Best Of Lee Greenwood album
 $14.45   
After the dark and chilling themes of 2006's BLACK CADILLAC, which saw Rosanne Cash dealing with the deaths of her mother, Vivian Liberto, her father, Johnny Cash, and her stepmother, June Carter Cash -- all of whom passed within a two-year span -- one might assume that her next project would move into an even deeper level of bleakness, but with THE LIST, it's immediately clear that she has instead found a more measured place to stand. It's a lovely and redemptive outing that looks back to go forward. When Cash turned 18, her father, alarmed that his daughter only knew the songs that were getting played on the radio, gave her a list of what he considered 100 essential American songs; Cash kept that list, and now she's drawn on it for this wonderfully nuanced outing that brims with a kind of ...

| | Best Of Sammi Smith CD (1996)
Best Of Lee Greenwood music CDs
$9.69
Sammi Smith was a difficult singer to categorize. Straddling the line between lush country-pop and idiosyncratic outlaw country, she didn't belong to either world, which didn't effect the quality of her music but at times could mean that she slipped through the cracks between critical acclaim and commercial sales. She didn't want either, but neither arrived at the level she deserved, as Varese Sarabande's excellent 1996 compilation The Best of Sammi Smith illustrates. Smith's big break came in 1971 with her rendition of Kris Kristofferson's "Help Me Make It Through the Night." The song had been kicking around for several years and had been recorded many times before Smith's aching, wearily sensual version finally made it a crossover smash, bringing it to number one on the country charts and within the sights of the top of the pop charts. Her version wasn't just a hit, its production -- which managed to feel rich and opulent while retaining ...
| | Cheb Mami Meli Meli CD (1998)
Best Of Lee Greenwood songs
$16.65
Drawing on various world music influences, Algerian pop artist Cheb Mami's MELI MELI features a collaboration with rapper K-Mel on "Parisien Du Nord." MELI MELI marks the beginning of wider notoriety and musical scope for the artist and includes the album's title track and "Bekatni."
Though Algerian king of Rai Cheb Mami first came to the attention of most U.S. listeners through his hit collaboration with Sting, he was building a substantive career long before "Desert Rose." In the aftermath of that tune, many new listeners will probably turn their attention to MELI MELI, and all the better both for them and for Mami. Though he maintains roots in traditional Algerian music, as exemplified by the acoustic guitar- and accordion-driven "Bledi," Mami is ultimately a modernist, who brings the sonorities and shadings of his country's musical history into the present day. Mami's keening, melismatic vocal style cascades over very contemporary, R&B-influenced arrangements full of drum loops, sequenced synthesizer lines, and sophisticated studiocraft. There's even a bit of rapping interspersed with the singing on "Parisien Du Nord." Still, no matter how updated the sound gets, there's enough Algerian flavor to keep MELI MELI sounding sufficiently exotic to American newcomers and familiar to Rai enthusiasts.
Rai in the 1980s was Algeria's punk and rap, a music of cultural revolution and youthful defiance. The many "Chebs" (cheb roughly means "the young") ...

| | Tom Pacheco There Was A Time CD (2002)
Best Of Lee Greenwood CD music
$12.25
Tom Pacheco is an artist with something to say. Somewhere between a singer/songwriter and a protest singer, he concerns himself with issues ranging from the brevity of life to the environment. When the album opens with, "Under a plain smothered by shopping malls," many listeners will feel comfortable pegging Pacheco as another left-leaning folksinger with good -- though unrealistic -- intentions. The remainder of the song, however, reads more like a poem, offering a prosaic rendering of the streams, grass, and sun of the plains, combining lyricism with politics. In "If I Could Come Back," the singer wishes for no more than to return as a "summer night," while "What We Left Behind" longs for a simpler way of living, one more connected to community and less connected to the television. Even when Pacheco wears his heart on his liberal sleeve, he adds a poetic touch to his compositions. "Butterfly" immortalizes Julia Hill's two-year struggle to save old-growth redwoods, while "Heroes" speaks more generally about the need for contemporary champions. Most of these tracks are simply arranged with pianos and guitars offering a gentle underpinning to Pacheco's poignant lyrics. When a track utilizes a noisy drum kit as on "What About Us," it's to emphasize the angry lyric. While political progressives will no doubt be attracted to Pacheco's committed vision, anyone who enjoys good music and expressive lyrics will also want to pick up a copy. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr.
Veteran singer-songwriter Tom Pacheco wears his world on his sleeve. In a career spanning more than 35 years, over a dozen albums and 2500 original songs, Pacheco has addressed social and political issues, depicted a gallery of real and imagined characters from the past, present and future, and created a living treasury of unforgettable images. On "There Was a Time," Tom's twelfth solo album and first ...
