 TrowerPower | Living Out Of Time CD Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
this album sounds very similar to "go your own way" which was another tonal diappointment, except for track 10, which sounded like the old trower.this new studio tone is lacking in clarity and vocal reproduction.i just don't understand why most artists tend to shy away from their original sounds that made them famous.
Livin out of time has a wonderfull midrange kind of mix and I like all of the songs but the last cut is worth a couple of tickets to a trower concert.
Out of Time is a brilliant body of work - Robin's playing is as inspirational as ever and the band gel together so well - Davey's vocals are superb.

 DVD-Audio Review: R.E.M. - ‘Out of Time’
Perhaps the time has come to revisit the album in its new remaster for DVD-Audio by Warner Brothers, and be swept away again by a burst of invention which changed the face of mainstream pop and opened the doors to the tidal wave of angst which was about to sweep rock in the 1990’s.
Here, for the first time on the album, the whining pedal steel guitar begins to pull on the emotions as it wails from note to note.
And now comes the album’s killer track, one of the greatest moments in rock history (or indeed, in all music history, as this is a song for the ages) as the pedal steel mournfully moans the intro to ‘Country Feedback’, a song utterly drenched with sadness and longing.

 Amazon.co.uk: Time Out of Mind: Music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
At the beginning of Time Out of Mind, Bob Dylan finds himself in the same dead-day world as on 1964's "One Too Many Mornings." By now, though, he can't be bothered to romanticise the street and the distant dogs' barking; he can only moan about how sick he is of love, of himself.
The depth and class of the album is first masked by it's subtlety and understatement, but this grows to be it's great strength, for those prepared to listen.
As a whole album though i think 3.5/5 is a fairer score as the rest of the album in my opinion tends to be filled with a lot of bland dirty swampy blues but without any grit.

At this time-- just starting college, still impressionable and idealistic about certain aspects of my life that I didn't think others could understand or appreciate-- I thought that R.E.M. were incapable of making a bad or even mediocre album, and Automatic for the People only strengthened my resolve as a fan.
Despite its terrible timing, Monster doesn't deserve its reputation as the worst-ever follow-up to a beloved album.
I wish I could devote as much time and imagination to pore over the lyrics, parse out the sounds, consider their meanings, hold the album covers up to the light to find hidden messages.

This is an album of aging, love, reflections, regrets, and life.

 Another side of Bob Dylan's ``Time Out of Mind" by Seth Rogovoy
This week, with the arrival of the CD version of "Time Out of Mind" (Columbia), we take a look at the music and performance as captured on the recording.
The album was recorded live in the studio, and you can hear each number take shape -- virtually every track begins with the instrumentalists finding a spontaneous groove and running with it, heightening the existential presence of the performance.
And "Time Out of Mind" is a sad reminder of how the gauntlet laid down by Dylan with his mid-'60s work -- the possibility that rock music could stand on an equal footing with the best of our nation's literary output -- has gone sadly unchallenged.

 Know The Ledge........Album Review: Troubleman - Time Out of Mind.......Know The Ledge........Album Review: Troubleman ...
Part of Far Out's 10th celebration (read the interview with Far Out guv'nor Joe Davis elsewhere on Know the Ledge), it is the first full album recorded under that name by Mark Pritchard, he of many monikers, deep breath: Reload, Global Communication, Jedi Knights and Link.
The title track, Time Out of Mind, is lively techno with a twist, and while we all know how good Eska Mtungwazi is from her work with NSM, Ty and others, on Roll On she proves easily the equal of the American soul singers we get so excited about.
Despite all this, Time Out of Mind remains a fantastic, genre-defying album, and if you’re buying it on vinyl, it’ll be quite easy to just leave the first record in the sleeve and hammer the second one.

 Bob Dylan: Time Out Of Mind - Playing God - Stylus Magazine
As important as Time Out Of Mind is though, both in terms of relevance and musical invention, one thing is generally glossed over in the reviews that greeted it with open arms: It is deadly boring.
This is an album of rejection, both of and by Dylan; but whereas his love is rejecting him (constantly, in these songs), he's rejecting the whole world.
This whole album, at least this version of it, is like finding out your beloved grandfather is actually a cold killer, something that turns on you when you least expect it.

Out Of Time represents one of R.E.M.’s greatest musical achievements.
As an artistic statement, this one was not out of time, but rather precisely right on time.

Though R.E.M. titled a later album Monster, this 1991 smash was the true monster, with the little Athens, Georgia, quartet graduating once and for all from its jangling independent-rock roots.
"Out Of Time" is clearly one of R.E.M.'s worst early albums, but it's funny how good it is even with this in mind.
Take any REM album from the early and mid-80s and play them today, the music stands up and is contemporary as anything out there.

Approaching this album as an admirer (but certainly not a dedicated fan), I was not prepared for the impact it would have on me. Here is an album, released at a time when most artists would be wrapping up their careers, that is as strong as anything he has ever done.
The album ends with one of Dylan's great rambling epics, "Highlands," the heart of which is an encounter he has with a waitress in Boston.
At a time when most people thought that Dylan had taken to writing nursery rhymes or reinventing folk songs from his childhood, along comes a truly unique collection of songs that re-establish him as the greatest songwriter of all time.

 Bob Dylan - Time Out Of Mind   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
It would be easy to assume that the most strinking trait about TIME OUT OF MIND could be Dylan's triumphant recovery and return.
This isn't to say that his albums of the late 70's and 80's haven't had their moments; but somehow, Dylan has been revitalized, coming to terms with who he is, and what he is capable of.
At other times, it seems as though he's going after a Petty/Wallflowers vibe (lots of distortion and plenty of heavy-handed organ).

 NPR : TIME OUT OF MIND
All Things Considered, September 26, 1997 · Bob Dylan's first album of new material in seven years is being released next week by Columbia Records.
Reviewer Tom Moon says that Dylan's songwriting has never been in finer form, and his time away from the recording studio...spent on the road, honing his guitar skills and immersing himself in traditional folk song forms...has paid off.
He says the new album is an exploration of aging and celebrity, and is Dylan's best in years.

 Peter Brötzmann : Tales Out of Time - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
His own compositions here, which account for over half the album, stress the kind of joint front-line melodies and close harmonics that create inner space in a tune -- just check his two-part "Stone Poem" and his "Anticipation of the Next," dedicated to departed bassists Peter Kowald and Wilbur Morris, for evidence.
McPhee's trumpet is the perfect complement and the pair sound like Albert and Don Ayler swinging their chariots toward the heavenly gates.
Likewise, the beautiful art-damaged composition "Pieces of Red, Green, and Blue" (supposedly written about a museum experience he and Brötzmann shared) offers killer honking saxophone phrases that are repeated, striated, warped, turned inside out and back on themselves, and finally exploded into intense and inspired group interplay.

Though most REM fans would say automatic for the people is their best album, i can't choose between "automatic.." and "out of time"!
I may have been a little too critical of Out of Time, but I see that it is unbelievably overrated because of the single that made the band big and commercial.
