Though Catie Curtis comes out of the folk music scene, the talent that just bursts forth on this CD cannot be pigeon-holed. She sings with rhythm and feeling, and the songs pulse and groove. This is a pop rock record in the best tradition of Bruce Springsteen, which is fitting, since the producer here is Roy Bittan, Springsteen's E Street Band compadre and keyboard man. His production elevates and illustrates Ms. Curtis's songs but never intrudes or obscures the honesty and intensity at the heart of those songs.

Catie Curtis
 $10.15  
When folk-rockers fail, it's usually by trying to fudge the line between folk and rock: the music either fails to adequately support the lyrics or it overpowers them. Catie Curtis has found the perfect balance on her third album. She and producer Ben Wisch have created a sound that is warm, intimate, and robust, dense without being murky and crisp without being brittle. Curtis' songs sound timeless; the rolling tunefulness of "Gave Me Love" and the wistful chorus of "Fall Away" both reach out and caress you, while the Trinidadian bassline of "Stay Up All Night" pulls nicely against the mandolin and harmonica. Her singing is a little bit self-conscious; she tends to declaim the notes instead of committing to them. But her voice is sweet and gruff, and the songs are good enough that she gets away with her slightly mannered delivery. Special highlight: the drum sound and the Hammond organ part on "Gave Me Love." ~ Rick Anderson

| | Catie Curtis Truth From Lies CD (1995)
Catie Curtis
$10.15
This is an Enhanced audio CD which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
Catie Curtis has taken her personal songwriting to a new depth. With sexual politics never far from the surface, she has crafted some fine lyrics that make her case for individual choice in all things, yet she never gets up on a soap box. The best of these is "Radical"; "I don't feel radical when I kiss you." The production by Darleen Wilson is simple and effective. Curtis's voice has a catch pleasantly reminiscent of Karla Bonoff. ~ Richard Meyer

There's something so honest about folk rocker Catie Curtis' voice. It's full of life and is the kind of voice that comes from someone who doesn't exist, but rather lives. The product of Curtis' life thus far is served up on her soulful fourth set, My Shirt Looks Good on You, a winning and driven folk-rock collection that explores love in Curtis' signature idealistic fashion. "Love Takes the Best of You" offers up an exploration of not romantic love, as many of the disc's 14 songs do, but maternal love, as Curtis sings of adopting an international baby. The song's lyrics are so simply touching: "And I wish I could promise you a beautiful world/That would never break your heart/Maybe that's what we are here for/We try and fix what comes apart." Sometimes full of adolescent charm, as on the title track; sometimes stark, as on "Don't Lay Down," a song-letter to a dying friend, Curtis is always full of ...
| | Lacuna Coil Comalies CD (2002)
Catie Curtis
$12.79 
Representing a classic case of delayed fame, Italian goth-metal act Lacuna Coil broke into the American music consciousness via a much talked-about showing on the Ozzfest 2004 second stage, nearly two years after the release of their third album, COMALIES. Similar to its American counterparts Evanescence, this European sextet features the dual vocals of Cristina Scabbia and her male counterpart, Andrea Ferro. Despite the liberal amounts of keyboards added to the mix, guitarists Cristiano Migliore and Marco Biazzi more than hold their own, pumping choppy riffs into the 1980s-sounding "Self Deception" and the simmering opener "Swamped." What makes Lacuna Coil so unique in an often musically conservative genre is the band's ability to dabble with ethereal dynamics. Such is the case with the soaring title cut and equally potent "The Ghost Woman and the Hunter," both of which blend neo-classical riffing, ...

| | Bad Times CD (2003)
Catie Curtis
$12.49
The legend, as recounted in the liner notes, is that the Bad Times album was recorded in New Orleans in 1999 in one all-day session after a single day's writing and rehearsal by Eric Oblivian (Oblivians), Jay Reatard (Reatards), and King Louie Bankston (King Louie One Man Band), all of whom were looking to purge some personal demons more than they were planning on releasing the results. Originally issued as a limited-edition LP before the CD version (same songs, different running order) came out on Sympathy for the Record Industry in 2003, Bad Times is more of a curio for fans of the participants' main projects than it is a ...
| | Crosby, Stills, and Nash Daylight Again CD (1982) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Catie Curtis
$15.65
Just when the world at large was ready to write off these '60s legends, they turned around and knocked an album full of engaging, even inspiring tunes that brought back fond memories of their glory days. After years of internal strife, drug problems, and other famous rock star pitfalls, the trio had decidedly seen better days, but this was the album that seemed capable of turning it all around for them. Pay particular attention to the transcendent "Wasted on the Way," an unflinching look at the trials of the past brightened by an acceptance and ability to move forward. The sunny folk-pop of this tune and Stills' "Southern Cross," a song about self-realization and renewed inspiration, are the keys to DAYLIGHT AGAIN, which finds our heroes coming up for air after too much time spent in the spiritual shadows.
Although Crosby, Stills & Nash had, in effect, been together for well over a decade when Daylight Again (1982) was issued, it was only their third studio long-player of concurrently new material. Initially, the project began as a collaborative effort between Stephen Stills (guitar/banjo/keyboards/percussion/vocals) and Graham Nash (guitar/keyboards/percussion/vocals), as David Crosby was descending into a self-induced state of perpetual drug dependency. However, Crosby was included, although arguably in name alone, and his hauntingly lyrical "Delta" stands as one of his finest contributions. Perhaps the most telling element in the trio's state of affairs was the addition of the Eagles' Timothy B. Schmit and CSN bandmember Mike Finnigan (keyboards/vocals) on vocals throughout. Despite that obvious setback, the other two primary namesakes supply some genuine and uniformly excellent material to the proceedings. Among the most notable are Nash's "Wasted on the Way" -- which was lyrically an ode to the status of the group's union -- and Stills' collaboration with the Curtis Brothers on "Southern Cross." Both were extracted as singles and became among the best-known tracks not only on Daylight Again, but also in the post-'60s CSN canon. The disc also includes a few thoroughly affective ballads such as "Song for Susan" -- which Nash wrote for his spouse -- and Stills' equally emotive "You Are Alive." By contrast, the album's opener, "Turn Your Back on Love," as well as "Too Much Love to Hide" and "Since I Met You" are all up-
