Endless Whining

Review Score: (4/10)
Seem cruel? Please do not take it in the harshest way. I would like to agree with a reviewer 'music fan from USA' and would like to point out 'in general' I am reviewing the remaining Lightfoot cd's with this review on each following cd. Lightfoot had struck such a thunderous stride on Summertime Dream and the ride all the way was just relentless, churning out such rich vivid landscapes, songs like 'Miguel' come to mind... and then there are albums like this. Passionless. Mixed with the hammiest recording fumblings imaginable. Vocals that seem monotone and obsolete, void of any longing. seem cruel? Well, that's how I feel. Sure there were some goodies. Shadows (3.5 stars) for instance was quite good, but even that suffered a tremendously passionless production. From Endless Wire on out Lightfoot has truly lost his way. These remaining cd's need something they never had, nuturing. Folk and music of this type cannot be manufactured on an assembly line and Endless Wire highlights that.
