CD ReviewsThe best of an era bgandl | Detroit | 09/06/2005 (2 out of 5 stars) "Nobody added more to more rock and roll albums than Nicky Hopkins. He was a full member of The Jeff Beck Group (along with Ron Wood and Rod Stewart), Quicksilver Messenger Service and The Jerry Garcia Band. As a sideman, he moved the sound to another level for Jefferson Airplane, Steve Miller, Matthew Sweet, the Beatles and (listen to "Angie") the Rolling Stones' very best work. Here, he shows off his instrumental skills but the writing and singing are painful." The Dreamer J. Tucker | Chicago | 08/15/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Nicky Hopkins was an underrated musician who decided to try a solo album with this venture. He played with The Rolling Stones as a studio musician, and with Quicksilver Messenger Service as a full fledged member. The first five tracks of the album were the best in my opinion, and after that it flounders, revealing Hopkin's weakness as a rock and roll writer. However, 'Dolly' is a haunting ballad that includes Mick Taylor on lead guitar, and 'Edward' is an interesting instrumental that rocks. The quality of those first five tracks more than makes up for the rest of the album which unfortunately seemed like an afterthought. However, ultimately, it is a classic and one I searched for on CD for many years. Thank you Amazon!" Hopkins Classic Available on CD J. L. Mankin | Oklahoma | 06/28/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "Nicky Hopkins was one of the driving forces behind Quicksilver Messenger Servce, as well as a big, in demand session piano player. He just has this unique piano playing gift, and has a voice that is so distinctive. His voice really grows on you. This album is long gone from my collection, and it is nice to finally see it available on CD. The one song I have sung from time to time is Dolly....."Dolly, where are you? Dolly, come see me through. Dolly, I'm so in love with you....."
I will have to save a few pennies for this one, but I remember this being Nicky's best effort." |
