 Chipmunks' "Low Places" a lowlight March 28, 2000
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
In a career otherwise noted for groundbreaking entertainment and stunning successes, the Chipmunks' "Low Places" falls remarkably short of the power and feeling we have all come to expect from Alvin, Simon, and Theodore. The humble beginnings that brought them together for early albums like "Chipmunk in MoTown" and other widely considered classics are utterly absent from this slapshod effort, an obvious attempt to "cash in" on the country craze. The lack of ambition leaves most of these tracks sounding drearily pieced together, and the rumors of in-fighting between the band are appearent, especially in the last four tracks, on which all of the instruments and vocals Simon reportedly did by himself.
 I bought this out of curiosity March 10, 2004

And it was much better than I expected. The Chipmunks are not the kind of act I would listen to very often but they make a change from conventional singers. Originally, I steered well clear of their music but they turned up as guests on (for example) Christmas albums by Alan Jackson and Jaci Velasquez so I got used to them that way. There are some good original songs together with some entertaining covers, sometimes featuring the original singer.
Guests featured on their own songs are Billy Ray Cyrus (Achy breaky heart), Aaron Tippin (There ain't nothing wrong with the radio), Tammy Wynette (Stand by your man), Alan Jackson (Don't rock the jukebox) and Waylon Jennings (Outlaws - my favorite track here). Charlie Daniels also puts in a guest appearance, but on an original song - Brothers and old boots. There are two covers of Mary Chapin Carpenter songs - Down at the Twist and Shout and I feel lucky - but Mary does not put in a guest appearance.
The other three songs are all originals without guests. Country pride is one of those name-dropping songs paying homage to country singers old and new. Gotta believe in pumpkins at first appears to be a piece of nonsense, but it has a serious message about faith and hope. I ain't no dang cartoon appears to be autobiographical.
If you have not heard the Chipmunks, I recommend that you hear some of their music before considering buying any of their music. If you enjoy their other music, your enjoyment of this album will depend on whether you like country music or not.

RECENTLY ACQUIRED AN OLD COPY OF THIS ON CD. MY 6 YR OLD GRANDSON LISTENED TO IT ALL SUMMER WHILE VISITING ME. HE LEARNED NEARLY ALL THE SONGS BY HEART AND SANG THEM WHEN IT PLAYED. I COULD NOT ASK FOR BETTER ENTERTAINMENT FOR HIM. I AM INTERESTED IN THE SINGER ON "BROTHERS AND OLD BOOTS". THIS WAS A FAVORITE OF HIS. I CHECKED ALL SUMMER FOR A DUPLICATE COPY OF THIS CD SO THAT HE MIGHT TAKE IT HOME BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. I WILL PURCHASE THIS FROM YOU SHORTLY.

Now this is where the dialogue fits the album. Since there were a whole lot of guest appearances, the dialogue was just right, and nicely done too. However, "Stand By Your Man" was a little cheesy. Nonethless, it gets better at the end of the song. Until now, I'm still wondering how old the Chipmunks are in this album. 12? This album is very enjoyable. Very very enjoyable. Finally, Simon gets to take the spotlight, and sings solo these days (Yay, Simon!). :p

This album is really great. I would have never guessed I'd like a "Chipmunks" album so much. The production is first class. Sound quality and performaces are dynamite. You'll have so much fun listening to this one, you'll do it again and again. Some big country hits are included and done to perfection. It's especially hilarious to hear the girl chipmunk do Mary Chapin Carpenter's "I Feel Lucky". Alvin and the guys have outdone themselves with this one. There's also guest appearances by Country's biggest stars.
