May 2000 :: Ink Spots :: The Jayhawks (Sean Slone)
SOUND OF SMILE THE JAYHAWKS by Sean Slone The sounds creep in slowly. On track three, it's a weird percussive effect in an otherwise straightforward Jayhawks song, "What Led Me to this Town." Track four: a drum machine kicks off "Somewhere in Ohio." Track six: "Queen of the World" is full-blown electro ...

Pacific Coast Rambler (Koch). Review by Eric J. Iannelli.
MARK OLSON & THE CREEK DIPPERS PACIFIC COAST RAMBLER Koch After a decade of flirting with minor success, Mark Olson left The Jayhawks in 1995, to return to the roots of American music. He is the true indie musician, disinterested in trends and popular appeal. Aided by his wife, the singer Victoria ...

The Best of the Flying Burrito Brothers (A&M/Universal). Review by Hal Horowitz.
... in 1969 and '70, but everyone who did started a band. Certainly the strains of The Eagles, Poco, his compatriot Emmylou Harris, and later, The Jayhawks and Son Volt can be easily heard in these 12 tracks. If those artists are already in your collection, you simply cannot be without something from the ...

... on the album closing "Just to Know You," as well, albeit in his much more nasal, less interesting voice. Elsewhere the duo sounds a bit like the Jayhawks on "Lookin' Down," and "So Alone" comes off like a hybrid of REM, Matthew Sweet and the Hollies. And "Comin' to An End" shows a debt to the Byrds ...

A Man Under the Influence (Bloodshot). Review by Sean Slone.
... CD. "I like her better when she walks away," Escovedo sings. "Follow You Down" is a delicate number with violin and cello that could pass for a Jayhawks song circa Hollywood Town Hall. Escovedo trades guitar licks with Eric Heywood, Mitch Easter, Stamey, and Joe Eddy Hines on the impressive glam rocker ...

Here's Luck (Palm Pictures). Review by Jeff Montgomery.
... into the y'alternative or Americana category, but Here's Luck shows quite a few departures from the catchy folk-rock of a typical Wilco/Son Volt/Jayhawks clone. There's a slightly odd and discordant edge to many of the songs, whether it's due to interesting drum effects ("Stonewall"), vocal effects ...

April 1999 :: Music V-Z :: Kelly Willis (James Mann)
... potential that its failure is more disappointing than is really fair. First off, the songs. The songs are great. Featuring music co-written with the Jayhawks' Gary Louris, and covers of Nick Drake ("Time Has Told Me"), Paul Westerberg ("They're Blind" from the Replacements' Don't Tell a Soul album) ...

March 1998 :: Music C-E :: Richard Davies (Jeff Montgomery)
... , there are touches of lots of people in Davies' mixture. The musical similarity at times to Vic Chesnutt, Alex Chilton, Grant McClennan, and the Jayhawks is readily apparent. But somehow, Davies is able to acknowledge his similar '60s pop and '70s rock traditions with a nod and move on to something ...

Telegraph (Safe House). Review by James Mann.
... . The songs here are good, the playing fine (particularly mandolin picker Tom Scanlan) but there's no getting around Grimm's voice. Toss in a bit of Jayhawks-sounding electric guitar, and this is alt-country by the numbers. Cuts like "Shoot Down That Monkey" and "Telegraph" stray a bit farther a field ...

Custom/10 (self-released). Review by James Mann.
... as an emotive guitar picker. The opening cut, "W.I.P.," stumbles and struts not unlike a swampier Marah or perhaps a hyper-charged version of The Jayhawks. The songs quickly find grooves that might appeal to the jam band crowd, without resorting to the dreaded 15-minute per cut law that such music sometimes ...
