Album Description

The Souther, Hillman, Furay Band was one of those supergroup creations of the 70's. Chris Hillman was an original member of The Byrds, Richie Furay was one of the founders of Poco and J.D. Souther worked with Glen Frey of the Eagles. In 1974 they formed this unique group and recorded two albums. Trouble In Paradise rose to # 39 and is making its worldwide CD debut. Wounded Bird Records. 2002.

Supergroup, respectable album.......2007-07-02

I discovered Richie Furay and J.D. Souther purely by accident. I found the original S-H-F Band self-titled debut album in a bargin bin somewhere around 1979. I was familar with J.D.'s association with the Eagles but I had no idea who Richie and Chris Hillman were. After I threw down my $1, I've seeked out every recording from J.D. & Richie(sorry Chris) ever since. After reading the reviews here I felt compelled to respond.

I found this album to be more enjoyable than the first album. I thought the debut lacked direction and proved to be a bit uneven. But 'Trouble in Paradise' sounded more slick with good pop sensibilities. Now normally that would be considered an insult but after the spotty affair of the first album this was a welcome change. Yes this is in the same vain as Loggins & Messina/Poco/Eagles/Jackson Browne. But you can't dismiss the vocal and songwriting capabilities of J.D. Souther & Richie Furay. Thirty-two years later Richie's voice is still unwavering (check out 'The Heartbeat of Love'). I wish I could say the same about J.D. but we may never know since he hasn't recorded anything in 25 years.

If your considering this CD and have not purchased anything from Richie or J.D. start with their solo material(Richie: Heartbeat of Love, J.D: Home by Dawn or You're Only Lonely)and then revisit this.

more country-rock gone soft.......2006-06-04

Finding this album in store without having to order it online was a real treat and despite unenthusiastic reviews of it, I snatched it because it was available. I should have held out for SHF's first album, which is said to be better. JD Souther, Chris Hillman, and Richie Furay should have been the ultimate country-rock superstar band when put together, but this album does not demonstrate anything to that end. The vocal harmonies are as good as one would expect and the musicianship is proficient, but by 1975, the songs have lapsed into '70s California soft-rock lethargy. Certainly, such easy-listening music has its purpose, and I continue to listen to the record for purposes of chilling out, but it has none of the fire of the bands associated with S, H, and F: the Eagles, Flying Burrito Brothers, and Poco. The only song that recalls any of the members' country-rock backgrounds is "Prisoner In Disguise", a laid-back but soulful song with just the right touches of steel guitar, piano, and soaring vocal harmonies. On the title track, a poppy, jazzy number, the band seriously sounds like it's boring itself to sleep. If you're a big fan of any of the three stars, this affords one more opportunity to enjoy their work, especially that of Richie Furay, whose wonderfully twangy country vocals grace the front of just two tracks that aren't even country songs: "For Someone I Love" and "On the Line". One more notable song is "Mexico", a somewhat different song, with an agreeably warm south-of-the-border sound and vocals from JD Souther that are easy on the ears. Otherwise, though I can't yet speak for it, you might better spend your time and money on SHF's first album. See also my review of the "20th Century Masters" compilation of Poco songs.

Prelude to Demise.......2006-04-19

This second, and final, LP by the SHF Band reminds me of Buffalo Springfield's "Last Time Around"...it was good album, but you could almost feel it consisted of separate efforts by each band member, compiled together on one disc. Richie Furay's tunes clearly showed his leanings to Christianity, though they were well done; but only having 2 songs on the album spoke volumes of his interest and/or involvement. Souther, who made no effort to keep the group together, included a previously released song (Prisoner In Disguise) and uses the principals of the Eagles as background singers instead of Hillman and Furay on supporting vocals. Hillman's work stands out the best from my perspective, even though he has one less tune than Souther. The group also misses the work of drummer extraordinaire Jim Gordon, who was replaced after the first SHF album by Ron Grinel (Gordon eventually had some serious legal problems). Terrific sidemen Al Perkins and Paul Harris return, and the album is an easy listen--- great harmonies, country-rock beat and each tune was thematic in its own way. Still,it was clear this LP was the swan song for the group, which had failed to tour much to support its first album, due to an injury to Furay's hand. Furay and Hillman were much more compatible as bandmates, and Hillman has been quoted as saying he got tired of being the middle man between the exuberant goodness of Furay and the brooding, more moody Souther. Lost in the translation of all this was the potential for a great band, if not the supergroup that David Geffen had envisioned in the first place. By the time his hand healed, Furay was focusing on his family, personal life and his commitment to Christianity, and Hillman correctly surmised there was no way to effectively tour without him. All three---Souther, Hillman and Furay, released solo projects for Asylum with little fanfare and monetary success after the band broke up. Look for Souther's "Black Rose", Hillman's "Clear Sailin'" and "Slippin' Away" (what's in a title?) and Furay's triumvirate, "Richie Furay Band", "Dance A Little Light" and his best Asylum work, "I Still have Dreams". All were great in certain aspects, but Furay and Hillman's LPs were supported strongly by former bandmates from their past, somehow giving them more credibility than Souther, who continued to play his Eagle connection a bit too much.

Sounds like a combination of Poco and Loggins and Messina.......2006-01-05

This is a rather short CD, but isn't bad overall. The music sounds like a combination of Poco and Loggins and Messina. The first 2 songs sound especially like L & M. Of course, they would naturally sound somewhat like Poco because this is where Richie Furay came from. If you like pop/rock/country from the 70's you will enjoy this one!

Skip the first two songs and you've got a Perfect Album.......2005-06-29

Considering all the resurgence of attention paid to The Flying Burrito Brothers & Gram Parsons these days some 30 years after they made their 4 or 5 original albums, it's only appropriate that country-rock fans should also use amazon.com to link to the Souther-Hillman-Furay band, forgotten now but well worth the time to re-discover.

Their second outing, "Trouble in Paradise," is really nothing less than a flat-out 1970s country-rock classic if you just skip the first two mediocre tracks. Why they would open their album with the 2 weakest tracks is anybody's guess since most people would not even have the patience to listen beyond it. However if they did they would discover gems, 7 of them, back to back. Not every song is meant to be a hit, some are more meditative and build up their vibe slowly. However, "Mexico" "For Someone I Love" "On The Line" & "Prisoner in Disguise" could have been gigantic hits if given a little bit better production and frequent radio play or if a more widely known band like the Eagles happened to perform them. In their original versions sung by Souther & Furay, these songs are easily as soulful as anything the Eagles could have done with them in their prime.

These songs are the fruits of an easy-going laid-back, totally open-minded but still culturally American way of life, part-hippie, part-cowboy, part-adventurer, part-gentleman. There is subtle philosophy in this album happening all the time just like it did on the early Poco albums. These guys do have ideals they won't sell-out and so did the Eagles in the mid-'70s. Yeah, go ahead and laugh if you want but it's true, the Eagles "Hotel California" or Boston's first album, no matter how commerical they sound, how many million times they got played on AOR radio, do not have one ounce of compromise for the sake of popularity in them. Their highest expression of what they liked at the time just happened to be exactly what their audience liked best.

Conclusion: If you like the Flying Burrito Bros., Buffalo Springfield, Poco & the Eagles or authentic 1970s Country-Rock sounds in general, here's another classic you can add to your collection. Just skip the first two tracks and enter the perfect time warp for another one of those never-to-be-duplicated bygone-era mid '70s So-Cal sound country-rock albums. Because of the enormous success of the Eagles & the overplaying of their music to death, any style of music associated with them may not be hip to listen to anymore but it remains great, it's got quality, soul & class most of the newer artists of today only wish they had. And let's face it, if the Eagles hadn't hit the big time like they did, they would be being re-discovered now just like Parsons/Burrito Bros/Souther Hillman Furay BAnd. When you keep repeating these tracks over & over again because you can't get enough of them, don't say I didn't warn you!

Great, obscure old Berlin!.......2002-08-07

As a cast member on this album, I'm a little bit biased, but it's this is really a chance to get a listen to some really fabulous Berlin. This is Berlin's first Broadway show and has some great gems like "Have the Boys Around Me" and a bunch of great catchy tunes. It's a wide mix of Berlin and if you're a big fan, it's a great chance to hear him in still somewhat developmental stages. A couple songs from this show were later re-worked and put into other shows. It's also has a great feel for the period and shows the influences around the time he was writing: opera (Opera Melody), cowboys (I Gotta Go Back to Texas) and Hawaii (Honolulu Girls). It's a keeper!

Also on this CD is a great tribute to Berlin's counterpoint tunes. It's a mix of all three of the greats: Simple Melody, Old Fashioned Wedding, and Just in Love. Sung individually and then all three together! You won't get that anywhere else.

superb.......2006-03-23

Djavan is an exceptional artist. I have read reviews of his work....some classify his work as jazz...I do not have the knowledge to classify...all I can say is "excellent".

I like to listen to good music, and good transcends classifications. This CD did.

Oh, and I should say that I heard it before I bought it, and then bought it for myself and as a gift for a friend.

So...If I bought two copies, obviously I liked it. Sorry to all who read this review...I'm not an expert, I just loved this CD Oh, and I edited this review a bit....the dvd "Au Vivo" (hope I spelled it right) is wonderful, literally......Chris

Undeniably Delightful Djavan.......2005-10-26

I have been looking for this disc while in Brazil and in the United States. My persistence paid off, as this recording was worth the wait. I have played the entire disc several times each day, but my favorites are 1. Carnival in Rio; 2. Bird of Paradise; and 3. Miss Susanna. Each time I listen to this disc, I am taken back to the land of sand and samba-my beautiful Brazil. Bravo, Djavan, for taking me there!

Djavan is DaMan.......2004-07-24

I discovered Djavan's enticing & entransing music while listening to Jazz living & growing up in Southern Calif. & attending college. This CD is definitely a smart choice for lovers of Brazilian music & world jazz. Djavan is a perfect diamond found among a region of lush beauty & mystery. Tania Maria is another favorite, but let's not get me started going on about her too. I hope you'll be as extremely satisfied with Bird of Paradise as I was when I bought it years ago. I also recommend 'A Twist of Jobime' from the Verve label - they've done a wonderful job there too. Enjoy & Ciao!

beautiful.......2000-02-24

Ah, the music of Brazil! I can't imagine anyone finding this review who isn't in on the secret. This is a fine album, just as the other reviewers said. Also try Ivan Lins or Rosa Passos (if you're lucky enough to find her.)Another great album is Kenny Rankin's Brazilian CD entitled Here In My Heart.

Typically Djavan.......2000-01-30

If anyone wants to get to know Djavan and his music this is the album to get, I got mine almost 10 years back and when I still listen to this album today it is still as refreshing as when I had first bought it. Other recommended albums include 'Malasia', 'Novena', 'Coisa de Acender', 'Bicho Solto XIII'.

Long awaited fourth release in series of reissues of the eary works of the minimalist pioneer and revolutionary composer. These ground-breaking early works laid a foundation for his later masterpieces, 'In C' and 'Rainbow In Curved Air', and his work with tape manipulation, loops and drones is a direct precursor of much of late 20th century electronica, from Can to Steve Reich. Featuring Chet Baker. Standard jewel case.

Customer Reviews:

Incredible Riley.......2006-02-17

i've had the time to really dig into this cd and i am still amazed at these early experiments.Most of them are done from recordings made by a mid sixties Chet Baker (!) and his group. And Riley then starts messing around with these recordings sending Baker to a whole different plateau. There are other tracks which are equally interesting and more in the nature of later works. Overall, a one-of-a-kind experience.Recommended to searchers of original avant, recording experimentation and jazz.
