DRU WORLD ORDER is another immaculate collection of smoothly-executed R&B of the type that topped the Billboard charts on Dru Hill's first couple of releases. This third album continues where the band left off--silky smooth vocals and arrangements that ooze out of the speakers like butter, massed harmonies that take no prisoners, and after-hours love ballads such as the provocative "Xstacey Jones" that positively melt the senses. And lest you take them for a mere bunch of love wimps, there's also the tough-minded, Noreaga-assisted "TK" that bangs like the scorching street anthem it undoubtedly is. Mostly though, DRU WORLD ORDER is unapologetically sensual in its exploration of contemporary soul stylings, proving the band ready and able to take on a gangsta rap-saturated R&B market.

Dru Hill Dru World Order Songs Dru World Order Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews Dru Hill is back for the 2G+3 more! Yes folx! Dru Hill is back and their sound is harder than ever. Their latest single "I Should Be" is a definite banger. The other slow jams, which they are best known for, are a pleasure to the ear. Showcasing their vocal talents individually. The best thing I've heard since "Sleeping In My Bed". It's good to see Sisqo, Jazz, Woody, and Nokio back together after nearly 5 years plus adding Scola to the click making them even tighter as a quintet. Keep up the good work Dru Hill!

| | Benny Goodman Live At Carnegie Hall: 40th Anniversary Concert CD (2007) (Import)
Dru World Order
$18.89 In 1978, Benny Goodman celebrated the 40th anniversary of his original pioneering Carnegie Hall concert with an anniversary performance at the palace of classical music. From reviews of the actual event, the music and presentation were quite erratic, but this double LP (and double CD), which only includes the best moments, is on a higher level. In addition to a strong big band, Goodman was joined by vibraphonist Lionel Hampton, pianist Mary Lou Williams -- whose performance throughout makes this set worth hearing -- his late '30s vocalist Martha Tilton and a newer singer, Debi Craig. With trumpeters Warren Vache and Jack Sheldon and tenor saxophonist Buddy Tate also getting solo space, Goodman was fairly inspired; he even sings "I Love A Piano," reminding listeners of the fact that he occasionally sang with his band in their prime years, and even in one of their movies (The Gang's All Here). With the exception of a medley, "Loch Lomond" and, of course, "Sing Sing Sing" (which has drummer Connie Kay playing Gene Krupa's famous solo), none of the songs from the 1938 concert were reprised. And it is the new repertory that gives Goodman the most difficulty -- he reaches out to add some contemporary numbers, including Stephen Sondheim's "Send In The Clowns" (which isn't terribly inspired here), John Lennon and Paul McCartney's "Yesterday" (which sort of works), and "Rocky Raccoon" (embarrassingly sung by Jack Sheldon -- why they didn't look at doing, say, "When I'm Sixty Four," which has a juicy clarinet part in it already, is anyone's guess, but none of these really lend themselves to improvisation in the way that the popular songs of Goodman's prime did. The swing-era numbers that are covered -- "King Porter Stomp," "That's A Plenty," "Moonglow" etc. -- are generally good, with "Roll 'Em" (featuring superb piano by Williams, and solos by Buddy Tate, Vache, ...
