Title: Mason falls victom to 80's rock
Review: Most good rock musicians lost their roots in the 80's and compromised their work by using synthesizers and all kinds of terrible machines. Mason almost falls victom to this as hard as his old Traffic friend Winwood. This album betrays Dave Mason's ability and everything he tried to portray as a young artist. When i listen to this album my ears cringe at Mason's use of a drum machine. (He should just have called up his old friend Jim Capaldi. Although maybe not as popular as Winwood and Mason, Capaldi has never forgot his "rock" roots.) Compared to Mason's Traffic stuff or Alone Together, this seems like a different artist. If you are a fan of Mason's earlier stuff, dont even bother to listen to a sound sample of Two Hearts. If you are a fan of Mason's later 70's stuff, listening to a sound sample may not give you an earache. However, this album is really meant for a 80's fan who enjoys listening to machines rather than actual music.
Is the review positive or negative?
