I Did It Again CD (2000)
Puccini: Turandot At The Forbidden City / Mehta, Et Al
 $8.99   
OOPS!... I DID IT AGAIN was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album. "Oops!...I Did It Again" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
This second album by the former Mouseketeer turned nymphet heartthrob breaks little new ground compared to BABY ONE MORE TIME. The formula here remains, deliberately, the same: a candy-colored mix of Eurodance, hip-hop, and old-fashioned pop ballads. As before, the lyrics split the difference between "Baby, I love you so bad," as in "Can't Make You Love Me," and "Sorry, I think of you just as a friend," in the title song.
There are also some genuinely amusing moments, as in the conversational finale of "Oops!" in which Britney, after being informed that her boyfriend has recovered the jewel the old lady dropped into the ocean at the end of the TITANIC movie, replies "Oh, you shouldn't have." Most of the stuff here is, of course, transparently disposable pop, but to give Spears her due, she's a far, far better singer than any of the mall-rat pop stars of the late '80s.

| | Vanessa-Mae Storm CD (1998)
Puccini: Turandot At The Forbidden City / Mehta, Et Al
$11.69 
Former classical violinist Vanessa-Mae follows her pop debut album, THE VIOLIN PLAYER, with another energetic marriage of classical music, pop, and techno beats. Most of the songs on STORM are lively instrumentals, wild remakes of classical pieces like Bach's "Partita in E," whose opening movement finds new life here as "Bach Street Preludes." In the liner notes, Vanessa-Mae ...
| | Lyle Lovett Step Inside This House CDs (1998)
Puccini: Turandot At The Forbidden City / Mehta, Et Al
$16.25 
STEP INSIDE THIS HOUSE was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk Album.
In a move similar to Nanci Griffith's OTHER VOICES recordings, Lovett assembled two discs worth of songs by his favorite Texas country/folk songwriters, putting his own personal spin on the tunes that make up STEP INSIDE THIS HOUSE. While Lovett developed into a peer of Guy Clark, Vince Bell and the other songwriters he covers here, 'twas not always thus. The young Lovett grew up worshipping at the altar of these great composers, and it's that reverence that gives the album an aura of humility and respect.
Lovett's not afraid to rearrange some of these songs to suit his sound, but mostly he's concerned with getting to the heart of these tunes, so little here is radically recast. Townes Van Zandt and Walter Hyatt, both formative influences on Lovett who've passed away in the last few years, are showcased most prominently, as Lovett tackles four songs by each. For the uninitiated, STEP INSIDE THIS HOUSE is the perfect primer on the wealth of musical riches from the Lone Star State. It also happens to be a pretty damn good Lyle Lovett album, and one that shows Lyle ...
| | Beatles Abbey Road CD (1969)
Puccini: Turandot At The Forbidden City / Mehta, Et Al
$16.15
ABBEY ROAD, recorded in the summer of 1969, was the last album recorded by the Beatles (LET IT BE was released in 1970, but recorded in early '69).
After the laborious disorganization and infighting that characterized early 1969's LET IT BE sessions (as famously captured on film), the fractious four were willing to let George Martin take the reins and to work with him as a cohesive unit for the much more succinct production of their (and the decade's) swan song, ABBEY ROAD. The superb performances make the album an ...
| | Whitney Houston My Love Is Your Love CD (1998)
Puccini: Turandot At The Forbidden City / Mehta, Et Al
$12.79
MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best R&B Album. "It's Not Right But It's Okay" won the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. "It's Not Right But It's Okay" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. "Heartbreak Hotel" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal and for Best R&B Song.
Whitney Houston's voice is a marvel of technical perfection. Equally at home with pop, R&B or Gospel, Houston exerts unprecedented control over her celebrated pipes, moving through a song like a graceful bird in flight. It is this quality that makes MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE such a consistently satisfying work. With a talent like hers, there's no need for Houston to stick to any one formula, so MY LOVE is all over the stylistic map. There's a novel update of the rock & roll classic "Heartbreak Hotel" enlivened by guest appearances from Faith Evans and Kelly Price. There's the no-nonsense ...
