Reviews:
Another Great Rafferty Egan Compilation
This is yet Another Great Rafferty Egan Release. It is to Bad they did not remain together longer as a Duo, because with each release they just Got Better. It is about time they Released these three Classic Albums on cd, now if they would just Release Joe Egans two Solo albums as well on cd.
Steeler's Wheels; Ferguslie Park
I owned the album, when released, in the 1970's and have waited a long time to own it and the other Steeler's Wheel releases on CD. Joe Egan and Gerry Rafferty we extremely good song writers and performers both together and individually. Owning their works, as Steeler's Wheel, is one of the high points in my music collection. This album/CD was/is one of my personal favorites.
A Rafferty/Egan Masterpiece
The sad thing is that Stealers Wheel here in America usually means "Stuck in the Middle with You," which is what the "oldies" stations seem to play ad nauseam, as if that were the only song they ever recorded.
For my money, just about any track on Ferguslie Park eclipses "Stuck in the Middle" (perhaps that is because I've heard it hundreds of times beyond endurance).
Something else should also be said: Joe Egan is all the singer-songwriter that Gerry Rafferty is, though he never went on to the same illustrious post Stealers career as did Rafferty. Listen to "Star" and "Wheelin'," or "Nothing's Gonna Change My Mind." Why Egan didn't go on to better things boggles the mind.
I know that "timeless" is an overused phrase, but this album (yes, I still think of these records as albums) is just that. Buy it, even if you've never heard of Stealers Wheel before.
And for the fans, the Lemon reissue is a well put together package, with very good artwork and liner notes including full lyrics.
Enjoy.
Everything Didn't Work Out Fine
I had a similar experience as "Coon from Alabama" did when I played my CD copy of "Ferguslie Park," and found that it did not contain single version of "Everyone's Agreed Everything will Turn Out Fine" as advertised. So I reccommend you update that description. That being said, it was good to finally hear this album again after so many years, especially "Steamboat Row." When Universal finally gets around to re-issuing Stealer's Wheel in U.S., hopefully they will include the complete catalogue.
One of the greatest pop/rock albums
Gerry Rafferty & Joe Egan made some beautiful, clever & fun music in their sadly short run as Stealers Wheel. While I personally rank all 3 albums pretty much on the same level, this one pokes out a bit ahead since it has 2 more songs than the other 2 ten-track albums. =)
Gorgeous harmonies, sweet & catchy melodies.. and fun joy-for-the-ears arrangements.. it is a tremendous shock that this album has been unavailable on CD for a decade (and previously only on a Japanese-only CD which was impossible to find).. and this group continues to be overlooked.
From the Beatlesque "Star" to the beautiful "Over My Head", and chilling "Who Cares?"... all the way to the awesome finale "Everyone's Agreed That Everything Will Turn Out Fine".. EVERY song is a pop/rock gem. If you love Gerry Rafferty's music, or Stealers Wheel's hit "Stuck In the Middle With You", then you can't go wrong with this album.
HIGHLY recommended!
