I call the reviews on music worth buying “Recommendations”. Often times I am mystified by music reviews that never tell me if the music being reviewed is worth buying.  So the whole point of our reviews is to reccomend music that is worth buying (thus the title). 

 Is the entire CD great? Should I only be interested in certain songs? and why?  What other music does the artist compare too. If I like Lynyrd Skynyrd, will I like the Drive By Truckers? 

 Reviews on Music Worth Buying are here to help the music consumer discover new music by giving them reference points such as “If you are into music by  artists A,B, & C, then you might be interested in checking out artist D. We will tell you if the whole CD is worth buying or if you should only be interested in certain songs and why? 

 Whenever possible, I will also review the tactile aspect of the CD. In other words the packaging. Did it come with a lyrics booklet (is one necessary)? Is it digipak or standard jewel case? Did it come with a bonus disc or DVD?  Packaging can have an impact on your decision to purchase

Also, these reviews, recommendations, or write ups, are about my personal musical journey. As I discover music that I want to recommend, I will write about it here. It doesn’t matter if the music just came out today, or came out ten years ago. Because it’s new to me. I will also not shy away from talking about how the music

 

I have a large music collection too so from time to time I might choose to profile an album under the heading of, “One you might have missed”.

 

One thing I won’t do with the older music in my collection is wont write about the Beatles Sgt Pepper album. It may be one of my favorites, but you all know who the Beatles are and they don’t really need me to tell you about them (Unless I have some new perspective that no one else has written about yet….heh, heh! Good luck on that one right?).

 

Feel free to comment back on my write ups and share your thoughts with me. Be sure to click on the “Submit music” page if you are an artist yourself.

 

I hope you find the music reviews/recommendations on Music Worth Buying helpful. I hope you discover new music that will add to the soundtrack of your life and rock your world. I hope that you will purchase your music legally and show support for the songwriters, musicians who make the music possible

 

Thanks for reading
