Dvd was a bootleg copy, grainy around the edges like it was filmed from TV. Jacket cover was not the same either
Please - find the monster and kill the agony
Get ready for lots of product plugs for Mr Spillane's favorite brand of beer, and ease back into your chair for hours of sheer boredom. Too many characters and no compelling story are the deathknells of this dreadful book. I liked Mako's tough guy image, and I liked his Caribbean sidekick, who keeps calling him "sar", but I didn't like the rambling nature of the book. Now, onto a book I can enjoy...
THIS IS NOT MIKE HAMMER'S MICKEY SPILLANE
Unfortunately,this is not a good book. For those of us who are long time Mickey Spillane fans, it is a major disappointmnet. That hard, crudely eloquent writing is missing. The tough guy main character is not an angry, slow moving guided missile, seeking his target and smacking down anyone who gets in his way.The tough guy in this book spends all his time drinking beer and dropping hints that he used to be a vengeful guided missile. The story is flat. The pacing is slow. The characters are just not very interesting. Spillane has a new Mike Hammer novel coming out in the summer of '04. Let's hope he is back to his old form for that one. He missed badly with "Something's Down There."
Different and Excellent
When I got this CD I knew that it was going to be different from other GU releases, but I didnt expect it to be so different. The sounds on the first CD are raw, and not electronic at all, still, the groove is amazing. CD2 is excellent, picking up on the tribal groove of the first CD, and becoming seriously hipnotic and deep by its end. This is truly a first class album. Cant wait to see Danny play live someday.
I would't go there if I were you...
Maybe Danny didn't have the copyrights to spin real records on this album, I don't know, but it's just background music. The first half starts out alright, sounding vaguely tropical and new-yorican, lifting a style from NY Club Body and Soul. And there are some clever samples...but they never go anywhere. If you want vocals, there are NONE except a bad remix of Keep in Touch Body-to-Body. I happen to like vocal-less techno house, but this doesn't cut it. The second CD is much worse. This is soulless Danny being heavily marketed to new-school clubbies tweaking under headphones with no history to ground them.
