SEVEN SISTERS is a 1999 release by Swedish soul-pop singer Meja.

Not released in the U.S. until early 1999, Meja's Seven Sisters had already become a hit in Japan and her native Sweden. The music is mellow yet often danceable contemporary pop/rock with R&B and jazz inflections, slick production, and a perky, upbeat tone, a sound perfect for international consumption. Although Meja has a fairly supple voice, the lyrics are not quite up to the same level, ranging from simplistic, clichéd rhymes to mawkish sentimentality to awkward attempts at poetry. Take Seven Sisters for what it is at heart -- sunny, catchy bubblegum pop -- and the attempts at substance might actually become endearing, especially on guilty pleasures as strong as the jazzy pop tunes "Beautiful Girl" and "Caught Up in the Middle," which have bossa nova and jazz-rock fusion overtones, respectively, as well as charming Bacharach-ian horn arrangements. ~ Steve Huey

Japanese Re-Release Featuring 2 Bonus Tracks: Are You Ready, & Don'T Push The River.

Japanese edition adds two extra songs.

CD contains 2 bonus tracks.

Personnel: Meja (vocals); Douglas Carr (guitar, lap steel guitar, Wurlitzer piano, keyboards, synthesizer, bass, drums, percussion, background vocals); Janne Tanelli (guitar, keyboards, synthesizer, drums); Jonas Berggren (acoustic guitar, synthesizer, bass); Goran Flood (acoustic & electric guitars); Nick Malmestrom (acoustic guitar, background vocals); Mats Karlsson (slide guitar); Jonas Lindgard, Yiva Lunden-Welden, Per Fahlen, Beate Lemke (strings); Ronny Farsund (trumpet, flugelhorn); Anders Evaldsson (trombone); Martin Pihl (piano, Wurlitzer piano); Christer Karlsson (piano, Wurlitzer piano, Fender Rhodes piano); John Amatiello (keyboards, drums); Fredrik Bostom, Ulric Johansson (bass); Mats Persson (drums); Bryan Powell, Dob Malmestrom, Fred Johansson (background vocals).

Rolling Stone (6/10/99, p.125) - 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...Whether she's flirting with folk, lounge jazz or retropsychedelia, Meja is ultimately all about the hooks, and although they sound American-dumb on paper, they feel Scandinavian-smart in practice..."

Gov't Mule By A Thread CD  (2009)

Seven Sisters
CD $12.29  4.8 stars Top 50 Audio Samples
BY A THREAD is Gov't Mule's first studio album since HIGH & MIGHTY was issued in 2006. Since that time, bassist Andy Hess has been replaced by Jorgen Carlsson, though Hess appears on two tracks at the end of the album. Carlsson's playing style is much more aggressive than Hess', and is therefore closer - in spirit anyway - to Gov't Mule's original bassist, the late Allen Woody, though he possesses an adventurous sense of time and is harmonically more colorful than either Woody or Hess. Carlsson and drummer Matt Abst are a solid match, since Abst is a drummer used to shifting time signatures and allowing the unexpected in while still driving a band. The band's keyboardist and rhythm guitarist, Danny Louis, is a shape-shifter, playing to whatever is needed in a given track. His manner of coloring sounds ...

Seven Sisters
CD $9.29  3.7 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players. Along with Styx and REO Speedwagon, Journey ruled the charts and radio airwaves in the early '80s. And like the aforementioned bands, Journey began in the '70s, so obviously the compilers of its 1988 GREATEST HITS release had a lot of material to choose from. Journey's sound was a merger of hard rock, compliments of guitarist Neal Schon, and the melodic pop/ballads of singer Steve Perry. This resulted in such classic rock radio staples as "Any Way You Want It," "Separate Ways," "Open Arms," "Don't Stop Believin'," "Wheel in the Sky," and "Who's Crying Now," all included here. Greatest Hits is an excellent, thorough 14-track collection containing all of Journey's big hits, from 1978's "Wheel in the Sky" to 1986's "I'll Be Alright Without You." Although the songs aren't presented in chronological order and a handful of minor hits ("Suzanne," "Walks Like a Lady") ...

Dabrye One/Three CD  (2001) (Import)

Seven Sisters
CD $15.59  Audio Samples
One/Three, the first Dabrye release from Tadd Mullinix, is white funk lodged in a glacier. Clippity-clap-clack beats, inspired in part by Jay Dee, and deceptively melodic bonk-zaps form the groundwork of the set, a perfectly digestible LP at 10 tracks and 35 minutes that forms an ideal bridge between the abstract hip-hop of Mo' Wax and the shivery busted funk of early Kompakt. Unlike a common gaffe of the Mo' Wax stable, Dabrye gains inspiration -- rather than outright grave-robbing nostalgia -- from hip-hop production. You might hear a swift nod to something familiar, as in the latter half of the closing "Hot Mating Ritual," however there's little to conjure images of unlaced Adidas and furry hats. Remember That Beat this isn't; there's a lot more imagination at play. And since none ...
