MCA Special Products' Soul Master is a budget-priced compilation of highlights from Gene Chandler's late-'60s and early-'70s recordings. Although Chandler is more celebrated for his Vee-Jay recordings, none of which are available here, these smooth soul cuts -- such as "Nothing Can Stop Me," "From the Teacher to the Preacher," and "Groovy Situation" -- are quite enticing and are given a good, affordable showcase here, even if the compilation is far from comprehensive. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Personnel: Gene Chandler (vocals).

Soul Master
$9.69 Gene Chandler has enjoyed some widely spaced hits across several different styles and musical eras, which means that any truly representative compilation of his most popular work has got to be very thorough and very ambitious. This 20-song collection, offering just under an hour of material, isn't really either -- but it still has some listening virtues. The producers give a very sketchy overview of Chandler's early-'60s history with Vee-Jay Records, represented by just three songs, the million-seller "Duke of Earl," of course, and the more modest successes "Rainbow" and "Man's ...

| | Turners Corner CD (2005)
Soul Master
$12.69 The self-titled debut album by Seattle indie trio Turners Corner owes a little more than geography with fellow Washingtonians Minus the Bear. Although guitarist/keyboardist Todd Maloy doesn't share the other band's fascination with speedy neck-tapping guitar solos, his songs are similarly odd amalgamations of indie pop hooks, post-rock noodling, and obscure, oblique lyrics. For example, opening track "Balloon Ride" is a catchy guitar-and-synth tune that sounds not unlike a slightly more experimental version of the Shins, but it's underlaid with bits of distorted walkie-talkie speech with little obvious relation to the rest of the song. Like that song, the entire album skates right on the edge of being annoyingly precious and clever-clever. However, Maloy has an appealing singing voice that forsakes the needling whininess of so many of his indie rock brethren, and although some of the songs have an annoying tendency to wander about for 45 to 60 seconds too long near the end, he writes some good melodies. Turners Corner are the sort of band who, once they get all of the artsy stuff out of their system, could make a really good, brainy pop album along the lines of the Loud Family. This album isn't there yet, but it bodes well for future development. ~ Stewart Mason
Turners Corner BIO:From what I gather, Turners Corner are three nice boys from the isolated streets of Woodinville WA. Feeling it was time to leave the handy mart parking lot to pursue bigger dreams, they moved on to the much larger city of Seattle. Fronted by the singer/song writer emotional stylings of Todd Maloy, his alternative roots keep him grounded in progressive chords and subtle changes (he will continue to work on breaking out of this pattern). Zebulon, the bass player draws his talents from various power trios (from the north but not Triumph) and is driven by the classic lines of such influential players as Jaco Pastorius and Chris Squire (Zeb has always been a Yes man). Stroking the skins is Brian D. (The 'D' is for Drum Dysfunction) He combines straight beats with conflictory apposing thumb type rhythms and is influenced by such greats as Ginger Baker and Karen Carpenter. If Stewart Copeland had studied under him, he would have perfected the "hitting the high-hat ...
