This compilation collects the recordings of Australian indie-rock band the Scientists after they arrived in the U.K. in the mid-1980s.
The Human Jukebox isn't a greatest-hits collection and doesn't include all of Scientists' best songs (like "Swampland"). But the compilation, which combines the original Human Jukebox LP with the You Get What You Deserve EP, comes close. This snapshot of the now-U.K.-based Aussies' career, circa 1984-1986, catches them near the top of their game. Granted, the more balladic numbers -- Nancy Sinatra's "You Only Live Twice" and "It Must Be Nice" -- are the weakest vocally, but singer/songwriter Kim Salmon makes them work anyway by dint of sheer charisma and chutzpah. Which is to say, no one would ever confuse him for Sinatra's esteemed paterfamilias, but could Ole Blue Eyes have handled something as downright, well, explosive as "Atom Bomb Baby"? Sympathy for the Record Industry has done Scientists fans -- and fans-to-be -- a big favor by making this fine material available domestically. Although there are no bonus tracks, Salmon's characteristically frank liner notes make for a nice addition. ~ Kathleen C. Fennessy
Import compilation for the Aussie alternative rock act featuring Kim Salmon, who's been described as 'one of the most vibrant musical talents to emerge from Australia in the 1970s'. Salmon has drawn favorable comparisons to Nick Cave & is arguably just as influential down under. 14 tracks including, 'Atom Bomb Baby', 'It Came Out Of The Sky', 'Hell Beach' & 'Psycho Cook Supreme'.

Human Jukebox songs
$11.18 (MP3 Available for Download) With Adam Lambert, American Idol finally got a finalist who was completely, utterly contemporary, aware of what's hip in music and culture and aware of how music is made and consumed in 2009, never seeming to try to follow fads or set trends, just embodying the time. Mercifully, he came in second to Kris Allen, for if he came in first he may have had to tame his self-styled glamazon ways. A second place finish allowed Lambert to come out of the closet and indulge in his penchant for theater on his debut, For Your Entertainment -- which isn't quite the same thing as camp, for if Adam Lambert is anything, he's earnest about his dress-up, never winking at the audience because he doesn't think there's much funny about his glitter and mascara: that's just what pop stars are supposed to do. He's learned that by listening to his stacks of Queen and Bowie records, from watching old MTV videos on YouTube, from living in a present that always competes with the ever-present past, so he takes it all at face value, mixing up arena rock guitars, new wave, disco, operatic overdubs with a constant electro pulse, glassy modern R&B, and the vague Euro strains of new millennium teen pop. All this makes ...
