The Stone Alone didn't cut all ties with his famous friends when he took a hike from the Rolling Stones. Indeed, Anyway the Wind Blows's star-studded cast includes fellow Stones alumni Mick Taylor, Eric Clapton, Albert Lee, and Chris Rea. And those are just the guitarists! The big names are along to bring some flash to Wyman's apparently fluid regular crew, which includes Georgie Fame, Beverley Skeete, and Geoff Grange on vocals. The lot of 'em tackle a handful of Wyman originals and an informed collection of blues-based covers, including tunes from Willie Dixon, Nellie Lutchor, and J.J. Cale. The result is an expertly played collection with the feel of a jam session at an upscale pub. --Steven Stolder

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars At last, a good Bill Wyman CD!.......2003-01-30

Leaning on his experience with Willie and the Poor Boys, Bill assembles the best musicians from his rolodex and covers R&B, jazz and pop standards going back to the 30s. Bill is a music FAN in the greatest sense and he knows no genre boundary. This music is well executed and Bill keeps his singing to cuts that his limited vocal range can handle, and his singing has improved from earlier solo efforts. You won't even notice. Highly recommended for anyone who loves music from a time when music was music.

4 out of 5 stars highly entertaining.......2002-07-22

this cd has a sound and feel different than that presented in the mainstream music currently presented. i enjoy each song and how it differs from the the one before and after it, yet it flows together beautifully.i have recommend this cd to all who will listen to me.noone was disappointed.

2 out of 5 stars Nothing memorable.......2000-04-15

Considering some of the talent here, this album is so laid-back it barely registers. It's slick, it's polished, but there's not a lot of soul here. Mick Taylor is barely audible, Clapton's been far bluesier elsewhere, and the vocals don't have a lot of passion. For a Wyman project that rocks, check out Willy and the Poorboys, with Jimmy Page, Paul Rodgers, Chris Rea, and a lot livelier supporting cast. This was a nice idea, but it's too much of a misfire to justify spending full price on.

5 out of 5 stars A letter to man who has everything, especially feel........2000-04-09

Bill, When I say you have feel, I mean...w'll get'm. Bill,let's talk about your tone. (Sip of water)What you've created, is equal to what... Tony Pena did for baseball! If you didn't shackle through thousands of women in your touring career, then heaven help me (pause)something's wrong! You have got the ,... the sickest feel(swallow)in all my bass playing years- with a very popular 80's band by the way, I have ever heard.I did weddings too! And ladies, if you have never dropped to your knees at the first clink of this man's flatwounds...then baby you've never heard BILL WYMAN! Purchase this album.Period(let's just say Webster, when asked to define feel,looked at me with a shaggy wig and straight face and told me to shut my mouth and put on Anyway the Wind Blows. With that he walked away!)

peace...and I'm out,,,igaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
