The Pretenders had its mojo
working when Viva El Amor
was recorded. The album is a
good compilation of 12 songs
that are groovy.
Chrissie Hynde’s flawless and
powerful vocals are backed by
the equally powerful rhythms of
guitarist Adam Seymour and
drummer Martin Chambers,
blending instrumental and vocal
music together for an upbeat but
not quite “pop” album.
"Popstar" is probably the
album’s best track; the song is
infectious enough to have listen
ers tapping in time or dancing
along.
However, when the
Pretenders stray from faster
songs, they tend to fall flat.
“Dragway 42” seems to slow
down the whole album and the
listener down. It is simply better
to skip the track and stay with
what works.
However, give “Samurai” and
“Biker” a shot; their slow, hyp
notic beats make them the only
slow Pretenders’ songs that actu
ally work. f
On the whole, the album is a
solid release for the Pretenders;
just stay away from the slow,
“emotional” songs — unless you
are suffering from insomnia.

Mac McAnally
Word of Mouth
CD Courtesy of
Dreamworks Records
There are few words that can
be used to describe this album.
Most of them start with the let
ter “s,” and due to common
decency will not be printed.
It is hard to categorize
McAnally’s music. It is part soft
rock, part country, part jazz and
mostly crap.
McAnally tries to blend too
many types of music together
leaving an unbearable finished
product.
If Kenny G played country
music, this is what it would
sound like.
The only people that
McAnally could find to enjoy his
music are students at the Helen
Keller school for the deaf and
blind.
In the first song of the album,
“Looking Back,” McAnally
almost draws the listener into
the album with decent music
flowing from his acoustic guitar,
but then he starts singing and
just ruins everything.
Not that he is a bad singer,
but his singing just detracts from
the music.
The only bright spot on the
album is the first few seconds of
the first song.
McAnally’s lyrics sound like
something a seventh grader
would slip into the locker of a
girl he has a crush on to try and
impress her.
This album is just bad, hope
fully McAnally has a day job.
