| | Cardigans Long Gone Before Daylight CD Cardigans Discography of CDs
On their fifth album, the Cardigans continue down musical paths few would've predicted based on the bubbly, organ-driven lounge-pop of their first three releases, EMMERDALE, LIFE, and FIRST BAND ON THE MOON. LONG GONE BEFORE DAYLIGHT sees the Swedish ensemble emerging from the rebellious phase of 1998's icy GRAN TURISMO and forging ahead to address love, longing, and loss in more subtle ways.
The leadoff track, "Communication," finds songwriter Peter Svensson and vocalist/lyricist Nina Persson giving a nod to the Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses." Tinges of American country twang also come through on "Live and Learn," and the single "For What It's Worth." Persson's soft-yet-resolute alto shows off its full force on ballads "Couldn't Care Less," and "Lead Me Into the Night." The songs of DAYLIGHT forgo immediate hooks in order to give their compositions more space to breathe and convey mood, revealing them to have more in common with Persson's 2001 solo project, A Camp (produced by Sparklehorse's Mark Linkous), than previous Cardigans releases. The effect is distinctly cinematic, and patient listeners will be richly rewarded.
The fifth studio album from the Swedish superstars is "an uptempo beautiful pop song", per lead singer Nina Persson. The group have created a warm, intimate album filled with great songs that expand their musicianship and collective songwriting talents. The organic production give the material a "live in the studio" feel, spearheaded by Persson's voice, which is more expressive and colorful than ever. "Long Gone Before Daylight" is a musical labour of love, with cameo appearances by Pelle Almqvist (The Hives), Ebbot Lundberg (Soundtrack Of Our Lives) and Nick Royale (Hellacopters).
British import with two bonus tracks.

| | Alpha Blondy Apartheid Is Nazism CD (1987)
Long Gone Before Daylight CD music
$14.65 
While it might be sacrilege in reggae circles to say that any artist could challenge Bob Marley's mastery of the genre, Alpha Blondy fires a dead-on shot literally heard around the world with Apartheid Is Nazism. Furthermore, this work proves that great reggae does not have to come from Jamaica. "Afriki" opens the album with a nod to Jamaica, but while the music is classic, offbeat reggae, there is a strong African feel here, especially in the backing vocals. On every track, ...
| | T S Monk Monk On Monk CD (1997) Enhanced CD
Long Gone Before Daylight music CDs
$12.59
MONK ON MONK is an Enhanced-CD, containing a full audio program as well as multimedia computer files. The multi-media portion includes interviews with T.S. Monk, Jimmy Heath, Ron Carter, and Monk's wife Nellie, as well as video footage and photos from the recording session.
For this tribute to his father, legendary pianist-composer Thelonious Monk, T.S. Monk has gathered nearly 30 of the most important figures in jazz, including Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Jimmy Heath, Danilo Perez, Roy Hargrove, Wallace Roney, Geri Allen, Christian McBride, and Kevin Mahogany. But far from a free-wheeling jam-session, MONK ON MONK is a tight and swinging affair thanks to T.S.'s astute leadership and Don Sickler's arrangements in the style of Monk's large ensemble recordings.
For MONK ON MONK, T.S. chose nine tunes his father penned for family or friends. The brilliantly executed arrangements and extraordinary ensemble playing show off the intricacies of each of these jazz masterpieces. The energy level remains remarkably high from beginning to end; every solo on this album sizzles. The two tracks featuring vocals show the multidimensionality of Monk's music.
Enhanced CD;80th Birthday Trib Feat-H.Hancock,W.Shorter &More
Recorded at Van Gelder Studios in Englewood, New Jersey between February 6-27, 1997. Includes liner notes by Denise Pruitt.

| | Jordan Johnson On My Own CD (2006)
Long Gone Before Daylight songs
$9.59
Singers. Songwriters. Producers. A musician that excels in any one of these fields is difficult to come by. Jordan Johnson is among the select few that excels in all three. Jordan began pursuing a singing career at the age of 14, when he submitted a homemade acappella demo and beat out thousands of hopefuls to be in an Orlando-based boyband. Jordan found himself spending most of his free time attending dance rehearsals, recording sessions, and photoshoots. Although the group seemed to be on the fast-track to success, they disbanded only eight months later when a contractual dispute left them in legal limbo with two seperate companies. Noticing Jordan's immense dedication to his new craft, ...
