| | Violet Indiana Killer Eyes CD - Import Violet Indiana Discography of CDs
The debut single from the downtempo troupe's 2001 release. 2001, U.K. import.
Violet Indiana's single for Killer Eyes has a pair of decent B-sides to recommend it. "Killer Eyes" itself, while quite representative of what you can find on the remainder of Roulette, doesn't work as well when it's taken out of the context of the LP. The gushing/storming chorus feels like a conclusion, and that's why it works so well as the album's closing track. "Storm" is light, feathery, and hardly there at all, but it's a nice, lulling tease. "Safe Word" has a little more energy to it, a subtle beat and plenty of Robin Guthrie's echoey guitar. The disc also includes the video for the A-side; nothing much happens outside of Siobhan de Mare primping in front of a mirror. The ladies could really use some more Guthrie, no? ~ Andy Kellman

Killer Eyes album
 $9.58     
Susan Boyle's grand unveiling on Britain's Got Talent was with a song from Les Miserables - the very song that lends this album its title -- and if she could become an international sensation based on a show tune standard, there's no reason for her to change her approach on her debut, since that's the sound that made her a star. Plus, a large part of Boyle's appeal is that she's a middle-aged woman recalling a bygone era when there were singers that appealed to an adult audience by offering soft, stately versions of pop hits and standards. That time was the late `60s and early `70s, and apart from a rather faithful version of Madonna's "You'll See," I Dreamed a Dream could very well have been released all those years ago, as it mixes up the show tunes, gospel, and Christmas carols with covers of Skeeter Davis' "The End of the World," the Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses," and a version of "Daydream Believer" that is easily the slowest ...
| | Jimmy Buffett Buffet Hotel CD (2009)
Killer Eyes CD music
$9.74 
Since Jimmy Buffett never leaves his comfort zone, it's hard to call 2009's Buffet Hotel a return to roots but, in a way, it is. Discounting the mock rap on "Turn Up the Heat and Chill the Rosé," this album doesn't even have the lingering country and reggae flavors that seasoned 2006's Take the Weather with You, with all of the songs riding a cool, mellow country-rock wave, the kind that has been his stock-in-trade since the `70s. There's a difference between being part of a tradition and being stuck in the past and Buffett is surely in the former, not shying away from the new millennial mess, admitting that we all have "A Lot to Drink About" and never flinching from his advancing years, most movingly on a cover of Bruce Cockburn's "Life's Short Call ...

Killer Eyes music CDs
$15.65 
With the release of GET LUCKY, Mark Knopfler has made as many solo studio albums as he made group studio albums with Dire Straits, which itself may be a signal that it's time to stop comparing his two careers and simply accept them as separate entities. Of course, since Knopfler was the lead singer, chief instrumentalist, and songwriter for Dire Straits, there are obvious similarities, ...
| | Lady Gaga Fame Monster CD (2009)
Killer Eyes songs
$8.79
Initially planned solely as a standard double-disc reissue in the wake of the blockbuster success of The Fame, Lady Gaga decided to release the new material as a separate EP called The Fame Monster in addition to the standard two-CD set, where it's tacked onto a now standardized version of her debut. It's a nice move for fans, plus it helps emphasize the new material, which does act as a bridge from the debut to a forthcoming full-length. Everything on The Fame Monster bears a galvanized Eurotrash finish, as evident on the heavy steel synths of "Bad Romance" and the updated ABBA revision "Alejandro," as it is on the rock & roll ballad "Speechless" -- its big guitars lifted from Noel Gallagher -- and the wonderful, perverse march "Teeth." Even the stuttering splices on "Telephone," a duet with Beyoncé, leans to the other side ...

Bon Jovi's 2007 effort, LOST HIGHWAY, found New Jersey's finest brandishing a Nashville-tinged, commercial rock/country crossover sound that wasn't too far a stretch from their usual arena rocking anthems for the Everyman. And where that album sometimes tried too hard to ...

Killer Eyes music CDs
$15.55
Hux's 2004 release To Be Cool unearths a live rehearsal tape the sprawling British blue-eyed funk-soul band Kokomo recorded in 1974, just as the band was getting its sea legs. This was before they had released an album but while they were still an attraction on the U.K.'s pub rock circuit, where they were unquestionably the loosest and funkiest -- at least according to a strict musical definition of the term -- of the scene. Where other pub rockers actually rock & rolled, Kokomo settled into a mellow, soulful groove and rode it for a long, long time, and To Be Cool proves this better than any of their studio albums. In their liner notes, David Coleman and Nigel Cross also argue that this collection "captures the whole spirit of Kokomo better than previous records," and that does indeed seem to be true: these laid-back, elastic jams sound closer to what all observers at the time claim to have heard in concert in the mid-'70s. In that respect, To Be Cool is a valuable document, both for fans of the band and for pub rock fanatics trying to discern how Kokomo fit into the scene (after all, their studio albums always sounded too slick to be pub rock). But that doesn't necessarily mean that To Be Cool will be appealing to both camps. Kokomo's greatest attribute is also its greatest weakness -- and that would be its fondness for never-ending jams. To fans, this is what made the band special, since they had a loose, funky vibe that wasn't heard too often in the U.K., and they could occasionally turn familiar songs inside out with a clever arrangement, as they do here with Bob Dylan's "New Morning." Certainly, there's plenty of opportunity to hear all ten members of Kokomo stretch out here -- of the ten songs here, only one clocks in under five minutes, two weigh in at well over ten minutes, two others hover around the nine-minute mark, while the rest are around six or seven minutes. To those who dig the sound of this band, this is a dream, since you can hear them lay back and play in a way that no other record in the Kokomo catalog captures. But, to the unconverted and curious, a little of this stuff goes a long way. They don't have the grit or imagination of, say, Little Feat -- they are as smooth and party-ready as the Average White Band, who was musically ...
