Music Reviews

by David M. Cheney

My taste in music varies rather widely. There are a few genres that I just don't like much: country, hard rock, rap, opera, and almost anything with electrical guitars. Even within those areas there are a few exceptions.

A number of the people and groups I do like are rather hard to classify - it is always interesting to look in a smaller store to see how they are catagorized.

In most cases the music I like tells a story. Among other thing this means the words have to be understandable- something so often lacking in modern music.

Over time I hope to expand this section a good deal, but I'm afraid with all my projects, this one will be slow.

David Wilcox: He is a very talented story teller that also plays the guitar and sings from time to time. I think he is the best example I know of a performer that should be seen live rather than on recordings. Its not that his cd's aren't good - they are very good - but rather they simply fail to convey fully the in concert experience.
