Carnaby Street marks the long awaited return to the original one of the living legends of glam rock from the 60/70, Michael Des Barres. And since then what can be said is that this is a return in large, creating one of the most spectacular drives this year. The British musician is surrounded by elements of high-class technique which allows to create and run themes, mostly short yes, but where there is time to fit a myriad of delightful details of composition and execution of instruments. Stylistically this is a hard rocking blues from a great feeling and sensuality and a hard rock full of attitude and energy. You're My Pain Killer is a sensational opening that fits in first class but that soon after the title song speeds up to a dose of unbridled rock hard and throbbing! Southerners also touches appear here on Route 69 and My Baby Saved My Ass and least expected a joyful sounds and cool summer in a cross between a Beach Boys and some reggae rhythms, as in To Heartchae From Cloud 9. But the theme that emerges is by your feeling regarding Please Stay, a mix of blues and gospel ballad with truly great and create a chilling sense of spirituality. All this helps make a hard Carnaby Street truly desirable, not only by great melodies and great songs, but also by the diversity presented. A fantastic album, full of rhythm, groove and sensuality. And where there is no lack of those elements essential to a great rock record: the Hammond, piano Honky Tonk, attitude and provocation. Return amazing, Mr. Des Barres! Brutal!
