great solo start for DH
, May 14, 2001Reviewer: dkrycek - See all dkrycek's reviewsDirty Laundry is one of my favorite songs by Don Henley. I Can't Stand Still, Lilah, and Talking To The Moon are also great songs on his first solo album. -
not nearly as good, as in '84 and '89
, May 10, 2001this album, was the last solo album of Henley's that I bought. I purchased it before I got his new album "Inside Job". This first solo album of Henley's is satisfactory,. but he really needed to get down to work to be a great artist. "Dirty Laundry" was the only song that caught my appeal and attention, cause it was groovy, and catchy. None of the other songs jumped out at me. However, the following albums-"Building the Perfect Beast", and "End Of The Innocence", changed my outlook of Henley as a solo artist, he has come a long way since his departure from the Eagles, my favourite album is 2nd album released in '84-"Building the Perfect Beast". If there's any Don Henley album that really rocks, and stands out, Building the Perfect Beast is it. However, if there are some newcomers to Henley's musical talents, Its recomended to get "I Can't Stand Still", ts a bit dull and dreary, but you'll love the '84 album, for sure, and the album from '89, is just as good. ...

Pro Reviews: I Can't Stand Still
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Don Henley's first solo album may still have had the ghost of the Eagles lingering in the corners, but for the most part it showcases his stalwart partnership with producer and songwriter Danny Kortchmar. Lyrically, Henley's songs are a tad weak, but for an inaugural album from a man who had spent most of his career surrounded by multi-talented musicians and writers, on the whole it fairs quite well. His material deals with the hardships of love, the fickleness of the media, and the declining state of education, all induced with a friendly pop sound. The title track, a trouble-in-paradise love song, has Henley pouring his heart out with sugary angst, but is helped along with some avid keyboard work. "Dirty Laundry" is Henley's attack on the shallowness of the network newsperson that peaked at number three on ~Billboard's Top 40. Its bouncy chorus and contagious organ riffs proved that his role as a musician could conform to any style. His social commentary comes into fruition with "Johnny Can't Read," loosely based on the increasing amount of high-school dropouts at the time and helped bolster Henley's reputation as a musician with a concern for pressing issues. Numerous musicians help him out on this album as well, including former Eagles members Timothy B. Schmidt, Joe Walsh, and J.D. Souther; drummer Jeff Porcaro and guitarist Steve Lukather, both from Toto; and even Warren Zevon. Don Henley's adept combination of lyrical wit and thought-provoking staidness begins to materialize on I Can't Stand Still, paving the way for an extremely accomplished solo career. - Mike DeGagne, All Music Guide |
