Reviews Customer Reviews for Trampoline True Music Appreciation Rating: With the release of Trampoline, The Mavericks go and take their capabilities to the farthest reaches and pull it off flawlessly. This album is not a "country" album but since Country radio sold out to the clean pop of the Faith Hills and anything that sounds like cross over contemporary music, The Mavericks moved far past all that nonsense. Trampoline is a natural addition to the perfect progression of all the Maverick's albums to date. This is music for those that appreciate virtuosity and don't just look for what sounds like everything else.
Raul Malo, Robert Reynolds, Paul Deakin and Nick Kane raised the bar on this. BUY IT!!!!
Customer Reviews for Trampoline Cd Very Good Rating: since I collect Raul Malo and the mavericks cd's & dvd's I had to have this one. It is one of their first.
Editorial Reviews for Trampoline Audio Cd Amazon.com Time was when pop radio was an amazingly eclectic place. The Mavericks' latest, Trampoline, bounces between pop styles so effectively that it almost sounds like the world's greatest old-school pop station. "Tell Me Why" is brassy blues-soul like B.B. King was scoring with in 1970; "To Be with You" is countrypolitan down to its strings and backing choir, while "I Don't Even Know Your Name" could be a long-lost Hollies recording. Throughout the disc, we're offered touches of everything from Beatles-esque sitar to Herb Alpert horns, and all of it's pure, powerful pop. The standout, though, is "I've Got the Feeling," which captures the sprawling sound of '70s Elvis with all of the sincerity and magnificence required, and without a jumpsuit in sight. --David Cantwell
