Album Notes
Personnel: Adrian Belew (vocals, various instruments); David Bowie (vocals); The Prophet Omega (spoken vocals); Mike Barnett (bass); Willem Van Kruysdijk, Mies Barnett, Dree Van Beeck, Ellen Gieles (percussion).
Adrian Belew seems obsessed with the sounds and sensual evocations of the deep jungle, and bent on translating this primal vocabulary into his own sonic wildlife. Fortunately for music fans, Belew's avant tribal leanings have led to some of the more adventurous pop of the '80s and '90s. YOUNG LIONS is another in this idiosyncratic wizard's fine series of solo recordings, and the title track is a vintage Belew tramp through underbrush, African drums, and guitar solos in the shapes of birds and elephants.
What makes Adrian Belew's albums so enjoyable is the element of stylistic surprise. Singalong pop rears its head in "Looking For a U.F.O." and the fluid melodies of "Small World," while "Phone Call From the Moon" glosses loopy, stratospheric lounge jazz. High marks go to the faithful rendering of the King Crimson original "Heartbeat," and the David Bowie/Belew collaboration "Pretty Pink Rose," a driving, dramatic rocker that recalls Bowie's heyday and is a fine late addition to his LOW/HEROES/LODGER-era catalogue. While not Belew's most essential release, YOUNG LIONS combines the compositional range and technical excellence that makes his work so rewarding.
