Customer reviews of Time the Conqueror

Customer Rating:  
Summary: Excellent Music
Comment: Yes, there's JB's politics....so what? He's entitled to his views and entitled to express them. That's the power of art. Overall, the CD is full of thoughtful lyrics and well-crafted music. I am very impressed.

Summary: Jackson brown
Comment: If you liked him before then you are in for a pleasant surprise. You must purchase this music and take the time to sit down and listen to it. Well done.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Jackson still has IT!
Comment: With the first listen, I really liked this album. The second and third time around, it just kept getting better. Insightful and thought provoking, but still musical, I really think this is one of the standout albums of 2008. "Where were you?" is so powerful and poignant. Going to Cuba, is a toe tapping mini-vacation. Each song stands on its own and together, they comprise a powerful and beautiful offering from one of the great poets of our time. You will not be disappointed, unless of course, you are John McCain.

Summary: Too Much Predictable Rhetoric, Not Enough Wry Observations
Comment: Unlike Dan D., I wouldn't regret Jackson Browne continuing to make political observations, if those observations weren't so trite. For good topical protest songs, you can turn to anyone from Flobots to David Rovics. But Browne's politics haven't changed in observational style from the days of "Lives in the Balance" - i.e., utterly predictable and a little belated.
I looked forward to a new album, and I was going to cut Jackson a lot of slack for being nostalgic. But what I found frustrating was that there was little of the eclectic personal observations we used to get all the time in the early days, and even in later work like "In the Shape of a Heart." Instead, the personal songs like "Live Nude Cabaret" were a little bit odd, like Donald Fagen in post-"Gaucho" Steely Dan days - like he's the slightly weird aging Uncle Al lecher or something.
I will say that Jackson's voice has not lost any of its power with age, and the arrangements are really nice. But every song on the album seemed predictable: one for Cuba, one for Katrina, etc. Yaaaawwwwwn. Turning 60 or whatever doesn't cut it as an excuse - look at Neil Young, he's always being original.

Summary: Wrong again
Comment: Yes. Wrong again,you people who say there are no hummable tunes here. The CD is loaded with beautiful hooks,one right after another. As a matter of fact, I'm humming one right now. Do do, do do, do do, Given that Heaven away.
It's a shame a five star album turns into 3.5 because people don't share the same worldview as Jackson. Thing is, he's always been a left leaning idealist,I think. Never wavered in all those years. You, on the other hand,have. Bought the SUV and voted for W.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Browne's first studio release in six years. Recorded with his longtime band Kevin McCormick, Mark Goldenberg, Mauricio "Fritz" Lewak, and Jeff Young, along with two additional members, Chavonne Morris and Alethea Mills. Look for them on tour this fall.
