Produced by Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty & Mike Campbell. Tom Petty gets written off by a lot of people for being overly simple and one dimensional. But, as he shows on his first solo album, first impressions can be deceiving. Petty's material is not as simple as it sounds...and even if it were, there's nothing wrong with something that sounds as great as this. Jeff Lynne shows why he's one of the best producers in the business, and the songs are all excellent, even if they do sound simple at first listen.

1989-RCA
Produced By TONY BERG
1. No Myth
2. Half Harvest
3. This & That
4. Brave New World
5. Innocent One
6. Disney's A Snow Cone/Bedlam Boys
7. Invisible
8. Cupid's Got A Brand New Gun
9. Big House
10. Battle Room
11. Evenfall
Yep. This is, indeed Sean Penn's little brother. And yes, the magic dust that seemed to bless the Penn children did not skip Michael. March is a strong debut album that came from nowhere to give us one of the more pleasant hit singles of 1989, the jangly acoustic "No Myth". What if I WAS Romeo in black jeans? But this wasn't just a one hit and a bunch of filler. March is actually a really good record.
The first 4 tracks are as strong a beginning of an album as you'll find. Catchy, melodic, and not a speck of cheese anywhere near it. "Brave New World" might be the catchiest song of the 80's that isn't buried in aquanet or new wave. And "Half Harvest", "This & That", and the awesome "Cupid's Got A Brand New Gun" are all just as good. (The last one, "Cupid", was actually partially recorded for my album...I almost covered it.)
March is not perfect...but it is really good. Definitely worth more than a spin, because this one does grow on you. [First added to this chart: 04/13/2012]

1989-ELEKTRA
Produced By ROBERT SMITH & DAVID M ALLEN
1. Plainsong
2. Pictures Of You
3. Closedown
4. Lovesong
5. Last Dance
6. Lullaby
7. Fascination Street
8. Prayers For Rain
9. The Same Deep Water As You
10. Disintegration
11. Homesick
12. Untitled
The Cure's 8th album is their best selling, and may be their best overall album. Robert Smith was under a lot of pressure to come up with a winner, was back on the hallucinogenics, and was under pressure from the rest of the band to fire founding drummer Lol Tolhurst, which he did, leaving himself as the only remaining original member. Although the band has always disliked the "goth" label, Disintegration is a goth masterpiece. It's dark, with solid keyboards and great songs. The big hit was "Lovesong", their only US top 10, but the rest is very listenable, well written and played to perfection. A huge step up from their tinny sounding earlier work.
The Cure still rolls on. And, according to Kyle from South Park, "Disintegration is the best album ever". [First added to this chart: 04/13/2012]

Produced by Jim Rondinelli, Tom Herbers & The Jayhawks. After their debut album, The Jayhawks found themselves without a label and without Gary Louris. They recorded this batch of demos (Louris came back to help) to get a label deal, and it ended up being released. The result is Blue Earth, a collection of raw recordings of some really great songs. It got them compared to Gram Parsons, and rightfully so. Unsung, and totally great in an almost unfinished kind of way.
