| | Barrington Levy Prison Oval Rock CD Barrington Levy Discography of CDs
Reggae fans knew about Levy's vocal brilliance early in his career, especially his dynamic roots material and equally fervent love ballads and romantic tunes. The 10 tracks on this Ras set are from that period, when he was among the great crooners and pleaders in reggae. If you want anger and venom, there's the slashing fury of "Robber Man" and the title cut; those who prefer sensuality and suggestiveness will devour "Good Loving" and "Mary Long Tongue," while the religious zealots can delight in "Please Jah Jah." ~ Ron Wynn
Recorded at Channel One, Kingston, Jamaica.Option (5/29/92, p.116) - "...a wonderful reissue...Levy sounds sly, vulnerable, and ready to take the world...an overlooked gem..." Barrington Levy Prison Oval Rock Songs Prison Oval Rock Review

Purchase Prison Oval Rock CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Cassandra Wilson Blue Skies CD (1988) (Import)
Prison Oval Rock album
 $15.09 
On 1988's Blue Skies, Cassandra Wilson took her first step away from the home she had built with Steve Coleman's M-Base organization. She'd done standards before, all the way back to 1985's Songbook. There are no M-Base players on this JMT set. She fronts a very conventional trio comprised of pianist Mulgrew Miller, drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, and bassist Lonnie Plaxico. The last of these is very significant because it would be Plaxico who directed her very startling and focused transformation when she signed to Blue Note Records in 1993 and released Blue Light 'Til Dawn. The program is ...

| | Steel Pulse Earth Crisis CD (1984) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Prison Oval Rock CD music
$8.85
According to Steel Pulse front man David Hinds, Elektra Records informed the band--just prior to the 1984 recording of EARTH CRISIS--that they wanted the band to sound like then-popular, commercially oriented reggae artist Eddy Grant. Elektra's bid for a mainstream reggae cash-in helps explain the slick, highly polished sound of EARTH CRISIS. The breezy "Steppin' Out" and the bouncing, poppy "Tightrope" (both of which became permanent additions to the band's live repertoire) kick off the set, buttressed by bright synth lines and lush, layered vocal harmonies.
Yet Steel Pulse's particular skill has always been in giving lock-step reggae grooves singable melodies and a smooth, accessible patina. In this way, EARTH CRISIS is one of the band's most emblematic albums, a fact reflected in its great commercial success. Admirably, Steel Pulse maintains ...

| | Dinah Shore Dinah Sings, Previn Plays/Somebody Loves Me CD (1998) (Import)
Prison Oval Rock album
$22.35
Two classic Dinah Shore albums on one CD! DINAH SINGS, PREVIN PLAYS and SOMEBODY LOVES ME features 20 tracks in all, including "I've Got You Under My Skin" and "I Only Have Eyes For You."
Dinah Shore was an established TV star but rather forgotten as a recording artist when she cut the two albums reissued on this CD in 1960, which may help explain why they were not big sellers. It certainly had nothing to do with the quality of the music. Both sessions feature collaborations with André Previn: on the first ten songs (actually cut after the last ten), Previn is the pianist ...
| | Burning Spear Hail H.I.M. CD (1980) Remastered
Prison Oval Rock CD music
$8.85
When Rodney entered Tuff Gong Studios to cut HAIL H.I.M., not only did he borrow St. Ann's Parish native Bob Marley's recording digs, but brought Marley's band the Wailers in as a backup band. The result is a warm-sounding record in which Spear continues delivering his message of Jah and Rastafari, starting with a picture of Emperor Haile Selsassie I on horseback that graces the album cover. When Spear isn't paying homage to the unifying concept of Pan-Africanism ("African Teacher," "African Postman," "Cry Blood Africans"), he's ...

Prison Oval Rock CD music
$13.49
The soundtrack to IL POSTINO includes celebrity poetry readings which were not part of the original motion picture.
The theme tune from this movie is gorgeous: sweet, melancholy, unmistakably Italian. It won composer Luis Bacalov a well-deserved Best Dramatic Score Oscar. But buyers should be cautious about slapping down 16 dollars for this CD, for two reasons: First of all, while it's not easy to get tired of that poignant melody, this CD tries its darndest to get the listener good and sick of it. The leitmotif is repeated in almost every one of the 30 tracks: in the piano version, the harpsichord and string version, the guitar and bandoneon version, etc. The ...
