A lost masterpiece.......2006-05-11
Yet it sank without trace. I saw just one (pathetic) review of it, and it never made any critical lists or best albums of the year summaries that I ever saw. In fact, I have only ever seen two copies of it (one at a friend's, and one in the shop, which is the one I bought). Why? It is not as if T-Bone is an unknown quantity.
But let me put this album in perspective. There are folk songs on here that Bob Dylan wishes he could have written - and I am a big Dylan fan. Any fan of guitar based singer-songwriting simply needs to hear this album. And above all, this album has what far too many singer-songwriter albums do not - it is profoundly exciting. Not just bombastic histrionics on the guitar, but the excitement that comes from soulful engagement and revelation.
As the songs lift sequentially from one level to the next, and as the soul of the material is progressively revealed, the effect is totally mesmerising. I find the sequencing of songs to be as strong as any that I have ever heard. And I still play the songs regularly, in sequence, 14 years later. For in addition to being a set of great songs, this also a great production - minimalist, sometimes piercing, sometimes reflective, but never banal.
Maybe its time has finally come. T-Bone is about to release the follow-up, and we will see what he has been keeping under his hat for the last decade. And hopefully he will now take his rightful place in the pantheon of American singer-songwriters, as the soulful master that he is. But if you like edge, wit and sensitivity, informed by American folk and country idioms, do not overlook this one.
A stunning album.......2005-10-31
One of my all time favorites.......2005-06-28
Every couple of years I pull this back out and wonder why I haven't listened to it more often. Some of it really, really hits me where I live and it does so in an edgy, raw way that could have only come out of the USA.
a criminally overlooked masterpiece.......2004-07-29
The lyrics range from the sincere and poignant to the sardonic to the hilarious. The overall mood, though, is serious -- intensely serious. I suppose this probably has something to do with why it was not more popular. The title track, for instance, goes 180 degrees against U.S. trend of "getting tough on crime":
"There is no other I can blame, no other I can judge, no other I can cast in shame and require blood."
A great line from "Primitives" is: "The frightening thing is not dying -- the frightening thing is not living."
The "Humans from Earth" are:
"...out here in the universe buying real estate ... looking for a planet where the air is fresh and the water clear ... you have nothing at all to fear, I think we're going to like it here..."
"Tear This Building Down features the chorus from the old public domain song Sampson & Delilah over a Bo Diddley beat. A lying politician is indicted by the people and pleads pitifully "I can explain everything." The most chilling moment comes last. Over a pretty melody with mandolin and dobro the singer says:
"We killed them at the palace, Babe, and we murdered them in Rome. We knocked them all dead, Babe, then we brought it all back home. There are those who play for money, Babe, there are those who play for fame, there are still those who only play for the love of the game."
Quite a game to love.
T-Bone hasn't been playing the singer-songwriter game since CRIMINAL, focusing instead on producing other people's records. THE CRIMINAL UNDER MY OWN HAT is going to be hard to top, but I hope T-Bone will try. I hope he's working on a new album after all these years, after the smash success of his soundtrack album OH BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? The world is full of "broken structures and false idols," but "it's not too late."

Britten: A Ceremony of Carols, Rejoice in Lamb, Missa Brevis, Te Deum, Jubilate
Manufacturer: Polygram Records ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD ASIN: B0000041X0 Release Date: 1991-09-13 |
Amazon.com
There are one or two other fine recordings of Benjamin Britten's Ceremony of Carols, but this one is exceptional for its intimacy, a feature of this unique work that's often lost in performers' desire to make it big and exciting. There's plenty of bigness and excitement here, but it all comes from the beautifully controlled, warm-toned singing and the clarity of the vocal articulation. And there's lots of genuine energy, born of the inherent qualities of the music and the poetic texts. Likewise for the performance of the cantata Rejoice in the Lamb, a phenomenal setting for soloists, chorus, and organ of a poem by 18th-century religious poet Christopher Smart, who experienced bouts of madness and wrote this work in an asylum. The spiritual power of its words, especially as set by Britten, is undeniable, and the boys and men of St. John's know exactly how to elicit that power and convey it to us. --David Vernier

Album Description
(From the Album Notes by Verandah Porche)The morning after Valentine's, my red wagon, frost-shelled, is gritted with salt like a wintry heart. Most days, I peel out of the dooryard Instead, I slip in Under My Hat, scrape ice and let music unwind our lives.
"Music was my earliest memory," Patty says. "In the parlor, I made my mother put on Grieg's `The Hall of the Mountain King.' I did my own little sufi dance on the oriental rug until I dropped." By the time she and Scott became teen sweethearts, Patty had "a ton of songs." She lent dropped-out Scott her Martin guitar. "He would play all day, pick me up at school on my bicycle and I would ride home on the back."
They balanced like that, close and precarious, "did the folk thing and landed in Vermont's commune country, where we lived and improvised. By the early seventies, we were barnyard madonnas Music underscored our saga; Patty, Scott and their kid Melissa made the best of it. Born in '72, Missy sang before she spoke and danced to Coltrane every morning.
At UMass, Patty studied jazz with Reggie, Max, and Archie. At their handmade home, she studied the blues: hauled water from a frozen stream- after Scott blew South. "When I dropped him off at the train, Lester Young and Billy Holiday were playing `Lover Man' on the radio. At the time, I knew it meant something, and it wasn't good.
Music fused and confused their lives. They moved on to new mates and material.
At 4, Missy played kazoo with The Tin Band, By 12, she sang `Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?' with Patty's all-women rock group No Regrets, and `Iko-Iko' with The Prime Rib Band, where Scott played reeds.
Under My Hat is a jazz family album. The jewel case could be tooled leather. Inside, Patty and Melissa harmonize, croon, coax, chat and scat about love and survival. Sometimes you can't tell who's carrying the tune: Patty is satin, Melissa is smoke Around and between lyrics and cadences,
Scott holds court on assorted horns.
The Dysfunctional Family Jazz Band fleshes out the sound. New Orleans funk, Baltimore jazz, New York R & B, Irish fire, Hendrix meets Zollar, with the Carpenter-Shetler postnuclear trio. Together, they span distances and traditions, take turns and liberties, spar and groove in a show place like home.
