Anthony Stewart Head sings songs he actually wrote,
By Lawrance M. Bernabo (The Zenith City, Duluth, Minnesota) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Music for Elevators (Audio CD)
I certainly enjoyed hearing Anthony Stewart Head sing bits of songs on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," covering "Green Eyes" and "Freebird," not to mention the infamous musical episode. However, if you expect to hear Head strumming an acoustic guitar and singing on "Music for Elevators" you are going to be surprised by the fact that these are mostly original songs by Head and George Sarah with music that is much more techno pop than anything else (although there are some strong jazz elements at times and an acoustic guitar song, "Talk to You," that is the exception to the rule and my favorite song on the album). There is a duet of the Beatle's "We Can Work It Out" with Holly Palmer and "Last Time," written by Joss Whedon, which raises immediate speculation as to whether this song was intended for "Once More With Feeling": the lyrics would suggest that if it was it was intended for Spike, or maybe Riley, if the musical had been done a season earlier. If you look over the liner notes you will see that James Marsters, Amber Benson and Allyson Hannigan appear on some of the tracks, but they are not really featured enough to be recognizable. In fact, on many of these tracks it is the music rather than the vocals that stand out. Taken altogether "Music for Elevators" is an ironic title, which offers a collection of music that will expand the musical horizons of Head's many "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" fans. This is not especially music for that first cup of coffee in the morning either, but I do not think anybody is going to be terribly disappointed by what they find here. Still, any time Head wants to record an acoustic album covering songs like we heard him do on "BtVS," my prediction is that most of us would be even more impressed (hint, hint, hint).

A Head above the rest,
By A Customer
This review is from: Music for Elevators (Audio CD)
I dont normally write reviews but i really wanted to comment on this album. Being a fan of BtVS and ASH I instantly fell in love with his voice when I heard him singing on the show. This album is really easy to listen to, with great songs such as Fun of the Fair, Last Time, Babies and Owning My Mistakes. The music is good but can be a bit overpowering on Tony's voice - I really hope Tony gives us an album with just him singing along with a guitar. But if your a fan of Anthony Stewart Head like me, you'll love it whatever! Buy it now!

Giles rocks!!!!,
By Louise (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Music for Elevators (Audio CD)
Recieved my copy of music for elevators today and am hugely surprised. Anthony Head has a fantastic voice, the two hidden tracks were a great surprise and it was good to hear the song from 'once more with feeling' again. (Nice to hear James, Alyson and Amber too!!)Highly recommended!!! Bring on the next album!!!
