5 out of 5 stars Why have you not bought this already?.......2001-05-21

This is by far one of the best albums I have heard in the past few years. So lush, and beautiful. It is the soundtrack of love, and I don't mean like "gettin' it on", I mean that sickly heart love. So wonderfully emotional. To give you an idea, I bought it on vinyl some years back, and recently added it to my CD collection as well. Do the world a favor, and buy it now.

5 out of 5 stars Ambient heaven.......2001-02-04

I was entering a clothing store on Meiji-Dori in Japan last week, when I heard the tunes from the CD for the first time. Recently I discovered ambient, so Emmidiately my attention was drawn towards the music coming from the loudspeakers, rather that the clothes hanging on the the hangers in the shop. I asked a girl, working there waht music they were playing, and she showed me the cover. I wrote the title down and searched for the CD with no luck..... In a few days time I will recieve it, and I can't wait! Linse

5 out of 5 stars The best and most interesting album of the last decade.......2000-07-10

Genres are multiplying thick and fast at the moment, and have been for a while. But very few break much if any new ground; most hit a dead end (speed garage), or just carry on doing the same thing without any innovation beyond the original concept (drum'n'bass). So it is a treat to discover an album which is both original and nigh-on perfect in Mercy Street: not really like very much else, but if you must, a fusion of classical, prog rock, chillout and techno (which should say very little to you, in truth, and does A Reminiscent Drive no justice). Themes echo all the way through the record, all recalling each other but each one different and memorable; each track has its own progression and form: some, like 'There's Always Somebody...' reaching a climactic single bar after a couple of minutes; others, like 'Relief', always moving but never peaking. None of them sound formulaic, most of them inspire a kind of awe (how does he make such odd noises sound so good? Could anyone else?), all but two or three songs are masterpieces, and the album as a whole is as coherent a piece of work as anything I have heard. Even the album sleeve is gorgeous. Matched only by A Reminiscent Drive's EP, 'Given', this is simply the best thing I've ever come across. As a friend of mine said, on hearing it for the first time, children should be made to listen to this. Buy it now.

(although be warned: lyrics are sparse, singalonga melodies sparser and verse-chorus-verse-chorus rock or buildy-uppy beats altogether absent)

5 out of 5 stars a classic.......2000-05-08

Think beach in Australia at 6 o'clock in the morning, you walk , the sun is coming and the music is here in your ears...this is the one man! it is sublime. This CD is for Trip hop lover, full of emotions and romance.

3 out of 5 stars RapRetarded More Like.......2006-01-13

LOL Just read that kids review below. I estimate he is about 14 years old at the most. That comment was the most ignorant and stupid comment I have read on this site. Classic stuff. As said before DO SOME HOMEWORK KID!!! How can you review an album without even hearing it? or knowing who the artist is? Also slagging off Snoop over Eminem is just showing your ignorance to Hip Hop in general.

Admittedly this is not RBX's best work, but it is also not bad either. worth getting to fill your collection with and if there is nothing else around, but again as said above there are far better albums out there, and If you are new to RBX the without question seek out The Chronic and Snoops Doggystyle. Apart from being two of the best Gangsta albums ever produced the collaborations from the guest artists such as RBX and Daz make them all the more enjoyable.

4 out of 5 stars Good Album.......2005-04-29

This is a decent album,not your typical commercial/no creativity garbage..go get it.

And i'm real suprised by the stupidity of some kids who listen to Hip Hop,RapObsessed,why review this album when you have only heard one verse of RBX's?

Thats gotta be the dumbest $%^&* i seen all day!

lol

3 out of 5 stars RBX is too hard for anyone not serious about rap.......2005-02-08

What is this KID talking about "I've only heard him on 'Remember Me'"? How the crap can you base a review on a single song?! How are you going to put your name as RapObsessed and not even know who this is? If you're obsessed with rap, or more so Eminem it seems like, you must have listened to Dr. Dre's 'The Chronic' at one point in your life or another. If not, get out of here, do some research, and come back when you have some education. RBX has been on The Chronic, Doggystyle, collaborated with Daz, Kurupt, Warren G, Nate Dogg, Tupac, MC Ren, and the list goes on. He even wrote 1/3 of the songs for Dre on The Chronic. Don't judge by one song on an album he shouldn't have even cared about being on. Cop The Chronic, listen to tracks 4, 9, 11, 12 (where he drops one of the best verses on the album), and 14. Better yet, cop The RBX Files and tell me that he sucks. Until then, waste your time on Eminem who I'll admit is amazing on the mic, but is a waste of memory bank and oxygen when it comes to giving a SH*T about any kind of social issue unless it affects him directly.

1 out of 5 stars Ugg........2004-08-29

I havn't heard this album, so I'll do a review of RBX in general.
I've heard him only on the Marshall Mather's LP' "Remember Me", and if his performance on that track is reflective of his other work, then there is no reason for anyone to buy this. Half of his verse on that track don't even rhyme!! Plus, his voice is more like talking in a possessed way then rapping. Here, I'll paste his verse from "Remember Me.":

For this one it's the X, you retarded?
Cause I grab the mic and get DOWN, like Syndrome
Hide and roam into the masses, without boundaries
which qualifies me for the term "universal"
Without no rehearsal, I leak words that's controversial
Like I'm not, the one you wanna contest, see
cause I'll hit yo' a** like the train did that b*tch
that got "Banned From TV" -- heavyweight hitter
Hit you watch your whole head split up
Loco-is-the-motion, we comin through
Hollow tips is the lead, the .45 threw


Oh my god, that is TERRIBLE!! There were like two lines that rhymed in the whole thing!! What was Dre thinking putting him on Chronic? Wasn't it bad enough with Snoop Dogg?

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2003-10-18

This is the real RBX style. I have loved and listened to RBX through the years and this album makes me proud that he is still releasing great music. I can't wait until his next release. If you love original "Cronic" CD this one will NOT dissapoint you.

              Album Description

              The long awaited full length CD from Bay Area singer/songwriter Greg Lamboy offers a treasure of catchy, inspired acoustic pop marked by Lamboy's powerful tenor and accomplished guitar technique. Featuring some of the Bay Area's finest talent, Every Drop of the Good is independent AAA rock at its most ideal. Lamboy's soulful vocal delivery conveys the passion behind his socially and emotionally conscious lyrics while his music, awash in melodic and rhythmic hooks, alternately soothes and provokes the listener to a deeper level of understanding.

              5 out of 5 stars Singer / songwriter with a heart AND a voice.......2004-09-03

              I became aware of Greg because he was putting on a concert to benefit a local veteran-focused homeless shelter for which I do some work. I loved the samples on his web site and bought his album. What a treat! Beautiful (understandable) voice, wonderful lyrics, great melodies, nice band. I know he's working on a second album now and I'll be right in line to buy it as soon as it's available. Every Drop of the Good is a great mix of love songs (happy and sad), activist oriented songs, and just plain fun sing-along songs.

              5 out of 5 stars He Can Do It All!.......2002-08-27

              It's wonderful to find an artist who can sing, write songs and play an instrument--all well! Greg's lyrics are particularly inspirational and make anyone who listens, think. He obviously hopes to do a little good and encourages us all to find ways to do the same. Almost anyone who listens can also find some lyrics to relate to personally--I especially love "Every Time," "Another Day in This Life," and Greg's tribute to 9/11. Thanks, Greg--keep em' coming!
