David Crosby if I Could Only Remember My Name Rock Music CD Review
Author: Clyde Lee Dennis
One word describes the CD If I Could Only Remember My Name from David Crosby… AWESOME!
It’s a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I’m more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with each song standing tall on it’s own.
One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you’ve got one of David Crosby’s most impressive releases ever.
If you’re even mildly into Rock music you’ll enjoy this album. Overall If I Could Only Remember My Name is an a great release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.
While the entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - Cowboy Movie, track 6 - Traction In The Rain, and track 9 - I’d Swear There Was Somebody Here
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Music Is Love. This is a great track!

Black Sabbath Technical Ecstasy Rock Music CD Review
Author: Clyde Lee Dennis
The exceptionally talented Rock group Black Sabbath have released their CD entitled Technical Ecstasy. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Black Sabbath fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Technical Ecstasy 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.
Unfortunately, it's not everyday that I get a CD for review that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Technical Ecstasy. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Rock isn’t your favorite style you still can’t help but appreciate the greatness of the musicians.
Overall Technical Ecstasy is outstanding from beginning to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Rock fan. Really sensational from beginning to end.
While the entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - You Won’t Change Me, track 6 - Rock N’ Roll Doctor, and track 8 - Dirty Women
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Back Street Kids. What a nice track!

Deep Purple Perfect Strangers Rock Music CD Review
Author: Clyde Lee Dennis
Perfect Strangers is the latest Rock CD released by the very group Deep Purple and they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. I’m confident Deep Purple fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one.
Perfect Strangers launches with an outstanding track, Knockin’ At Your Back Door, that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It really is a very nice track.
Perfect Strangers has a pleasantly varied, mix of 10 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly outstanding musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.
Overall Perfect Strangers is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Rock collection. Truly an outstanding Rock CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.
While the entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 2 - Under The Gun, track 6 - A Gypsy's Kiss, and track 10 - Son Of Alerik.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore […as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Knockin’ At Your Back Door. What a nice track!
