Listener Reviews & Comments
The title of my review is a quote from my son when he first heard it. It's hard for me not to give a Jan Akkerman CD 5 stars. He is simply the best guitarist alive and is so unappreciated from a mass audience prospective. He is so good technically that he is criticized for not being an emotional guitar player. To me, nothing can be further from the truth! He can play any style of music that he chooses. Now to my problem with this album. It just simply does not "feel" like an album from Jan Akkerman. Perhaps if he had produced another album in the last year or two, a move away from his normal style would be welcomed. But he has not produced an electric guitar based studio album in 5 to 6 years. The album is just not what I had in mind. But that's what makes Jan so unique. He dances to the beat of his own drummer. The album is generally very good. The band is very tight and the music could be played in many dance clubs in this country. The album make frequent use of drum synthesizers, which to me is a problem. Give me Ton Dijkman, Jan's drummer for many years, anyday. The songs that I enjoyed the most are In Between the Sheets, a cover of an Isley Brother's song, Slow Man and Urban Strings. If you are a Jan Akkerman fan, buy this CD, just be ready for something different.
