Awesome Rock.......2007-07-13

I heard Rocco Deluca & the Burden for the first time at a John Mayer Performance at the Hollywood Bowl. I was in heaven. They have a great sound: classic rock and roll!
I bought the album and have not been disappointed!

Refreshingly original..........2007-06-26

I've been a Jude Cole fan for ages and have praccitally all his work in my admittedly oversized music collection...when I heard Jude had started his own label I was particularly interested in what kind of stuff we'd be seeing. Well, Lifehouse's stuff has had the Jude Cole treatment and I can't complain. That's why when I heard Rocco DeLuca was on Jude's label, I knew I had to check it out. This is some excellent stuff that needs your attention...very stripped down, very straight forward, very nicely done. I wish Jude would come out with another CD but to hear his touch on stuff like this is just as good. "Colorful"..."Bus Ride"...Mystified"...
all this stuff makes me want to hear more. I hope these guys are around for a LONG time to come. But don't take my word for it...go ahead and buy this one!

Much Ado About Very Little.......2007-06-25

Rocco Deluca combines the most memorable characteristics of three legendary talents:

George Michael's beard.

Fonzie's jacket.

Barney the dinosaur's lyric sheet.

This Is One Great CD - Do yourself a big favor and buy it now.......2007-06-03

Wow, this is ONE GREAT CD. Do yourself a big favor and BUY IT NOW. You can thank me later after you've played it 20-times in a row and are looking forward to the 21st. Original song writing, vocals, musicianship, production (cheers to Jude Cole), song arrangement and red hot single called Colorful (check out the video on VH1)!

All of the reviews I've seen try to compare this band it to other artists and bands. I remember when the Cars released their first CD and seeing a reviewer compare them to Lead Zeppelin and wondering what planet (other than earth) he was from. The same goes with this band. How about "this is a great band with an original sound"!

The flow of the CD makes you feel like you just sat through a concert. There are classic rockers like Colorful, How Fast, Gravity and Soul mixed with some beautiful acoustic numbers like Bus Ride and Mystified. The majority of the CD is rock. There are a couple of songs that have a blues feel like Swing Low.

Rocco Deluca's dad was a touring guitar player with some of the best blues artists in the business. Rocco followed in his footsteps backing up greats like Taj Mahal, John Mayall, John Lee Hooker and Johnny Cash. Needless to say he's been groomed his whole life to do this and it all comes together on this CD.

Complete from Start to Finish.......2007-05-10

Rarely is there an album I listen to in its entriety without skipping over lesser tracks. This slickly produced CD is an exception. Just about every track pops with an infectious energy that lifts your spirit. My faviorite tracks on the record are the first single "Colorful", "Swing Low", and "Soul". Believe the hype surrounding this band because they will eventually be huge.

Diana Krall, here with her first GRP album, expands on the delights that populated her 1992 debut, Stepping Out. Again, her talents are simply remarkable: she sings with feeling, emotion, and nuance--she invests a lyric with believability--and plays marvelous piano, no matter the tempo. The program pleases on so many levels: slip the disc into the player, hit any track at random, and you'll be moved. Take the oh-so-slow, heartfelt groover "Squeeze Me," on which her alto is both breathy and demonstrative and her accompaniments are sly, and which features a winsome solo by bass maestro Ray Brown. On another gut-wrenching crawler, "All Night Long," Krall tears you up with her emotive, intimate vocal, interspersing her singing with telling, shimmering piano notes, then delivering a solo full of wry confidences. The succulent title track is a deliciously slow bossa where Krall's vocal is partly whispered, as if sung in your ear. More upbeat is the finger-popping "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby," where the artist sings with grit and life then solos with an economical drive. Tenor saxophone giant Stanley Turrentine adds a trademark saucy improvisation. "I Love Being Here with You" is a romping shuffle where Krall's voice hits some notes on the head and stretches others like pulled taffy. "Broadway" is another vibrant outing that includes a singing, fat-noted solo from bassist Christian McBride and Lewis Nash's deft brush work. Aces all around. --Zan Stewart

Customer Reviews:

Cocktail pianist at best and no jazz vocalist.......2007-04-01

Because Ms Krall is accompanied by some outstanding musicians of the jazz genre I presume she is concerned to be recognized as a jazz singer and a jazz pianist. If this is so then I have to say her nasal twang, indifferent rhythmic sense, and poor understanding of the lyric makes her an indifferent jazz interpreter of the great american song book. To take "I've Got the World On A String" as an example, it may as well be sung by a computer. Embarrassing. As for her piano playing then she is an accomplished cocktail pianist but to place her in the jazz pantheon would be a considerable leap of pure faith.
On the slower tunes, she is more successful in a cutesy way as on "Squeeze Me". But I would think she must be the most overrated "jazz" artist of the last decade.

She's the best!.......2007-01-09

Diana Krall is the best. There has never been a sexier, sultrier voice. This CD does not disappoint. She continues to get better and better. I'd have given it 5 stars, but Live in Paris is her all time best.

WOW !!!! Diana Krall made me do something unusual !!!.......2003-12-07

What can I say? Diana is making me buy an entire album and this is the first time that I am buying albums as Christmas gifts. I am giving her album and Micheal Duble's self titled album to my closest friends. I send gifts that are high quality and thoughful gifts that I would personally enjoy (Just in case they are sent back). Both albums are kick ***, making this a banner year. All this and QE on Bravo TV! Color me happy!

A real jazz album.......2003-08-24

Whatever you may think of Diana's more recent crossover music (which I think is brilliant), this early album demonstrates clearly that her music is rooted in jazz. There is no crossover here - it's pure jazz. Diana sings and plays piano, backed by a small but select band comprising a bass player (sometimes Ray Brown, sometimes Christian McBride), a drummer (Lewis Nash) and a ten saxophonist (Stanley Turrentine).

Like so many of Diana's albums, this one relies heavily on songs from the first half of the twentieth century, beginning with Louis Jordan's classic Is you or is you ain't my baby. Other classic songs featured here include Squeeze me (Duke Ellington) and two songs associated with Peggy Lee (I love being here with you, The folks who live on the hill). The only original is the closing bluesy instrumental, CRS craft.

This is a fine album that will particularly appeal to jazz aficionados. It may even expand the market as fans of Diana's later music learn to appreciate jazz. But some of those fans may not like this - if in doubt, listen to some of it before buying.

Stanley and Diana.......2003-04-18

Oddly, little mention in the customer reviews of Stanley Turrentine's presence on the recording. It's what makes this album different from --and hotter than --any other of Ms. Krall's fabulous work. Example: No doubt about it --Diana and the band supremely cook on the song "I Love Being Here with You" from her latest Paris live recordings. But on this version, Turrentine's tenor sax steers the tune up the onramp and into overdrive. He's jazzy enough to be interesting but stays sane and faithful to the melody. Which matches Diana's musical style, I think. But whether it's Stanley Turrentine, Ray Brown, Christian McBride, Jeff Hamilton, John Clayton, etc., it's testament to Ms. Krall's ability to attract and lead such superb associates. And at such a tender age, though she was no overnight sensation at this point, having played professionally since her teens.

Still, one of my favorites cuts on the CD is saxless: the dreamy "All Night Long." Diana's lilting piano solo and sultriness interpret the plaintive mood of the piece perfectly.

Her three subsequent recordings are maybe a little more softened and refined. That's not at all a bad thing, but I tend to listen more to this CD, its predecessor, "Stepping Out" or the two recent killers "The Look of Love" and "Live in Paris." "Only Trust Your Heart," among all her recordings, is Diana at her most muscular, both vocally and instrumentally. Even on the slower pieces she reaches decibel levels more likely to be heard only in her concerts. Maybe it's Turrentine's influence. In any case, it's just nice to hear Diana prove that she can belt `em out.

should have been done later.......2007-03-22

i bought "Big Calm" before this album and was blown away. morcheeba has mastered the trip-pop sound on that album. my expectations for this album were fairly high considering the fact that i heard that it was more straight forward trip-hop. i've listened to this album several times and while it does have strong songwriting, i don't think morcheeba are good enough of a band to go this experimental on their first album. the comparisons musically and structurally on this compared to "Big Calm" are so obvious that in some instances i felt the order of release should have been reversed. there aren't enough singles and catchiness in this one to catch the attention of the listener, especially for a first time out band. i do appreciate the adventurous nature of it, but it just came out a bit to early.

Classic Trip Hop.......2006-04-19

Kind of hard to believe that it's been nearly a decade since Trip Hop was the next big thing. With a few exceptions, one of which is Morcheeba, much of the so called Trip Hop music now sounds dated, and hasn't aged very well.

Morcheeba came at it from a slightly different angle. As an example, I doubt you'll hear any other bands of the genre cover Neil Young, as Morcheeba did. They also got the attention of David Byrne, who in turn introduced them to Jim White. The Godfrey brothers would work, with great effect, on Byrne's "Feelings" and later Jim White's "No such place".

Among their peers, about the only one that comes to mind that still sounds pretty good is Portishead's "Dummy". "Who can you trust" and "Big calm" have, for the most part, stood the test of time, and sound great pretty much from beginning to end. By the time they released "Fragments of Freedom", the band was in the process of fragmenting, and the later releases just don't hold up.

Take a close look at the cover photo. If you know what it is, you'll instantly understand what inspired this album and the optimum state of mind in which to listen to it.

A Smokers Album.......2006-01-09

This album epitomizes "CHILL OUT" music, if you love great lyrics, female vocals, all-round great music and of course your a smoker of the greener persuasion then this is the album just for you. Buy it, and you'll love it!!

Johnny Jargon!

Trust in Morcheeba.......2005-04-13

I first discovered Morcheeba through "Big Calm", and after being completely blown away I had to collect their entire catalogue. This was my second Morcheeba album, and my favorite by far. "Trigger Hippie" and "Tape Loop" alone are worth the purchase price, but every track is top-notch. Skye Edwards' vocals slip into your subconscious and instantly melt away the stress of the day. Get yourself a couple bottles of wine, call up some good friends, throw this disc in the player and you're bound to have a good time.

Excellent chill music.......2004-12-09

This is the perfect cd to listen to while relaxing with some candles and incense burning. However, it's far from sedate. The sometimes trippy, other times upbeat music, paired with the awesome vocals and lyrics are the perfect fit for a chill evening or background music for many activities...
If you're sick of the radio and talentless pop, this is a great alternative. Music for those who actually listen. Check out the sample tracks, you'll like what you hear.

Costello At His Best..........2004-12-24

'Trust' is, without a doubt, Elvis Costello's most original record; it's also his strongest. One day the critics will wise up, until then, it's our little secret. Buy this.

Essential EC.......2004-01-05

As some of the other reviewers have pointed out, its incredibly hard to really pick a "best" EC album between '77 and '86 simply because the man just made some remarkably amazing music. Whats interesting to note about this record is that it followed "Taking Liberties"/"Ten Bloody Marys.." (a collection of b-sides) and "Get Happy!" (an homage to soul). So is this really Costello's fourth album? Theres no denying, its musically closer to the first three releases and by god its really damn good. Theres a few tracks I'm not so hot on like "Shot with his own gun" but the rest is gold. The lyrical maturity shows on tracks like "You'll never be a man", and "Sad about girls" is one the best songs ever left off an album. Listen to this album, weep with joy.

Elvis Becomes a Singer.......2003-12-18

"Trust" broke form with earlier Elvis Costello albums in a major way. For the first time, Elvis shifted focus from the brute force of his music to presenting himself more as a vocalist. Where he would often just bellow the songs out (think "Goon Squad" or most of "Get Happy"), on "Trust" he began to explore his range. A fair amount of this might have to do with the liner notes continual references to EC's increased drinking problems, but probably more to his budding relationship with Chris Difford of Squeeze. That friendship led to one of the album's highlights when Difford's bandmate Glenn Tillbrook joined EC on "From A Whisper To A Scream." (Squeeze got the favor returned when Elvis co-produced "East Side Story" and added his voice to the classic "Tempted.")

Elvis was also in the middle of something of a writer's draught, which meant that he polished up a few older tunes from his pre-Aim days, and left a couple of songs sounding less than stellar. "You'll Never Be A Man," "Luxembourg" and "Big Sister's Clothes" were the first times I'd ever felt that the songs on an Elvis album were filler (hence the 4 star rating). Not like it mattered, because along with "New Lace Sleeves" and "From A Whisper to a Scream," there was the magnificent "Shot With His Own Gun," a stunning piano ballad. That particular song upped the ante for Elvis the writer, as well as being perfectly realized as a vocalist. (It could also be viewed as a precursor to "Imperial Bedroom's" "The Long Honeymoon" and "Almost Blue.")

Like many of Elvis' albums, "Trust" has aged delightfully. While many may have dismissed it upon release as EC mellowing out, it was actually the maturation point where Elvis the "Angry Young Man" became the classic tunesmith that would carry into the soon to come "Imperial Bedroom."

Trusting his instincts.......2003-10-19

Very few have sung the praises of Trust and for three simple reason; it had no breakthrough hit singles, lacked the sparkle of the new (like his first two releases)and lacked the exposure of his first three albums. It's also quite probably his best album. There's a mixture of the old and the new here; some of the material dates from before My Aim Is True so it echoes some of his earlier material in theme and approach while the newer stuff hints at a lyrical depth only fleetingly glimpsed on his best albums.

At the time of its release Trust was seen as something of a comedown; it was merely another Elvis Costello album with Nick Lowe at the helm. It lacked the sparkle of Costello's brighter, poppier melodies but the music had a depth and sophistication that clearly showed that EC was still a work in progress. From the opening number Clubland with its brilliant piano flourishes courtesy of Steve Nieve to the brutal From a Whisper to a Scream with Glenn Tilbrook's warm tenor dueting with EC, Trust provided a glimpse into EC's current state of mind. It would be superceded by the brilliant Pet Sounds/Pepper homage Imperial Bedroom but never surpassed. Yes, EC would continue to develop as a songwriter with the next album but this was EC distilled down to his very essence; quirky, powerful, catchy songwriting with the bite of a doberman.

This newely remastered expanded edition has extensive liner notes, lyrics and some gems that didn't appear on the generous Rykodisc version released nearly a decade ago. The sound quality is spiffier sounding with deeper, richer sound but its still essentially the same album. Here EC elected to do as he did with the previous reissues; present the original album without any bonus tracks to mar the flow of the album and then a second disc with all the bonus tracks packaged together. It works. Trust should be, first and foremost, presented in its original format. Unlikely later releases (notably the weak, overproduced and glossy sounding Goodbye Cruel World and Punch The Clock).

The second disc is augmented with 8 bonus tracks consisting of alternate versions of material that appears on the main album. While the differences aren't always huge, the performances and the power packed into each make them worthwhile additions. The final track consists of the original piano demo for The Long Honeymoon (from Imperial Bedroom). It's interesting to contrast the simplicity of this demo to the final, elaborate version that made it to the EC/Geoff Emerick produced version.

While none of these alternate versions/early demos are relevations, they add a fresh feeling and a new appreciation for EC's craftmanship. Yes, he's an inspired, frequently brilliant artist but one that also is enamored with the craft necessary to make the music work. It's the last glimpse we'll get of the fire driven angst of EC until Blood and Chocolate. It's also the next to last album in a string of unbroken brilliantly realized classic albums.

Customer Reviews:

underworld.......2007-06-23

I remember buying this the first day it came out, I was really curious to hear what the Damning Well and Puscifer would sound like, I was not displeased. I also really enjoyed the David Bowie track, overall this is an above average soundtrack, at least I though so.

One of the best soundtracks to a movie ever........2007-05-26

Usually I'm not big on soundtracks, but this is by far my favorite soundtrack ever. The whole album was produced by Danny Lohner, the second best person to be in Nine Inch Nails after Trent. The first song, Awakening by The Damning Well (Danny Lohner, Richard Patrick, Wes Borland) is my favorite song on there. It's just a classic hard rock song with very melodic vocals done brilliantly by Richard Patrick. The second song, REV 22:20 by Puscifer (Maynard James Keenan, Danny Lohner) is another one of my favorites on the album and it has the sentual type vibe to it with extra vocals by Milla. All of the songs are really good, and I'm not just saying that. The Page Hamilton song was also good. Hell, all of them are worth listening to. The album will be worth the amount of money you spend, I can tell you that. It has some great collaborations and thats what got me interested in it in the first place. That and the fact that I'm a huge Danny Lohner fan (and he did a great job with this, by the way). I highly recommend it!

Better than I thought..........2006-10-15

I bought this album because iTunes wouldn't let me download the Puscifer track unless I downloaded the entire album... the rest of the CD actually isn't all that bad.

It took me months to buy this because I bought Underworld Evolution for one track and the rest of the CD wasn't anything to climax about. Songs like "Rev 22:20", "Optimissed", "Bring Me The Head of the Disco King", "Awakening", and every Renholder track on this album make it worth buying. I'd mention the A Perfect Circle tracks, but I already had those so they weren't new. They're a nice addition, though.

I never watched the movie so I can't really say if the songs fit in with the theme and feel of the film.

This CD is definately better than its sister. If you're thinking about buying one or the other, go with this one first.

Typical rock soundtrack.......2006-08-12

This is a good -not great-rock soundtrack.It fits the movie.
OK if you like this sort of thing.

Pretty much sucks...BUT..........2006-08-11

I hated the movie and this soundtrack blows but hey, it's got the best Finch song ever released on it...so I say 4 star. Worms of the Earth baby.

Can Stars trust their friends?.......2007-05-23

Stars' "Set Yourself On Fire" is one of my favorite indie albums of all time, and my definite favorite on the Arts and Crafts label. The album built upon the romanticized themes of their first two albums, while also proving the band to be a truly musically talented group. As the cliche goes, the album will always have a special place in my heart. When I first heard that Stars' masterpiece was going to be reworked by some of the most talented indie artists around today, I was both excited and worried at the same time. Did I really want this great album to be messed with? Were these talented musicians qualified to tackle this project and do it justice? Can Stars trust their friends?

The tracklist to "Do You Trust Your Friends?" is set up the same as the album it is based on. As such, most of it feels like a tribute album rather than a full-fledged remix/cover album. Also, with the exception of a few tracks, most of the original fantastic vocal work has been left in. This is a good thing, as the vocals are arguably the most attractive aspect of Stars' music.

In "Your Ex-Lover Is Dead," the lead-off and standout track from the first album, Final Fantasy takes on the huge task of recreating the cinematic feel of the original. It seems that this would be the best fit, as Owen Pallett is fantastic at composing intricate piano and string songs. However, despite his lush arrangement, the song feels very empty, and never builds into the epic grandeur of the original. It is a much more solemn song this time around, but not necessarily better. On Montag's version of "Set Yourself On Fire," layers upon layers of drums, guitars, synths, and electronics complement the vocals quite nicely without overpowering them.

My favorite track on the album has to be "Ageless Beauty" by The Most Serene Republic. Here, Amy Milan's beautiful declaration of "We will always be in love," is given new life thanks to the folksy guitars and piano that the band has implemented. I was never the biggest fan of the original, but this is a version that I can truly love. Not content to just reuse old vocals, Jason Collett opts to do a full-on cover of "Reunion." Like the songs that precede it, it offers a completely different take on Stars' music, and it does so nicely. The song now has a very southern rock feel to it, and it sounds great!

The album starts to drag a little bit with Minotaur Shock's version of "The Big Fight" which is a shallow and bland electronic rendition of a great song. If that wasn't enough, The Dears take it upon themselves to ruin what was probably the most exciting and uplifting song on "Set Yourself On Fire" with their version of "What I'm Trying To Say," which is inexplicably split into two parts. It's depressing that one of my favorite bands could completely destroy this great song. The Dears are capable of much better than this, to be sure. The album picks up again with "One More Night" covered by Apostle of Hustle. Their version of the song is not better than the original, but it is an interesting take on it nonetheless.

The Russian Futurists' version of "The First Five Times" utilizes power chords and breakbeats to make a somewhat decent reworking of the original song. This was never my favorite song to begin with, and this version doesn't change my mind about that. However, it is ambitious, and therefore worth a few courtesy listens. Metric's version of "He Lied About Death" is really the only other notable track on the album. While I'm a little disappointed to hear that the awesome saxophone solo from the original is not reused, it is refreshing to hear that the band was smart enough to leave out the absolutely childish lyric "I hope your drunken daughters are gay" (even if they do rely too heavily on the "Don't f*** with our lives" lyric).

So can Stars trust their friends? Well, they can trust some of them. Some bands like The Most Serene Republic and Jason Collett do a fantastic job of paying tribute to the original work, while others (The Stills and The Dears) completely destroy something that was once amazing. In the end, my opinion of "Do You Trust Your Friends?" is just as mixed as the quality of the songs it contains. This is not an album you'll listen to for months, or weeks for that matter. It's an album you pick up if you really loved "Set Yourself On Fire." It's an album you get if you want to hear talented musicians rework a classic collection of songs. But it's also an album that you'll wind up disappointed in. Despite the caliber of the artist contained within, "Do You Trust Your Friends" is a disappointment, plain and simple.

Recommended for fans of Stars and anyone who really likes to ruin works of art.

This Is Not Future World....This Is Now!!.......2006-02-06

What the world needs now is a clever and sharp Brit producer who knows how to find the rare talent that can create a fusion of Carribbean music for the 21st Century. Fortunately, with Richard Blair and Co., we have it here, and no one mixes electronica with traditional Latin beats better than Sidestepper. This disc has more downtempo smokey tracks than their last effort "More Grip," and the albumn demonstrates a greater stretch in scope of the musical territory it covers. Similarly, for those who can grasp the Spanish here, the songs show greater depth. However, if you're looking for la candela de bailar that "More Grip" presented, you should look to the tracks Mas Papaya and Me Gustas. Here they set things on fire in a way that even Campo from "More Grip" could not. The way Mas Papaya fuses Cumbia with Dancehall should even make Celso Piña envious, and Me Gustas hits it "on the one" with a funky African flavored joint you will struggle to get out of your head (or feet as the case may be!). If the new songs they are now playing live are any indication, the Afro thang seems to be the prevailing wind for the direction they are headed for the new albumn. I can't wait to see what suprises they will deliver for us with that one!

STEPPIN' TO THE SIDESTEPPER!!!.......2004-11-11

Very cool CD chalked full of ethnic rhythms, dub beats, latin, and dance tracks. And that's all I have to say:)!

Me gusta 2.......2004-08-04

Two tracks in particular make this album stand out: Aunque Me Duela la Vida & Dame Tu Querer. WOW, is all I can say. I'm a drum & bass Dj, and honestly, I can rarely think of two tracks I couldn't live without. But, here are two tunes I listen to during my "down" time. And I feel blessed knowing someone could produce something this groovy, yet melodic and hypnotizing. These two songs alone make this album a neccesity. And just a word to the wise, Sidestepper produced a super groovy latin drum and bass tune "Logozo" which may still be found here and there. Happy listening. - Nexus Six

Me Gusta!!!.......2004-06-15

This is the real "papaya" - hot sizzling, slick, slamming, and yet clever and cool - crosscutting and genre-bending. It is a must have for any lover of musica latina, jazz/soul, as well reggae/dancehall and a lotta funky attitude. The disc should have a warning that this is not for the musically challenged or the pigeonholer of styles... and if you are sitting still for Mas Papaya, then Papi, e'tas muerto - better grab a defibrillator!! Buy it, you will like eet!

Awesome.......2004-02-11

These brits, god bless them. Somehow they manage to get colombian lyricists, jamaican style rhyming and techno beats all wrapped into a delicious package. If you like latin music, techno or just good music in general, you need this in your CD arsenal. Think of it as Buena Vista Social Club with a slamming techno undertone, that's it.

everything a smooth jazz album should be.......2004-11-29

i am a boney james fan and "trust" is by far the best album he ever put out. from start to finish this record delivers!!! so light the candles, pour your favorite drink and let boney james' "trust" do the rest. My favorite track is "Kyoto". it's the most beautiful and relaxing song i have ever heard.

ammunition for both sides.......2004-08-28

Popular music can be a fickle thing. Take for example, the genre known as "Smooth Jazz." Some supposed jazz "purists" insist that it's a stagnant genre, filled with clichés and rudimentary musicianship and absent of innovation. Others champion the style, saying that the opposite is true. Smooth jazz fosters creativity and brings the music to a whole new audience.

Both sides would find plenty of things to justify their position listening to "Trust" by Boney James. This album was released in 1992, and Boney James was on the forefront of the R&B-laced saxophone jazz that would typify the decade. Assisted by the relatively unknown (at the time) producer Paul Brown and studio legends Paul Jackson, Jr, and Lenny Castro, among others, James crafted a fine album of crossover jazz, replete with high-tech synthesizers, soft percussion, R&B backbeats and enough jazzy chord changes to fill two albums. It stuck quite a pose at the time with most of its contemporaries falling into the "elevator music' category.

Some highlights of "Trust" include the prototype Boney James song "Metropolis," vaguely Asian-feeling "Kyoto," and fine smooth jams "Lilly" and "Roadrunner." Each provides a beautiful stage for James' alto, tenor and soprano saxophone stylings and paints lush, memorable pictures in the minds of listeners.

Naysayers will be glad to know that the other half of "Trust" is filled with an undefined blandness; even at album release (at the start of James' search for a signature sound) it was "could be anybody" music. Even the cover of Stevie Wonder's classic "Creepin'" is boring. These dull tracks sound even more anonymous now, after a decade or so, when nearly every saxophonist with a backbeat and a recording contract copped the style laid out by first-wave artists like James and Art Porter.

If you're a naysayer like I've described, you'll have ammunition with "Trust." If you're a Boney James fan, add to your collection with this release. If you're on the fence, start with James' "Sweet Thing" or more contemporary releases. They more accurately show what Boney James is capable of creating.

" WOW !!! ".......2004-07-20

My favorite track from this album is "Roadrunner".This CD is "Pure" smooth jazz music.I highly recommend his other CDs.Get this one if you are a Boney James fan!

The debut of a contemporary jazz master.......2003-04-21

With "Trust" the world was introduced to the best contemporary jazz saxophonist of our time. There is no beginners jitters here, only solid, smooth and sexy sax playing. Boney perfected his talent by playing with the likes of The Isley Brothers, Teena Marie, Vesta, Cherrelle and Ray Parker Jr. and all that talent comes through on every track here. My favorite is the song dedicated to his wife, "Lily". The emotion for his wife is brilliantly projected through his sax and would make any woman melt. The rest of the album defines what Smooth Jazz is all about. No collection would be complete without "Trust".

Defines what Smooth Jazz is all about........1999-09-18

This CD defines what Smooth Jazz is all about. Just listen to "Another Place Another Time" and "Metropolis" and you will know why. This is a must have-- in any Smooth Jazz music collection. Boney James cannot be matched on the Sax. Sincerely, Suzette

Classic Dead Kennedys.......2007-07-04

Ok first off I am not interested in all the controversy about the ex band member.

I heard all the BS about them and know full well about their "Rock and Coke" festival in Turkey (Dead Kennedys rock and Coke....please) Though in saying that not much of a fan of post DK Jello churning out LP after LP saying the same boring meaningless rant for the kids (yeh he may go on about the ex band members milking the DK's name for profit but can he realy say he is doing any different with his endless Jello Biafra and the blah blah band albums?)

Anyway, rant over. DK were/are one of my all time favorite band from way back before any tv ad or whatever and this is one of my all time favorite LPs. DK were great because they could mix politics with good music and humour as well. They didnt rant but just took the p*** out of the powers that be. Some of these tracks (such as bleed for me, I am the owl) need to be heard by kids today.

Great to hear, never mind the BS over the ex band members. Leave them to fight it out amongst themselves. Me, I will just keep the memories of a great band.

Re-master this!!.......2007-04-12

Censored for the SUV generation. The original release of "In God We Trust Inc." included the track "Too Drunk to F**k". Dont bother. Look for a used copy of the previous CD release.
"Plastic Surgery Disasters" was not their best release. Jello Biafra's lyrics sound like he was running out of ideas.

Another good DK cd........2007-04-11

Good punk with Jello and some politics. Typical DK, but in a good way.

pardon me for being a "poser" but i think this album is a tad overrated.......2006-07-19

maybe i dont get it or had to be there or something. i mean, maybe im just growing out of this political "shock" punk thing. maybe "nazi punks f**k off" has more of a back story and was a protest anthem that i am unaware of.

anyways, yes, this album is well worth a spot in any DK fan's collection and hits pretty hard and fast at that! there are some great little hardcore political songs on this. i mean, it isn't near as attractive as bad brains or early bad religion, but ill give the boys their credit. they were nice and creative in a political sense around a time when most bands were trying to be another Ramones. make sure you get fresh fruit for rotting veggies first. that is the DK album to own.

p.s. if you get this and want it brand new, dont worry about those "alternative tentacles" nutcases. this band broke up about 20 years ago and people are still raving about how they are "selling out." even so, a band that makes people think about important issues should be noticed by more than the people who already agree with it. so jello isnt profitting like many argue. well unless you buy these cds from jello himself, it is all the same. id rather support the 3 other guys in the band, over some elitist record store owner who will buy beer.

Another classic.......2006-03-09

This is another Dk release,The bass work really stands out on this and all the other instruments are done with perfection ,Pick this up now!
