CD Reviews

Niacin goes "Deep"
D. L. Worthing | Arundel, Maine United States | 12/31/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This 2000 release although not as good as their latest release "Time Crunch" it comes in a close second.
"Deep" contains many rock, blues, jazz-fusioned flavored tracks. They do a cover of Van Halen's "Mean Streets" with bassist Billy Sheehan wailing out an unbelievable bass groove. They also get help from Toto veteran and guitar legend Steve Lukather and smoking vocals by Glenn Hughes on "Things Ain't Like They Used To Be" one of the many highlights on the disc.
With the trademark keyboards of John Novello and drum veteran Dennis Chambers this is a must have for fusions fans out there.
Get it!"

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Like a down and dirty version of Emerson Lake & Palmer, Niacin mix elements of what made ELP great, with elements of other early Prog 'n Blues bands such as Family and Audience. The track "Things Ain't What They Used To Be" would have been a staple on 70's radio if it had been released 25-30 years ago. Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple) vocals and Steve Lukather's (Toto) guitars definitely add a nice touch to the sound. I'd love to see these guys do some more tracks in this same vein on the next album. (C'mon Magna Carta, get them all together for another record) Plus a nifty cover of Van Halen's "Mean Streets""

"If you liked the other Niacin releases, you will no doubt enjoy this one. The playing is top notch as always, but my suggestion for the next cd would be for Novello to vary his keyboard sounds a bit. I know that the B3 is a big part of Niacin, but some more modern patches would open up a new dimension for the band. One thing is for sure: I would love to see this band in concert."
