CD ReviewsMojave 3 will rock ya! 02/25/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "Only joking about the title! Mojave 3's second album marks an interesting progression for the band. Where Ask me Tomorrow was two parts Mazzy Star to one part Leonard Cohen, Out of Tune sees them going down an altogether different route. The mournful, twilight feel that infused the first album has been replaced by altogether sunnier vibes on the second, and in Some Kinda Angel and You Keep It All Hid, Mojave actually sound pretty upbeat. The Dylan influence is quite tangible, but elements of Nick Drake (All Your Tears) and Simon and Garfunkel (Some Kinda Angel) can also be sensed. Favourite tracks are Who Do You Love, Give What You Take, the gorgeous All Your Tears and Baby's Coming Home. However, the album is worth decidedly more than the sum of its parts and there are no weak songs. If you're in the mood for listening to 40 minutes of warm, wistful, quietly moving music, whether on a sunny day or on a dark winter night, Out of Tune comes highly recommended" Disappointing Remi Olsen | Spokane, WA USA | 12/06/2001 (3 out of 5 stars) "I'm a big fan of Mojave 3, but found this album to be a lot worse than "Ask Me Tomorrow" and "Excuses For Travellers". Sure, some of the songs like "Some Kinda Angel" and "To Whom Should I Write" are classics, but most of the others just seem un-inspired, kinda like they just put them down in a hurry to pump the album out. Start with either "Ask Me Tomorrow" or "Excuses For Travellers" if you want to start with Mojave 3." Not quite as stellar as"Ask Me Tomorrow" but still excellent Remi Olsen | 06/16/1999 (4 out of 5 stars) "This is a bit different than their previous release, but I would still consider the sounds they produce as good ear candy. I hear some strains of mid to late period Felt in a number of songs (the swirling organ), as well a bit of Nick Drake even (particularly in the last song). Another stellar release from an underappreciated band. I hope this isn't their last domestic release here!"
