Lodge Logic L5SK3 Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron 8-Inch Skillet $9.98 The one thing that probably discourages more people from purchasing and using cast iron is maintenance. Like carbon steel woks, cast iron cooking pieces require “seasoning.” To many this is a mysterious or overly time-consuming process. Even if you treasure fond memories of eggs and pancakes cooked in grandmother’s ancient, blackened skillet, you might have no idea how to turn your new pan into su… |

Abbey Road [Vinyl] $9.99 The Beatles’ last days as a band were as productive as any major pop phenomenon that was about to split. After recording the ragged-but-right Let It Be, the group held on for this ambitious effort, an album that was to become their best-selling. Though all four contribute to the first side’s writing, John Lennon’s hard-rocking, “Come Together” and “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” make the strongest i… |

Vintage $5.07 These are the earliest-known recordings of Canned Heat with the primordial lineup of Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson (guitar/harmonica/vocals), Stuart Brotman (bass), Henry “Sunflower” Vestine (guitar), Bob “The Bear” Hite (vocals), and either Keith Sawyer (drums), or perhaps his replacement, Frank Cook (drums), who joined circa 1966. Another notable name among the personnel listed on the original LP jacket is rhythm & blues legend, Johnny Otis as producer. This is certainly fitting, as the Heat wind their way through compact, high-energy versions of a variety of selections, directly contrasting the longer psychedelic showcases that would evolve over the next few years. Their almost cerebral respect for their predecessors would have suggested that the band hailed from anywhere other than their Topanga Canyon digs. However, Wilson, Vestine, and Hite were consummate students of authentic R&B, as evidenced by their practically note-for-note transcriptions of tunes from Chicago icons such as Muddy Waters (“Got My Mojo Working”), Willie Dixon (“Spoonful” and “Pretty Thing”), John Lee Hooker (“Louise” and “Dimples”), and Elmore James (“Rollin’ and Tumblin’.”) The latter cut is actually presented in two distinct renderings — with and without Wilson’s hard-hitting harmonica leads, closely resembling the sound of their self-titled debut, Canned Heat (1967) from the following year. A second holdover is “Big Road Blues,” which is also given a similar driving beat and an otherwise solid reading. These sessions have surfaced on an endless array of reissues including Don’t Forget to Boogie: Vintage Heat (2002), Vintage Canned Heat [Sundazed] (1996), or paired with a 1969 concert platter on the Akarma Records double-play Live at the Topanga Corral/Vintage (2002). ~ Lindsay Planer, Rovi Performers: Alan Wilson – Vocals, Guitar; Bob Hite – Vocals; Frank Cook – Drums; Henry Vestine – Guitar; Larry Taylor – Bass; Stuart Brotman – Bass |

Vintage Cinema $15.18 Telarc’s Vintage Cinema, featuring Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, is a survey of classic film score music from the period commonly recognized as the finest for film music, stretching from Max Steiner’s groundbreaking score for King Kong (1933) to Franz Waxman’s valedictory Taras Bulba (1962). It is a very fast moving program; with Miklós Rózsa’s Spellbound segment being the longest excerpt at just over seven minutes and most others coming in at about three to five minutes. For that, it does not sound at all patchwork, but has a superb sense of flow and forward direction. It is a carefully conceived compilation and contains at least something from each major Hollywood film composer, though one could argue that the inclusion of Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein in this canon is stretching it a bit; On the Waterfront is Bernstein’s only contribution to classic film music, and both composers are better known for other things. However, these segments still fit well into the overall concept, which emphasizes strong thematic ideas over dramatic scoring; Bernard Herrmann’s Psycho is not included, nor is Waxman’s The Bride of Frankenstein, the latter being the only essential piece that is not covered within the necessarily limited scope of this disc.The performances by the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra under Erich Kunzel are splendidly well drilled and effective, on a par with the outstanding Miklós Rozsa: Three Choral Suites album made for Telarc in 2005, and the Bernstein is a highlight, along with Cincinnati’s marvelous, jazz-flavored reading of Alex North’s music for A Streetcar Named Desire. Vintage Cinema is as close as anyone is likely to come, within the parlance of a single disc, to producing a high-quality sampler of the whole of classic Hollywood film music that is also relatively comprehensive. It would be a great place to start if you would like a definition of what classic film music is and how it is different from other kinds of classical orchestral fare; however, even if you just want something enjoyable to listen to, Telarc’s Vintage Cinema is a sure bet. It is available in two formats, both as a conventional CD and as a super audio multi-channel surround disc, and while even on a conventional player you will note a significant advantage in terms of sound with the super audio format disc, these require more care in handling and can be unpredictable, so it pays to know your system. ~ Uncle Dave Lewis , Rovi |

Vintage Violence $5.58 John Cale had the strongest avant-garde credentials of anyone in the Velvet Underground, but he was also the Velvet whose solo career was the least strongly defined by his work with the band, and his first solo album, Vintage Violence, certainly bears this out. While the banshee howls of Cale’s viola and the percussive stab of his keyboard parts were his signature sounds on The Velvet Underground and Nico and White Light/White Heat, Cale’s first solo album, 1970′s Vintage Violence, was a startlingly user-friendly piece of mature, intelligent pop whose great failing may have been being a shade too sophisticated for radio. Cale’s work with the Velvets was purposefully rough and aurally challenging, but Vintage Violence is buffed to a smooth, satin finish, with Cale and his group sounding witty on tunes like “Adelaide” and “Cleo,” pensive on “Amsterdam,” and lushly orchestrated on “Big White Cloud.” (Cale also gets a lot of production value out of his backing group, credited as “Penguin” but actually members of Garland Jeffreys’ band, Grinder’s Switch.) And anyone expecting the fevered psychosis that Cale let loose on later albums like Fear and Sabotage/Live is in for a surprise; Cale has rarely sounded this well-adjusted on record, though his lyrical voice is usually a bit too cryptic to stand up to a literal interpretation of his words. If Cale wanted to clear out a separate and distinct path for his solo career, he certainly did that with Vintage Violence, though it turned out to be only one of many roads he would follow in the future. [The 2001 CD reissue adds two bonus tracks: a previously unreleased alternate version of "Fairweather Friend," and the previously unreleased "Wall."] ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Performers: Harvey Brooks – Bass; John Cale – Viola, Bass, Guitar, Keyboards; Sanford Konikoff – Drums |

New Vintage $19.18 Vocalist and pianist Christopher Martin sings a respectable program on his solo debut New Vintage, a blend of 13 Broadway, jazz, and cabaret standards interpreted in his own unique way. This solo effort features the timeless classic “Brother Can You Spare a Dime,” Harold Arlen’s “Out of This World,” and the Fats Waller tune “I Get a Feeling I’m Falling,” complete with great ragtime and stride piano riffs. Cole Porter’s “I Love Paris,” “Let’s Do It (Let’s Fall in Love),” and “I Love You” are sung with such theatrical flair that Martin’s listeners are sure to be reminded of the audience fervor the songs elicited during their premieres and subsequent runs on Broadway. He handles the brilliance of the lyrics and sophistication of the music with a special resonance, honed over the years by his involvement in 150 theatrical productions and by his singing and playing the literally thousands of songs in his repertoire. Christopher Martin has an excellent voice for show tunes and the dramatic flair necessary to showcase their essence. ~ Paula Edelstein, Rovi |

Instant Vintage $12.79 After more than 20 years in the music business, Tony! Toni! Toné! founder Raphael Saadiq has gotten around to offering his solo debut, Instant Vintage. The apropos title reflects the old-school style that Saadiq has adopted for the album. However, he dubs the type of music — a mix of samples, soul, gospel, and R&B — “gospedelic.” Saadiq has called upon some of neo-soul’s most popular artists to help out on Instant Vintage. Angie Stone makes an appearance on the opening dancefloor-worthy track, “Doing What I Can,” which briefly tells the story of Saadiq’s career. D’Angelo lends a hand on the funkified “Be Here.” Traces of 3T seep into Instant Vintage. Lush orchestration, hook-laden, danceable melodies, and gospel influences are evident throughout the recording. This album should be renamed “Instant Classic.” ~ Christina Fuoco, Rovi Performers: Jake & the Phatman – Scratching, Percussion, Drums; Randall Wiggins – Vocals (Background); South Central Chamber Orchestra – Strings; Traci Nelson – Vocals (Background); Battlecat – Drums; Brandon Fields – Sax (Tenor); Charles Veal – Strings, Violin; Greg Adams – Trumpet; Kelvin Wooten – Tuba, Vocals, Keyboards, Drums, Piano, Percussion, Guitar, Bass, Organ; Lee Thornburg – Trumpet; Leslie Wilson – Vocals; Marvin “Chanz” Parkman – Keyboards; Nick Lane – Trombone; Raphael Saadiq – Vocals, Guitar, Bass |

A Vintage Burden $12.78 Anybody looking for the physically visceral side of Charalambides — as was displayed at Terrastock 6 — should listen elsewhere. Vintage Burden is a collection of quietly psychedelic minimal guitar and vocal songs. It is among the most tender, fragile, and spiritually savvy records out there, and coming as it does from the undisputed parents of the acid folk subculture (can’t call it “underground” anymore; it’s too popular), that’s saying something. Christina Carter has always been a skeletal poet in her lyrics, one to ask questions without worrying about answering them. The set opens with “There Is No End,” a metaphysical meditation on the eternal on which Christina and Tom Carter play guitars that are so steady, slowly developing, and ever present that they sound like loops. There is a strange love triangle afoot, one that is existential and spiritual, one that is physical, projected, and yearned for, and perhaps dismissed. “Spring” has slippery, whisperingly bright textures of detuned guitar and lap steel, with Christina’s vocals just hovering there, framing it all and asking for motion, for exploration, for the step in faith to encounter mystery and magic beyond death and grief. The guitar textures don’t float so much as shimmer — studied, spatial, and above all subtle — never intruding but painting the picture the protagonist is singing about in sound. There is one long instrumental on the set, Tom’s “Black Bed Blues,” which comes from out of the west Texas desert and slips itself onto the train tracks to the Mississippi Delta, all through the circular force of repetition. There’s this gauzy feel throughout, but his bottleneck and lap steel playing give it a weighty undertow for all its trippiness, and the chord shapes in the middle of the track — meeting the parceled-out single notes — are killer. It never quite screams, but lends itself the possibility throughout and gets damn close. It’s answered by the near stumbling grace of “Two Birds,” nearly 13 minutes long, where Christina’s vocals and guitars take the tune to some strange country music wasteland before it all beings to ring and chime together, all those strings answering her voice as she sings “There is nothing for me to know/There is no need to struggle….” As the tension becomes something that unravels itself into something nearly transcendent, the tune changes and Tom plays a beautifully distorted, droning, and biting solo — in the style of Neil Young’s “Cortez the Killer” — for a few minutes, and when the song’s narrative returns and she begins singing again, it’s from a place of arrival rather than traveling or observing. Vintage Burden is among the most beautiful, subtle, and moving records this band has ever made. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi Performers: Christina Carter – Vocals, Guitar (Electric), Guitar (Acoustic); |

Vintage Tech $14.38 Vintage is not entirely the case on this compilation of early works and more recent endeavors from Kansas City rapper Tech N9ne. Tech’s been down for a minute, trading verses with everyone from the mighty 2Pac to the real Slim Shady (although in a more casual sort of party that also included RZA, KRS-One, Xzibit and Kool G Rap on Sway & King Tech’s “The Anthem”). But despite these Billboard-topping friends, Tech ain’t there just yet. Cut’s like “Monster” just aren’t ready for prime-time while the captivating “S.H.E.” is a near-psychopathic spoken word where Tech obsesses over a dancer, “I left my mic for you, my wife for you/I miss you so I’m sitting outside the club every night for you.” And no, it doesn’t have a happy ending. But this disc does; it’s a happy find for longtime fans who would rather have vintage Tech than patiently wait for his next full-length full of hardcore sniping, ominous subjects and club bangers like “Victory” which, despite its earnest attempt at mainstream funk and Luda ready lines like “Cause your momma got a big old butt, and your sister got a big old butt/Since your momma and your sister got a big old butt they helped the niner bust a nut,” can’t avoid the melancholy horns and disquieting choruses. So Tech N9ne stays below the mainstream, but not below the radar. ~ Joshua Glazer, Rovi Performers: Cory Nielsen – Vocals; Erica Hugunin – Vocals; Obie Trice – Vocals; Robert Rebeck – Vocals; Samuel Watson – Vocals; Yolanda Mayberry – Vocals |

Unheard Music $15.96 Blu-Ray pressing. X: The Unheard Music takes long, detailed, and often funny look at the LA music scene of the late ’70s and ’80s and focuses on the group that critics had singled out as the leader of the underground pack. The Unheard Music is a documentary that combines live footage of the band and interviews with the four members (as well as their friends and families) with surreal music videos and montages of newsreel footage and vintage television commercials which help to illustrate X’s uphill struggle against the music industry. Their story rings true even today. Bonus interviews and more. |

Take Me to the Water: Immersion Baptism in Vintage Music and Photography 1890-1950 $30.38 As is par for the course for the Dust-to-Digital label, the exquisite packaging of Take Me to the Water: Immersion Baptism in Vintage Music and Photography 1890-1950 ensures that it will reach a wider and hipper audience than most releases of such frankly esoteric American roots music. There’s a full 76-minute CD of music here, but it’s just part of the deal, encased as it is in a handsome 96-page hardback book containing 75 sepia reproductions of photos of baptisms in the U.S. between 1890 and 1950, along with essays on the pictures and detailed annotation on the tracks. The primary topic of this review is the CD, and it is interesting enough in its own right, containing 25 songs and sermons from 1924-1940. While there’s a good amount of sermonizing to be heard, it’s not a primarily spoken word disc, the sermons often sharing space with musical performances, and quite a few of the tracks presenting only music. The common thread is that all of the cuts relate to baptism in some form, sometimes quite head-on, though sometimes the relationship between the words and immersion baptism is more indirect. As you’d expect, gospel and spiritual music is prominent in many of the selections, whether the performers are white or African-American. But while much of this is fairly raw even for recordings of this vintage (complete with a good amount of unavoidable surface noise on many of the tracks), it’s not totally unapproachable for less specialized listeners. There are actually a few big names from early country music here, like J.E. Mainer’s Mountaineers (whose “Goin’ Down to the River of Jordan” is a highlight), Ernest Stoneman, and the Carter Family, and a few versions of one song in particular (“Wade in the Water”) that will be pretty familiar to many pop and folk fans. The arrangements are fairly varied, too, whether they’re in the Appalachian folk, rural blues, Western swing (on Bill Boyd & His Cowboy Ramblers’ “Sister Lucy Lee”), or choral a cappella veins. That said, this is pretty pious stuff even by the standards of devout vintage Americana, and those without a taste for faith-based roots music may find this of more academic value than something to hear for entertainment or artistic inspiration. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi Performers: Marvin Montgomery – Tenor Banjo; Sara Carter – Autoharp, Vocals; Andrew D. Cole – Tenor (Vocal); Andy Bryant – Tenor (Vocal); J.E. Mainer – Fiddle, Vocals; James Ricks – Bass (Vocal); |

Vintage Broadway $7.18 The multiplicity of generic classifications for the music on this album reveals its ongoing vitality: part of a “light classics” series on Naxos, it might as easily be called just show tunes. The all-instrumental medleys heard here are played by a medium-sized pop orchestra of the kind that used to flourish on both sides of the Atlantic but has now mostly disappeared — this recording was made in 1990, and its reissue is linked, perhaps, with signs of a growing interest in the music of pop orchestras. The orchestra is under the direction of Richard Hayman, who presumably made the arrangements (the profession of conductor/arranger is just one of the interesting features of this repertory), and it would need to concede nothing in a matchup of ensemble and smoothness to a classical chamber orchestra (indeed, many of the members of such groups worked as classical musicians, anyhow). The “nostalgia” billed on the back cover of the release is only intermittently in evidence, for this is not really a survey of great Broadway hits. Indeed, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s show-within-a-show bomb Me and Juliet is distinctly on the obscure side. But its unusually involved tunes fit well with the music on the program, which seems oriented toward musical subtlety and toward display of the capabilities of the musicians involved. If this is not a heartwarming collection of great Broadway melodies — something that’s easily available elsewhere — it is something equally worthwhile: an investigation of the high levels of musical craft to be found along the Great White Way. ~ James Manheim, Rovi |

Ian,David: Vintage Christmas $11.87 David Ian Vintage Christmas breathes new life into a set of familiar Christmas classics in relaxed, swinging arrangements that capture the spirit of the season and the spirit of jazz. In this beguiling blend of instrumental and vocal versions, the mood is intimate, the vibe is mellow, the sound warm and inviting. While dozens of Christmas albums are released each year, the most evocative ones are often those made by jazz musicians. This should come as no surprise, since the emotional primacy in the best jazz music echoes the spirituality inherent in the best Christmas songs. Jazz and Yuletide music have a long and complementary history, from Chet Baker’s Have Yourself a Jazzy Little Christmas to Vince Guaraldi’s A Charlie Brown Christmas to Wynton Marsalis’ Crescent City Christmas Card. Taking proud place in this music lineage is David Ian Vintage Christmas, which breathes new life into a set of familiar Christmas classics in relaxed, swinging arrangements that capture the spirit of the season while respecting the sanctity of the material. Rather than burying the songs under a wall of sound, Ian has opted for a small jazz combo that places the accent firmly on their melodic and lyrical content. |

A Vintage Year $15.18 Singer Mel Tormé and pianist George Shearing make a perfect team, bringing out the best in each other. With the assistance of bassist John Leitham and drummer Donny Osborne, the swinging, witty duo performs a variety of standards, including Noël Coward’s “Someday I’ll Find You,” “The Way You Look Tonight,” and “Anyone Can Whistle,” and a couple of medleys highlighted by a humorous six-song “New York, New York Medley.” All of the Tormé/Shearing collaborations are quite enjoyable and highly recommended as some of their best work of the 1980s. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi Performers: Donny Osborne – Drums; George Shearing – Piano; John Leitham – Bass; Mel Tormé – Vocals |

The Vintage Years $76.48 This impressive, impeccably packaged four-CD box set focuses solely on B.B. King’s 1950s and 1960s recordings for the Modern family of labels. That was a period that basically encompassed the vast majority of his work prior to 1962, though he did a few non-Modern sides before signing with ABC Paramount in early 1962 and did a few other sides for Modern in the mid-’60s. So this is basically a box-set overview of King’s early career, one that saw him score many R&B hits and build a career as a blues legend, even as the blues were falling out of fashion in favor of rock and soul. As many tracks as there are here — 106 in all, four of them previously unreleased — this isn’t a catchall roundup of everything the prolific King did for the label. Additional material shows up on more specialized retrospectives, like Ace’s own The Modern Recordings, 1950-1951. King’s output during this period might be more consistent than it is varied, but both King fans and committed blues enthusiasts in general will be mighty happy with this set, presenting the considerable bulk of his significant Modern sides with intelligence. Each individual CD focuses on a theme of sort. Disc one, “The Great B.B.,” concentrates on the hits and most familiar tunes, like “Sweet Little Angel,” “Every Day I Have the Blues,” “Sweet Sixteen,” “Downhearted (How Blue Can You Get?),” “Rock Me Baby,” “3 O’Clock Blues,” and “Did You Ever Love a Woman.” The disc titled “Memphis Blues’n'Boogie” is pretty self-explanatory and perhaps the least exciting of the CDs, as it’s the most samey-sounding. The disc “Take a Swing With Me” is devoted to King’s mild stylistic tours into soul, gospel, doo wop, and rock & roll, though it’s usually a case of King absorbing such influences into blues than trying something too different. The final CD, “King of the Blues,” puts the spotlight on his later recordings for the label, in which his sound was maturing into something more urbanely soulful, though “Fishin’ After Me” (aka “Catfish Blues”) sounds like a Howlin’ Wolf track with a typically smooth B.B. King vocal dubbed onto it. There are a lot of good tracks here that even those with relatively large B.B. King collections might not be too intimate with, and even the more generic ones virtually always maintain a high level of professionalism and passion. A major bonus is the 76-page booklet, with detailed essays on King’s early career, the Modern label, King’s early road tours, an interview with early King producer Sam Phillips, and a thorough B.B. King/Modern discography. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi |

The Vintage Wine $71.99 A vast collection of most of the Canadian band’s highlights, but not worth buying if you’ve been an avid Wine collector. Unlike other box sets, there are no unreleased tracks (two cuts listed as such appear on other CDs), and only an informative booklet chronicling the band’s output would make this worthwhile for the ardent fan. The strongest selling points are the live cuts on the fourth CD, featuring several tracks not available on any other CD. ~ Glen Miller, Rovi |

Vintage Mac $8.48 This is yet another super-budget compilation of tracks by the original (aka Peter Green/Jeremy Spencer era) Fleetwood Mac. There is little to distinguish it from the other faceless dozens unless you count that several of these cuts are from the live at the BBC sessions, such as “Albatross” (the studio version’s better), “Looking for Somebody,” and “Man of the World.” You already know what’s on the rest: “Green Manalishi,” “Black Magic Woman,” Duster Bennett’s “Jumping at Shadows,” “Oh Well,” and “Rattlesnake Shake,” to name most of them. There are ten tracks in all, and if you know anything about the early Fleetwood Mac you already have them. If you don’t, check out the more complete double-disc collections that are far more rewarding than this slab. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi |

Vintage Collections $5.58 The French LP Hank Thompson & His Brazos Valley Boys is a compilation of live radio performances Thompson and his band gave in 1952, just as his career was beginning to take off with the massive success of “The Wild Side of Life.” Even though neither that song, or any of his earlier, lesser hits, are included on this collection, the album doesn’t suffer as a result. Thompson & the Brazos Valley Boys sound tough and inspired, bringing a considerable amount of grit to his swinging honky tonk. The record remains an item for collector’s only, but for those willing to seek it out, it is an enjoyable and fascinating historical artifact. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Performers: Merle Travis – Falssetist, Vocals, Guitar; Amos Hedrick – Fiddle; Bill Peters – Fiddle; Billy Armstrong – Fiddle; Billy Jack Saucer – Fiddle; Billy Wright – Fiddle; Bob White – Fiddle, Guitar (Steel); Buddy Woody – Accordion; Harold Hensley – Fiddle; |

Vintage Voola $10.98 Originally issued as a vinyl album, this compact disc reissue adds some new tracks and wild, eye-boggling color photos to the original package. The seven original demo acetates Esquerita cut in Dallas at Sellers’ Recording in 1958 are still aboard, sounding raw and wonderful as ever, fleshed out with his contribution to Paul Peek’s lone NRC single, “Sweet Skinny Jenny” and “The Rock-A-Round,” which he helped co-author. Added to this is Esquerita’s late-’60s original version of “Dew Drop Inn” (later recorded by Little Richard) and a Little Richard interview where he waxes effusive about the artist who influenced him so greatly. Although a bit short in the running time department, this nonetheless is the perfect companion piece to any solid collection of his Capitol sides from 1958. ~ Cub Koda, Rovi Performers: Esquerita – Piano, Vocals |

The Vintage and the Gleaning $21.99 Smithy is a retired shearer turned vineyard worker in his autumn years. It is hard graft, but Smithy has always worked with his hands. Physically all but destroyed after a lifetime of hard liquor, but now sober, he begins to see the world with new eyes, a meditative, singular figure in the town's bar on rowdy Friday nights. But clarity can be a curse. Finally confronting his past, overwhelmed by long-buried feelings of regret, nostalgia and loss, Smithy steps in to help a young woman in a desperate situation. A cautious friendship develops, but Charlotte's husband is widely suspected of murder, and Smithy begins to fear that he will pay a high price for his gallantry. Written with an authentic music, and infused with beauty, brutality and sadness The Vintage and the Gleaning is a compelling observation of men, women and country. A remarkably accomplished debut novel. |

Vintage Collections Series $5.58 For fans, Vintage Collections Series offers a concise view of Slim Whitman’s hits; for the uninitiated, here is a chance to experience his otherworldly falsetto at a mid-level price. Although Capitol’s Vintage Collections discs typically offer 20 tracks, the volume devoted to Whitman compiles only 15 songs. This compilation features all of his Top 40 hits (including “Indian Love Call” and “Rose-Marie”), two tracks previously unreleased in the U.S., and a few later hits from the ’60s and ’70s. ~ Greg Adams, Rovi Performers: Slim Whitman – Guitar, Vocals |

X Unheard Music $14.41 X: The Unheard Music takes long, detailed, and often funny look at the LA music scene of the late ’70s and ’80s and focuses on the group that critics had singled out as the leader of the underground pack. The Unheard Music is a documentary that combines live footage of the band and interviews with the four members (as well as their friends and families) with surreal music videos and montages of newsreel footage and vintage television commercials which help to illustrate X’s uphill struggle against the music industry. Their story rings true even today. Bonus interviews and more. |

Worship Music $14.43 Anthrax fans have had no choice but to be very patient waiting for the arrival of the group’s tenth studio album overall, 2011′s Worship Music. Doubling as the first Anthrax studio album since 2003′s We’ve Come for You All and the first with singer Joey Belladonna since 1990′s Persistence of Time, Worship Music was also recorded once before with singer Dan Nelson, and was to be released in 2009. After the group parted ways with Nelson shortly before the album’s projected release, Belladonna was welcomed back into the fold, and all the vocals were re-recorded. But to Anthrax’s credit, it all fits together seamlessly, resulting in arguably their finest studio album since, well, the last one that Belladonna sang on! With vintage ’80s metal sounds reconnecting with the masses in the early 21st century, one of thrash metal’s originators picked a fine time to unleash a strong and inspired effort, especially on such standout stompers as “The Devil You Know,” “Fight ‘Em ‘Til You Can’t,” and “In the End.” And Anthrax do the right thing by tipping their cap to one of heavy metal’s all-time greats, “Judas Priest” (and what makes this tribute even more fitting is that the year that Worship Music was released, Halford and company announced their impending retirement from touring). And as with past Anthrax records, it’s not all about pushing the pedal to the metal from start to finish, as evidenced by the slowly building beginnings of “I’m Alive” and “Crawl.” Despite the long Boston/Def Leppard-esque layoff, Anthrax certainly deliver with Worship Music. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi |

Vintage Violence [Bonus Tracks] $9.59 John Cale had the strongest avant-garde credentials of anyone in the Velvet Underground, but he was also the Velvet whose solo career was the least strongly defined by his work with the band, and his first solo album, Vintage Violence, certainly bears this out. While the banshee howls of Cale’s viola and the percussive stab of his keyboard parts were his signature sounds on The Velvet Underground and Nico and White Light/White Heat, Cale’s first solo album, 1970′s Vintage Violence, was a startlingly user-friendly piece of mature, intelligent pop whose great failing may have been being a shade too sophisticated for radio. Cale’s work with the Velvets was purposefully rough and aurally challenging, but Vintage Violence is buffed to a smooth, satin finish, with Cale and his group sounding witty on tunes like “Adelaide” and “Cleo,” pensive on “Amsterdam,” and lushly orchestrated on “Big White Cloud.” (Cale also gets a lot of production value out of his backing group, credited as “Penguin” but actually members of Garland Jeffreys’ band, Grinder’s Switch.) And anyone expecting the fevered psychosis that Cale let loose on later albums like Fear and Sabotage/Live is in for a surprise; Cale has rarely sounded this well-adjusted on record, though his lyrical voice is usually a bit too cryptic to stand up to a literal interpretation of his words. If Cale wanted to clear out a separate and distinct path for his solo career, he certainly did that with Vintage Violence, though it turned out to be only one of many roads he would follow in the future. [The 2001 CD reissue adds two bonus tracks: a previously unreleased alternate version of "Fairweather Friend," and the previously unreleased "Wall."] ~ Mark Deming, Rovi |

Music’s Not for Everyone $11.02 Chain and the Gang’s second album gives Ian Svenonius another opportunity to stand in front of a massive ensemble of musicians on his soapbox. As on Down with Liberty… Up with Chains!, a who’s who of K Records clientele backs up the former frontman of the Make-Up while he holds together the purposely loose show with poignant rants and loads of charisma. Music’s Not for Everyone is a lazy take on garage rock, indie rock, and Motown, fleshed out with vintage organs, raw guitar tones, and eight backup singers dealing out call-and-response lines. Overall, it’s a darker and more uneven album than the debut, but notwithstanding a few oddities (three reprises, and Arrington de Dionyso’s Gregorian throat singing, namely), it’s a respectable follow-up. As usual, Svenonius’ wit shines in his lyrics. He lays out the steps one must take when forming a Detroit garage rock band (“Detroit Music” and “Detroit Music, Pt. 2”), tries to file a grievance with a former lover for wearing out his lips (“Bill for the Use of a Body”), and takes issue with so-called audiophiles, who miss the deeper meanings of music: “For them it’s just something that they think they’re supposed to do…/Music’s not for them, it’s for me and you.” ~ Jason Lymangrover, Rovi Performers: Brian Weber – Bass (Electric), Guitar (Electric), Piano, Organ; Fred Thomas – Bass (Electric), Guitar (Electric); Joey Casio – Vocals (Background), Bongos; Katy Davidson – Vocals (Background); Lizet Ortuño – Vocals (Background); Sarah Pedal – Vocals (Background); Spencer Kelley – Bass (Electric), Bongos, Guitar (Electric), Drums; Susanna Patten – Vocals (Background); |

Good Old Vintage $8.78 Good Old Vintage captures Duke Ellington & His Orchestra between 1942 and 1953 on 20 tracks originally recorded for RCA Victor, Columbia, and Capitol. It’s impossible to sum up over five decades of Ellingtoniana with 20 tracks, but this collection provides a decent starting point that includes “Caravan,” “Sophisticated Lady,” “Creole Love Call,” and “Satin Doll.” Considering the mass of Ellington material available, Good Old Vintage is a good place to start for casual fans. Bud Music also included an enhanced CD-ROM section containing a biography, discography, jazz time line, and catalog. A nice added touch, but nothing extraordinary. ~ Al Campbell, Rovi Performers: Al Sears – Reeds; Harry Carney – Reeds, Sax (Baritone); Johnny Hodges – Reeds, Sax (Alto); Mercer Ellington – Flugelhorn; Otto Hardwick – Reeds, Sax (Alto); Paul Gonsalves – Reeds; Russell Procope – Reeds, Sax (Alto); Al Killian – Trumpet; Al Lucas – Bass; |

Country Music $14.38 Naturally, the not-so-unspoken joke behind the title of Willie Nelson’s 2010 album is that it’s been so long since he’s played straight country music, he needs to clearly label it when he does. Of course, that’s not strictly true: just as recently as 2009 he was ripping it up with Asleep at the Wheel, turning out a straight-ahead western swing record that is every bit as country as Country Music, although it is true that he’s never quite cut a collection of country music as hushed and muted as this. The soft-plucked string bass and strummed acoustic guitars are trademarks of T-Bone Burnett, the roots music producer whose well-tailored analog impressionism fetishizes authenticity, prizing every piece of pristinely preserved vintage equipment and then recording them immaculately, often with appealing results. There’s a nicely weathered assurance to Nelson’s performance — his voice never strains, he throws off licks with a casual virtuosity — and he sounds like an old pro happy to play with whoever is in the studio, happy to sing whatever the producer puts in front of him. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Performers: Jim Lauderdale – Vocal Harmony; Dennis Crouch – Bass (Acoustic); Mickey Raphael – Harmonica; Mike Compton – Mandolin; Riley Baugus – Banjo; Ronnie McCoury – Mandolin; Russell Pahl – Pedal Steel; Shad Cobb – Fiddle; Stuart Duncan – Fiddle; Budd |

Frost Music $10.38 “Sweet Jenny Lee” opens the album Frost Music like some unholy marriage between the Zombies and Ted Nugent’s Amboy Dukes. And that sums up nicely this wonderful amalgam of British and Detroit rock, a surprisingly poppy effort from Dick Wagner and company. As a future purveyor of hard rock, and within the decade, eventual producer of his friend Mark Farner, the English sounds of bands like Kaleidoscope (U.K.) reverberate through songs like “Stand in the Shadows.” With hints of very early Pink Floyd meets Strawberry Alarm Clock in track two, “The Family,” Frost Music is more than a respectable effort from the young Wagner, and an adventurous offering from the label famous for Buddy Guy, Joan Baez, Eric Andersen, and Mimi & Richard Farina. Outside of Circus Maximus, the Frost are the deviation on this legendary folk label. Wagner’s voice is strong on the venturesome “Stand in the Shadows,” but it is the song with different titles on the album jacket and disc, “Susy Singer” or “Little Susie Singer (Music to Chew Gum By),” which is the album’s highlight. A very psychedelic combination of ideas and sound effects that both the Alice Cooper Group and the Velvet Underground were playing with at the time. Wagner’s eventual impact on the leaders of both groups would emerge in just four years when he co-led the Rock & Roll Animal Band with Steve Hunter for Lou Reed, and when that group went on to backup Alice Cooper, becoming in some paradoxical fashion, a macho foundation for one of music’s most influential glitter/glam rock ensembles. The song “First Day of May” is a return to the Brit-pop sound that is the underlying theme here. Just a few years later, Blue Öyster Cult would produce a song with similar atmosphere entitled “Then Came the Last Days of May” on their Columbia debut, tempo a bit more subdued, but with B.O.C.’s awareness of what was going on in rock & roll, it hardly seems like a coincidence. The Frost were certainly more influential than they ever got credit for. “Who Are You” is really Syd Barrett/Floyd come to America. Hearing this music makes one wonder why Frost Music isn’t as sought after as Moulty & the Barbarian’s first album or Chocolate Watch Band. If Paul Revere & the Raiders and Leslie West’s the Vagrants got immortalized on the Nuggets compilation, it makes the obscurity of the Frost all the more obliging. “Baby Once You Got It” is vintage ’60s pop that bands like the Lyres and the Fleshtones have made a career out of emulating. In fact, this album is a delight for the ’60s connoisseur and it shares a rare distinction with Alice Cooper’s Easy Action, released in 1969 as well, both important and largely forgotten albums by artists who later proved their mettle, Wagner eventually becoming Alice Cooper’s lead guitarist and co-songwriter. “A Long Way Down From Mobile” might throw the listener for a loop, sounding more like an outtake from James Taylor’s backing band, but that’s the curve Dick Wagner has always thrown.

Stay Awake: Various Interpretations of Music from Vintage Disney Films $11.14 Whether you regard him as one of the greatest storytellers in American history or a cold-hearted marketing genius who forced a set of prepackaged consumerist myths on several generations of unsuspecting youth, there’s little argument that the films of Walt Disney have become an indelible part of our collective subconsciousness. Then again, for every child who delighted in the antics of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, there’s another who had the bejesus scared out of him by the Wicked Queen or went into hysterics after Bambi’s mother was shot; there’s a mingled joy and tragedy in Disney’s best work that’s helped to give his films a cultural resonance Bugs Bunny or Tom & Jerry have never achieved. Consequently, different people have wildly different perspectives on Disney’s work, and producer Hal Wilner, a man who joyously revels in diverse perspectives, made the most of that on Stay Awake, in which 21 songs from classic Disney films are reinterpreted — sometimes faithfully, sometimes radically — by a startling array of artists brought together by Wilner. Some of these tunes are barely recognizable from their sources (most notablyTom Waits’ predictably clanky version of “Heigh Ho [The Dwarfs Marching Song]“), while others are faithful yet idiosyncratic (Syd Straw’s jaunty “Blue Shadows on the Trail,” and Los Lobos’s rollicking “I Wan’na Be Like You [The Monkey Song]“), but just about everyone seems to find a different angle from which they approach these tunes. Bonnie Raitt gets soulful on “Baby Mine,” Buster Poindexter’s take on “Castle in Spain” is high camp at it’s most eyebrow wagging, Sun Ra and His Arkestra take “Pink Elephants on Parade” to the spaceways, the Replacements pull “Cruella De Ville” from a puddle of stale beer, and Sinead O’Connor invests “Someday My Prince Will Come” with a desperate longing that’s just a bit disturbing. For every nightmare there’s a moment of genuine beauty, and when Ringo Starr wraps it up with “When You Wish Upon a Star” the cynics and the incurable optimists join hands and all get along just fine for a moment, just the way Uncle Walt would have wanted it. A fascinating look at a massively influential and little explored treasure trove of music. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Performers: Cesar Rosas – Cuatro, Vocals; James Jacson – Bassoon; Michael Blair – Washboard, Tympani [Timpani], Chimes, Tambourine, Cymbals, Marimba, Drums, Percussion; Mitchell Froom – Chamberlin; Val Kuklowsky – Special Effects; Alan DeVeritch – Viola; |

‘Merican [EP] $7.99 After a seven-year hiatus, punk-pop pioneers the Descendents return with ‘Merican, a solid five-song EP that picks up where the band left with 1996′s Everything Sucks. The group’s first release on Fat Wreck Chords, after a short tenure with Epitaph, finds Milo Aukerman, Bill Stevenson, Stephen Egerton, and Karl Alvarez revisiting the timeless lovelorn attack of cherished songs from their past like “Wendy,” “Clean Sheets,” and “Silly Girl” on the disc-opener, “Nothing With You.” Made whole with an infectious chorus, unrelenting rhythms, and a buoyant guitar, the song gives way to the ferocious title cut, which harks back to vintage Bad Religion as it explores the black marks on America’s history, from slavery to Vietnam. But such sociopolitical commentary is rare from the ‘Dents, who downshift to the palatable midtempo number “Here With Me,” which eventually gives way the manic, spastic “I Quit,” a nervous, edgy “Catalina”-like throwback. Only the closing instrumental, a hidden number without an official title, is worth skipping, as it drags in a way that no Descendents number has a right to. ~ John D. Luerssen, Rovi |

40th Anniversary Collection $22.98 This reviewer is usually loathe to give compilation albums the highest rating, as they have an unfair advantage over original albums; and it’s not as though there aren’t already good multi-CD sets on the Searchers, including their 30th Anniversary Collection from Sequel Records. But this two-disc, 56-song collection goes into territory where the early triple-disc set never ventured as the first Searchers compilation to encompass not only their most familiar work on Pye Records, but also Phonogram, RCA, Sire, PRT, and Coconut Records. It also avails itself of the vast expansion of the band’s tape library in recent decades, including demos and live tracks, all in state-of-the-art sound. The result is not only the first truly comprehensive overview of this group, which never had a bad or a dull period, but also their best-sounding account in terms of the sharpness of the remastering. What may surprise even longtime fans is how well their 1963 vintage demos and live tracks come off as performances. Based on the evidence here, these guys were ready to record that far back and had some edges that were a lot rougher and sometimes sharper than the polished, rhythm guitar focused sound that they later cultivated in the studio. In a sense, listening to this collection from front to back is a lot like going through the Beatles’ history, except that the Searchers never took a left turn into psychedelia or, with the exceptions of Tony Jackson and Chris Curtis, developed egos that threatened the integrity of the group. The 2003 remastering has also given their stuff a startling immediacy of impact that outstrips their best prior CDs. You can actually hear the action on the guitars and the drums on this collection, especially on “Sweets for My Sweet” and “Ain’t Gonna Kiss Ya,” the two earliest official releases. The rhythm guitars on “Needles and Pins” and “When You Walk in the Room” chime loud and melodiously in the best mastering job they’ve ever received, and, for th… |

5 (Bonus Tracks) $10.98 5 A collage of sounds and styles, of hip-hop grooves and rock guitar, classic melody and 21st century ambience, 5 is Lenny Kravitz at his most eclectic — and his best. Of the record’s range, Lenny says, Making this album, I felt like a kid with a box of crayons. And I used all the colors. An aesthetic chameleon ever since his 1989 debut Let Love Rule, Kravitz has never been comfortable with borders, boxes, limitations. And with 5, a fascinating mix of old and new, of vintage Lenny and Lenny-right-now, he’s again reinventing himself. The album took eight months because I had to learn a whole new style of recording, Kravitz says. Lenny produced himself — and enlisted the legendary Terry Manning as engineer (Al Green, ZZ Top, Led Zeppelin, Staple Singers). At the beginning of his career Lenny pioneered a return to basic recording; this time Kravitz embraced hi-tech, incorporating his own samples and loops into his trademark tube-amp, down ‘n’ dirty recording approach. No tape this time, Lenny says, and ‘digital’ used to be a dirty word for me. But by working instrument by instrument, building up the sound, I was able to construct the record like a puzzle. I was listening to a lot of New York hip-hop. I like that technique – the sparseness, the groove, the rhythm. As always, the multi-instrumentalist plunged into marathon studio sessions, sixteen-hour days in New York and the Bahamas crafting sounds. The result? Lenny’s fiercest, fullest music — the vocals crisp and immediate, the instrumentation surprising (everything from wah-wah guitar to mellotron and mini-moog to green Heineken bottles as percussion). Craig Ross is again on hand, turning in hot guitar. Lenny’s horn players Michael Hunter and Harold Todd are given space to soar. Female back-up vocals (an unusual twist for Kravitz) add elegance and heart. And Lenny’s own work – playing all the instruments – is more fluid than ever. |

A Family Affair $14.98 Hallelujah! Christian McBride is not one of those strait-laced, down-the-line neo-boppers after all. Here, the prodigiously talented young standup bassist proves that he is also an astoundingly gifted electric bassist, and that ’70s-vintage funk and soul are every bit as close to his heart as ’50s and ’60s hard bop. On electric, McBride weaves inventive countermelodies around tenor sax Tim Warfield’s lead lines, taking Jaco Pastorius’ technique a step further in sheer speed and the ability to play really nasty funk patterns. The stylistic palette of the disc is much wider than anything McBride has done before as a leader, ranging from soul ballads (a lovely cover of Stevie Wonder’s nearly forgotten “Summer Soft,” Wonder-like vocals from Vesta on “…Or So You Thought”) to powerful funk (“Brown Funk [For Ray]“), open-ended electric jazz-rock (“Wayne’s World”), and yes, straight-ahead acoustic jazz grooving (on Sly Stone’s “Family Affair”). Charles Craig excels on acoustic piano, Fender Rhodes, and Wurlitzer electric pianos; drummer Gregory Hutchinson fearlessly handles any stylistic curve balls that McBride throws at him; and guitarist Russell Malone and percussionist Munyungo Jackson turn up now and then. As produced by fellow polystylist George Duke, this is a most encouraging step out of the trap of lockstep bop for McBride. ~ Richard S. Ginell, Rovi |

A Place to Bury Strangers $19.98 From the opening blast of overdriven guitars and hyperkinetic drums it’s apparent A Place to Bury Strangers, self-described “loudest band in New York,” want to pummel you into submission with their unique take on white noise-derived guitar splendor, but then a hypnotic single-string riff takes over to briefly deliver a respite from the assault, recalling the classic era of shoegaze. The swirling atmosphere of guitar feedback and reverb-drenched vocals immediately bring to mind the most obvious comparison: vintage Jesus and Mary Chain. And while the Mary Chain circa Psychocandy evoked the Beach Boys on bad acid or the the Shirelles gigging poolside at the Manson family compound, A Place to Bury Strangers also evoke a host of noisy early-’90s British bands like My Bloody Valentine, Swervedriver, Ride, Chapterhouse, Pale Saints, and the Catherine Wheel without sounding exactly like any of them. These bands knew how to cloak their essentially straightforward and anthemic rock songs in layers upon layers of guitar effects to lend an air of psychedelia and psychosis to what without that noisy dressing would strip down to candy-coated pop confections. And what A Place to Bury Strangers indeed do is write pop songs, with simple, traditional arrangements, primarily in slightly menacing minor keys, and saturated with their own unique brand of sonic mayhem. This is facilitated by the fact that their guitarist/singer designs his own effects pedals at his day job, allowing for a trademark-able and wide variety of signature bombastic sounds (he also does custom work for illustrious members of other similarly minded space rockers). Many songs, like the obvious single “To Fix the Gash in Your Head,” feature a pile-driving drum machine enhancement which adds to the multiple layers and recalls a time when dark dream pop (Curve, Slowdive, the Telescopes) and dancefloor-friendly goth rock (Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, early New Order) were club mainstays. And aside from the lone d… |

A Place to Land [Bonus Tracks] $18.99 Little Big Town scored big with its second album, 2005′s The Road to Here, thanks to the chart topping single “Gone.” Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Roads Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet’s meld rootsy contemporary country with acoustic and electric instruments and vocal harmonies inspired by Fleetwood Mac proved irresistible. A Place to Land is superior to its predecessor in every way: production feels more organic, the music is more sophisticated, and the lyrics more poignant. Perhaps the real secret to the success of this quartet is its secret weapon in behind-the-boards fifth member Wayne Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick is the band’s producer and songwriting partner. He’s chief guitar picker, and plays just about anything with strings, as well as the clavinet and B-3. If the sound on The Road to Here is reminiscent of Fleetwood Mac’s glory years, A Place to Land drinks deeply from the well of the entire Southern California scene from the mid- to late ’70s. It’s not all regurgitation either. Little Big Town’s sound is rooted deeply in traditional, organic country music. Their songs meld seamlessly with the vocal harmonies that evoke vintage Crosby, Stills & Nash and the Eagles earliest records. While the album’s opener, “Fine Line,” literally rings with Lindsey Buckingham’s chord progressions, choruses, and arranged vocals (? la “Go Your Own Way”); it’s open rock & roll territory with one exception: the verse structure has enough hard country to rise above that influence. They distinguish themselves a bit more on the album’s road-weary first single, “I’m with the Band.” Its beautifully paced B-3, electric guitars, and big cracking drums, Dobro, banjos, and mandolin are woven into a beautiful road song. The Eagles get melody-checked in “That’s Where I’ll Be,” but the harmonies here could only be better if Bernie Leadon and Timothy B. Schmit joined in for six-part harmony. The acoustic guitars rise and fall, keeping a steady rhythmic chatter that serv… |

A Song for You $11.99 The duo’s best album, and the place to start beyond the hits compilations. Up to the release of A Song for You, the Carpenters’ success had seemed an awesome if somewhat fluky phenomenon, built on prodigious talent, some beautifully crafted pop sensibilities, and a very fortunate choice of singles — their albums Close to You and Carpenters, though they were top-sellers, both seemed just a bit thrown together. Then came A Song for You, a seemingly unified concept album written and recorded during a frantic period of concert activity, and brimming with lovely musical ideas even more lovingly executed, laced with good humor, and enough hits of its own to have established any artist’s career on its own. And even in between the hits, the album was built on material that could have made a whole career for anyone. The duo’s version of a then-new Carole King song, “It’s Going to Take Some Time,” not only became a hit single but helped them in the “cool” department, Carole King being about the hottest musical personality there was at that particular time. One song, “Top of the World,” which Richard Carpenter had only visualized as album track, became an unexpected hit single and one of the most popular songs of the decade. And where the Close to You LP had included some beautiful album tracks (“Crescent Noon,” ” “Maybe It’s You”), A Song for You was dripping with masterpieces, including “Crystal Lullaby” and “Road Ode”; Richard Carpenter’s “Piano Picker,” a confessional piece sung by the composer, also marked the high point of his solo vocal contributions to the duo’s music. Even the two cuts that reach back into the past — the soft jazz instrumental “Flat Baroque,” a 1966-vintage Richard Carpenter composition that he resurrected for this release, and “Bless the Beasts and the Children,” the B-side of “Superstar” from more than a year earlier (written for a Stanley Kramer movie) — slot in perfectly among the new songs. The high point of their rec… |

A Sucker’s Dream $17.98 The Alternate Routes’ second album isn’t exceptional or much different than you would expect after their previous effort, 2006′s Good and Reckless and True. It did in its own way reflect a large segment of the national mood upon its early-2009 release: determined to plough ahead with a certain grim resolve, acknowledging desperate times but not yielding to despair. The songs are straight-ahead guitar rockers with a dash of atmospheric sustain and distortion, addressing tough bumps on the road in both the American sociopolitical landscape and personal relationships. Ordinary anthemic rock & roll is their most traveled musical landscape, but they’re capable of gentler folkier approaches too, and those tend to bring out more appealing melodies, “All That I See” and “Quiet Highway Road” (the latter of which, like some of the other tunes, has a hint of vintage Elton John) being two such cases. Of the songs that allude to tough circumstances in typical Americans’ lives, “A Better Way” is the most ambitious in its tale of characters confronting dire circumstances. Singer/songwriter Patty Griffin adds vocals to one of the quieter tracks, “Desdemona.” ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi |

Across the Sea of Suns $15.98 Since Paul Kantner reorganized Jefferson Starship in 1991 following the demise of Starship, this is the most ambitious recording the band has undertaken. The unit, also featuring Kantner’s long-term partner, Marty Balin, with whom he formed Jefferson Airplane in 1965, is a seasoned group also boasting guitarist Slick Aguilar, who has been with the principals since their 1985 manifestation as the KBC Band, and drummer Prairie Prince, who has been onboard since 1991. Diana Mangano has been handling the female vocals formerly essayed by Grace Slick since 1994, while keyboardist Chris Smith was added later. As demonstrated here, the band is a Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship repertory group who ranges around the musical history of the groups Kantner and Balin led in the 1960s and ’70s. The bulk of this two-hour-plus double-CD live set, recorded mostly in clubs and theaters in June 2001, consists of material from the Jefferson Airplane albums Surrealistic Pillow and Volunteers and the Jefferson Starship albums Dragon Fly and Red Octopus. There are also obscure songs from the bands’ catalogs, as well as numbers from Kantner and Balin’s solo efforts. The versions are looser than the studio originals, and Balin’s smooth tenor has acquired some grit as he approaches his 60th birthday. A sleeve sticker describes the album as the “first live release of many,” but the Airplane/Starship never had quite the concert reputation (or repertoire) of their fellow San Franciscans the Grateful Dead, and this band is more of re-creation than the real thing, so it remains to be seen whether they can develop a similar audience for a series of live recordings, especially if those recordings are going to be new ones instead of vintage performances. This initial release reveals their approach to be competent and somewhat dated, not magical. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi |

Agony & Irony $25.98 Major-label debuts from punk bands usually all follow the same route, and end up sounding polished and produced. But with Alkaline Trio six full-lengths into their career, it could be assumed that they would be immune to any sort of big sound alteration on Agony & Irony, their first offering for Epic. Besides, Alkaline Trio already polished things up a few albums ago — the raw, drunken rants of their past didn’t make it very far past Asian Man Records. So the fact that Agony & Irony is overall a moderately paced affair featuring songs more pop/rock than pop-punk isn’t such a surprise; it’s simply a logical progression from Crimson. It might be slightly disappointing that some of their raw edge didn’t return — and the lyrics are effective, if not quite up to the cleverness they’ve shown in the past — but at the same time, the continued polish isn’t necessarily a bad thing; there are some pretty great songs here. Opener “Calling All Skeletons” is a perfect pop song — complete with handclaps and hip shakes — tailor-made for soundtracking the reckless house party scene of a prime-time teen drama. “I Found Away” skips along to a shuffling drumbeat courtesy of Derek Grant underneath modern rock guitars, while “Help Me” throws everything it has to Matt Skiba’s expressive vocals. The latter song seems to set the standard, since although Dan Andriano chimes in on almost every melody, he noticeably only takes lead on a handful — as on the lonely vintage pop of “Love Love, Kiss Kiss” — which is a far cry from earlier albums where the split was almost even. Agony & Irony continues with the blood reds, black nights, and images of death that have become part of the band’s trademark, but the guys also inject a few songs with some undercurrents of hope through the haze, which is, admittedly, a nice touch. And there seems to be an equal amount of contentedness as misery in this set, which does suit the aging band. But even so, it’s a little hard not to wish for mor… |

Alaska $13.98 Between the Buried and Me’s forward-thinking musical agenda was already well established by the release of third album, Alaska (their second for Victory Records), but it’s questionable whether their complex creative vision had yet coalesced in such stunningly satisfying fashion. Come to think of it, there is no argument. Perhaps it was the frustratingly continuous membership turnover that marred those past near-misses, because although there was no telling as of yet that the quintet responsible for Alaska would in fact go on to embody BTBAM’s definitive lineup, in retrospect, it’s quite obvious why they meshed here, and then stuck together. On Alaska, BTBAM’s hardcore foundation definitively assumed the role of springboard for their wilder, cross-genre experimentation, often involving gentle passages composed of elegiac acoustic guitar work, flowing basslines, jazzy percussion, and surprisingly timid vocals, all wrapped in a gauze of soothing synthesizers. Opening statement “All Bodies” and, later, “Backwards Marathon” beautifully exemplify these contrasts, riding the very extremes of possible hard/soft delivery and instrumentation as they follow their winding treasure maps to the X that marks the spot. “Medicine Wheel” is all evanescent bliss, and the deceptively named “Laser Speed” goes all bossa nova, while “The Primer” begins like vintage melodic power metal before unveiling its savage side, and another eye-opening number, “Selkies: The Endless Obsession,” resembles a new millennium reconstruction of Rush: from the “Tom Sawyer”-winking synth intro to the circular riff contortions that precede the ensuing thrash-out to the gentle interruption that rebuilds gradually like Opeth meeting Dream Theater. And despite all these daring investigations, Between the Buried and Me could still convulse, shudder, and retch along with the best mathcore practitioners out there — the serpentine cataclysm of a title track, “Roboturner,” and others prove as much… |

American Folk Blues Festivals 1963-1966: The British Tours [DVD] $15.99 Like the previous three volumes of this superb series, American Folk Blues Festivals 1963-1966: The British Tours presents about 75 minutes of mid-’60s European television performances by blues legends. The only real difference is that all of these were filmed in England (hence the subtitle “The British Tours 1963-1966″), where appreciation of the blues was really taking off and, of course, making a big impression on the U.K. pop scene via artists like the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton. While the word “legends” is thrown around a lot in reviewing vintage blues compilations, this is one instance where it’s not overhyping the case. Every single performer here is legendary. Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, and Sonny Boy Williamson were Chicago blues giants,; the more rural and rawer side of the form is caught by Lightnin’ Hopkins and Big Joe Williams; R&B is represented by Big Joe Turner, and soul by Sugar Pie DeSanto; and the blues’ roots in jazz and gospel are captured by Lonnie Johnson and Sister Rosetta Tharpe respectively. Every single performer here is caught, in well-preserved black-and-white footage, at or near the peak of his or her form, sometimes with some of their very most famous songs, whether it’s Waters doing “Got My Mojo Working,” Williams playing “Baby Please Don’t Go,” or Williamson singing “Bye Bye Bird.” That’s not even mentioning the top talents that can be seen as accompanists at various points, including bassist Willie Dixon, guitarists Hubert Sumlin and Otis Rush, and pianists Sunnyland Slim and Otis Spann. As for the most unusual and colorful performances, perhaps Williamson wins on that account — though not by much — by playing one end of a harmonica without holding it, as if he’s chewing a cigar. Also novel is Junior Wells’ 1966 performance of Ray Charles’ “What’d I Say,” delivered (and danced through) in modified James Brown fashion; it might not be the song you most associate with classic blues (or even Wells’ blues), but it’… |

American Graffiti [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] $19.98 It’s the last night of summer 1962, and the teenagers of Modesto, California, want to have some fun before adult responsibilities close in. Among them are Steve (Ron Howard) and Curt (Richard Dreyfuss), college-bound with mixed feelings about leaving home; nerdy Terry “The Toad” (Charles Martin Smith), who scores a dream date with blonde Debbie (Candy Clark); and John (Paul Le Mat ), a 22-year-old drag racer who wonders how much longer he can stay champion and how he got stuck with 13-year-old Carol (Mackenzie Phillips) in his deuce coupe. As D. J. Wolfman Jack spins 41 vintage tunes on the radio throughout the night, Steve ponders a future with girlfriend Laurie (Cindy Williams), Curt chases a mystery blonde, Terry tries to act cool, and Paul prepares for a race against Bob Falfa (Harrison Ford), but nothing can stop the next day from coming, and with it the vastly different future ushered in by the 1960s. Fresh off The Godfather (1972), producer Francis Ford Coppola had the clout to get his friend George Lucas’s project made, but only for $750,000 on a 28-day shooting schedule. Despite technical obstacles, and having to shoot at night, cinematographer Haskell Wexler gave the film the neon-lit aura that Lucas wanted, evoking the authentic look of a suburban strip to go with the authentic sound of rock-n-roll. Universal, which wanted to call the film Another Slow Night in Modesto, thought it was unreleasable. But Lucas’ period detail, co-writers Willard Huyck’s and Gloria Katz’s realistic dialogue, and the film’s nostalgia for the pre-Vietnam years apparently appealed to a 1973 audience embroiled in cultural chaos: American Graffiti became the third most popular movie of 1973 (after The Exorcist and The Sting), establishing the reputations of Lucas (whose next film would be Star Wars) and his young cast, and furthering the onset of soundtrack-driven, youth-oriented movies. Although the film helped spark 1970s nostalgia for the 1950s, nothing else would capture … |

Amplexus $13.99 In 1995 the Amplexus label commissioned several artists to create mid-form (approximately 20 minutes) compositions. The label released them as limited-edition (1,000 copies) 3″ CDs in unique packaging. Projekt Records combined three of them into a single, standard-size CD. Amplexus contains three electro-tribal selections: one each from Thom Brennan, Vidna Obmana, and Steve Roach. “The Transcending Quest” is Vidna Obmana producer Dirk Serries’ piece. In its original format it has three movements: “Moonstream,” “The Quest,” and “Authentic Space.” This is somewhat of a transitional effort for Serries. It combines his early trademark minimalist style with his burgeoning electro-tribal ambience. It is a deep and personal statement. Brennan’s piece, “The Path Not Taken,” is one solid stand-alone composition. It combines his penchant for thick rhythms and dense atmospheres. He merges those qualities in a bio-rhythmic soundscape. And, per biblical custom, “the best shall be last.” “The Dreamer Descends” is vintage Steve Roach space music. He combines his pure electronic style with very subtle yet dense atmospheric effects. This 20-minute journey has two distinct movements: “The Dreamer Descends” and “True West.” He covers a lot of territory in that short time. That is the beauty of Roach’s journeys. They are full of contrasts, compliments, ambiguities, and oxymorons. He makes them work with seamless transitions and smooth segues. This is a truly unique CD. It is similar in feeling to Soundscape Gallery One. Both discs have a desert ambience theme. ~ Jim Brenholts, Rovi |

An Outbreak of Twangin: 26 Cool Early 60s Guitar Instrumentals, Phantom Guitars, Vol. 2 $19.98 It took a while for the British rock & roll scene to develop a breed of truly credible vocalists in the late 1950s and early ’60s (as well-meaning and enthusiastic as Cliff Richard, Billy Fury, and Adam Faith may have been, the fact their music didn’t communicate outside their native soil is telling), but fine guitarists started appearing with surprising speed, and in the wake of the Shadows a steady stream of great instrumental rock sides began flowing out of the U.K. once the Big Beat took hold. Nick Saloman of the Bevis Frond collected 25 great lost instrumental sides from the early ’60s on the 2008 compilation Phantom Guitars, and An Outbreak of Twangin’ is a follow-up that unearths another 26 tracks of similar style and vintage. The Shadows were the clear inspiration for most of the acts on An Outbreak of Twangin’, with Duane Eddy, Link Wray, and Jorgen Ingmann also audible in the style of some of these guitarists, but there are a few stylistic surprises in this set. Rob E.G. uses an electric lap steel to being a unique sound to “Jezebel,” the guitarist with the Gordon Franks Orchestra lends a slinky jazz feel to the noir-styled “An Outbreak of Murder,” the Cannons make the most of a whammy bar and a reverb tank on “Bush Fire,” “Ghost Train” is a cooler-than-expected side from the usually staid Bert Weedon (who, as the author of Play in a Day, literally wrote the book on picking up the six-string), and Ahab & the Wailers toss in the coolest-sounding electronic keyboard this side of “Telstar” on “Neb’s Tune.” Most of the other tunes fall into the standard-issue category of Shadows-era Guitar-Based Instrumentals, but they’re also good ones, and overall this is more consistent than Phantom Guitars and just as much fun. Too bad they couldn’t have found some room for the real Hank Marvin in the midst of all this, though. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi |

Analog $19.98 Although most of us have come to know the music of Philip Glass through one recording or another, he came rather late to utilizing recording as a means to aid composition — the recordings on Orange Mountain Music’s Analog, his first multi-track recordings, date from 1977 and 1980. Overall, Glass doesn’t seem to have used such techniques often for purposes of composing, preferring to work with conventionally written out scores, live instruments, orchestras, or at a piano or keyboard. Analog contains pieces taken from the oldest two-inch tapes in Glass’ own archive and remixed in the digital domain. Although issued here under its original title of Etoile Polaire, the first work included is the same recording issued by Virgin in 1977 as North Star; the CD version of that early LP was still being traded by EMI in October 2006. The difference, and it’s a significant one, is that the Orange Mountain Music is taken from the original multi-track and mixed as though it were a new recording, whereas Virgin’s North Star would have as its source a two-track master mixed down for the LP. It is amazing to hear how well the Orange Mountain CD can reproduce the analog audio signal of the original tape, delivering low bass notes from the electronic organ parts, that tend to disappear on vinyl, with the kind of crispness and fidelity one only could’ve heard in a recording studio back in the ’70s. Mad Rush, better known as a piano piece and recorded by Glass in 1989 for the CBS album Philip Glass: Solo Piano, is heard in an organ version recorded for the use of choreographer Lucinda Childs in 1980. Dressed Like an Egg, composed for the 1977 Holland Festival, is musically related to Another Look at Harmony Part IV but practically to the session that produced Etoile Polaire. Analog is a disc of certain interest to those intrigued by Glass’ early career and features a terrific photo of a trim Glass on the front, with a full head of unruly hair and surrounded by vintage Farfisas of th… |

Analog Recording – Using Vintage Gear in Home Studios $29.95 Today’s hottest home-studio trend is the revival of analog recording. Everyone knows that digital is convenient, consistent, and reliable – but if you want the warm, live sound of real music, you need to allow analog back into the mix. The good news is that the equipment you need is still out there – and surprisingly affordable. This book tells you how to find, maintain and use: analog tape machines • analog mixing consoles and monitors • vintage and vintage-style microphones • analog reverberation, echo, compression and limiting. The book also takes you through the process of building a home studio and a live echo chamber. And there are hints and tips from the analog experts: engineers and producers who have worked with everyone from Phil Spector, Sonny & Cher, The Beach Boys and The Beatles through to Nirvana, Maroon 5, Paul Westerberg, and The White Stripes. The package includes an 11-track audio CD that demonstrates what you can achieve when you bring the human sound of analog into your digital home studio. |

Any Time $11.99 Seven years passed between 1994′s Whistling in the Wind and Leon Redbone’s next studio album, Any Time — which, like his previous recordings, demonstrates that the singer was born in the wrong time. Redbone should have been born in 1900 or 1905, but lucky for listeners, he wasn’t — and his nostalgia has made for a lot of enjoyable moments. On this 2001 release, Redbone continues his love affair with the jazz, pop, and folk of the ’20s and ’30s. The crooner takes listeners back to a time when Herbert Hoover or Franklin Delano Roosevelt was in the White House, and he maintains a relaxed, congenial, laid-back ambience on vintage tunes that include “In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree,” “All I Do Is Dream of You,” and Jelly Roll Morton’s “Sweet Substitute.” Drawing on influences that range from Hoagy Carmichael to Bing Crosby — although he has more of a rural, folksy, down-home outlook than the latter — Redbone pays tribute to what is often thought of as a more innocent and na? ve period of American music. Of course, not all of the music from the ’20s and ’30s was innocent. Classic blues singer Lucille Bogan’s “Shave ‘Em Dry” (just to give one example) is as raunchy and X-rated as anything by 2 Live Crew, Prince, or Lil’ Kim. But a lot of ’20s and ’30s songs did have an innocent sort of charm — at least by today’s standards — and that is the type of mood that Redbone goes for on this CD. Anyone who has enjoyed Redbone’s previous releases will find Any Time to be a rewarding addition to his catalog. ~ Alex Henderson, Rovi |

Apron Strings $14.98 The Memory Band played richly textured, mild-mannered guitar-based folk music with some influences from vintage British folk and folk-rock on Apron Strings, their second album. Instrumentally, they’re most distinguished from other acts working in similar territory by their prominent use of both violin and viola, usually in the same track. Listen to the opening instrumental, a version of the traditional warhorse “Blackwaterside,” and you’ll be reminded of Donovan songs like “The Fat Angel,” though the vibe is here relayed in a more detached, somber fashion. There’s some other traditional material on the album too (as well as an unexpected cover of Ronnie Lane’s “The Poacher”), though most often the songs are the work of guitarist-founder Stephen Cracknell, and convey an autumnal, slightly melancholic outlook. The use of both male and female vocals (Cracknell and Nancy Wallace being the most prominent contributors in that regard) helps vary the moods, but the singing, and to a lesser degree the playing, would benefit from some more intensity and emotion. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi |

Arrival $7.99 Journey was formed originally as a vehicle for Neal Schon’s guitar pyrotechnics, but after five years the band sought out a lead singer to give them mainstream pop appeal, and Steve Perry did that, helping them to a string of seven consecutive multi-platinum albums before the band broke up in 1987. A 1996 reunion put them back in the winners’ circle with Trial by Fire, but Perry then bowed out for health reasons, putting Journey in the sticky position of recruiting a new lead singer. (Drummer Steve Smith has also been replaced by Deen Castronovo formerly of Bad English.) They chose a soundalike, Steve Augeri, which suggests that they are more concerned with recreating their hits in concert than in making new music. A group of Journey’s vintage always risks sounding like a copy band of itself, and Arrival, the first full-length album with Augeri, realizes that danger. The singer doesn’t quite have Perry’s smooth, flowing tenor, but he’s close enough so that much of the time, especially in big arrangements, he can fool you, though at unadorned moments on ballads he sounds different. When he’s not singing, the music is even more like Journey, with Schon’s soaring leads supported by Jonathan Cain’s bright keyboards in typical arena rock arrangements. It’s hard to argue that the generalized romantic sentiments that make up the lyrics, here contributed by a variety of people including Augeri and Cain’s wife, are any worse than Perry’s, but Perry sang his words with more feeling than Augeri does. So, the new Journey turns out to be a half-step back to the old (make that the old, old Journey — pre-Perry, when Schon ruled). Odds are, that will be a more difficult sell at record stores, though Augeri’s similarity to Perry means that the concert revenues shouldn’t suffer. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi |

BLUE BLUEBERRY – Cardioid Condenser Mic $949 Winner of Electronic Musician’s 2000 Editors’ Choice Award for Best Microphone, the Blueberry consists of a Class A discrete transformer based microphone amplifier perfectly chosen to compliment our cardioid pattern, hand- built large diaphragm capsule First and foremost, the Blueberry has been designed to provide the commanding, intimate presence associated with the world?s best (and most expensive) vintage vocal microphones. With its shimmering, detailed highs, smooth midrange, and minimized proximity effect (a bass boost inherent in all unidirectional mics), the Blueberry excels at delivering a vocal right to the front of the mix where it belongs. When processed with limiting and/or compression, as is standard practice for most pop vocals, tracks recorded with the Blueberry will be free of pumping, low frequency thumps. Acoustic guitar, hand percussion, drums, and other critical high end sources also shine in front of the Blueberry, gaining an extra measure of presence that enables the most delicate sounds to cut through a mix, even at very low levels. Designed to fill the needs of the home musician and the professional alike, the Blueberry includes the Series Two Shockmount and comes handsomely packaged in its own cherrywood box. Whatever your music, add a Blueberry to the mix and let your ears feast on the sound. |

Babez for Breakfast $14.99 When theatrical/makeup bands like Alice Cooper and Kiss first appeared on the scene in the early ’70s, quite a few journalists wrote them off as having to hide behind a gimmick, claiming that their material wasn’t strong enough to stand on its own. Decades later, it’s pretty obvious that these scribes didn’t know what the heck they were talking about, as those two highly influential artists are still rocking. That said, however, it’s hard not to have that same thought pop into your head whenever another new theatrical band appears on the scene, such as Lordi, who have made a career out of elaborate costumes and ghoulish masks. On their fifth studio effort overall, 2010′s Babez for Breakfast, the group is back with an album of tunes that seems to be based equally in vintage ’80s metal and Rob Zombie’s brand of electro metal. Case in point, “Call Off the Wedding” (a tune co-written with former Kiss guitarist Bruce Kulick), which sounds like a power ballad straight out of the 1980s, while such tracks as “Discoevil” and “I Am Bigger Than You” sound like direct descendants of Mr. Zombie. But something that any longtime fan of headbanging music will detect, Lordi have a penchant for coming up with tunes that sound just too darn similar to past compositions by other renowned acts, namely the title track that sounds very much like “Stand Up and Shout” by Dio and “This Is Heavy Metal,” which sounds akin to Kiss’ “War Machine.” Also, it’s a bit hard to get past such goofball lyrics as “Babez for breakfast, bitches for brunch” (on the title track), and the group’s repeated paeans to the glory of rock and metal (“Give Your Life for Rock ‘n’ Roll,” “Loud and Loaded,” etc.) — but you’ve got to appreciate a song title like “Granny’s Gone Crazy.” If you’re all about the “shock” in shock rock, then Lordi and Babez for Breakfast may do the trick. If you’re looking for more of the “rock” in the equation, be prepared to look elsewhere. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi |

Baby Snakes $25.99 This short but delectably sweet release is for most intents and purposes the soundtrack to the Frank Zappa concert film of the same name. Both were captured on location at New York City’s Palladium (formerly the Academy of Music) in 1977, during the artist’s brief yearly residency in the Big Apple in and around Halloween. By the time of these concerts, Zappa was embroiled in all manner of unpleasantness with Warner Bros. Records — a fact not lost to listeners as he comments upon their tumultuous relationship during some off the cuff dialogue with Terry Bozzio (percussion/vocals), as heard on “Titties and Beer.” That behind-the-scenes drama certainly didn’t best the perpetually resilient Zappa as he, Bozzio, Adrian Belew (guitar/vocals), Ed Mann (percussion), Patrick O’Hearn (bass), Tommy Mars (keyboards/vocals), Peter Wolf (keyboards), and vintage Mothers of Invention member Roy Estrada (not so sexually aroused gas mask/vocals) are joined by some of “New York’s finest crazy persons” for half an hour-plus of musical madness as only Zappa could deliver. The “Intro Rap” features a brief dressing-room dialogue between Zappa and one of his longtime enthusiasts who just happens to be Warren Cuccurullo. If the name sounds familiar, it might be because he would serve a tenure in Zappa’s late-’70s lineup as a guitarist before becoming a co-founding member of Missing Persons alongside other Zappa alumni Bozzio and O’Hearn, prior to settling into the re-formed Duran Duran in the mid-’80s and 1990s. Although the title track, “Baby Snakes,” is essentially the same studio version that graced 1979′s Sheik Yerbouti, the rest of the material is live. “Black Page, No. 2″ is a jaunty instrumental that Zappa had composed specifically with Bozzio in mind. It then developed into a full-blown ensemble piece, and in the context of both the film and aural companion was used to accompany an enforced recreational audience-participatory dance contest. “Jones Crusher” is a hard-… |

Back To Basics $12.66 One of the most accomplished performers of the last decade, Christina Aguilera has sold well over 25 million albums worldwide and cultivated a fan base that crosses generational, racial and gender lines. Now, segueing from the audacious sexuality of her second studio album, Stripped, the chameleon-like performer pays tribute to the music that has inspired her with the August 15th release of Back To Basics (RCA Records).A modern take on vintage jazz, soul and blues from the 1920s, ’30s, ’40s and beyond, her third studio album is wildly inventive, whose throwback style creates a sound that’s gritty and raw. The album reunites her with producer Linda Perry and offers new collaborations with producers such as DJ Premier. The upbeat first single, Ain’t No Other Man, will be world-premiered on the MTV Movie Awards on June 8 prior to its debut on June 12. This is a concept album that follows a bold vision, explains Aguilera. The touchstones are Billie Holiday, Otis Redding, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald – what I used to call my ‘fun music’ when I was a little girl. The double album, Back To Basics utilizes an orchestra, choir, string quartet and jazz horns, as well as techniques that, according to GQ, blends a vintage-soul sound with state-of-the-art beatsmanship to form a throwback/hip-hop showcase for her outsize voice. I Got Trouble incorporates a scratchy blues feel, while Candy Man recalls the tight harmonies of all-girl groups from the ’30s and ’40s Save Me From Myself is an emotionally naked, raw-sounding song dedicated to her husband. Thank You, dedicated to her fans, features DJ Premier splicing bits of Genie In A Bottle with fan voicemail messages. Also sure to appeal to Aguilera fans is the risque song Nasty Naughty Boy (which has a ’20s burlesque feel) and the sassy club track Still Dirrty. |

Bad as Me $17.98 Bad as Me is Tom Waits’ first collection of new material in seven years. He and Kathleen Brennan — wife, co-songwriter, and production partner — have, at the latter’s insistence, come up with a tight-knit collection of short tunes, the longest is just over four minutes. This is a quick, insistent, and woolly aural road trip full of compelling stops and starts. While he’s kept his sonic experimentation — especially with percussion tracks — Waits has returned to blues, rockabilly, rhythm & blues, and jazz as source material. Instead of sprawl and squall, we get chug and choogle. For “Chicago” — via Clint Maedgen’s saxes, Keith Richards’ (who appears sporadically here) and Marc Ribot’s guitars, son Casey Waits’ drums, dad’s banjo, percussion and piano, and Charlie Musselwhite’s harmonica (he appears numerous times here, too) — we get a 21st century take on vintage R&B. Indeed, one can picture Big Joe Turner fronting this clattering rush of grit and groove, and this album is all about groove. Augie Meyers appears on Vox organ and Flea on bass to guide Waits’ tablas and vocals on “Raised Right Men,” a 12-bar stagger filled with delightful lyrical clich? s from an America that has passed on into myth — Waits does nothing to de-mystify this; he just makes it greasy and danceable. The slow, spooky “Talking at the Same Time” is still in blues form albeit with ska-styled horns to make things more exotic, as Waits waxes about the current state of economic affairs. He showcases history’s circular nature as he bridges our national narrative from 1929-1941, and up to the present day: “Well it? s hard times for some/For others it? s sweet/Someone makes money when there? s blood in the street…Well we bailed out all the millionaires/They got the fruit/We got the rind…” Rockabilly rears its head on “Get Lost,” with David Hidalgo strutting a solid ’50s guitar snarl above the horns. Dawn Harms’ violin and Patrick Warren’s keyboards add textural dimension to H… |
