In Suspicious I hear a slight connection to Bob Marley's tune Kaya (mostly '78 version, but also present in '71 version).

The guitar and line, and then...
Keith - Suspicious as it seems, you're cropping up in dreams.

Marley - I feel so high, I even touch the sky.
Or - I feel so good, in my neighborhood.

Might be a stretch, and obviously completely different tunes , but similar in my mind.

Still like Suspicious as a favorite, in the same way You Don't Move Me became a favorite.
They were both the first to really grab me from the first listen.

Genius catch. You can be sure Keith heard that tune at some point. And who knows. Maybe it filtered up to his subconscience when he wrote Suspicious.

Keith's album is excellent, IMO. This is the most important factor, I guess. In addition, as expert IORRians (like Georgelicks) say, it is going to be his most sucessful album, from a commercial point of view, by the measures of the era, of course.

But the moaning is unceasing here!... Some say, "what a shame, Gilmour sells much better...". My first "answer" could be "so what?". My second answer: It surprises me the fact that some people can't undestand how pointless this comparison is. Keith is an iconic guitarist of a legentary band. David was an iconic guitarist AND singer of another legendary band. Speaking about the so called general public, the difference is huge: Any David's solo album seems and sounds like an good Floyd's "representative". But Keith's albums are not "working" this way - Mick's voice would be neccessary for that...



Maybe for the hardcore Stones fans Keith's singing is a part of the band's soul. But for the "general public" Keith is an iconic guitarist who "can't sing"...

So, don't underestimate Keith's success!

I think some people and Mick probably knows this hence the set lists, get bored with too many ballads and not enough rockers. People want the same formula as past albums. Myself, I'd rather see something different. Talk is Cheap and Main Offender in this aspect were very similar. I love that Keith does country style on this album and some of the other sounds are unique for Keith.

And always love when Keith does reggae songs.

I'm not a sucker for Keith ballads either. However "brilliant" they are. And I don't think he has much of a voice. Rather a loud whisperer. Some of the rockers are more fun though. Like the first single.

If you asked me beforehand, I would say I'd prefer the rockers too. BUT, and a big 'but' ... these songs are really good. Robbed Blind, Just A Gift, Goodnight Irene, all brilliant tracks, both musically and most especially Keith's vocals. I think anyone will feel the same if they give it a few listens.

I am not a fan of the mix of this record, way too muddy.
Probably the way Keith wanted it.

On the Best Buy bonus track 'Love Overdue' w/ Lee 'Scratch' Perry-
maybe a 'dumb' question,
the 'scratch' sound at the end? It is like a high pitch noise, maybe only me and the dogs hear it?
What is that?
(and I read the CD footnotes before asking...nada...)
Thanks!

Always remember to turn the phone off in the studio.
Scratch is probably receiving text messages on the cell. heh spinning smiley sticking its tongue out

sounds like digital background noise from the plug-ins.
no one cared about such things when it was all analog delays and other gadgets.

It's a Farfisa organ, that sound. It's in various places in the song in a couple of different modes.

Perhaps to your ears? (what's that thing attached to your ears?) tongue sticking out smiley

I recently watched an eclectic Arte Docu about Lee Scatch where he was putting on his mojo on completely different things in the middle of freezing Switzerland.
he sure has it and that's why Keith lets him.
Perry uses modern bits and pieces as they come, ...as tools.

don't know it this is still availlable if not do search for it.

Hey # 11 is nothing to sneeze at in the USA. Fantastic album all the way around. My favorite since Tattoo YOU. I just cant stop playing it. There really isnt one clunker on it imho. Considering it is probably not getting any air play # 11 is awesome. Talk is Cheap only peaked at what? # 23 or so and MAIN OFFENDER did not even crack the top 50 so 11 is good.

best since Tattoo You? You can not be serious!eye popping smiley

Better than Tattoo You

I think it's the best since tatoo you. And I have learned not to get excited about these things.
It is more mature and diverse than talk is cheap, which until now was the best since tattoo you.

1. Just for the record, I see the glass as fully empty.

Come on Longbeach ...if you're glass is that empty, have a drink on me.
I call it the 'Crosseyed Heart':

a shot of blues,
a sprig of reggae,
a dash of country,
a splash of soul,
and some fine rock'n'roll....on the rocks of course!

It's sure to brighten you're spirits (unless you don't partake in that kind of stuff)!

my attitude is that these are all future "crosseyed heart" fans who will see the light one day, so just be patient riffhards. 6 months from now "illusion" or "robbed blind" will come on some trendy HBO tv show and people will say holy sdfl what is this song i've never heard it before and Boom!

Best not to call them morons in any case though. Save that word for people who, say, program the cars they make to cheat on emissions tests.
