THE MYNABIRDS -WHAT WE LOST IN THE FIRE WE GAIN IN THE FLOOD. (SADDLE CREEK) as reviewed by mr. esq. 70's contempo/soul & 60's pop. led by laura burhenn, the mynabirds revel in 60's&70's pop&soul. sometimes it gets country or bealtleesque. the sound is very authentic. some songs sound like they could be lost gems from the 60's&70's. burhenn is augmented by singer-songwriter/producer richard swift. and a ton of other noteable folks (check propaganda sheet, as there are too many to mention.) they recorded this in rural oregon. it's nice. familiar, but i'm just a sucker for her voice. you know...that kind of voice. (propaganda sheet is dead on for a change! =she does dead ring for chan marshall, neko case, dusty springfield.) FCC CLEAN. SUGGESTED TRACKS: 1, 2, 5, 7, 9 *1. sudden piano start. soft. vocals ala chan marshall. sweet, sweet stuff. very 70's contempo rock. it's great cheese. come: smell the cheese! *2. real catchy. big drum sound. big change of pace from 1st cut. poppy. like yeah yeah yeah's. 3. dusty springfield, sonny&cher. 4. opening sounds like dark side of the moon. darker. *5. BEST TRACK: velvety git. chan marshall vox=lovely. 6. nice, but gets too mor for me. *7. beatlesque open, pounding pop. 8. country time! happy&uplifty *9. sad begin to begin. waltz off into alterna pop/country. 10. 70's country. sappy, sappy cheese. i love her voice, but i want her to shut up now. | ||
