Following up the energetic, one-two punch of RUST NEVER SLEEPS and LIVE RUST, Neil Young takes a more understated route with 1980's HAWKS & DOVES. On rustic tracks such as "Little Wing" and "The Old Homestead" (both written in the mid-'70s), Young revisits his HARVEST era with a spare sound that relies heavily on his distinctive voice and acoustic guitar. As the album progresses, its scope widens both musically and lyrically; "Stayin' Power" is a jaunty, piano-driven tune about the power of love, while "Comin' Apart at Every Nail" is a guitar-laden hoedown that comments on the US government. This surprisingly patriotic tone (especially coming from a Canadian) This politically minded theme takes on a surprisingly patriotic tone on the album's closing title track, the Canadian songwriter's flag-waving tribute to the United States. A highly underrated record, HAWKS & DOVES features some of Young's finest songs of the '80s.

Musician (5/94, p.69) - "...The first half [of HAWKS & DOVES] is made up of muted, spooky acoustic music. The second rips hard, building up as it goes along to create a vivid snapshot of the U.S.A.'s turning away from Jimmy Carter's liberalism to embrace the temptations of Ronald Reagan...."

Hawks & Doves album
 $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. It is good to hear Young ...

The remastered special-edition version marks the album's first CD release, and features a vinyl-inspired design.
Released in 1981, REACTOR was a transitional album for Neil Young, most notably in that it marked a break in his longstanding relationship with Reprise Records. But before Young left for the supposedly greener fields of Geffen, he unleashed this amped-up outing with Crazy Horse in tow. "Opera Star," with its refrain of "ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho" and unusual synthesizer backing, sets a quirky tone that's furthered by "T-Bone," a nine-minute guitar workout with lyrics comprised only of the lines "Got mashed potatoes/Ain't got no T-bone." On other tracks, however, the ...

Hawks & Doves songs
$12.39
Like Nat King Cole, Dinah Washington went from being a great jazz vocalist to being a great traditional pop vocalist. Jazz snobs called her a sellout in the late '50s and early '60s, but jazz snobs be damned -- quality is quality. Spanning 16 years, Anthology 1943-1959: The Deluxe Edition focuses primarily on Washington's jazz side. The only traditional pop offering on this 62-minute CD is a lush, captivating 1959 arrangement of the Cole hit "Unforgettable"; otherwise, jazz prevails whether Washington is performing swing as a featured vocalist for Lionel Hampton's orchestra in 1943 and 1944 or taking a jazz blues approach on 12 solo recordings for Apollo Records in 1945. The Apollo material (which marked the beginning of Washington's solo career) is excellent, and her live performances with the Hampton band -- most or all of which were broadcast by the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS) during World War II -- are rewarding even though they fall short of essential. The only time Anthology moves into outright hard bop territory is on a passionate 1954 recording of "Lover Come Back to Me" that boasts an inspired solo by the distinctive trumpeter Clifford Brown (who was a major influence on Lee Morgan, Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw, Donald Byrd, and others). Anthology isn't really a best-of and wouldn't be the ideal place for a novice to get started, but Washington's more seasoned aficionados will find a lot to savor on this generally excellent CD. ~ Alex Henderson
If you own Delmark's 1992 CD Mellow Mama, you have most of the recordings on this 2001 release from Cleopatra's Stardust label. Anthology, like Mellow Mama, contains all 12 of the songs that Dinah Washington recorded for Apollo on December 10-13, 1945, including sassy jazz/blues gems like "My Voot Is Really Vout," "Mellow Mama Blues," "Wise Woman Blues," and "Rich Man's Blues" (which humorously echoes the thoughts of gold diggers past and present). In fact, the 12 songs (which employ bop heavyweights like vibist Milt Jackson, tenor saxman Lucky Thompson, and bassist Charles Mingus) are heard in the same order on Anthology as they are on Mellow Mama. But while Mellow Mama focuses on the December 1945 sessions exclusively, Anthology contains three bonus tracks: "Shoo Shoo Baby," "Lover, Come Back to Me," and "Unforgettable." Recorded during a Lionel Hampton session of 1943, "Shoo Shoo Baby" is quite similar to the Apollo material. But "Lover, Come Back to Me" is pure bop, and Washington's famous 1959 recording of "Unforgettable" (a major hit for Nat "King" Cole in the early ...

1. Breakthrough –a dark story of a son that shoots his father. I had a friend when I was younger whose father hung himself and he used to say that he would’ve killed his dad himself if he’d got the chance.2. City Light Moments – we have played this song on almost all of our GATSS-shows. A simple pop-song about the extraordinary in writing and living with words.3. Charlie Fay – the reason why people have started to call our music tango-rock. This song is also one of the oldest, i remember that we even played this on our first releasparty for Vagabond’s Polka.4. Devil When You Cry – this song was written just before we started recording and I wrote this together with Martin Björk who is the guitarist and songwriter in SHOOTING ...
