Album Notes Collective Soul: Ed Roland (vocals, guitar); Ross Childress, Dean Roland (guitar); Will Turpin (bass, background vocals); Shane Evans (drums). Additional personnel: Jerry Miller, John DiPuccio (violin); David Chappel (viola); Steve Sidgursen (cello); Janet Clippard (acoustic bass); Luis Enrique (percussion); Becky Russell, William Brown, Bertrum Brown, Jackie Johnson (background vocals). Recorded at Criteria Studios, Miami, Florida; Kiva Studios, Memphis, Tennessee; Streeterville Studios, Chicago, Illinois; Granny's Studio, Reno, Nevada. This self-titled album from the group that surprised even itself with the success of its premiere release, HINTS, ALLEGATIONS & THINGS LEFT UNSAID, represents Collective Soul's first complete manifestation as a cohesive band. COLLECTIVE SOUL is a true rock and roll effort, full of hard-edged, rhythmic guitar work, tempered by dips into the musicians' reserve of metal, blues and radio-friendly pop. Ed Roland's songs are simple and strightforward, yet searching--as in "The World I Know," an unpretentious observation of good and evil, laden with questions like "Has the sweet breeze blown?/Has all the kindness gone?" Vigorous riffs, a full-bodied '70s radio-rock sound, and an essentially optimistic outlook on life characterize this record, though there is the occasional surprise like the final track, "Reunion," a contemplative, gospel choir-backed blues tune.

Reviews  Collective Soul - (CD 1995) I'm an avid Collective Soul fan so I'm pretty bias, however it's an excellent CD. I saw them live several times and they alway put on a good show and play to the bitter end. For those who are fans of Collective Soul, this is a really good CD from their early years once they'd gotten popular. Most folks are familiar with the song "Gel" and it's on this CD as well as several of there other hits. This is definitel a good buy. Review ID: 10000000008683825 Was this review helpful?
