Mussorgsky, Bach-Busoni, Et Al / Evgeny Kissin
 $14.55 
A veteran tenor saxophonist who gained early recognition for his work with the Lennie Tristano school, Ted Brown has remained fairly obscure despite his consistent creativity. This superior trio set with the great bebop pianist Hod O'Brien and bassist Jacques Schols, features Brown at the top of his form. Other than his own "Smog Eyes" and the lesser-known "Trane's Slo Blues," all of the tunes are familiar bebop standards, but Brown, O'Brien, and Schols uplift and infuse them with fresh ideas. Among the more memorable selections are "Trane's Slo Blues," "Lester Leaps In" and "Lover Come Back to Me." Quite possibly this is the definitive Ted Brown set to acquire; certainly it is highly recommended to lovers of straight-ahead jazz. ~ Scott ...

$19.19 | | Anvil Hard 'N' Heavy CD (1981)
Mussorgsky, Bach-Busoni, Et Al / Evgeny Kissin
$14.45  
Anvil's first album, 1981's Hard 'n' Heavy, may also be their most unique, since it actually predated the band's adhesion (and key contributions) to the up-and-coming speed metal movement, beginning with their seminal sophomore outing, 1982's Metal on Metal. Instead, Hard 'n' Heavy is a transitional record compiling the best fruits of nearly a decade's worth of club shows and basement woodshedding over long cold Canadian winters by inseparable pals Steve "Lips" Kudlow (vocals/guitar) and Robb Reiner (drums), plus, more recently, bandmates Dave Allison (guitar) and Ian Dickson (bass). In fact, prior to its release through Attic Records, Hard 'n' Heavy had already been put out independently under the group's discarded moniker of Lips (where, curiously, their focus had been on S&M-inspired shock rock), so in some respects, it was the work of another band, not Anvil. This S&M connection certainly explains the exceedingly naughty sexual double-entendres gracing the album's numerous frill-free hard rockers -- namely "AC/DC" and "Oooh Baby" (both of which recall the first song's namesake), "Hot Child" (which owes much to UFO), and the self-explanatory "Bondage" (which ironically features searing guitar histrionics right out of Ted Nugent's arsenal). Others still, like Dave Allison's ménage ŕ trois bubblegum boogie "I Want You Both (With Me)," his second lead vocal, "Oh, Jane," and the inordinately laid-back "At the Apartment" ...
| | Arcade Fire Funeral CD (2004)
Mussorgsky, Bach-Busoni, Et Al / Evgeny Kissin
$12.05 
This Montreal ensemble's fiery debut is marked by surging guitars, soulful strings, driving drums, brilliant bass lines, and the quavering vocals of married couple Win Butler and Regine Chassagne. The group's song structures careen through a vast territory of musical and personal history, with lyrics warm with memories of childhood neighborhoods and deceased loved ones, resulting in an alternating current of joy and sadness.
Favorably compared to the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, and Broken Social Scene, the Arcade Fire's sound seems to come from a lifetime of listening to the Cure, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, and many others--even a dose of soul gets worked into these grand anthems. Chassagne delivers some spellbinding vocals on "Haiti," while the tinkling piano and strings on "Crown of Love" conjure up ...

| | John Adams I Was Looking At The Ceiling And Then I Saw The Sky CD (1998)
Mussorgsky, Bach-Busoni, Et Al / Evgeny Kissin
$14.35
Selection recorded in December, 1996 (Arabian Studios, Helsinki, Finland) and May, 1997 (Avatar Studios, New York City).
'I Was Looking at the Ceiling and then I Saw the Sky' is a lyric and title based on a survivor's response to the 1994 earthquake in Northridge, California. John Adams' opera establishes the situations of seven individuals in Los Angeles and then disrupts their lives with the earthquake, finally illustrating the upheaval wrought in all seven lives--change, but not entirely for the worse.
This work is much less an "opera-house" work than 'Nixon in China,' and evokes a variety of popular styles. Adams has moved away from strict minimalism in the sense of repetition and gradual change to a rhythmically active style which incorporates a good deal of repetition but with more sense of forward motion. "Consuelo's Dream" has a luminous quality similar to "This is Prophetic" from 'Nixon,' but the work as a whole seems more akin to Broadway than classical styles.
The vocalists, mostly the original 1995 New York cast and not known as "opera ...
