STOOOOOPID AND CORNY!!!!.......2004-11-16
What the devil was Stanley thinking here?
OK, I could understand going more in a saleable R&B direction but MAN, this was over-the-top corniness of the worst kind, bombastic pseudo-rock/funk arrangements mixed with lame, pointless corny cutting-up and Stanley doing a rather bad parody of himself. And what's up with that idiotic cover with Stanley on a STONE MOTORCYCLE!!???
I have to admit I lost a lot of respect for Stanley as an artist after hearing this abomination, (and it wasn't until hearing 1989's "If This Bass Could Only Talk" that my respect for Stan as a musician came back in spades). Unfortunnately, "Rocks Pebbles and Sand" was only the beginning of the long 1980's Schlock-Fest that Stanley would unleash (no doubt at the behest of his record company).
Skip this turkey altogether, unless you are a masochist at heart.
WEIRD!!.......2003-08-20
Stanley Clarke and a "new" band attempt to create some kind
of funk/rock hybrid-that is one side funk,another of hard rock and overall "Rocks,Pebbles And Sand" doesn't make that much musical sense.The opener "Danger Street",a snarling,eccentrically
sung hard rocker and the thumping tital cut are very interesting
but only the George Duke collaberation of "We Supply",a masterful
Brothers Johnson-like slab of hard funk really makes a lasting
impression ammong this muck!One reviewer called this album no form and all content and that somes it up-bomastic arrangements and instrumentation making up for good compositional skills.

Rocks, Pebbles and the "Man".......2002-06-06
I thought this album was an interesting transition for Stanley Clarke, because most of it leans towards hard rock rather than jazz fusion. (perhaps he was inspired to do this recording after touring with Keith Richards and the "New Barbarians") Whatever Stanley's inpiration was, it worked! All the cuts are great. My personal favorites are: "Danger Street", "All Hell Broke Loose" (Both great examples of chord playing on the bass) The super funky, "We Supply" (Featuring Louis Johnson) and "The Story of a Man and a Women / A Fool Again" (An interesting and entertaining medley) One thing this album proved about Stanley, is that when you're a virtuoso musician and composer, you can pull off darn near anything. Taking musical risks like "Rocks Pebbles and Sand" and succeeding, undoubtedly helped give him the confidence and ability to eventually become one of the finest film scorers of this generation. He already was considered one of if not the greatest bass player of all time! Stan, thanks for pushing the envelope musically, it truly paid off.
