Golden Palominos

Drunk With Passion (1991)

Drunk With passion is the fifth album by Anton Fier's supergroup, featuring Richard Thompson on guitar, Bob Mould and Michael Stipe on vocals, Carla Bley, Bill Laswell and many more ... "Mazzy Star with more punch" ...

Alive and Living Now (Michael Stipe) ...


The Haunting (Alison Kramer) ...


"On their fifth album, Drunk With Passion, the Golden Palominos are still not really a band, and it still doesn't matter. The concept remains simple: Invite an array of hipster musicians into the studio, anchored by the thundering rhythm section of drummer Anton Fier and bassist Bill Laswell, and see what sparks fly. The group's new album, Drunk With Passion, opens with ''Alive and Living Now,'' matching R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe with guitarist Richard Thompson and jazz keyboardist Carla Bley. The song, Stipe's ode to that special someone who re-energizes you after all seems lost, virtually explodes with a kicky blast of newfound love, and it's a thrill to hear Stipe, who enunciates every confessional word, go out on such an emotional limb. (By comparison, most of R.E.M.'s tame Out of Time sounds like a John Denver tribute album.)" ... ew.com ...
