rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - I've got to give Laurie Anderson an enormous amount of credit. Not only is she one of the most intelligent and talented human beings alive (okay, ever), but she managed to do something to me that no one else has, and that is to inspire me with an album...

The best sub chain out there?

Mon, 6 Aug 2007 12:21:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - Review - "nomnomnom!" I consider myself to be somewhat of a connoisseur of subs. For the last few years, I have tried several sub chains' sandwiches. I outgrew Subway and Blimpie early on in favour of the toasty goodness that is Quizno's...

Surprisingly good-tasting and "complete" source of nutrients

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - I am just getting over one of the worst bouts of viral gastroenteritis I have ever had. I've already been losing a little weight due to personal stress, but I've dropped a further two or three pounds due to the toll the sickness has taken on my body. I...

Unsettling faux-Celtic pop and folk-rock mix lacks much "spirit" at all

Mon, 11 Jun 2007 15:52:54 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - There were dead bugs all dried up in the liner notes of the used copy of this album that I bought. Hmm. Apparently, Spirit of the West are supposed to be the Pogues-lite... only from Canada. However, I don't really like the Pogues and therefore...

O'Hara gives listeners "something to cry about," and then some

Thu, 28 Sep 2006 11:37:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - Mary Margaret O'Hara sounds like she could have been a writer for Hallmark. With titles such as "You Will Be Loved Again" and "Help Me Lift You Up" mixed in with lines proclaiming, "Everyone walk in brightness/'Cause it's anew [no space!] day," (all...

The arrangement's not - quite - quite there (but it's still not half bad).

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - With three Jane Siberry reviews in one week, it doesn't take too much to tell you much that I'm a pretty big Sibling (Jane fan). Will that automatically provide a bias? Well, yes and no. Upon buying Jane's 1984 sophomore release, No...

Sensual, epic, ethereal - Jane does it again with 'When I Was A Boy'

Sun, 23 Apr 2006 18:52:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - I think it's pretty obvious what my opinion of Jane Siberry is... Painfully so for those who have read my review of Jane's magnum opus T

Walking. Since you have already heard my spiel on J-Sib, let's get...

Ever riotous, ever willing, ever walking - 'Walking' is a true masterpiece for the ages.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - Wow. Just... Wow. Words have defied me for the longest time in trying to write a review about this amazing album. I tried to find the right words to describe this record when I first started listening to it. It didn't work. Here I am, nearly four...

'Tribe' stands out as an obvious breakthrough album for the Maniacs

Wed, 23 Nov 2005 18:20:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - I love 10,000 Maniacs. Ever since my first serious exposure to them a year ago (again, via Amazon), I have found myself loving virtually all of the Natalie-era oeuvre. Then again, what's not to love? Natalie Merchant provides excellent lyrics on the...

'Hounds' proves to be a sonic masterpiece

Tue, 22 Nov 2005 23:44:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author themorningfog - I'll be completely honest here. When I find new music, I don't look to trusted magazines or friends or critics or any of that mess. No, readers, I browse around on the behemoth that is Amazon.com. Amazon is the primary reason why I've discovered some...
