 ... well as the average classical listener. Furthermore, David puts his own stamp on these songs, which makes the album very appealing; you aren't buying just another copy of these songs but another version of them. 'Canon' in particular is a fantastic version, as is Pagannini's 'Rhapsody', but really, they are all fantastic. This album is great for other music fans too, with David covering the rock classic 'Nothing Else Matters', for example, and it's fantastic how he fuses rock and classical music and shows that i...more

Premium Review Virtuoso - David Garrett: A true 'Virtuoso' (433 words)

This is a fantastic album for music fans. Although this is David Garrett's debut here in the UK, this doesn't do his career justice; he's had various other cds released in Europe and has been an acclaimed violinist from a young age. First picking up the violin at the age of four, when his elder brother took up the instrument, David ended up being a natural and eventually, as his album suggests, a virtuoso!

Pop Rock - 1990

Side One - Adrian Belew
Glorious return, most experimental solo release to date. Still sounds like the stuff he was doing in the eighties.

Side Three - Adrian Belew
Satisfying conclusion, building on its predecessors and introducing new elements. Clear overlap with Belew's concurrent work in King Crimson.

Side Two - Adrian Belew
A different approach that works surprisingly well. Songs tend to sound the same.

Op Zop Too Wah - Adrian Belew
Adrian Belew finally gives the fans what they want. Some of the tracks are ridiculous and pointless, but that still lends them a certain charm.

Mr. Music Head - Adrian Belew
Mix of catchy pop and slightly more experimental songs. Neither style works especially well.

Inner Revolution - Adrian Belew
The guitar is back, at least. Belew continues to produce disappointing pop, several decades out of date.

Here - Adrian Belew
Re-introduces long-absent guitar experimentation. Mostly Beatles plagiarism.

Animosity - Berzerker
The drummer is technically accomplished. He does the same thing nineteen times every second for twenty-eight minutes.

Desire Of The Rhino - Adrian Belew
You don't have to buy the full-length albums. It's still not that great.
