The darkness touched on in OUR BELOVED REVOLUTIONARY SWEETHEART is embraced fully on this, Camper Van Beethoven's final album. The instrumental "Opening Theme" introduces new member violinist Morgan Fichter (who replaced departing multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Segel). This is followed by "Jack Ruby," as haunting a song as you've ever heard graced with lovely "oohs" and "aahs." As is his wont, David Lowery sings the song's half-glimpsed but ever-riveting imagery like an angered next-door neighbor.
"When I Win The Lottery" sums up their attitude of dark hopefulness. The band's cover of the old Status Quo hit, "Pictures Of Matchstick Men," afforded them some airplay, but alas, they disbanded the following year. Lowery reemerged thereafter with the slightly more mainstream Cracker, while some of the others headed further off the road with the Monks of Doom. Camper Van Beethoven maintained very high standards throughout their half a decade of life, and they went out in fine style.
Camper Van Beethoven: David Lowery (vocals, guitar, harmonica, keyboards); Greg Lisher (vocals, guitar); Morgan Fichter (vocals, violin); Victor Krummenacher (vocals, bass); Chris Pederson (vocals, drums, percussion).
Additional personnel: Garth Hudson (vocals, pump organ); Tim "SteelBone" Cook (pedal steel); Don V. Lax (fiddle, strings); Hammer Smith (harmonica); Davey Faragher, Danny Faragher, Mary O'Neil, Wally Sound (background vocals).

Having spent most of the '90s just flying below the radar of what's deemed hip, Cracker blissfully continues down the path of solid songwriting and excellent musicianship on GENTLEMAN'S BLUES. Once again, the band's inspiration comes from all points of the music map. "Seven Days" is a rollicking, road song punctuated by Johnny Hickman's country licks and David Lowery's raspy yelp, while the calliope in "I Want Out Of The Circus" gives it an endearing quirkiness. The ...

Contains a Camper Van Beethoven/Cracker/Monks Of Doom discography.
"Good Guys and Bad Guys," the opener on Camper Van Beethoven's self-titled third album, is one of those songs that makes you feel like you're 16, in love, tan, carefree, and intoxicated. For anyone interested in accessing these feelings regularly, CAMPER VAN BEETHOVEN is worth purchasing for this track alone. Fortunately, there is plenty of other fun to be had here (and if this eclectic California ensemble is anything, it's fun). Country, ska, punk, folk, Balkan ...
| | Brian Wilson Smile CD (2004)
Key Lime Pie CD music
$16.19 
Between 1967 and 2004, the SMILE sessions were pretty much the Dead Sea Scrolls of pop music. Well documented as head Beach Boy Brian Wilson's answer to the Beatles' masterpiece SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND (which was itself largely an answer to the Beach Boys' PET SOUNDS), the tracks laid down in '67 for the projected SMILE album were the furthest afield anyone nominally operating under the pop/rock umbrella had ever ventured. Notoriously, intraband conflict (Mike Love, in particular, found the Wilson/Van Dyke Parks-penned conceptual work too far out) kept the record from being released. With several oceans' worth of water under the bridge, Wilson finally decided to finish the aborted project three-and-a-half decades later, adhering closely to the original blueprints. The results ...
| | Jack McDuff Change Is Gonna Come / Double Barrelled Soul CD (1999)
Key Lime Pie music CDs
$10.59
It takes a bit of searching, but there are several soul-jazz gems on this 15-track compilation of organist Brother Jack McDuff's first and fourth releases on Atlantic. For much of 1966's A Change Is Gonna Come, the compact R&B instrumentals shuffle by, rarely building up enough steam to get the set cooking. The exceptions are the sextet performances with hard bopper George Coleman on tenor sax. Here the focus is on the blues, and the ...
