Knussen: Orchestral and Vocal WorksSe flere produkter fra AmazonProbably Oliver Knussen has never quite lived down premiering his First Symphony with the LSO when only 15 (those were the days--it made front page of The Sun!). The tag of prodigy proved a hindrance, at least in the UK, to getting his music taken seriously. Yet listen to the Second Symphony (1971), with its settings of Georg Trakl's terrifying Rats and Sylvia Plath's nihilistic Edge, and gasp at the 19-year-old's handling of such elusive texts, with a perception not even the young Britten could match. Eight years on and the Third Symphony is a mature reflection on what can be done with the modern orchestra. Don't be fooled by the 15-minute duration: there's more activity here than in many symphonies three times longer, put together so that you can find your way through the sheer diversity of sound with ease. The chamber works are welcome additions, especially the colourful vignettes of Ophelia Dances and the sheer drive of Coursing. Good performances--surely Knussen himself would now take charge in the Third Symphony and give it a tad more spontaneity--and decent sound. At mid-price, a real bargain. --Richard Whitehouse Fragt: Ukendt! |

Marcelo Alvarez - Bel CantoSe flere produkter fra AmazonThough he came to professional singing comparatively late and began to attract the attention of the operatic world only fairly recently, Argentinian tenor Marcelo Alvarez already seems launched on a successful career. On this debut recording of Italian arias, he displays a light, sweet voice; a ringing, easy top; a basically lyrical temperament; and honestly felt, natural expressiveness--only the three familiar arias from Verdi's Rigoletto are a bit fussy and exaggerated. Though the mixed program does not give him much opportunity for sustained characterization, he does match the color and intensity of his voice to the situation. Among the highlights are a beautiful extended scene from Bellini's I puritani with soprano Ying Huang; arias from Donizetti's Linda di Chamonix and La favorita, the latter culminating in a splendid high C; and a lively cabaletta from Verdi's La traviata. The orchestra tends to be too discreet. --Edith Eisler Fragt: Ukendt! |

Dennis Wilson Pacific Ocean BlueSe flere produkter fra AmazonApart from the non-release of Smile, the biggest lament of hardcore Beach Boys fans is that Bruce Johnston aside, none of the non-Brian Wilson solo albums are available on CD. But now, for fans of late drummer Dennis Wilson, there's reason to celebrate as his only-released solo album gets the reissue it deserves. Widely acknowledged as the finest Beach Boys solo effort, it's now presented with clarity, allowing the full sonic palette--the punch of opening "River Song" for example--to be heard in its intended glory. Wilson's raspy vocal may have been past its prime, but it's still affecting and ably supported by the sumptuous production values he gave the album. With high quality tracks such as the funky "Dreamer" and the poignant "Farewell My Friend", this will appeal to anyone with even a passing interest in The Beach Boys, as well as a delight for hardcore fans as the unreleased tracks (from the unfinished follow-up Bambu), easily match the original's quality. While the disappointing absence of earlier singles ("Lady" or "Sound of Free") prevents this from being a definitive career anthology, this is as essential a Beach Boys artefact as Pet Sounds or Sunflower/Surf's Up. --Thom Allott Fragt: Ukendt! |

Soundtrack Of Our Lives Behind the MusicSe flere produkter fra AmazonBehind the Music is the third album from Gothenburg's Soundtrack of Our Lives who first caused a stir with their 1996 debut Welcome to the Infant Freebase. A screaming homage to rock 'n' roll, Welcome bowed deep and low before the Rolling Stones, particularly the classic 1968-74 period. Yet Soundtrack were always more than a tribute outfit. Live, they eschewed the Stones' showbiz flamboyance in favour of a hypnotic, strobe-lit intensity while singer Ebbot Lundberg--big, bearded and clad in a white robe--came on like a genuine manic street preacher, a hip priest to end them all. With Behind The Music, the band are seeking a sound to match their compelling and idiosyncratic live set. The Stones' influence is still present, notably in the strum and loose backing vocals of "Sister Surround", and the storming, semi-psychedelic "Independent Luxury". But now the net is spread wider. "Broken Imaginary Time", written by bassist Kalle Gustafsson, is a solemn, organ-led lament recalling "Eleanor Rigby", while "Nevermore", with its insistent piano and guitar, also recalls the Beatles, only this time funnelled through Noel Gallagher. Elsewhere, "Infra Riot" is urgent garage, "Still Aging" is rhythmically Dylanesque and "Mind the Gap" is like Albatross blended with Pink Floyd's "Crazy Diamond" and "Interstellar Overdrive". It's an exciting album, soulful and far-reaching. You just know the next one will be better still. -- Dominic Wills Fragt: Ukendt! |

Various Artists DJ Skully: Champion SoundsSe flere produkter fra AmazonHaving won DMC's UK DJ championship and been runner-up in the World final, DJ Skully here gets a shot at the main prize: Champion Sounds, his own volume of DMC's compilation series. It's as much a showcase for his taste in hip-hop and compiling skills as his already-certified turntable dexterity, and as such it's an absolute coup. As if having LL Cool J name checking him on the intro wasn't kudos enough, every track is a previously unreleased exclusive. Better still, most were written especially for the collection, specifically tailored to match Skully's love of vintage cinematic funk. From the liquid strings of his own "Components of Competition" to the full orchestral strut of Royalty's "Wordplay", the spectacular assaults of rhyming grit are made unmissable by beats and menace straight from a 70s cop thriller. In the company of Celph Title's mean street couplets and Skully's grimy turntables, even the flighty romance of "Turntable Science" comes with a sinister undertone. With down-tempo soul and a tail-shaking samba from Jehst & Tommy Evans rounding out the image of a good night in a sweaty downtown basement, Skully's Champion Sounds instalment is without question one of most entertaining and essential hip-hop collections in ages. -- Dan Gennoe Fragt: Ukendt! |

David Bowie Let's Dance: RemasteredSe flere produkter fra AmazonWhen Bowie returned to music-making after an unprecedented three year break, looking tanned, healthy and suited for the first time in his career, it was with this relatively clean-cut album to match. Although featuring another definite new direction, with co-producer Nile Rodgers of Chic helping produce a stylish post-disco dance sound, the Let's Dance is a mixed bag. Much of the album's success was due to its three danceable hit singles: "China Girl", a sensuous Bowie/Iggy Pop collaboration already recorded by the latter, the distinctive "Modern Love" and the funky title track. However, most of the rest of the album is bland and vapid, marking the start of a period of serious decline in Bowie's songwriting skills. A cover of Metro's "Criminal World" and "Cat People" are the only two other strong tracks, although the latter--previously released as a single in 1982--is not a patch on the original version. The re-release of Let's Dance includes the Bowie/Queen collaboration "Under Pressure". Although far from a highlight of the work of either of the artists involved, it is nevertheless a welcome addition for completists. --James Swift Fragt: Ukendt! |

Roxy Music AvalonSe flere produkter fra AmazonHipper students of 1980s pop might like to pretend that Joy Division and The Smiths had a monopoly on melancholia, but for the older, more suave miserabilist, nothing could match the stylised desolation of Roxy Music's last album. Avalon was recorded in the wake of the band's first number one hit--a version of John Lennon's "Jealous Guy"--and although that song isn't on here, its tortured shadow looms large over "While My Heart Is Still Beating", the title track, and the unlikely Balearic anthem "More Than This". If time has been kind to Bryan Ferry's crumpled Armani chic, it hasn't exactly been vicious to his back catalogue: Avalon sounds even more sumptuous now that the CD age has caught up with Rhett Davis' pristine production. --Peter Paphides Fragt: Ukendt! |

Johnny Gill Johnny Gill [Us Import]Se flere produkter fra AmazonIt's telling when an artist releases two self-titled recordings a mere seven years apart. Gill has a great voice, but for the most part he remains in search of good material and effective production. This eponymous effort for Motown (the first was for Atlantic in '83) is his best effort. Gill was simply the finest voice to pass through the New Edition aggregation. His impassioned baritone gives lust a rare urgency and repentance an unusual poignancy (if not outright credibility). The teams of L.A. Reid and Babyface or Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis produced the best tracks on this record, and "Rub You the Right Way," is a minor classic. Gill has yet to match this disc, but in the right company, he will. --Martin Johnson Fragt: Ukendt! |

Dinah Washington Dinah Washington Sings Bessie SmithSe flere produkter fra AmazonOf all the great jazz singers, Dinah Washington is the most fun to listen to. She was a lady who dealt in sexual disaster both in her real life and in the lyrics of her vivid and expressive blues songs. Here she borrows a set from the Empress of the Blues, Bessie Smith. The songs prove to be ideal for Dinah, who replaces Bessie's ponderous dignity with a springy swing that still keeps the high drama of the originals. Dinah's voice soars and swoops with a flexibility that few and certainly not Bessie, could match. A dozen of the numbers have a fine studio big band in support with trombonist Quentin Jackson emerging from it to feature on "Trombone Charlie". The other three tracks, including the macabre "Send Me to the Electric Chair" were done at the Newport Jazz festival with an all star group that included pianist Wynton Kelly and drummer Max Roach. Dinah made innumerable albums during her short life. Many of them were flawed, but this Bessie Smith set is one of her very best. -- Steve Voce Fragt: Ukendt! |

Spooks S.I.O.S.O.S. Volume OneSe flere produkter fra AmazonThese days, America's hip-hop purists long for a respite from the synth-based thug-rap currently enjoying airwave domination. Listeners who appreciate a less abrasive form of the music will find some salvation in S.I.O.S.O.S., the debut release from the four-MC, one-vocalist East Coast collective known as Spooks. S.I.O.S.O.S. is notable for its live instrumentation (with a few judiciously jazzy samples to spice up the mix), but its standout feature is Ming-Xia's soaring vocals, which add a sultry counterpoint to the flamenco styling of "The Mission" and haunting emphasis to the bhangra-tinged "Safe House". The album's weakness lies in the remaining members' uninspired rhyme skills, which fail to match their vocalist's capabilities. Inevitably, Spooks will suffer comparisons to other organic hip-hop outfits, such as the lyrically superior Fugees or the trippier Morcheeba. Alongside these groups' best efforts, Spooks' S.I.O.S.O.S. is not classic material, but, as an antidote to today's commercial rap overdose, it is a solid first effort. -- Rebecca Levine Fragt: Ukendt! |

Ryan Adams GoldSe flere produkter fra AmazonTorrential creativity has fast-forwarded the artistic evolution of former Whiskeytown frontman Ryam Adams from country-rock boy wonder to despondent troubadour with a 1960s fixation (his solo debut Heartbreaker), but it may also explain why listeners often need to wade through some pedestrian material just to find a few pearls of poetic excellence. Gold is no exception to that trend, a sometimes engaging middle-of-the-road roots-pop album that's both overlong (70 minutes) and at times overindulgent. There are high spots--such as the bouncy, breezy opener "New York, New York" and the plaintive ballad "When the Stars Go Blue" (which features a vocal turn reminiscent of Morrissey)--but much of the disc gets lost in forests of indistinct guitars and plodding percussion that never nudges Adams into actually rocking. Gold is the work of a notoriously prolific songwriter who hasn't yet learned to play to his strengths, one whose execution doesn't yet match his vision. --Anders Smith Lindall Fragt: Ukendt! |

Barber Barber: Adagio for StringsSe flere produkter fra AmazonSamuel Barber's Adagio for Strings is a powerful piece, packed with emotional intensity yet also extraordinarily listenable--and popular. Here, Barber's short masterwork of simplicity and resonance gets eight treatments, from those he approved of (Charles Munch and the strings of the Boston Symphony; the Tokyo String Quartet; organist David Pizarro; and the Smithsonian Chamber Players) to new interpretations that don't quite match with the older renditions. James Galway's new flute-and-synthesizer reading is a bit anemic, though thankfully not showy, and the Canadian Brass's arrangement is likewise tempered and calm, even if not very close to having significant bite. Richard Stoltzman and the Kalman Clarinet Choir probably do the best job of taking Barber to new places; the woody tones mesh almost polyphonically. Also included is the Choir of Trinity College's reading of Agnus Dei, Barber's choral setting of the Adagio, a distillation that might well be the high point of the CD. For the most stunning rendition of the Adagio, however, listeners should really hear the Thomas Schippers version. --Andrew Bartlett Fragt: Ukendt! |

Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin I: RemasteredSe flere produkter fra AmazonAs it turned out, Led Zeppelin's infamous 1969 debut album was indicative of the decade to come--one that, fittingly, this band helped define with its decadently exaggerated, bowdlerized blues-rock. In shrieker Robert Plant, ex-Yardbird Jimmy Page found a vocalist who could match his guitar pyrotechnics, and the band pounded out its music with swaggering ferocity and Richter-scale-worthy volume. Pumping up blues classics such as Otis Rush's "I Can't Quit You Baby" and Howlin' Wolf's "How Many More Times" into near-cartoon parodies, the band also hinted at things to come with the manic "Communication Breakdown" and the lumbering set stopper "Dazed and Confused". --Billy Altman Fragt: Ukendt! |

Original Cast Recording Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor DreamcoatSe flere produkter fra AmazonAndrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat completed the transition from cantata for schoolkids to big-budget glitzfest with Steven Pimlott's 1991 London revival. Here's the 1992 Canadian version of that show, and even if it's not an ideal recording--Janet Metz as the narrator is no match for Laurie Beechman in the original Broadway cast and there's a little too much synthesizer in the orchestrations--this CD is valuable for the performance of former teen pop idol Donny Osmond as the title character. He's in excellent voice, and was so right for the role that he was selected to preserve it for the 2000 video production. And of course the songs are still here, showcasing Rice's witty lyrics and Lloyd Webber's chameleon tendencies--dabbling in country, calypso, French cafés, and a King-like pharaoh--as well as favorites "Any Dream Will Do," "Close Every Door," and "Go, Go, Go Joseph." This production also includes the "Joseph Remix" (also known as the "Joseph Megamix"), a nine-minute medley of themes arranged with a heavy beat that was used for a kind of onstage aerobics routine as the show's postscript. --David Horiuchi Fragt: Ukendt! |

Talking Heads Fear of MusicSe flere produkter fra AmazonThis disc represents the bridge between Talking Heads' first two herky-jerkier albums and the next two funky ones. Fear of Music is more than just a bridge, though. It's the water under the bridge, the air, the animals, the cities the river flows through, and the heaven on top of it all: "...a place where nothing ever happens." Plenty happens here, however. The CD starts out with its feet off the ground and both arms in the air: "I Zimbra" is all-out celebration. The rest of the songs are pretty much exercises in simplicity: one-word titles with music to match. (Witness the lightness of "Air", the trippiness of "Drugs", the "ooga"-ness of "Animals".) David Byrne's artful naiveté ("Hold the paper up to the light/Some rays pass right through"), coupled with the whole band's musical playfulness (for example, the tuba on "Electric Guitar"), makes for fun fun fun. --Dan Leone Fragt: Ukendt! |

Queen Sheer Heart AttackSe flere produkter fra AmazonSheer Heart Attack is probably the band's first mature album, in which they married the Led Zeppelin-influenced crunch of their eponymous debut, and the sonic gimmickry and thematic ambition of its follow-up, Queen II. They then hitched the result to their strongest songwriting to date: the single, "Killer Queen," actually won an Ivor Novello award, and pointed the way forward to subsequent glories. Occasionally their desire to cover every conceivable stylistic base becomes wearying (did ragtime pastiche "Bring Back That Leroy Brown" ever seem like a good idea?), but the ambitious structures and elegant arrangements of tracks like "In the Lap of the Gods" and "Lily of the Valley" attest to a formidable and distinctive musical vision. And when they cut loose and actually rocked out ("Now I'm Here", "Brighton Rock"), few of their peers could match their power--something that many critics, alienated by Mercury's fondness for the grand gesture, nowadays mostly choose to forget. --Andrew McGuire Fragt: Ukendt! |

Neil Diamond Home Before DarkSe flere produkter fra AmazonRemarkably Home Before Dark is the first US chart topping album of Neil Diamond's forty year career. It appears to repeat the formula behind 2006's acclaimed 12 Songs--relatively understated arrangements and a subtle Rick Rubin production. But Diamond, though sixty-seven years old and the oldest recipient of a Number One so far, is no Johnny Cash, turning his unique voice to some well chosen contemporary material. Instead Home Before Dark is a collection of new Diamond songs, and though they might not match the boomers in his back catalogue they are hardly stripped back. These are songs designed to fill large venues alongside the showstoppers in Diamond's still energetic live show. "Pretty Amazing Grace" is in the great tradition of Diamond songs that defy their corniness with sheer catchiness, as is "One More Bite of the Apple" while "Don't Go There" features bracing backing vocals and a delightfully dated wobbly guitar hook. The duet with Natalie Maines, "Another Day (That Time Forgot)", would fit comfortably on American country radio while "The Power of Two" sounds like another hit in waiting. In fact this is more a conventional Diamond collection than a Rick Rubin production, dominated by lightly understated country rock arrangements played by a crack team including Smokey Hormel, Heartbreakers Benmont Tench and Mike Campbell and the usually experimental Matt Sweeney. This is a charming and consistently solid set, though Home Before Dark does lack the unexpected intensity that made 12 Songs stand out so. -Â?Steve Jelbert Fragt: Ukendt! |

Izzy Stradlin River (OLD VERSION)Se flere produkter fra AmazonWith River, his first album since 1992's Izzy Stradlin And The Ju Ju Hounds, Izzy Stradlin--the former Guns 'N' Roses guitarist--has taken Keith Richards even closer to his heart. Beginning with the good time rock & roll of "Jump in Now" and passing through the countrified gospel of the title track to the honky piano-led "Far Below Me Now", he reminds you instantly of Richards' contribution to the Rolling Stones' back catalogue, particularly in the lazy, lowdown drawl. Indeed, as the souped-up narcotic lament of "Underground" slips into the slow, distorted reggae of "Shall Walk" and the "Cherry Oh Baby"-like "Run-In", you realise that this is Izzy's update of the Stones' Black and Blue--there's even a cameo from Stones keyboardist Ian MacLagen. Aided and abetted by Rick Richards from the Georgia Satellites, Stradlin makes a real effort to match his hero's relentless groove and casual inventiveness. And, though there's no "Wild Horses" or "Memory Motel" here, he does occasionally approach Richards' ragged glory. --Dominic Wills Fragt: Ukendt! |
