PROOF OF MICK JAGGER"S SUPERIORITY.......2005-09-01

This is very like a Stones album with a stand-in singer and songwriter. Lovely to hear Keith's playing, as always, and his licks and sense of groove dominate the album. That part is nice, as is some great playing from Mick Taylor and Chris Spedding. The stand-in bit, however, is not so nice. Phillips voice is weak, and not in a junkie-romantic way like K or Johnny Thunders, just weak like a California folk singer who wandered out of the shallows. Unfortunately, he didn't wander out of the shallows in his songwriting: these songs are juvenile, forced with awkward rhymes and mawkish sentiments, imbued with a horrible kind of professional insincerity that the Stones would never have allowed for themselves.

Yes, maybe some people shouldn't do drugs.......2004-06-29

I've mentioned in reviews here and there that Kent, my guitar player runs a CD store. When I got married for the fourth time a couple of years ago (maybe it was the fifth, I'm not real sure about a couple of those years in New York), he gave me this cd, with a "wedding card" (really!) with...John & Yoko on it, the caption being "War is over if you want it." "Well, have you listened to it?" I asked him. "Yeah," he replied,"maybe about two or three tracks: I DARE you to listen to more." He was right, and I'm not going to be snide and babble,"the bigger they are..." However, there IS a great picture on the back cover, with Mr. Phillips and Mr. Richards, in an advanced state of, um, "bliss," stretched out on a bed of some sort. With a teensy felt-tip pen, Kent drew a line se of Mr. Phillips' mouth, saying "good heroin, Keef." And there was a line, sw of Mr. Richards' mouth with the only logical reply,"yup." That picture tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about "Pay Pack & Follow."

Really worth the wait.......2003-06-01

Like some reviewers on this page, I had been warned away from this cd. After so many years, I told myself, did I really have to go in search of more "perfect" recordings by Keef. Besides, I had never liked the Mamas and the Papas, and aside from Keef's shared drug habit, I couldn't understand why he would have hooked up with Phillips. Boy, did I turn out to be lost on this one. It's really worth the listen. In fact, it will probably stay in your cd player for days. The music is well put together, and Phillips voice is such a wonderful compliment to Richards's earthy rythms. Although many of my Stones albums have made it to the discard pile, this goes next to Keef's solo efforts and a few select bootlegs. It's gritty.

Mining those Nuggets.......2003-01-14

"Pay Pack & Follow" was recorded from 1973-1979 and produced by Keith Richards and Mick Jagger. While this is not a lost Rolling Stones record any more than it is a lost Mamas & the Papas record, it a worthwhile mix of sounds that fans of both bands will find interesting. Phillips was always a bit enigmatic, the creative recluse whose writing projected him into the spotlight, but who was comfortable to share the limelight. "Mr. Blue" cooks with Richards' engaging guitar and Richards & Jagger backing up with vocals. "She's Just 14" is bluesy track about a worldly teen. "Each kiss is a sigh; each sigh lifts me right off the ground" John sings on "Wilderness of Love" that has a nice chorus. "Backstage at the ballet it's a bore; I cannot give the ladies anymore," John sings on the Stonesy ballad "Oh Virginia." One of the best songs is "Sunset Boulevard" with its folky melody and lyrical complexity. "Pussycat" doesn't work so well for me, a song with a schmaltzy melody about a guy who likes girls from a strip club. "Zulu Warrior" is a great rocker with a somewhat self-conscious lyric about the "African giant." "Dread ain't nothing to smile about," John sings on "Very Dread" with Chris Spedding's great guitar work. The CD concludes ironically with "2001," written 24 years earlier as a distant look into the future wishing that all loved ones would still be with us, being the year John Phillips passed from us. The songwriting is not uniformly good, but the performances are excellent on this wonderful timepiece. Enjoy!

I at a loss to understand the praise for this release. It should have remained lost...
