CD Reviews

Er, to clarify the other review....

"I got into Daniel Johnston through the documentary, "The Devil and Daniel Johnston" after it was recommended to me by a friend. If you haven't heard him before, I suggest you do the same, as it puts a lot of things into context, and it's a good way to here a lot of his music, easy and cheap. As the movie progressed, I found myself seeing a lot of Beck and Brighteyes in Johnston, which is to say there's a lot of Johnston in Beck and Brighteyes, since he came out a solid 10 years prior to either of them. His music is definitely not for everyone, as it's not at all polished. It IS, however, brutally honest and poetic. Definitely worth a listen if you like your lyrics to have a bit of substance."
I think I heard it in a movie once

"I think I heard it in a movie once that maybe the books we read choose us. This is the recollection I had when picking up the documentary 'The Devil and Daniel Johnston' from the local video store (no movies to select from that day) and perhaps it applies to video as well - I really didn't know what to expect. 'The Devil...' was my introduction to this unbelievably eloquent lyricist. The first 14 tracks were done in studio some time around 85 and was Daniels first professionally recorded album - these 14 tracks coupled with the next 15 that he recorded himself - listening to them made me feel like I had discovered a treasure chest of priceless feelings. In todays image and commercially driven music scene it's really difficult to think of anything that could compare with the creativity I heard on this album (CD).

It would be wrong to categorize my picks as "hot spots" because every thing on here is GREAT but I will share the ones that come to mind right now:

1 through 29.

Classic Daniel Johnston

"What an outstanding album by Mr. Johnston. The only problem lies within this release itself: Track 3, "Dead Dog Laughing..." has been erroneously omitted and it's place filled with another song.



Don't let this keep you from discovering this gold mine of musical originality.



Essential!"
