously unreleased orchestral underscoring ...
