Review: Heart spins magic on new album ‘Red Velvet Car’

Red Velvet Car

MassLive.com: Heart, “Red Velvet Car” (Legacy). 3 ½ stars.

On their first new studio album in six years and their best new album in ages, sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart balance the cool allure of acoustic instrumentation with enough grinding rockers to match the magic of their early years.

Too often overlooked and underappreciated among the mega-metropolitan elite, the Wilson sisters have nevertheless been a hugely influential force on rock and this disc could offer a blueprint to a lot of new acts looking to get their feet off the ground.

Back on a Sony-related label for the first time since 1983, Heart sparkles on cuts that include the scorching “WTF,” the acoustic-based beauty “Hey You,” and the sizzling “Wheels,” all of which fit neatly alongside their earlier classics like “Barracuda” and “Magic Man.”

“WTF” has some particularly touching lyrics, includes the line “The hardest thing you’ll ever learn is what bridge to cross and what bridge to burn,” which was directly inspired by journal writings from the Wilsons’ late mother who passed away about four years ago.

Ann’s voice can still rip a roof off a house and Nancy’s work with producer Ben Mink on instruments such as autoharp, guitar, mandolin, dobro, banjo and more, offer a mesmerizing soundscape throughout the 10-song disc.

Amazon.com MP3: RVC with 2 live tracks and 1 video

Amazon.com also sells music in mp3 format, just like iTunes. The version of Red Velvet Car they’re releasing has some extra’s! “Never” and “Magic Man” live from Seattle 2010  and the video for WTF.

The soundclips are slighty different so there’s new stuff to listen to!

Japanese Red Velvet Car will have a 13th track

Red Velvet Car

Google Translate reveals a September 22nd release of the 13 track CD. “Japanese edition released in the format of the additional 13 songs from the board one more song in Europe!”. This information was found on CDJapan.

Google Translate also tells us that the 13th track is “Listening“. Or at least: that´s what it translates into. It´s unlikely that the translation should actually be “In the Cool”. Thus: this could be the lost 14th song! 13 have been accounted for: 10 standard tracks, “Bootful of Beer”, “Closer to the sun” and “In The Cool”.

UPDATE: I have confirmation “Listening” is a song from the “Red Velvet Car” sessions!

Tracklist according to Google Translate:
