Description
Fool, once again showcases Joe Jacksons incredible musical diversity and unique artistic vision. If the album had a theme, it would be Comedy and Tragedy and the way theyre intertwined in our lives. It begins with the powerfully mysterious Big Black Crowd, which foreshadows a collection that is impossible to describe in one word but undoubtedly musically and lyrically powerful and touchingly beautiful. The striking Fabulously Absolute shows a different side of the record with Jackson portraying an almost snarky attitude in his voice and the music showing a very melodic drive. Despite what the title may suggest, none of Jacksons remarkable songwriting, although multi-faceted, does in any way sound foolish. It is rather a sense of masterful craftsmanship and intent that defines Fool. The listener will find jazz, classic and of course pop influences that fuse to make an artistically valuable as well as entertaining experience.
Includes Bonus 7 Single.
