| | Brave Combo Box Of Ghosts CD Brave Combo Discography of CDs
Over the years, Brave Combo has applied their patented formula to everything from "Double Vision" (Foreigner) and "Purple Haze" to "Tubular Bells" and the "Theme From Rosemary's Baby." It really should come as no surprise that they're now ready to tackle the classics. Fifteen classical melodies, some known to just about everyone, others less familiar, are given the Brave Combo treatment, and the results are as much fun as you'd expect from these guys. Themes from Mozart, Bach, and Chopin are transformed into polkas, cha-chas, and even a disco song. The best part is that the tunes go beyond being merely kitschy and actually succeed on their own terms, whether you recognize the original melody or not. Box of Ghosts is more good, clean fun from Brave Combo. ~ Sean Westergaard

| | Keb' Mo' Keep It Simple CD (2004)
Box Of Ghosts music CDs
$6.25 
For his fifth studio album, KEEP IT SIMPLE, Keb' Mo' adhered to the title's advice and cut out any middleman by taking the production reins himself. As a result, the California native came away with a dozen songs that are perhaps the most personal of his career. Playing a combination of finger-picked and slide guitar, Mo' lends a tasty, fat tone to these tales of intimate relationships (the Bonnie Raitt-flavored "One Friend," ...
| | Eric Bibb Sisters & Brothers CD (2004)
Box Of Ghosts songs
$13.09
As its title implies, this is a spiritually based collaboration from three distinct -- even disparate -- yet surprisingly harmonious voices. Mostly, but not entirely acoustic, the trio of rootsy singers trade lead vocals on smooth jazz/blues ("Bessie's Dream"), folk-blues ("Good Stuff"), Delta blues ("Rolling Log"), gospel (an a cappella version of Sister Rosetta Tharpe's "Rock Daniel"), and combinations of those genres. On paper it sounds scattershot, ...

Box Of Ghosts CD music
$14.29
It's both more of the same and all change for Kate Rusby on her new album: more of the same because she brings the same intimacy and warm voice to the proceedings, and a clutch of good songs, superbly arranged and performed; all change because she produced the disc herself, following a split with husband John McCusker (who's here as a musician on some cuts), and because there's a slightly greater percentage of her own material in among the traditional fare. There's a definite sense of loss in her own songs, not only in the title track and "Bitter Boy" but also the gorgeous "Daughter of Heaven," that speaks of a tumultuous few years in her personal life. Her writing has improved, with a sharpness and reflection that suit her style well. But many come to Rusby for her interpretations of traditional songs, and she doesn't disappoint here: "John Barbury" is a lovely variant on "Willie O'Winsbury," and "Blooming Heather," "The Streams of Lovely Nancy," and "Andrew ...
