Review of the Alanis Morissette CD Feast On Scraps

Not sure whats happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the better Feast On Scraps gets. Feast On Scraps simply stated is one of Alanis Morissettes best CDs to date.

Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and youve got one of Alanis Morissettes most impressive releases ever.

Listen to Feast On Scraps and I believe youll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired, the production is simply outstanding, and Alanis Morissette is clearly in top form. So much so that if you're even mildly into Pop music you'll enjoy this CD.

While this entire CD is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 2 - Bent For You, track 7 - Simple Together, and track 9 - Hands Clean.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Fear Of Bliss. Outstanding!
