Customer reviews of Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings
|
Customer Rating:  
Summary: few plays but connected well
Comment: It took me a few plays to connect to the music. I am an enthusiast and can really understand lyrics. I purchased their '93 CD August and Everything After. They are a talented group.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not August, but surely everything after
Comment: August and everything After is the disc that sold Counting Crows to us. It is the album that made us believers. Adam and the guys spent their whole lives up to that point, making that album. Their other albums have been made in far less time. The ideas are not lifelong. So give them a break on that. If you want another AAEA buy AAEA or wait another thirty years. Rememeber, these guys are artists it doesn't come that easily.
All that aside, Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings is a great album. If it was a debut, it would be a brilliant debut. However it is from a band that we have already declared as brilliant. SNASM is as good if not a better record than AAEA. Forget the nostalgia and just listen to the subject matter, lyrics, clarity of expression and eloquence of delivery of "Anyone but you","When I dream of Michaelangelo" and "On Almost Any Sunday Morning". "You can't count on me" is classic post-self-denial material(maybe Rolling Stones influence?). "Come around" speaks of a band conscious of its own mortality and immortality. Take a good listen. This one is a keeper.
The Truth About Myra

Summary: This is Art
Comment: Most of the music I listen to is from the 60's and 70's so I still consider The Counting Crows to be a "New Band".They are one of the few Bands around today who have not compromised their music as an art form.They get a lot of crap for not making another "August and Everything After".Bob Dylan was knocked to for not making another "Highway 61 Revisited" as well.I believe Adam Duritz has, and still continues to improve as both a songwriter and performer.Just because an artist goes in a diffirent direction does not automatically mean they are less relevant then they were before.I think this album is very strong and more importantly a very honest expression of "The Counting Crows" as a group.It does not sound forced.It sounds like music made by a group who will continue to work at what they do with no end in sight.The Crows/ Adam Duritz seems to be carrying "The Torch" of what true American Music is all about.Quite a feat for a modern band in popular music.I hope they continue doing what they do,whatever that may be.

Summary: Counting Crows
Comment: I have every one of their CD's because I really like this group. However this CD didn't do anything for me.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Disappointed
Comment: I hate admitting this because I've been a Counting Crows fan since... well since "August...". But this CD is so bland I couldn't get into it at all.
I gave it chance after chance... listen after listen. None of the songs ever stuck in my head. I found the music to be old hat, but not in a classic, good way. And the lyrics were terribly weak. They've lost all feeling. One of the things that has always made CC a good band was that the lyrics were usually raw and filled with emotion. This CD sounds like they didn't put anything of themselves in it. Its almost as if they're just performing songs that other people wrote as parodies of counting crows songs.
This is the first Counting Crows Cd i took out of my rotation before I knew the order of songs by memory. It just hurt every time i tried to listen.
as they say... All good things...
