Motorcycle rules!!! Songs of the Heart is the story fo Bud and Irma Akendorf following their first meeting "Can't Take My Eyes off of You" till Bud's passing "My Hand to God." One of the great things about this album is the instrumentation. They use acordion!! And it actually works, it blends in beautifully into the music. The cover of "Can't Take my Eyes..." alone make buying the CD worth it. But the real gems are the two last tracks "When Everyone Wore Hats" and "My Hand to God." This album showed that Daniel Amos really knew how to used their instruments (and this was perfected on MBD.) Bibleland was one of my least favorite Daniel Amos albums (with the exception of few choice songs) and SOTH was an excellent comeback. -- taotp 07-24-2002 08:56 Mark Moderator Registration Date: 03-18-2002 Posts: 9,525 Location: Grand Encephalon - Words have their place but live what you say God can have His way when you hit them with Love Motorcycle is definitely one of my favorite DA CD's. __________________ But never, never pin your whole faith on any human being: not if he is the best and wisest in the whole world. - C.S.

That all I can say is I was wrong and I suck I played that one in the car twice today and each time I was blown away by how good it is. Maybe it's too good! ( ) What can I say? I was wrong. It is a work of genius. It is pretty darn good. You mean you used to think it wasn't? I like "Grace is the smell of rain", "Banquet at the world's end", "Hole in the world", "Motorcycle", and "Wise Acres." Dang, you're right, the whole album is good. I used to think Motorcycle was over-produced and maybe a bit on the bland side. However I just was not giving it the proper chance. It is great all the way through. Maybe too great __________________ 07-24-2002 17:52 BD Ceremonial Kernel Registration Date: 07-16-2002 Posts: 2,294 quote: Originally posted by Dr Rich Maybe too great heh maybe for it's own good!

I don't know half the names of songs and sometimes can't tell exactly whena new song starts. -- taotp 07-25-2002 09:17 Dr. Sticky Mind Peach Registration Date: 03-14-2002 Posts: 111 Location: lexington, ky [/QUOTE] Bibleland is pretty great if ya ask me [/QUOTE] it's funny. the first disc i got by DA was Motorcycle and loved it. Then i picked up Zoom Daddy (not knowing it was DA related--it just had a cool cover and the song titles were crazy) took it home and loved it. Put the two together, discovered that Terry Taylor was heavily involved in both groups and decided that he must be cool. Went out and bought Bibleland and hated it. It's grown on my over the years, but it's still my least favorite album. I think there are some great songs on there, but as a whole the album fails to have a unifying thread for me. I do, however, think it is Ed's best drumming along with MBD. 07-25-2002 09:32 BD Ceremonial Kernel Registration Date: 07-16-2002 Posts: 2,294 quote: Originally posted by Dr. Sticky Went out and bought Bibleland and hated it. are you from dallas? 07-25-2002 11:16 Joey T.
