Customer Reviews
love it.
I reallly enjoyed this album, a lot. I like this album because it kinda has a bluesy, old school vibe that you can kinda nod your head to and kinda dance to. My favorite song would have to be Take a Look at That Guy. It's very catchy and I just wanna dance around my room to this. The song I liked least would probably be Pressure Drop, this sounds kinda bothers me. not quite sure why...
I think Izzy should be appreciated for more things besides the fact that he was a rhythm guitarist in Guns N' Roses.
Good, but not great.
I started with "117 Degrees" and really liked it, so based on all of the reviews for the first one, I bought it. Good, but not great, whereas "117 Degrees" was almost great, easily 4.5 stars. Ju Ju Hounds has some really tight songs, but the flow of the music doesn't match 117 degrees. I'm looking forward to getting more Izzy because he is real.
Izzy's Great Solo Debut!
If you picked this up expecting Guns N' Roses, you may have been disappointed. For the most part, Izzy Stradlin & the Ju Ju Hounds plays less like Guns and more like The Rolling Stones, which were a big influence on Izzy. Izzy's first post-Guns work is considered by many to be a modern blues rock masterpiece. Released within a year of his departure from Guns, it's a very strong first release, and also the easiest to acquire. It has a looseness about it that corporate rock seems to lack. Maybe the relief of leaving the worlds biggest (at the time) and most volatile band allowed for Izzy to write such a laid back album. I don't know. I do know that it's a damn fine effort, and that listening to this makes it pretty clear that Izzy had a profound effect on GNR's sound.
Highlights:
"Somebody Knockin"
"Shuffle It All"
"Train Tracks"
"Cuttin' the Rug"
"Take a Look at the Guy"
