Customer Reviews Not At His Best Here However, Jinx is not one of his better albums. I saw Rory on this tour;he opened for Rush, was sensational,blew them off the stage. The material has taken a turn for the worse. The opening track is an awkward attempt to keep up with 80's pop, something a blues performer of Rory's magnitude shouldn't have had to do. The rest is very basic,stripped down rock n'roll,which sounds like a good idea, but Rory was always much better than that. Doesn't sound like a lot of production went into this one either. Buy this only after you own his best 70's efforts. Still can't rate his worst efforts lower than a 3.
Ordinary What annoys me are Rory's vocals. Not really a superb singer, and this kinds of downlevels the otherwise OK rock'n'roll. »Jinx« is mainly for Rory Gallagher fans! The CD booklet says it's symbolic for a difficult phase in his life, so maybe the fans will get much more out of the lyrics and the music.
