Couldn’t tell you what Isaak’s been up to since then except for some cameo film appearances. Who remembers “Wicked Game”? Great video. The folks behind the June 28 Memorial Park Concert this morning announced that Chris Isaak is opening for Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul for their big event. The Lupines stands tall as being among the best of them, alongside David Nance Group and Those Far Out Arrows. We’re in an era when there just aren’t many indie bands performing in Omaha anymore and instead, garage / psych-rock bands are in the forefront. They rolled out a couple new songs, which I hope means there’s a new album waiting in the wings. But I’ve never seen them perform any other way. On the other hand, The Lupines were completely uncaged and on fire Friday night. Lead guitarist Matt Wellendorf, however, soared, and I was reminded again of Jackson Browne to the point where I kinda/sorta wanted them to cover “Running on Empty.” The songs were still there, but… you couldn’t quite hear the keyboards, the vocals were at times soft and the drums hid behind the bass. There was no way the band was going to replicate it in O’Leaver’s.Īnd they didn’t. Instead, their album has a peaceful easy feelin’ style as if recorded in the ‘70s with one of the great producers like Bill Szymczyk at the knobs - it’s a true studio document that sounds like a perfectly balanced weapon. Left is West isn’t in the same incidiary category as Carsinogents. For example, Omaha’s The Carsinogents were mercurial on stage, and while their recordings rocked, the albums never rocked nearly as intensely as when they were trying to burn down Sokol Underground. It’s usually the other way around - bands rarely capture the ferocity of their live set on their recordings. So well done, in fact that it eclipsed the band’s live performance last Friday at O’Leaver’s.
#BEST OF CHRIS ISAAK MEGA HOW TO#
A friend who listened to the new Left is West album How to Be Happy Without Even Trying described it as sounding “expensive.” I’m not sure exactly what he meant by that other than the recording quality was impeccable, which it is.
