3 out of 5 stars The guitar player for the non-guitar player.......2007-07-12

You ask someone who doens't play guitar...."Hey you..yeah the guy who doesn't play guitar. Who is the best guitar player?" He'll probably say "aww man... Hendrix...( if you're a half decent guitar player you know that Hendrix isn't that great, he just started a revolution.) or he'll pick Eric Clapton (same deal as Hendrix, he isn't techincally very good but, he can make his guitar sing), or the always popular Santana (guy knows one scale and one key)....... What's special about these guys? One thing..... they make their guitars sing. An average person doesn't want to listen to Steve Vai blasting away at 1,000 mph, they like music. That's where Hoey comes in.

Techincally speaking, he's okay. He doesn't step out of the penatonic scale that much, except for a few modes here or there. He's pretty clean, but when compared to Paul Gilbert or Andy Timmons he doesn't add up. What he does is makes music people like to listen to. It doesn't change keys a thousand times, it just has a beat and good melody you can sing. That's why I like Gary Hoey. So for you reviewers who blast Hoey for his techincal mishaps, I'm right there with you, but I'd rather listen to Hoey than Vai any day.

4 out of 5 stars Nice mixture of styles.......2006-03-07

I like how this guy blends the Satch tone with edgey blues-rock and 70's metal. I think this blend makes him pretty unique, rather than "not bringing anything new to the table". After the first few seconds of listening, it sounded new to me, and I've listened to just about every artist and style of music you can imagine. The X Factor is that part of the music that makes you want to get up and rock the hell out. This album has it.

5 out of 5 stars Damn near perfect........2005-12-14

I first saw Gary play on the headbangers ball-b-q in 93. He was in the background jammin out.My only focus was on his music. Not the goings on around him. I bought the CD shortly after that appearance. I own everyone of Gary's disc and they all have their own endearing quality to them. I do not play any guitar on any other musical instruments for that matter. I just a guy who likes good rock n roll and quite a few other genres. So even though I'm not a guitar snob I am a music snob. I can tell you that this CD was amazing to hear in 93 and is still a total joy to listen to again and again. I had to repurchase this CD recentley because I wore out my original copy. Satch, Vai, and Johnson are really good. But my favorite is Gary.

5 out of 5 stars 6 strings + 12 fingers= this.......2005-07-14


Ahhh, the mid-to-late 80's. Lame bands (mostly) and great musicianship (mostly). Thankfully, Gary followed in Satriani's footsteps and flew solo. This guy is great, and so are all of his albums. If you get a chance to see him live, GO!

3 out of 5 stars Okay, but not the best........2005-06-23

This is a pretty mediocre CD. A couple songs get a little laborious, but overall it was okay. I got this after getting HoHoHoey and liking it. I was curious to hear what his original stuff was like. The only real problem I have with it is that Gary kind of sounds like a cheap Joe Satriani knock off. A few of his riffs are tired and bland, and Motown Fever just seems like he's trying a little hard to expand his musical styles. But its a very noble effort indeed, I will give him that. The high points the album are "Hocus Pocus," "Texas Son," the slide intro to "Deep South Cafe," and the very very nice acoustic stylings on "Jamie." I really suggest trying Joe Satriani first if you havent already. Try Surfing With The Alien or Anthology, and I would also try HoHoHoey, cause its really nice to have around the holidays when people tell you to put on some holiday music and you dont want to put on any traditional junk.

5 out of 5 stars Interesting mini-album for fans.......2003-08-23

The song "Animal instinct" is here in well known album version (from "Bury the hatchet". The real treasure here is "Paparazzi on mopeds".quite depressing heavy song about the death of Lady Diana caused by the rutless Paparazzis.Dolores vocals are realy haunting.it is sad that that great song didn't find a place on Regular album. the two live tracks are nice too, but they are nothing special.get it for rare "Paparazzi on mopeds".

5 out of 5 stars It is a lovely thing. The Animal,The Animal instinct...........2000-06-18

This cd-single features four songs of the cranberries.The first one is Animal instinct;this is one of the best songs of the cranberries.It is very lighthearted and has beautiful lyrics.The second song is Paparazzi on Mopeds;this is a harder song and has as subject the death of Lady Diana.This song is sad but has power and good lyrics("They even watched her die").The third song on it is a live version of Ode to my family,recorded in Hamburg.This isn't a really good live version.Especially at the beginning Dolores' voice is completely out of tune,but the rest of the song is nice.The fourth song is also from the Hamburg concert and is called Salvation(One of my favorites).This live version is much cooler than the studio version.It has a lot of enthousiasm and is sang very strong.
