Counting Crows This Desert Life Rock Music CD Review
Author: Clyde Lee Dennis
The exceptionally talented Rock group Counting Crows have released their CD entitled This Desert Life. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Counting Crows fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of This Desert Life their artistic excellence is on full display as they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be their best work to date.
Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
These days it’s a very rare CD on which every single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one of those rare CDs.
If you’re a Counting Crows fan, or just a fan of Rock music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.
While this entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 3 - Amy Hit The Atmosphere, track 8 - I Wish I Was A Girl, and track 10 - St. Robinson In His Cadillac Dream
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Hanginaround. Great track!
