How does J-Church continue on to crank out album after album in between releasing a boatload of singles and manage to keep the music fresh and exciting? Maybe it's the continual change in drummers or that founding members Lance (guitar/vocals) and Gardner (bass/vocals) know how to bounce off of each other's creativity -- they have been writing music together since their Cringer days in 1985. But in the case of their fourth album, Arbor Vitae was recorded and produced by Frankie Stubbs (of Leatherface fame) who created this production style, making this album crystal. With that and some beautiful backing vocals courtesy of Julie, who can normally be found fronting Eggplant and occasionally Wat Tyler, Arbor Vitae redefines J-Church's style of innovative, laid-back pop-punk with the help of keyboards and an acoustical number. They even pull off a song that has authentic handclapping, keeping the beat without scoring high on the cheese factor. ~ Mike DaRonco

Purchase Arbor Vitae CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Susan Boyle I Dreamed A Dream CD (2009)
Arbor Vitae album
 $9.55     
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 ...
| | Jimmy Buffett Buffet Hotel CD (2009)
Arbor Vitae 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 ...
| | Mark Knopfler Get Lucky CD (2009)
Arbor Vitae 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, even if he has taken ...
| | Lady Gaga Fame Monster CD (2009)
Arbor Vitae 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," ...

| | Barbara Morgenstern Nichts Muss CD (2003) (Import) Germany
Arbor Vitae album
$15.05
Another album, another leap forward for Barbara Morgenstern. Nichts Muss, her third Monika album, is a refinement of her past work as she scales back the electronics a bit while at the same time shifting her voice and piano further into the spotlight. This subtle shift transforms her previous style of indie electronica into fashionable techno-pop, thereby making her music all the more personalized and musically distinct. Cooing the German language in such a way that will surprise anyone who thinks the language is uniformly unpleasant to the ear, Morgenstern now sings on most songs as her piano playing adds an extra touch of melody. Hence the pop aspect of her newly refined sound. As for the techno aspect of the equation, German dub-techno whizzes Stefan Betke and Thomas Fehlmann aid with the production, and while their assistance seems minor, the electronic backbone of each song ...
