Todd Park Mohr's world-weary drawl proves to be the perfect match for stirring songs like the yearning twang-fest "Julianna" and languid "Jet." With fellow Monsters Rob Squires and Brian Nevin complimenting Mohr's low-key but muscular guitar playing, songs like the anthemic "Freedom Fighter," chugging "Wishing Well" and simmering "Again And Again" hint at the effortless synergy Big Head Todd's have come to enjoy in the band's decade-plus existence. RIVIERA ends up being a destination fans of rootsy music should immediately head to.
Quietly continuing to pursue their muse as fellow H.O.R.D.E. brethren like The Dave Matthews Band continue to operate on a higher profile plane, Big Head Todd And The Monsters use their seventh album RIVIERA as a passport back to the band's more stripped-down sound of earlier releases. To that end, the Colorado-based trio severed their ties to major label Giant Records, instead opting to resurrect the band's indie imprint Big Records, which was initially used to release the band's 1989 debut ANOTHER MAYBERRY.
Big Head Todd & The Monsters: Todd Park Mohr (vocals, guitar); Rob Squires (bass, background vocals); Brian Nevin (drums, background vocals).

Riviera music CDs
$8.99 After working his way through loss and chaos on the brilliant TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT (recorded in 1973, but not released until 1975), Neil Young deftly exorcised any lingering demons with 1974's ON THE BEACH. The album opens with the saunter of the aptly titled "Walk On," followed by the utterly gorgeous, Wurlitzer-tinged "See the Sky about to Rain."
The set also features a trio of scathing songs--"Revolution Blues," "Vampire Blues," and "Ambulance Blues"--that address issues important to Young, both social and personal. ...

| | Greg Ginn Dick CD (1993)
Riviera CD music
$11.55 Dick is practically a companion piece to Ginn's solo debut, Getting Even. Both albums were released only months apart, yet stake much of the same sonic turf: murky vocals, spluttering guitars, and battering rhythms that naturally recall Ginn's former pioneering band, Black Flag. However, where Getting Even is a tight, focused affair, Dick giddily mixes terse instrumental outbursts like the fuzz bass-driven "Never Change, Baby" with scattershot punk ("I Won't ...
| | Gov't Mule Life Before Insanity CD (2000) (Import) Germany
Riviera music CDs
$9.75 In 1997, following a short period of splitting time between the Allman Brothers Band and Gov't Mule, Warren Haynes left the former to concentrate full-time on the latter. With Haynes' rededication to the band, Mule went on to resurrect and expand upon the power-trio concept first pioneered by Cream and Mountain. Much like its predecessors, the Mule's fifth album, LIFE BEFORE INSANITY, continues to be yoked to leader Haynes' gruff vocals and formidable guitar playing.
This time around, the Mule wanders away from its blues-rock roots, embracing a creative expansion marked by odd time signatures and more of a low-key delivery. Haynes' soulful vocals are an especially appropriate match for the haunting "Tastes Like Wine" and the ...
| | Japanese Avant Garde CDs (2002) (Import)
Riviera songs
$13.59 Amidst the many compilation albums on Japanese experimental music, this CD is surely another kind of creature. First, the project stemmed from an event related to another medium. In March 2002, the Brussels Festival of Fantasy Film brought to Belgium Takashi Miike and Shinya Tsukamoto, two experimental filmmakers. Their works and the discussions that followed their presentation gave the Sub Rosa team the idea to put this album together over the notion of opposites -- after all, isn't Japan the land of 1,000 contradictions? So this CD presents a portrait of Japanese avant-garde music as an exploration of all extremes, from the harsh noise of Merzbow and the guerilla live collages of Ground Zero to the prettiness found in the music of Aki Onda and Haco. The track selection seems to be very personal, spans almost all of the '90s, and includes material previously released on Sub Rosa (Bisk, Multiphonic Ensemble), Softl (Yoshio Machida), and Gentle Giant (a Ground Zero 7"). One standout cut is Koji Asano's "Vs Calla," a rare, short piece from this master of the marathon and a typically disturbing processed sound file. Other points of interest include Merzbow's "Lux Automobile," Onda's "Fish Don't Know It's Raining," and Sachiko M's sine-wave piece "2808200," surprisingly gentle on the ear. The latter is the only example of the turn-of-the-century "onkyo" movement, which is surprising since the extremely quiet has never been explored this deeply. The last two tracks present excerpts from interviews with the filmmakers, in Japanese-English translations, along with an essay by David Toop. Japanese Avant-Garde provides an awkward, mixed-up cross section of its subject, much like Sub Rosa's An Anthology of Noise & Electronic Music. ~ François Couture

Riviera CD music
$11.49 Carlo Colombo, jazz singer and pianist, presents the third and perhaps most controversial work entitled "Design" produced by Maurizio" Bozorius "Bozzi for the independent label Drycastle Records. In this CD he describes in a very amusing way the history and state of mind of the contemporary human being who have lost direction, both moral and philosophical.Carlo Colombo, cantautore e pianista jazz trevigiano, da alcuni definito una “scheggia impazzita del panorama jazz italiano”, presenta il terzo e forse più controverso lavoro dal titolo “Design” prodotto da Maurizio “Bozorius” Bozzi per l’etichetta indipendente Drycastle Records. Rispetto ai precedenti lavori, “Sfonderai” del 2002 e “Playboy”del 2006, quello nuovo si presenta con sonorità più varie ed arrangiamenti più complessi, passando dal classico quintetto jazz ad una piccola big-band con grande spazio ai solisti. In “Design” le sonorità sono principalmente acustiche ma, in alcuni brani, si fa largo uso dell’elettronica, per quanto riguarda gli effetti ed il sostegno ritmico. Carlo ha voluto così aprirsi a nuove possibilità stilistiche, pur mantenendo una struttura metrica ed armonica di stampo jazzistico ed un suono sempre morbido e ...
