Lole y Manuel: Nuevo día

First to recommend

Description

This one could easly be one of the top ten albums on my desert island collection.

The first record by the artistic duo that was formed by Dolores Montoya and Manuel Molina in 1975. Recorded under the direction of the flamencologist Ricardo Pachón, this now legendary record falls within the framework of the origins of new flamenco, or flamenco fusion, in the 1970s.

Glitter and Doom Live: Tom Waits

First to recommend

Description

Some of us couldn't make it to the Tom Waits "Glitter and Doom" tour, when I say some of us, I guess I mean most of us, Tom Waits doesn't play arenas, and so most of us missed out, Ok, when I say most of us, I really mean me, I missed out. But ok, ok, I'll get over it. I mean after all there is this recording here, taken from 17 sold out performances--say how do you get a ticket to a sold out performance anyway? Seems like some concerts sell out before the tickets go on sale, maybe I can buy a advance ticket to his next thing, you know, buy it before he's even thinking of going on tour, yeah, yeah, Hmmm...

Beatles: Limited Edition Stereo USB Digitally Remastered Catalogue

First to recommend

Description

Beatles for sale, I knew that Apple logo would come back in a big way. And here it is. The Beatles "Apple Corps logo" has been redesigned as the killer app (oh I really didn't mean to do that). It's a beautiful 3D object that magically contains the Beatles entire digitally remastered music catalogue. It's what Beatles fans have been wanting for years, but more.

The unique, apple-shaped USB drive is loaded with the re-mastered audio for The Beatles’ 14 stereo titles, as well as all of the re-mastered CDs’ visual elements, including 13 mini-documentary films about the studio albums, replicated original UK album art, rare photos and expanded liner notes. And it's fully compatible with PC and Mac.

P.S. It's a limited edition of only 30,000 ( ^_^ ) -nuff

Michael Jackson: The Remix Suite

First to recommend

Description

This one took me by surprise, why? Because the translation of the word "remix" in my mind is "avoid". So I set my expectations on "bottom" and pressed play,...

The first track didn't do much for me, but it also wasn't cluttered with a lot of ego-rapping all over it, so I went to the next track and was instantly happy with the direction that The Neptune's took with "Never Can Say Goodbye", but the throwaway talk added to the track ruined the song for me, so on to the next track, Dallas Austin's take on "I Wanna Be Where You Are", I loved it, the next track, Polow's "Dancing Machine" sold me! Polow takes one J5's signature hits and firmly shapes it with a contemporary sound (Wow speaking about contemporary remixes, Benny Blanco's remix of "Ain't No Sunshine" is so epic in it's feel that it could be expanded across a series of albums.), and then Salaam Remi's remix of ABC--yes! I began to realize that this was not just a good collection, it was crucial. For example Emile Haynie mix of "Maria" gave legs to a song that I would usually pass up in it's original version. and then I listened to the next and the next and now I'm here recommending it.

I understand this album was just the tip of the Michael Jackson Remix iceberg, I hope the other additions are as exciting as this one. Thank you Motown.

My favorite on the two track offering is "FeelingPulledApartByHorses" which is written and played by Jonny and Thom, it's a rework of an old tune that had been kicking around for a while, glad that it's finally found a home.

Devil's Halo: Me'Shell Ndegéocello

First to recommend

Description

Devil's Halo shows off a wide range of styles which may have been eclipsed on other albums. A colorful collection of psychedelic R & B, soulful rock, and throbbing ballads whose melodic gravity feels both loose and captivating in each performance. Yet as much as I enjoy the upbeat songs, in my ears Ndegéocello is the queen of the make-out song and I'm ecstatic that she continues to explore the tender and smooth grooves that run deep with in Devil's Halo.

Description

I love when music crosses over cultural lines. On Ana Rita Simonka's "Bossa Nova Delhi" sacred mantras from India is mingled with Brazilian Sounds. The result goes perfectly with toast.
