Album Favorite

"A rather lofty title, but it’s totally misleading because it wasn’t recorded at Carnegie Hall at all. It was a kind of attempt to suggest a concert at that venue. I guess the label wanted people to think, Wow, he played at Carnegie Hall. He must be important! “Which, of course, he was. From the singles he did, like Ain’t That Lovin’ You Baby to Baby, Where You Going? to albums like I’m Jimmy Reed, the man was a treasure. “This was a two-disc set, and that in itself was a novelty. I got it when I was around 10 or 11. I don’t think I ever saw a record that had two discs in it before. Such a cool album. “Musically, somebody might listen to this and go, ‘Oh, that’s just three-chord stuff.’ But the complexity that takes place between the exchange of [co-guitarist] Eddie Taylor and Jimmy Reed is fascinating. A Mississippi mystery. Even though they’re playing two entirely different figures, it all meshes in a way that makes it impossible to figure out who’s playing what.

Alliance is one of those mobile RPGs where you gain heroes and fuse them together to power them up. It takes a fair amount of strategy to decide which heroes to keep and which to "eat." The battles are turn-based--you can choose to play them manually or set the game to automatic. There is also a variety of things to do: gather armor, mine for gems, explore rifts for treasure, etc., and that's not including the main campaign.

I like Alliance because you don't need cash to have a fun experience with it. The art is pleasant to look at, and as I said, the mechanics are amusing. I imagine this is one of those apps where I'll be obsessed with it for a few months and then forget about it entirely, but in the meantime, yay
