| | Hits Of 1989 CD
Sony Special Products' Hits Of series follows a pretty set script. The discs are short at only ten tracks and contain a mix of big hits, middling hits, and totally forgotten songs by pretty well-known artists. It is a unique strategy that brings some interesting songs to light and makes for good listening. Hits of 1989 breaks a bit from that plan by being split pretty much 50/50 between hits and misses. In the hits column are biggies by the Bangles ("Eternal Flame"), Cyndi Lauper ("I Drove All Night"), Living Colour ("Cult of Personality"), Bad English ("When I See You Smile"), and New Kids on the Block ("Hangin' Tough"). The rest are not so much misses as lesser known songs by big artists like Warrant, Luther Vandross, and the Outfield. The format doesn't present a definitive picture of the year by any means and it is too short, but it does round up some songs that are worth hearing again. ~ Tim Sendra

What else are you supposed to do when you grow up in Whitehorse, Yukon? It's not like you can take your cue from gutter-punks in Scarborough and watch the grass grow. It only make sense that someone like James Murdoch, with a natural voice and gift for guitar would start strumming and someday leave the icy banks of the mighty Yukon River for the 'sunny sights' of Victoria, British Columbia and later Edmonton, Alberta. There's nothing more cross-Canada than the story of James Murdoch and the travels behind his present life."...Engaging...He embraced a full range of sounds, from roots-pop to a smoother, lounge-y vibe and ended up with some funk. Young James is a versatile guy... The Future looks good" - Chart Magazine, Review of live show CMW 2004At the age of fourteen, James found himself in climatically kinder, gentler place, but one where the challenges of wanting to become something far overwhelmed the challenges he faced at home. Intent on honing his craft, James sought out others of his musical species, working towards a goal to get his music heard. After collaborative efforts, including an enticing project with fellow Yukon alumni, Stephen Noel (Boy), James recorded his independent debut album, Polyphonic, garnering nominations from The West Coast Music Awards and "Pop Album of the Year" at the 2002 Prairie Music Awards. From there James had a perfect springboard to get noticed, ...
| | Signal Hill Transmission Home CD (2002)
Hits Of 1989 album
$7.99
*BIO*Los Angeles based Signal Hill Transmission was formed in 2001 by singer/guitarist Scott Warren and drummer Scott Schoen in the basement of Warren’s Hermosa Beach apartment. The band was originally conceived as a lo-fi alt-country pop outfit, with Schoen adding a backbeat and the occasional background vocal to Warren’s acoustic-based material. Before long, they began playing the local club circuit and in 2001 traveled to Warren’s hometown of St. Louis, MO to record their first release, “Home.”By the beginning of 2002, though, Warren and Schoen were looking to fill out their sound. At the same time, bassist Duane Rakestraw had just left indie band Robot and attended an SHT gig on the recommendation of a friend. Within days of the show, Rakestraw became the third member of the band and when they brought in former Robot guitarist Mon Agranat a few weeks later, SHT’s transformation from a no-frills two-piece into a bonafide rock outfit was complete. Together they recorded two self-produced albums- “Tomorrow, The Stars” in 2005 and “An Empty Space” in 2007. Both were well-received by the critics and college radio alike and showcased a knack for pithy, catchy songwriting that has become the band’s hallmark.In January of 2008, SHT won $25,000 in a competition for unsigned bands sponsored by a local radio station. This allowed the band to focus exclusively on songwriting and in May, the band went into the studio with producer Brad Wood (Liz Phair, Pete Yorn). They emerged with a four song EP, "Starting Gun," their first release with ATO records. Rolling Stone Contributing Editor David Wild writes, “’Starting Gun’ is not the beginning of the race, but an altogether ...
