Music Album Reviews

Jacques Brel – Olympia 1964 ****

There's nothing quite as gut-wrenchingly emotional as a sweat-drenched, so-poetic-it-hurts Belgian knocking one back, song wise.



Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA ****
Moving swiftly on from flailing Belgians to patriotic american sleeze stadium rock. The Boss draped his jeans-baring tootsie-pop behind onto the cover and unleashed this anthem-fuelled corker of an album.


Green Day - Dookie **
Pop-punk, fringe-and-eyeliner outcasts crying into their electric guitars. Blah.
