(2 Customer Reviews)
"Rollercoaster" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Instrumental Performance.
Keith Urban is Australian, but listening to his debut self-titled solo CD, you'd swear he was raised somewhere south of the Mason-Dixon line. Just as the Beatles mimicked the American accents of their musical heroes, Urban, the former leader of the group the Ranch, adopts the twang of the country stars he heard growing up Down Under. Urban's brand of country includes soulful vocals; a nice mix of acoustic and steel guitars, banjo, fiddles, and mandolins; and some fine songwriting, from Urban, Steve Wariner, and even two former members of the Go-Gos's (!) The subject here, with few exceptions, is love in all its aspects, from the hooky opening cut, "It's a Love Thing," to the gorgeous ballad "Your Everything," to the Cajun stomp of "I Wanna Be Your Man (Forever)." Urban's excellent guitar playing throughout the CD is tasteful and understated, but adds immeasurably to the arrangements. When he really cuts loose, on the instrumental "Rollercoaster," you can hear why acts like the Dixie Chicks and Garth Brooks tapped him to play on their CDs. Overall, KEITH URBAN offers a taste of what this talented singer, songwriter, and guitarist might do in the future.
Principally recorded at Javelina Recording Studios, Nashville, Tennessee.

Keith Urban Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)   Handsome and Beautiful Music I bought this CD and it is very good. I didn't think an Australian man could make country music this good. He is actually a very good instrumentalist as well as a very good singer. Submitted by jejr9 (Irvine) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

Purchase Keith Urban CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Toby Keith Pull My Chain CD (2001) Enhanced CD
Keith Urban album
$12.59 Curtis Young, Scotty Emerick, Curtis Wright (background vocals).
From the breezy pop melody of opening cut "I'm Just Talkin' About Tonight" to the near-rap delivery of "I Wanna Talk About Me," it's clear that country traditionalism is not high on Toby Keith's list of priorities for PULL MY CHAIN. While this won't make Keith any friends among the hardcore honky-tonk crowd, that's not his audience to begin with. Those who like their country mixed with pop-rock (the aforementioned album-opener), soul ("I Can't Take You Anywhere"), and delicate, piano-based ballads worthy of Elton John ("Yesterday's Rain," "You Didn't Have as Much to Lose") will find much to admire about Keith's eclecticism. Tying it all together is Keith's friendly, guy-next-door voice, equally able to portray humor, lust, heartache, and pure exuberance. ...

| | VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)
Keith Urban music CDs
$6.19 This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of RIVERDANCE. There's also a lovely rendition of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" that's topped only by Ron Wood's reappearance ...
| | Keith Urban Golden Road CD (2002)
Keith Urban songs
$9.59 Considering that Keith Urban grew up in New Zealand and cultivates an image that's more Kelly Clarkson than Roy Clark, one might be tempted to doubt his abilities when it comes to Nashville hit making. On GOLDEN ROAD, however, Urban delivers a solid set of contemporary country with more panache and chops than many of his American-born, cowboy-hatted contemporaries. A virtuoso picker who credits Lindsay Buckingham as a primary influence, Urban has fashioned a highly melodic country/alternative-rock fusion that's equal parts Fleetwood Mac, Rodney Crowell, and Third Eye Blind. On several tunes, twangy vocals and banjo blend seamlessly with distorted Lynyrd Skynryd-style guitar leads and the pounding drums of rocker Matt Chamberlain (David Bowie, Tori Amos, Dave Navarro). In addition, Urban wisely avoids using Music City cookie-cutter material, instead favoring mature tunes from left-of-center stalwarts such as Crowell and Radney Foster. Overall, GOLDEN ROAD offers few real surprises, but serves as a welcome reminder of Nashville's occasional ability to produce music that's simultaneously slick and substantial.

| | Quiet Riot - 89' Live In Japan DVD (1989)
Keith Urban CD music
$7.15 89' Live in Japan was filmed during a tumultuous period for Quiet Riot. With Paul Shortino at the helm, the band quickly displayed their versatility and resilience, and rocked crowds the world over. This footage serves as a glimpse into an interesting chapter of one of the greatest Metal bands of all time. Bonus Video - "Stay With Me." Track list: Party All Night, I'm Falling, Stay With Me Tonight, Run To You, The Wild And The Young, The Joker, Drum Solo, Coppin' A Feel, King Of The Hill, Cum On Feel The Noise.
Taking the heavy metal world by storm in the early 1980s with their stadium-rock anthem "Cum on Feel the Noize," Quiet Riot's career mirrored that old adage epitomized by rock and roll: "live fast and die young." Rising quickly to heights of stardom that shocked both the public and the band themselves, their trajectory was fraught with obstacles that prevented them from assuming iconic status in rock history. Frontman Kevin DuBrow, who supremely embodied the rock star bad attitude with his loud mouth and quick temper, had difficulty dealing with success, and even more difficulty dealing with the failure experienced by their debut album's successor, CRITICAL CONDITION. Aptly named, it was a rushed attempt to capitalize on the group's current popularity, and marked the beginning of Dubrow's seemingly systematic burning of bridges the band had struggled to build, constantly insulting press, record label, fans and other ...

| | Stillpoint Maps Without Edges CD (1998)
Keith Urban songs
$14.59 Stillpoint is a trio of veteran ambient musicians -- Martin Franklin, from TUU; Eddie Sayer, from Lights in a Fat City; and Nick Parkin, a solo artist and frequent collaborator with Franklin. Maps Without Edges is their debut -- and thus far only -- CD. The original release contained five tracks, three of which were parts of "Blade Water Stone." This reissue combined those parts into one track and added a track titled "Maps 2 and 3." In both editions, this disc is deep tribal desert ambience. The rhythms are subtle, so the CD borders on tribal minimalism. A deep drone serves as a driver for the soundscapes. The rhythm is part of the atmosphere, which is full of blazing heat and shimmering mirages. This CD is a desert ambience classic. It will appeal to fans of Todd Fletcher, Steve Roach, Ma Ja Le, Biff Johnson and ...
