| | Rocket CD - Import Rocket Discography of CDs
An early-'80s studio outfit assembled by producer Ray Rock and featuring the vocals of Crown Heights Affair member Ray "Johnny" Reid, Rocket's self-titled, seven-song set is most notable for the serene, summery strains of "Here Comes My Love," a mid-tempo club jaunt replete with a catchy, softly sung melody and a sublimely funky, zesty rhythm section (note that the remixed 12" version included here outshines the original version -- also included). Otherwise, the material is par for the course as '80s dance music goes, with routine numbers like "Come Together" and "Groove Thing" offering feel-good arrangements, but nothing distinguishable or long-lasting in melody or vocals. The only number that comes close to matching the caliber of "Here Comes My Love" is the festive party number "I Wanna Know," featuring a stylish, sexy co-lead performance by disco diva Carol Douglas. Unidisc's CD reissue contains several versions of "Here Comes My Love." ~ Justin M. Kantor

Handsome 25-year-old César (Eduardo Noriega) has it all--a successful career, expensive cars, a swank bachelor's pad, and an endless string of beautiful and willing women. Unfortunately, he can't get rid of his latest conquest, Nuria (Najwa Nimri) soon enough. When she crashes his birthday party, César uses his best friend Pelayo's stunningly attractive girlfriend, Sofia (Penélope Cruz), as a means to her. The next morning, Nuria is waiting in her car outside his apartment and manages to coax him into the vehicle.

| | Conrad Herwig Heart Of Darkness CD (1998) (Import) Netherlands
Rocket music CDs
$18.69
On trombonist Conrad Herwig's Criss Cross debut, he has put together a group consisting of tenor saxophonist Walt Weiskopf, vibraphonist Stefon Harris, pianist Bill Charlap, bassist Peter Washington, and drummer Billy Drummond to perform seven Herwig originals and one standard, "The Lamp Is Low." Herwig, a veteran of the bands of Toshiko Akiyoshi, Eddie Palmieri, and Joe Henderson, among others, is known for his impressive technique and imagination, which he displays through this recording, and proves himself a writer of challenging compositions. Also, the addition of Harris' vibes to the group gives the compositions a unique sound. Highlights include the multi-tempo title track; "Inner Sincerity," a medium fast tune with a Latin-ish feel; "The Instigator," a medium blues; and "Tilt," the session's up-tempo burner. This is a welcome addition to the Herwig discography. ~ Greg Turner

| | Ray Parker, Jr Greatest Hits CD (1993)
Rocket songs
$7.59
Though it isn't sequenced in chronological order -- in fact, it's sequenced a little bewilderingly -- Greatest Hits is nevertheless an excellent summation of Ray Parker, Jr.'s biggest hits; containing not just solo smashes like "Ghostbusters" and "The Other Woman," but also songs he sang during his time with Raydio. So, even if it could be presented better, it nevertheless gives fans exactly what they need. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Rocket songs
$13.99
Everything seems to work for Julie Kelly on Everything I Love. Her voice is in excellent form, the backup provided by the Mike Wofford Trio with occasional spots for tenor-saxophonist Bob Sheppard are tasteful and sympathetic, and the material is consistently rewarding. The songs range from Julie Kelly's own to Larry Goldings' "Moonbird," some Brazilian pieces, two Joni Mitchell songs, to a variety of veteran standards. The interpretations are heartfelt and there is variety in tempos and moods. All in ...
