CD Reviews

George Harrison ROCKS!
David Vogler | New York, NY USA | 12/29/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album includes a track by the late George Harrison and it makes this CD worth the price alone. "Horse to the Water" was recorded by George on Ooctober 2nd 2001...just weeks before his tragic death. It's a great George song in the spirit of his work on his excellent "Cloud Nine" album. A wonderful gift. And his last recording in release."
Nice rhythm and blues.
Paul Burgin | 03/06/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

"With some brilliant songs by guest musicians George Harrison, Sam Brown, Stereophonics, Eric Bibb, Chris Difford, Mick Hucknall, Taj Mahal and Eric Clapton. As it says in the sleeve notes: 'For optimum results play as loudly as possible in comfortable environments.'
Just don't annoy the guests and neighbours."
A Superior Album
Harold Bolton | Mobile, AL USA | 02/08/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a wonderful mix of Rhythm & Blues songs by top artists and musicians, with a couple of odd (but good ones) thrown in. George Harrison's "Horse To The Water" is a great one and a wonderful final song for him (recorded aprox. two months before his death). The John Lennon and Bob Dylan influence is obvious, but it is definitely George's! Eric Clapton is also great with "What Would I Do Without You." The piano and guitar work on the album stands out as superior! I would recommend this CD to anyone with an appreciation for good, solid Rhythm & Blues music! Get it while it lasts & sit back and listen!"
