 (1 Customer Review)
Perhaps the first "alt rocker," Buddy Holly and his remarkable tunes still stand the test of time. Each of the 12 songs here--"Peggy Sue," "Everyday" and "That'll Be the Day," among them--are gems.
This 12-track compilation album was rushed out within weeks of Buddy Holly's death. It combines what previously had been credited as Crickets group-titles and Holly solo recordings, containing all eight of Holly and the Crickets' Top 40 hits, 1957-1959: "That'll Be The Day," "Peggy Sue," "Oh, Boy!," "Maybe Baby," "Rave On," "Think It Over," "Early In The Morning," and "It Doesn't Matter Anymore," plus the chart entries "Heartbeat" and "Raining In My Heart" and the classics "Everyday" and "It's So Easy." There was more great Holly, of course, but this was an excellent single-LP compilation. ~ William Ruhlmann

Buddy Holly Story album
 $11.65   
EVERCLEAR, AMC's finest hour and one the '90s' most powerful albums, is simultaneously lush and searing, heartache and despair borne out in elegant arrangements that combine fragile prettiness and soul-baring howls of pain. Multi-instrumentalist Bruce Kaphan rose to the occasion of his production debut. The canyons of reverb on the instruments are strangely appropriate, highlighting the almost decadent, tragically beautiful feel of the songs. Keyboards, pedal steel, and acoustic guitars drift like abandoned ships swirling around in a colorfully tempestuous sea full of unknown nautical demons. Guitarist Vudi contributes some of the most artful, non-traditional sounds ever concocted by a "rock" axeman.
The album begins with a slow, soulful lament to a love who's either ...

Buddy Holly Story album
$15.25
Truth be told, the Trembling Blue Stars routine was getting kind of stale by the release of Seven Autumn Flowers in 2004. With that album they crossed the line that divides reliable and predictable; no longer did the morose lyrics, melancholy vocals, minor chords and cheesy synths make a positive impression. Luckily for fans of the band, The Last Holy Writer is a comeback of sorts, certainly an improvement, and maybe even one of their finest records. How did they do it? It's hard to say because on the surface it seems like not much has changed sound or mood-wise. There's still a preponderance of downbeat lyrics and Bob Wratten hasn't suddenly traded in his mope for a smile, no fear of that anytime soon. The building blocks of their sound are mostly the same too. What makes a difference here is a boost in the overall energy level from unrelenting gloom to mostly sad, a slightly expanded sonic palette that makes room for field recordings and a wider range of drum sounds, and most importantly, some really good songs. Chief among them are the Beth Arzy-sung "Idyllwild" which, much like Helen Reddy on the last album, fairly bursts out of the speakers like sun through the clouds, "Darker, Colder, Slower," which has the kind dramatic shifts in dynamics and tone TBS Records ...

Anyone who had seen Grover Washington, Jr. live could attest to the fact that whether he was playing electric jazz-funk or going acoustic on Billy Strayhorn's music, the Philly resident was a masterful saxman with as much technique as soul and charisma. However, the distinctive saxman's studio recordings (which range from outstanding to watered down) didn't always demonstrate ...

The Christmas season is a perennial juxtaposition of the old and the new. Accordingly, the blockbuster Robert Zemeckis film THE POLAR EXPRESS blends a children's book by Chris Van Allsburg, the classic recordings of Bing Crosby's day, and state-of-the art computer animation into a seamless, organic whole. On the soundtrack, new compositions by Glen Ballard and Alan Silvestri coexist with such timeless classics as "White Christmas" and "Winter Wonderland". Here the former tunes become instant classics by association, as the latter gain up-to-date relevance in a new context. Frank Sinatra and Aerosmith's Steven Tyler are seldom heard on the same album, yet here they both are, united by the spirit of Christmas. While some Christmas recordings can be bland and overly familiar, this album is anything but that. THE POLAR EXPRESS is the perfect accompaniment to the blockbuster movie, but it also works as a great collection of Christmas songs, from the timeless to the contemporary. Reflecting a child's sense of wonder, excitement, and adventure, it may well become a holiday classic itself.
The soundtrack to Robert Zemeckis' groundbreaking film adaptation of Chris Van Allsburg's popular children's book The Polar Express celebrates the season with both classic and contemporary holiday flair. Composers Glen Ballard and Alan Silvestri provide the latter, relying on swelling choral arrangements, tender ballads, and polarizing yuletide offerings from Stephen Tyler and Josh Groban. Tyler struts his stuff on the amiable but derivative "Rockin' on Top of the World," a three-chord rave-up that finds the Aerosmith mouthpiece channeling a pack of howler monkeys, but it's Groban's syrupy, future American Idol favorite "Believe" that serves as the soundtrack's commercial centerpiece. ...
