CD Reviews

A Deceiving Misnomer

narx | Toronto | 02/10/2004

(2 out of 5 stars)

"The Bad - No song in this album is completely acoustic. The album title probably refers the occasional sound of guitar plucks and bongos in some songs. Thus, expect no new or unplugged versions. Everything But The Girl is a fantastic group with an album called Acoustic... Why did this album pick their dance club hit single Missing which has nothing acoustic in it? And please, the album didn't have to go way back Bob Dylan and Simon & Garfunkel era! They just don't mix well with Dido & Nickelback!The Good - We get to listen to other talented artists we otherwise would've ignored completely."

"Flows like a stagnant backwater - but - with 40 tracks, and most being eminently listenable the release isn't bad. very mixed: genre, tempo, instrumentation, era. this can be played where mass appeal is critical, with few not finding something to like. 3.5 stars for interesting diversity."
