CD ReviewsThe Ox buries himself in '80s shlock-rock T. Sileo | Charlotte, NC USA | 10/27/2006 (2 out of 5 stars) "The whole appeal of John Entwistle's work was his darkly-humoured writing, thunderous bass, and distinctive yet very capable vocals. None of this are easily found in The Rock, recorded in the mid-80s. It is chock-full of musical cliches from the era, both musically and lyrically (stock guitar riffs and synthesizers, trite lyrics). It's really an Entwistle album in name only, as he wrote only 4 of the original 10 songs, defers lead vocals to Henry Small, and shows none of the musical complexity of his Who or '70s solo work. It does rock a bit, though, in a mindless way. And the review above is right, 'Love Doesn't Last' is the best song on the album. If you want a better sample of some of his later work, get the 'Left For Live' set." Buy it for track 15 and a tribute to the greatest! Roy R. Geurts | 02/23/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Love doesn't last is a great song in demo version and why not spend a few bucks for the greatest bass player that ever lived. A true genius and a wonderfully twisted individual."
