Grace Potter and the Nocturnals: Deluxe Edition (CD & DVD) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well since this is the deluxe edition with DVD I'll comment on that first. Personally I think it's a great bonus. It's six songs performed live in Burlington, Vermont right on the lakefront, which is the same place they played just last night. There's a few cuts from this album, as well as their past hit "Apologies" which I love, and a cool cover of "White Rabbit". Plus A few interview bits here and there. I think this is a Best Buy exclusive kind of thing. For the album itself, it may be a little more produced than some fans want, but it's still a good listen. Bluesy, rockin' and sexy. I don't think "Tiny Light" was the best choice for first single but it's ok. Most of what's here I enjoy, but my faves are "One Short Night" and "Hot Summer Night". Gotta have a couple songs about nights on here, being the Nocturnals and all. With the DVD, four stars.

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If there is one thing I can't stand it is a purist music snob. Someone who is so stuck on their own wants and expectations they don't let the artist do what they want to do with their own lives/ careers. This is a great album. It has great songs with great lyrics and powerful vocals. I personally commend any artist who tries something different. Who gives a crap if the artist is going for mass appeal. You people wining about the "overproduction" are the same ones wining that there is nothing on the radio worth listening to. Forget you. This cd freaking rocks. The first track, Paris, is sexy as hell. Oasis has beautiful lyrics and a cool vibe. I say Kudos for trying a different direction. I love her early stuff and I love this CD just as much. Buy it. If you like power vocals with power guitar you'll love this.

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals are like a modern-day version of Tina Turner stroking the microphone in a spangled mini-dress while fronting the Rolling Stones circa Sticky Fingers. The proof is there for all to hear on the band's third album for Hollywood Records and marks an artistic breakthrough for a vital young band caught in the act of fulfilling its immense promise. Little wonder that Grace and her cohorts have chosen to title it, directly and emphatically, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. Album produced by Mark Batson (Jay-Z, Dr Dre, Alicia Keys).
