Rumours Carry More Weight Than Fact: The Best of Cock Sparrer CD

Rumours Carry More Weight Than Fact: The Best of Cock Sparrer album for sale Brian Hyland's "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka-Dot Bikini" is one of those songs that straddles the line between silly and annoying, but the public thought highly enough of it to make it a number one hit in 1960. Listeners expecting a full menu of similar novelties will be surprised by Hyland's Greatest Hits. Spanning the years 1960-1970, Greatest Hits consists mostly of Hyland's folk-pop from the mid- to late '60s, concluding with his 1970 hit version of the Impressions' "Gypsy Woman." Hyland's later singles seemed to aspire to "seriousness," although the aura of bubblegum pop remained regardless of the material. Most of these 18 tracks were charting hits although only three cracked the Billboard Top Ten. ~ Greg Adams Audio Remasterers: Dan Hersch; Bill Inglot. Liner Note Author: Todd Everett.

Rumours Carry More Weight Than Fact: The Best of Cock Sparrer CD music The sophomore effort by Düsseldorf-based duo Stefan Schwander and Michael Scheibenreiter comes four years after their debut album, which the pair characterized as "dub'n'bass." On Good Old Music the focus is on more dance-friendly beats; in fact, almost every track revolves around a basic, house-derived, four-on-the-floor rhythmic structure -- the result being that the album isn't terribly rhythmically interesting. But what fills in the cracks between the thudding regularity of those beats is frequently much more so. "Chic Plaza," with its clucky guitars and pleasingly wanky string arrangement, harks back to the disco era explicitly enough to make you wonder if the song title is a deliberate pun. "Last Night..." is a swinging number built around what sounds like (but probably isn't) a sample of someone sniffing; "Bilk Madness" is pleasant if unexceptional, but "Carpet Sweeper" is a quirky riot of goofy offbeats and "Soul Made Pling" is downright lovely. The album ends with a hidden tenth track titled "Dark Horse Twinkles" -- a surprisingly dark and trip-hoppy selection that turns out to be one of the best and most interesting on the program. Maybe it portends yet another change of direction for Swimmingpool's third effort. ~ Rick Anderson Swimmingpool: Stefan Schwander, Michael Scheibenreiter.

Rumours Carry More Weight Than Fact: The Best of Cock Sparrer songs Time to play some simplistic, reductive "Name the Influence" games with the current crop of Scandinavian art rockers. If the Soundtrack of Our Lives owe much of their sound to Pink Floyd and the Rolling Stones; the Dipsomaniacs to the Kinks and the Creation; Motorpsycho to the Who and the early Soft Machine, and Sigur Ros to whale songs and solo Robert Wyatt, then Sweden's Thirdimension owes a debt to -- well, actually, all of them, to some extent. Which, counterintuitively, makes Thirdimension a lot harder to categorize than any of those other bands, and makes their second album so much fun to listen to. For all the spacy psychedelic tendencies skirling around the edges of these songs, Bjorn Stegmann is too clever a songwriter to keep them from overshadowing the tunes' essential melodic strengths, from the power-poppy rush of overlapping vocals on "Mondaymachine" to the delicate mopery and surprisingly affecting lyrics of "Sore Lips." Overall, Permanent Holiday is a much stronger album than 1998's Protect Us From What We Want, with more consistent and varied songwriting and more assured arrangements than that already-impressive debut. ~ Stewart Mason Audio Mixer: Christoffer Lundquist. Recording information: Aerosol Grey Machine, Volisjo, Swe; AGM; One Plug Studios, New York, NY, Unites States.
