This is a killer little best of by the undersung soulman Brenton Wood, who may be best known for his "Oogum, Boogum," hit, but laid out so much more worth hearing. In fact, it's nearly a crime that there isn't anything out there form his actual album catalog. That said, Wood's diversity is here, from his Sam Cooke remake of "A Change Is Gonna Come," to his wild read of "Psychotic Reaction," to Johnny Mathis' "Runnin' Wild." But the true jewel in this budget compilation is "Gimme a Little Sign," a gritty, greasy, heart puncher that wowed 'em in the aisles every single time. In fact, this cut is so indispensable, it's worth the price of this little baby all on its own. ~ Thom Jurek

 $7.79   
It's hard not to hear Brenton Wood's biggest hit, "Gimme Little Sign," and not be convinced that it very well might be the greatest single ever cut. It relies on no one thing -- the song is slinky, surprising, and seductive, blessed with a perfect production (the organ break in ...
| | Vince Gill Next Big Thing CD (2003)
Oogum Boogum Song And Other Hits CD music
$12.59
"Next Big Thing" won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance.
This album's title is an ironic one, since Vince Gill has spent plenty of time as the Big Thing in country music. He started out as a hot-pickin' bluegrass guitarist before going solo in the mid-'80s. Some 20 years down the line, Gill has nothing to prove but still plenty to say. As always, his sound is a mix of Rodney Crowell-style '80s New Traditionalism, white soul, and pop, with a touch of that bluegrass influence coming through in his keening tenor. He's still the Mr. Nice Guy of contemporary country, soft-pedaling both the songs and the singing in a manner not unlike the Timothy B. Schmit portion of the Eagles' catalogue.
"Young Man's Town" ups the soul influence and adds a touch ...
| | Wynonna What The World Needs Now CD (2003)
Oogum Boogum Song And Other Hits music CDs
$6.19
By the time of this album's release, the world had already become accustomed to (ostensibly) country singers mixing their Nashville twang with rock, pop, and more. When Wynonna Judd started her solo career, though, she was something of an anomaly in the mainstream country world for doing just that. So while WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW IS LOVE might not sound particularly groundbreaking among its contemporaries, it's just following through on a thread Wynonna started quite a while before. When she breaks into a near-rap on the break of "It All Comes Down to Love," or comes off like a quirky, female John Parr on "Sometimes I Feel Like Elvis," it's an eclecticism well-earned. And when she takes the Elvis thing a step further by updating the King's classic "Burnin' Love," or gives Foreigner ...
