5 out of 5 stars Review from a huge Gin Blossoms fans ponit of view.......2002-12-16

When I first heard Jesse was putting out a solo cd I thought great, a cd that will hopefully sound just like the Gin Blossoms. I was completely wrong, and i'm glad. It took me awhile to get this cd. The first song you notice is "Cant Go Down". It is the closest song to a GBs track you will hear. The cd is one of the best to come out in 2002. I bought it in April and saw the Gin Blossoms play a week later. Best...Year...Ever! Every song on this cd will stick in your head. The songwriting sets this cd apart from mainstream radio rock. Just buy it and keep listening to it. It grows on you.

5 out of 5 stars Gin Blossoms Guitarist Shows His Unique Talent.......2002-11-15

For many people, when they think of the Gin Blossoms, they think of lead singer Robin Wilson, or the late guitarist Doug Hopkins, who wrote some of their most mesmerizing tunes and lyrics before alcoholism and depression led to his unfortunate suicide. But in many ways, Jesse Valenzuela is the guiding force behind the band's success; one of the founding members of the band who has been able to find critical acclaim with his songwriting and his top-notch guitar playing skills. When the Blossoms broke up for several years, Valenzuela flourished on his own as a producer with some of the biggest names in music. And he's co-written songs with people whose names are the "Who's Who" of music. Here, in his retro-name-sounding solo debut, Jesse Valenzuela proves once and for all what a talented musician he is. The songs he's written range from Gin Blossom-like rockers ("Can't Go Down") to beautiful ballads ("Damaged Goods"), to country-sounding attention grabbers ("Broken Hearted Kind.)

Jesse Valenzuela's vocals are convincing and do convey the feeling of the songs. But it's his lyrics that really are worthy of attention. Valenzuela shows a certain skill and finesse with songwriting that puts him on a par with some of the best pop song writers America has turned out. Listen to "Andale Pues" or "Company" and argue that Valenzuela is not in the same class as Hart or Hammerstein.

While the Gin Blossoms have re-united, and as of this writing are in the process of working on a new record, this solo album by Jesse Valenzuela shows that a solo career is hardly out of the question for him. And, it will also help give a profound respect for his songwriting and guitar playing with the Blossoms.

Hands down, this is my favorite album of 2002! Try it and there's no doubt you'll feel the same way about it.

Album Description

Brasco is, well, a rock band, albeit one that favors minor-key songs with lots of chord changes. The action centers on frontman Kevin Aldridge's songs and high-register vocals, which might reasonably be compared to Roy Orbison, Neil Young without the warble, or even, uh, Raul Malo. This is an EP from Fort Worth's Brasco. They have been described as one of the most depressing rock bands around Texas. Many compare this record to a Radiohead, Joe Henry, Neil Young cocktail. Enjoy!
