World Of Music Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars UNIQUE COMPILATION
This is not the "standard" many hit collections glutting the market, as Connie charted over 60 in the US alone. The UK has released some great Lp tracks (in Connie's words, her finest work) and it shows. This is the Australian counterpart. The only change is in the cover but the songs are all there...her later and best work for MGM at her vocal peak and unequalled by any of her female peers. Her power, phrasing and control are impeccable. Just listen to "The Look Of Love", "Stardust" (the best by a female song stylist), "Am I Blue" and "My Heart Cries For you" just a few examples that you make you forget the recycled hits packages and realize she is one of the last great iconic interpretors of Pop American Standards still going strong today. One of the finest collections.

Laurie Records Story Vol. 2: The Ernie Maresca Years CD (2003) (Import) United Kingdom

World Of music CDs

$19.99
The 26 tracks on this anthology have two things in common: all were released on Laurie or affiliated labels, and all were co-written or written by Ernie Maresca (who is the featured artist on four of the songs, too). Maresca is most known as the composer or co-composer of Dion's "Runaround Sue," "The Wanderer," and "Lovers Who Wander," as well as for his own 1962 hit "Shout! Shout! (Knock Yourself Out)." But did ...

Britney Spears In The Zone/Britney CD (2003)

World Of songs

$14.15

On her 4th album, the omnipresent Britney Spears--with the aid of numerous collaborators and producers--has crafted a virtual soundtrack to her wild, club-hopping nights. Following up the media frenzy of her televised Madonna kiss, Britney kicks things off by unveiling a full-on collaboration with the Material Girl, "Me Against the Music." This party-fueled, dance-floor-ready anthem bookends IN THE ZONE with a bonus Bollywood-tinged remix, and both versions are emblematic of the album as a whole--energetic, assertive, and sexy. On the saucy "(I Got That) Boom ...

Five Point Plan Rare CD (2002) Import

World Of album

$34.89
The timing couldn't have been better for the release of Five Point Plan's second album, Rare, in 2002. The album fit right alongside the myriad other neo-soul albums flooding the market around this time, released in the wake of huge-selling albums and Grammy nominations (and wins) by Alicia Keys and India Arie. Despite the glut of neo-soul albums on the market at the time, the sudden interest in good old-fashioned soul music with a contemporary, urban edge no doubt worked in Five Point Plan's favor. And yes, the group caters to the neo-soul crowd on Rare. The tight arrangements and earthy playing of Five Point Plan's musicians -- Jordan Glasgow (keyboards), Tim Carter (drums, percussion), Michael Cruz (bass, background vocals), and David Metzner (guitar) -- that characterized the group's self-titled 1999 debut are still here, as are lead singer Latrice Barnett's sultry vocals. However, the group adds extra flavor to the mix, incorporating a roster of guest musicians -- most notably Merl Saunders on Hammond B-3 on "Take Me" -- who expand Five Point Plan's standard sound. These additional musicians help make Rare a much more dynamic and engaging album than the first Five Point Plan release; no two songs here sound alike. Overall, Rare finds the group moving forward, inching closer toward excellence without forsaking the attributes that made Five Point Plan such a wonderful group in the first place. ~ Jason Birchmeier The timing couldn't have been better for the release of Five Point Plan's second album, Rare, in 2002.

Kula Shaker K CD (1996)

World Of CD music

$12.79

Inital pressings of the U.S. release of K included a bonus CD single, TATTVA LUCKY 13 MIX. The Britpop quartet Kula Shaker appears to have raided the closets of its favorite bands in the making of its debut album. K contains a bluesy, retro ambience very much like The Stone Roses and Primal Scream. The full-throttled guitars sound like those of Oasis. And a hefty dose of Hindu mysticism runs rampant throughout--a la Cornershop. But Kula Shaker manages to make something original of all those borrowed parts. Rising above its influences, Kula Shaker creates a niche of Britpop in which transcendence is the goal. Amidst the blues-drenched guitars and the Hindi chanting, the band is hard at work building something spiritual and sensual. Kula ...
