Album Reviews
On Tejas, ZZ Top countrified the bluesy posture of their previous albums, resulting in a slight detour between the madcap spirit of Fandango and the psychedelic strut of Deguello. While the album lacks any singles as strong as "Tush" or "La Grange," "Arrested for Driving While Blind" is one of ZZ's classic anthems, capturing the group's wacky humor and jaunty good-time boogie. Other highlights include the driving "Enjoy and Get It On," "Avalon Hideaway," and the fine instrumental "Asleep in the Desert." However, like all of their early albums, the CD transfer is spoiled by overdubbing and other lame attempts to update (and, in some cases, extend) the original songs, and it much better on vinyl. ~ Jim Smith, All Music Guide

Positif Mr. Oizo |
| While a lot of the recent Ed Banger releases, Justice aside, seem to scraping the barrel of electro, Mr Oizo continues to produce interesting and challenging dance music. Positif is no exception, a jarring monster of a track that is currently receiving plays from a number of electro luminaries. Erol Alkan featured the track in his A-Z on Rob Da Bank. The stop start samples and drum beats give way to a bass line that is sure to cause seizures when reverberating from any club's speakers. While for some people Mr. Oizo may never shake off "that advert", those who continue to keep up with his output are sure to carry on enjoying one of France's finest exponents of electronic music. | |
