iTunes Review
On Natural History, J.D. Souther reconsiders both his hits for Linda Ronstadt and the Eagles and his own catalog of albums from the ‘70s and ‘80s. Souther’s elegance as a composer as well as his spare, rueful lyric style come through in unvarnished style on these acoustic-centered tracks. The jazz influence present on his 2008 release If the World Was You can be heard here as well, lending a low-lit nightclub ambiance to these tunes. Souther’s high tenor vocals sound seasoned and a little world-weary, adding to the wistful fatalism found in songs like “Faithless Love,” “Prisoner In Disguise” and “Go Ahead and Rain.” Singing from an older and perhaps wiser perspective, he brings a deepened insight to “New Kid In Town” and “Best of My Love.” Among other things, the album highlights the melodic sophistication of Souther’s chords and melodies — “Silver Blue” and “The Sad Café” especially shine in this stripped-down setting. For old fans and new listeners alike, Natural History makes for beautifully bittersweet listening.
Customer Reviews
Excellent performance, excellent songs
Legendary songs re-interpereted by the man who wrote them and performed with an insight and wistfulness that burns them into your mind. Other artists did great versions of some of these songs, but these hold their own as a personal vision from the man who wrote them in the first place, put them out there and then let them mature on their own. If you ever bought an Eagles or Jackson Browne record and you don't own this, you're missing something special. Then buy the rest of the catalog...seriously.
No One Is Better than JD
Scary beautiful...JD Souther's voice is still as amazing-or more-as all those days ago with Linda, Don and Glenn, James etc.
No one can harmonize like this guy and by himself.... seems to do it even as a soloist. "I guess I'm standin' in the halls of broken dreams..." Are you kidding me? Faithless Love, Best Of My Love.... wow, but Prisoner In Disguise... nothing better.
Thanks JD
Family
Having grown up with him as my dad's cousin, he never fails to touch my heart through his words and soft voice. He also plays the guitar in Roy Orbison's Pretty Woman video. And has been in serveral movies. He so very talented in many ways under appriciated. He has written music that we all know and love, yet have no true idea that he was the author. PLease listen to his older albums. You will fall in love with them also.
