Feast Yer Ears...

Dvoodoo

Glad this finally showed up here, as this has been hard to find stateside, just ask Chuck! There are glimmers of greatness in the grooves of many of the songs, and fans should definitely check out "Hungry Town" and "What It Takes". "Longshot Lullaby" is a classic emotion filled number that ruled his live shows for a longtime, while the muted "Let's Burn This Firetrap Down" recounts some wasted daze and knights at a long lost local SF watering hole. This release was produced by Steve Berlin (Los Lobos) and as reviewer "Smoking Steve" already sez here, they "spent too much studio time and money on this". Made during a transitional mid 90's period for Prophet, the production was a bit too tame/mainstream for my tastes, but deserves to be heard.

Second only to Balinese Dancer in Chuck's catalog - he has said that they spent too much studio time and money on this, but the extra effort shows. If you've heard his new stuff you know that there is a lot of filler... but this one - in a just world it would have made him a star after Balinese Dancer put him on the map. Love this one too.
