Product Description

Album Description
For Room Service, his first "studio" album in six years, the gravel-voiced singer took a cue from the blueprint of Jackson Browne's "Running on Empty" album and recorded this opus in hotel rooms and backstage at various venues during his tours of Europe between 2002 and 2004. Naturally, the result has a spontaneous, rough feel to it as Adams gets back to basics and away from the tailored studio work he helped perfect in the 1990s. the final package was produced by Bob Clearmountain (Bruce Springsteen, Roxy Music and many more).

CD Description
After packing his recording studio into two suitcases with the help of digital technology Canadian rocker Bryan Adams releases his ninth studio album. Recorded in various hotel rooms and backstage at concerts while touring the world, the album sees Adams deliver another selection of adult rock in the vein of previous releases.

5.0 out of 5 stars Liked Reckless? You'll love this!, 1 Nov 2004
There have been a fair few negative reviews of this album, all of which I feel are unjustified. This is an album of variety, and the sound is still very much Bryan Adams - you can hear the influence of 'Run To You' in 'Open Road' (one of my favourites on the record - and im sure Open Road will join the long list of Bryan Adams classics in the future) and East Side Story is so infectious that you will struggle to stop yourself dancing along to it... the mark of any good song!

I have to admit, I find 'Flying' a little slow, but it's a grower, definitely.

Having just heard him on his Room Service tour, I can confirm that this new album sounds just as good live - and comparing the old with the new, Room Service matches up to the original favourites - Heaven, Summer of 69, Run To You.... the list goes on.

If you have loved Bryans old music, then you will definitely love this record as well. Naturally his music has matured, but he hasnt worsened with age as many artists do, he's simply evolved and carried his music into the 21st century (successfully!)

p.s.... he's a nice guy too!

5.0 out of 5 stars You'll always get the best of him, 28 Oct 2004
By C.Clarke (Cheltenham, UK) - See all my reviews
Ignore all the negative reviews you may have read, if you're a BA fan you will love Room Service. So many tracks off this album have just stuck in my head and refuse to be dislodged. The album opener Eastside Story is a cracker, arguably the best song he's written since Waking up the neighbours era.

I'm not going to individually review each track because you need to make up your own minds. However my personal highlights are the title track, Room Service, the first single Open Road (which reminds me so much of Run to You) and Not Romeo Not Juliet, a catchy slow burner of a track, which I think may well be the next single.

To be honest though there isn't a bad or even remotely poor track on the album. I tried hard not to like Flying as I'm a fan of his rockier stuff but having seen him perform this track acoustically on his recent UK tour it's now also firmly lodged in my head. It was also good to see him reunited on this track with Robert John "Mutt" Lange, the master producer who has done so much good work with BA but also Def Leppard and AC/DC.

Blessing in Disguise is a great way to finish the album, a real bluesy rocker reminiscent of his cover of Come On Everybody, which he used to perform live in the early nighties. The album does tail off a bit towards the end but this is a minor criticism. In summary, Room Service is a great album from a bunch of great musicians, it's not his best, I still rate Waking up the neighbours as his highpoint but it could well be a close 2nd and it's well worth a place in your collection. I just hope that the guy's decide to bring out a new live album as the live arena is where they really come into there own

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 12 Oct 2004
"Room Service" is Bryan Adams' first studio album for 6 years and in my opinion it is definately worth the wait. The album was recorded between 2002-2004 whilst bryan was on tour and most of the recordings were completed in hotel rooms whilst on the road.

The sound is much more raw and has a much more Rock feel to it.
Their are many really great songs on this album many of which rock but at the same time one or two are classic Ballads,the most impressive of which is "Flying" and "This Side of Paradise"

The mid paced Rock Songs include East Side Story,Not Romeo Not Juliet,Why do you have to be so Hard to Love" all with brilliant hooks that will have you humming them for a long time."Open Road" is very similar to "Run to You"

My personal favourites are the fast paced rock songs: She's a Little too Good For Me",Room Service"Right Back Where I Started From" and "Nowhere Fast"

My only complaint was probably the bonus song which was similar to a 50's rock n'roll song, however don't let that put you off buying this great record as all the other tracks are classic Bryan Adams
