Title: Elevator Music
Review: I loved Ah Via Musicom. It displayed great musicianship, and the guitar tone we all love. Bloom gets the tone back, but this album is very hit-and-miss as far as songwriting. There are definitely some good tracks; Eric starts out strong; most of the songs in the prelude section are great. The last 2/3s of the album, however, sounds like elevator music. Particularly bad are 'From My Heart', 'Your Sweet Eyes', and 'Sunnaround You'. Mr. Johnson has never had a very good singing voice, and the sort of simple and obvious songwriting in these songs makes them even harder to listen to.
Is the review positive or negative?
