Album Review

Because Paul Hardcastle has had great commercial success with his "Jazzmasters" projects, he occasionally gets linked to jazz. In reality, Hardcastle is a producer of electronic pop instrumental records who uses keyboards, drum machines, some regular instruments, often a saxophone lead and occasional singers to create dance music. The emphasis on repetition and long melody statements fits securely into lower-level acid jazz, although it lacks any real spontaneity. This double-CD has rare tracks (formerly out only in Europe), a few hits, lots of cover tunes of pop songs and plenty of previously unreleased pieces that should be of interest to Paul Hardcastle collectors.

Customer Reviews

19

That is how old I was when I was in Vietnam. 19. This is an amazingly telling song. He gets it so right as to the process of the Vietnam soldier from beginning to in some cases the end. OK enough of that. This is a great collection of music but that is nothing new since Paul Hardcastle always puts out great music. If you have been a fan of his you will love this CD. If you are new to his music I think this collection will give you a good idea of the creative genius of this man. Don't miss out. Get this collection of songs, sit back and enjoy. Guaranteed you will be back for more.

The average age of a soldier in Vietnam was 19. What a great and terrific song. He is a genius when it comes to his song writing abilities. I cream all over the place when I think of 19 year old Soldiers, All packed into one barracks room, standing all nuts to butt.
