O'Keefe, Danny

Global Blues
Sealed 1979 Original. “Danny O'Keefe Sure Picked An Appropriate Title For His 1979 Release, With Many Of His Songs Depicting Not Only The Current State Of The World As In "Save The Whales" And "Atlas," But Also Life In General And Human Relationships. His Lyrical Wit Is Just As Amazing As It Has Always Been, But The Real Surprise Is To Be Found In The Arrangements Of The Individual Songs. "Livin' In The Modern Age" & "The Jimmy Hoffa Mem. Bldg. Blues" Dates Back To The Pre-Rock Era, With Jazz Leanings Making It Sound Like Something Coming Out Of Crescent City. The Title Track Combines Blues, Rock And Jazz In A Highly Original Way And On "The Street" O'Keefe Uses A Caribbean Rhythm Track As Well As Synthesizers And Howling Guitars. The Result Is Fabulous And The Lyrics About Streetlife Turns This Song Into A Personal Highlight. The Rest Of The Song Selections Have The Same High Quality, Both In Terms Of Lyrics And Music. Cuts Like "(Keep Your) Back To The Wall," Square Sun" And "Save The Whales" Show How Well Danny O'Keefe Masters Different Styles. The Album's Final Song "Atlas" Is A Fitting End To This Song Cycle - And The Decade.” Søren Matzen Andersen.
