| | Cruisin' 1967 CD
An instantly recognizable bargain-bin staple since the late '70s, thanks to their colorful comic book covers tracing the romantic life of an Everycouple named Peg and Eddie, the Cruisin' series of discs is built on a brilliant concept: Each disc is devoted to a single year, with hit songs, local commercials, station jingles, and news headlines, all presided over by a noted DJ from the era, for a near-perfect recreation of that year's AM radio experience. Dr. Don Rose of WQXI, Atlanta, hosts Cruisin' 1967, and it's one of the better entries in the series, with no weak songs on its play list, which includes such gems as Brenton Wood's "Gimme Little Sign," Keith's "98.6," and the Cowsills' underrated slab of lite psych, "The Rain, the Park and Other Things." The Blues Magoos' thrashing "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet" and the Royal Guardsmen's "Snoopy Vs. the Red Baron" are the two tracks least likely to show up on compilations such as this, but the familiarity of this entry as opposed to some of the others doesn't detract from its overall quality. The station promos and jingles are equally interesting. ~ Stewart Mason Cruisin' 1967 Songs | 1. | Dr. Ron Rose Theme |

Music composed by Jimmy Roberts. Lyrics written by Joe Dipietro.
The Thing About Men was the second Off-Broadway musical written by composer Jimmy Roberts and lyricist Joe DiPietro, whose first musical, I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change, had been running continuously for more than seven years when its follow-up opened on August 27, 2003. And that first musical, having exceeded 3,000 performances, was still running when The Thing About Men closed after only 222 performances on February 15, 2004. Why the difference? I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change is a musical revue about the mores of contemporary romantic relationships, circa the 1990s, while The Thing About Men is a book musical based on German director Doris Dörrie's 1985 film comedy Men... about a philandering advertising executive who discovers his wife also is being unfaithful and reacts by befriending her lover and becoming his roommate. Thus, ...
| | Brian and Elizabeth Falconer Chocolate Suite CD (2004)
Cruisin' 1967 songs
$12.15
A "Hottest Products of 2004" award winner from iParenting Media Awards and a Parents' Choice Recommended Recording! The piece "Midnight Rain" was nominated as Best Asian Song for the 2006 Just Plain Folks Music Award. .....At last, Japanese music for chocolate lovers! Recording artist and koto master Elizabeth Falconer combines forces with her son Brian to play koto music as smooth and uplifting as chocolate. You don't have to be a Japan expert or practice Zen meditation to enjoy this. Inspired by her son's love of chocolate, Falconer has composed music that is warm and inviting, sophisticated yet accessible. The silken sound of of the koto evokes images of delicate blossoms and soft clouds. A delicious album for all ages to enjoy. Why chocolate? "It all started when I wrote a koto duo for my son, who absolutely loves chocolate," Elizabeth explains. "We began to play the piece two years ago, and audiences love it. I want to help break koto music out of its stuffy, academic image. You don't have to be a Japan expert or practice meditation to enjoy koto music," she says. ...
| | Think Of One Trafico CD (2006) (Import) Digipak; Belgium
Cruisin' 1967 album
$16.39
Finally, after seven albums beginning with 1998's Juggernaut, Flemish avant-world funksters and rhythm-aholics Think of One have an album distributed in the United States (thanks to Crammed and Rykodisc): 2006's Tráfico. For those unfamiliar with the band's wanderings, Think of One are apt to turn up recording with indigenous musicians practically anywhere on Earth, from the Equator to the Arctic. Chuva em Pó, released in 2004, was the first fruit of the band's sojourns to Recife, capital of the northeastern Brazilian state of Pernambuco and home to Afro-Brazilian musical and performance forms like maracatu and forro. The Belgians, led by guitarist/vocalist David Bovée and including saxophonist Eric Morel, bassist Tomas de Smet, trombonist/tubaist Tobe Wouters, and drummer Roel Poriau, were joined by vocalists and percussionists from the region, notably singers Dona Cila do Côco and Cris Nolasco, and the result was one of the band's finest records to date, combining the influences of Antwerp and Recife in a successful blend of rhythm, atmosphere, and sonic adventurousness. For Tráfico, Think of One returned to Recife and continued their collaboration with area musicians, including Cila do Côco and Nolasco. The disc is a worthy follow-up to Chuva em Pó, perhaps a bit more pop-influenced as Bovée -- balancing nonchalance and edginess rather like Kevin Ayers in the age of caffeine -- and the other vocalists sing of such topics as an uncomfortable barroom atmosphere, waiting on a terrace for a girlfriend who will never arrive, a sea goddess, selling items in a marketplace, and a man who falls into a shellfish tank (it helps if you can understand Portuguese, French, or the Flemish Dutch dialect).
It's sometimes a crazy mix of stuff, as when the horns kick out the theme to Bonanza over a churning rhythm during "Tahina," which also features call-and-response chanting vocals between Cila do Côco and the background singers before the energy level is ratcheted up to near punk levels fueled by Bovée's one-chord maximally distorted guitar roar. A highlight perhaps just for overall strangeness is "Samba Belga," with a spooky intro featuring what sounds like Bovée ...
| | Harsh Reality Witness To It All CD (2006)
Cruisin' 1967 CD music
$14.79
Fear Is Not The Answer.That is the primary message that encompasses the Minneapolisbased aggressive metal band Harsh Reality. Formed in the belief of being true to ones self and living your life in your own way despite any rocks that may lie on the road ahead. Founded in 1989 the band has under gone several changes from its inception not the least of which is the Gender Transition of band leader/founder Tempest (formerly Glen Crane) who reformed the band in early 2006 after a 4 year hiatus while she awoke to her true self leaving her 'boy days' behind and preforming as a member of the MMA award winning All The Pretty Horses. She quickly added her ATPH and fellow Transgendered band mate Jendeen Forberg, her original singer Odi (who never missed a beat with any of the changes), and new HR family member Eric Strom filling the vacant Guitar position (formerly of Chaos Lords). For Tempest and Jendeen Harsh Reality picks up where the heaviest aspects of ATPH left off. The band features a raw aggressive sound drenched in passion and angst ...
