Purchase Special Delivery CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Bootsy Collins Ahh...The Name Is Bootsy, Baby! CD (1977)
Special Delivery album
 $7.89    
One of the key figures in the development of funk, Bootsy Collins played bass in James Brown's JB's in the late '60s and early '70s and was later an integral member of George Clinton's Parliament/Funkadelic ensemble. Collins' approach to the bass is like none other. He plays it like a guitar, adding long, dazzling fills while simultaneously anchoring the band with a heavy, elastic bottom-end. During his P-Funk tenure, Collins' personality (exemplified in both his playing and his freakishly glamorous on-stage persona) became so popular that he soon began his own outfit--Bootsy's Rubber Band.
1977's AHH...mines the psychedelicized grooves born of the P-Funk formula--adding equal parts superior musicianship, dance floor abandon, space-age thematics, and a silliness intended to subvert and liberate. Tracks like "Rubber Duckie" are unabashed dance anthems while "The Pinocchio Theory" amends the P-Funk philosophy with another anti-rule ("Fake the funk and your nose will grow"). AHH...has more than its share of slow-tempo, ballad-like numbers, but killer bass solos from the man himself make even these worthwhile. In all, this is vintage Bootsy Collins.

| | Alanis Morissette MTV Unplugged CD (1999)
Special Delivery CD music
$8.89
Though Morissette is known for songs driven by big, hard-hitting production, her larger-than-life sound translates surprisingly well to a stripped-down, acoustic-based approach. Backed by acoustic guitar, piano, and strings (and a tasteful rhythm section), Alanis scales down the grand scale of her arrangements for a more intimate, directly communicative effect. Listening to the almost gentle version of the formerly piledriving "You Oughta Know" will provide something of a revelation for Morissette's fans. The scathing lyrics achieve an even more cathartic effect with the contrasting feel of the music, and the singer/songwriter is revealed as a folk-rocker at heart.
Her previously noted preference for the confessional mode is further underlined here by an earnest version of the Police's soul-searching plaint "King of Pain." Thankfully, Morissette has enough common sense to avoid changing it to "Queen of Pain." The unfettered swoops and glides of her vocal style have more room to flow here as well, and Morissette sounds a bird in full flight throughout.

| | Lily White No Pork, Long Line CD (1997)
Special Delivery music CDs
$13.39
Lily White has fairly original tones on tenor and alto, and her music ranges from hard bop to post-bop playing that borders on the avant-garde, while not being shy of melody. Her quirky sense of humor can be heard in spots during this CD where the mood suddenly shifts or some odd sounds occur. White and her quartet (guitarist David Phelps, the superb pianist Michael Jefry Stevens, bassist Chris Dahlgren and drummer Eric Halvorson) perform nine of the leader's originals, a song by Phelps, and two brief free improvisations. Trombonist ...
