He has shrugged off MTV's stereotyping of his former band Wall of Voodoo to forge a rich, if stubbornly independent, body of solo work, freely retooling his sound and viewpoint along the way. \u003ci\u003eBlack Diamond\u003c\/i\u003e , his 1995 outing (and one of the best, if sorely under-appreciated, singer-songwriter albums of the 1990s) placed Ridgway in a spare acoustic setting far removed the propulsive synth-sense of \u003ci\u003eThe Big Heat\u003c\/i\u003e , his expressive baritone taking we have new warmth and range. \u003ci\u003eAnatomy\u003c\/i\u003e is an attempt both to move forward and reconcile the various aspects of his previous work. The stirring, elegiac opener \"Mission Bell\" adds depth and dimension to \u003ci\u003eBlack Diamond\u003c\/i\u003e 's tack, while \"Train of Thought\", \"Susie Before Sunrise\" and \"Valerie Is Sleeping\" supplant Ridgway's trademark seamy-side-of-life storytelling with more personal--if oblique--observations, set with confidence against music that freely mixes electronics, acoustic guitar and his plaintive harmonica. Three surprisingly varied instrumental cue listeners that Ridgway now splits his time between song writing and film scoring. Ridgway is a true musical rebel, but one with a rich sense of history and no time for the cheap encumbrances of fashion. --Jerry \u003ci\u003eMcCulley\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 607396601028\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0607396601028\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43478420029699,"sku":"3L-PGGC-KAPM","price":10.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/51nMHejmJ_L.jpg?v=1667166318","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/anatomy","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
