Magnetic Fields 69 Love Songs CDs (1999) Box Set

Cave

$31.59

Each CD in this box set is also available separately on Merge (166, 167 & 168). Originally envisioned as a 100-song stage revue but cut down to 69 songs (as Stephin Merritt explained, "That was the first love-related number I could think of") and released on three CDs under the name of the first of Merritt's many musical projects (also including the 6ths, Future Bible Heroes, and the Gothic Archies), 69 LOVE SONGS is a sprawling masterpiece of alternately romantic and rueful tunes. Where each previous Magnetic Fields albums had a specific musical identity, 69 LOVE SONGS leaps casually through genres that include show tunes, jazz, country, punk, techno, and '80s-style synth pop, somehow managing throughout to sound like no one but the Magnetic Fields. Though the three CDs were originally released as a box set enclosed in a special slipcase with an exclusive booklet, Merge Records also released the three 23-song discs separately as 69 LOVE SONGS, Volumes One, Two and Three. Includes a 76-page booklet. 3-CD Box;**No Returns**LTD.Ed The Magnetic Fields: Stephin Merritt (vocals, acoustic, electric, classical, & steel guitars, ukelele, mandolin, violin, penny whistle, recorder, melodica, acoustic & electric pianos, organ, keyboards, synthesizer, acoustic & electric percussion); Claudia Gonson (vocals, guitar, piano, drums, percussion, whistling); ...

Death Ambient Synaesthesia CD (1999)

Cave

$12.75

When you consider the players that make up Death Ambient, it is not surprising that they manage to put out such interesting music. Guitar innovator Fred Frith, the amazing bassist Kato Hideki, and legendary percussionist Ikue Mori combine efforts to issue a sound that is often called ambient noise, but has more texture and complexity than almost any other music under that label. As talented as Frith and Hideki are, Mori is the true creative core of this band's sound, emitting a myriad of sounds from her drum machines -- delicate bells, chimes, and rattles as well as aggressive, metallic groans and flutters. Frith and Hideki also show great range, grinding through walls of guitar sound, then stepping back and leaving notes on the open spaces of songs like drops in a pool of water. The result is a sound which sometimes sounds nightmarish, but more often evokes beauty and terror at the same time. This record is a fine follow-up to Death Ambient's ...

Talvin Singh Ok CD (1998)

Cave

$11.65

Fusions of Indian music and Western dance have generally been lumped under the catch-all term "Bhangra" (actually a specific style of popular dance music traditionally associated with wedding parties in Pakistan and Northern India). However, tabla player Talvin Singh's solo debut OK shares a much stronger affinity with the musical structure of a classical Indian raga. Singh doesn't simply add Western club beats behind previously existing Indian music through sampling or remixing. Rather, he exploits the inherent tendencies of "intelligent" drum-and-bass and classical Indian music (ethereal chords and complex time signatures respectively) to find a natural point of intersection between the two, thereby developing an entirely new style. Much more than any contemporaneous examples of "world-dance," this style recalls the fusion tablaist Badal Roy explored on records like Miles Davis' ON THE CORNER. OK echoes those notorious sessions of Miles' fusion era not only in its moments of brilliance and spirit of unedited improvisation, but also in the occasional self-indulgent mess. But while much of the material here cries out for editing, it also retains Miles' capacity to open countless new doors for the genres of music it touches.

The Sound of Music CD (1959) Original Broadway Cast

Music composed by Richard Rodgers. Lyrics written by Oscar Hammerstein. Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by Darcy M. Proper and Dawn Frank. This is the 30th Anniversary edition of the classic 1965 soundtrack. The track order has been reconfigured from the original release to better reflect the original film narrative. Music composed by Richard Rodgers. Lyrics written by Richard Rogers & Oscar Hammerstein, Jr. Music composed by Richard Rogers. Lyrics written by Oscar Hammerstein. This 35th Anniversary Edition of THE SOUND OF MUSIC includes a remastered version of the original soundtrack as well as a bonus disc of longer or different versions of the songs and a spoken segment with Richard Rodgers. Multi-million sales, a spell of 16 weeks at the top of the US chart, and winning Gold Disc and Grammy Awards were fitting rewards for this memorable recording of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II's much-loved musical which opened on Broadway in November 1959. The show's stars, Mary Martin and Theodore Bikel, were in fine vocal form, and led the excellent cast through the score's highlights, which included `My Favourite Things', `Do-Re-Mi', and `Edelweiss' - the last song that Rodgers and Hammerstein wrote together before the latter's death in 1960. One of the best-selling albums of all time, the original soundtrack for the film version of Rodgers & Hammerstein's THE SOUND OF MUSIC is above all a showcase for the formidable talents of Julie Andrews. She plays the novitiate Maria, governess and eventual mother to Includes liner ...

Gidon Kremer - Hommage À Piazzolla CD (1996)

Cave

$13.05

This disc was nominated for the 1997 Grammy Award for "Best Small Ensemble Performance." Selections recorded July 1995 at Lockenhaus Castle and January 1996 at Studio Guillaume Tell, Paris, France. From the violinist and Piazzolla fanatic Gidon Kremer comes this album of works by Piazzolla, along with one song in tribute to the legend. He covers a decent range of Piazzolla's work, moving equally well between slower milongas and faster tangos. The album starts out with the relatively somber, but quite dramatic "Milonga en re." It then moves on to a more upbeat set with "Vardarito" and the grandiose "Oblivion." Then comes "Escualo," which has something nearly akin to a march driving it. The more nostalgic tone of "Café 1930" immediately follows, snapping the listener back into a somber mood. The grand "Concierto para quinteto" makes an appearance, followed by "Soledad" and the deeper, darker sound of "Buenos Aires hora cero." "Celos" follows, to be followed itself by Jerry Peterburshsky's tribute to Piazzolla, "El sol sueno." Many of the attributes of Piazzolla's compositions make themselves apparent in this tribute, though the strings are in places somewhat more standard than Piazzolla's music might normally lead one to be accustomed to. The album finishes on the aptly titles "Grand Tango," for simply violin and piano. Kremer is among a small handful of musicians that are able to aptly evoke the power of the music of Piazzolla to come along since the death of Piazzolla (Yo-yo Ma's masterful album of Piazzolla works also numbers with Kremer). The passion and emotion created by Piazzolla's tangos are performed nearly to perfection here, with the only downside being the absence of Piazzolla himself. The ensemble ...
