5.0 out of 5 stars Recorded live in the studio, no tricks, just great music, February 4, 2004
This review is from: American Hips (Audio CD)
This review was posted on the TDPRI, a discussion board for people who play Fender Telecaster guitars. It has been edited a bit so it's not as guitar-specific.

I've found that, IMO, Jim is hitting his stride - I think he can be characterized as a "three note guy" (recognizable within the three notes, anywhere in the song.) One of the greatest contributing factors to creating this unique sound is Jim's remarkable talent in his choice of notes, in either the melody or harmony of a song. What comes through loud and clear is that JC understands how music can completely involve and transport the listener. It can make you crazy and bounce off the walls, laugh out loud, or make you cry. The music moves, breathes, with all of its harmonic richness *hanging* in the air. It's all there in American Hips.

**From the liner notes: "All tracks on this album were recorded live in the studio"

JC begins with a theme played in the style close to many of our hearts - pedal...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good combination, July 14, 2004

Phoebus Franca "thebuffer" (San Francisco Bay Area, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: American Hips (Audio CD)
I'd highly recommend this album for fans of Norah Jones. The two on which she sings are wonderful...worth the price of the album. Campilongo's accompaniment is just right. I hope Norah sings on more of his albums! The rest of the record has some good stuff, ranging from hard bluesy rock to spacey Chris Isaaky sounding stuff. In any case, he is a darn good guitar player. Update: I saw him in concert at The Living Room in NYC with Tim Lunzel (bass) and Dan Reiser (drums)....great. If you have a chance to see Campilongo live, you'll see a master who's better live than on record. But the record's sounding even better now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure brilliance, September 9, 2003

This review is from: American Hips (Audio CD)
I completely agree with the editorial review above. Campilongo (a fan of Buchanan) plays with all the emotion, phrasing and nuances one could hope for. Go see him live if you have a chance!
