Artists from bands like Journey and Fleetwood Mac guest on this 1985 self-titled solo outing from former Cold Chisel frontman Jimmy Barnes.
Here's an album that asks the musical question--how many Bryan Adams clones does one country really need? Doubtless Australian Jimmy Barnes comes by his rock & roll heart honestly, but hooking up with the likes of Jonathan Cain (the Babys, Journey, Bad English), he's making standard-issue corporate designer rock here just emotive enough to stir things up without obscuring those backup vocals by Kim Carnes. (Okay, sometimes he doesn't sound like Bryan Adams. Sometimes he sounds like Sammy Hagar instead.) The answer to the question: One less than Geffen Records was hoping. ~ William Ruhlmann

Jimmy Barnes Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  BARNESY GETS IT RIGHT
After leaving Cold Chisel in 1983, Oz rocker Jimmy Barnes ventured into a solo career that recently saw him inducted into the Australian Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His self-titled album was his first release in Australia, although it was released under a different title in the US.
This album contains crowd favorites "I'd Die To Be With You Tonight," "Ride The Night Away," and "Second Prize." Song #3, "Working Class Man," was written by Jonathan Caine (of Journey) for the Ron Howard movie Gung Ho. In Australia, however, the movie was released with the same title as the song, and "Working Class Man" became the unofficial Australian anthem. I dare you to find an Aussie who does not know it by heart.
For those of you who do not recognize his name, he sang "Simply The Best" with Tina Turner and "Good Times" with INXS (from The Lost Boys soundtrack). It is a shame that Cold Chisel and Jimmy Barnes never made it big in America. We have been robbed of a generation of great music.

Jimmy Barnes album
$6.79   (MP3 Available for Download)
Recorded between 1979 & 1995. Includes liner notes by Dave Thompson.
There is no shortage of Marianne Faithfull collections, but the compact, digitally remastered, 11-track 20th Century Masters set comes close to being the best document of her post-comeback period, which began with 1979's Broken English. That addictively eccentric album is well-represented here with the title track, Shel Silverstein's "The Ballad of Lucy Jordan," and John Lennon's "Working Class Hero" making up the three leadoff tracks. Faithfull's '80s versions of "Sister Morphine" (which she co-wrote with the Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger and Keith Richards) and "As Tears Go By" are also here, along with her exotic cover of Patti Smith's "Ghost Dance" and the anti-ballad "So Sad." Faithfull's witchy voice is a spellbinding instrument that makes every song an expressionistic experience. The whiskey-soaked "Trouble in Mind" and the Tom Waits-penned "Strange Weather," both from Faithfull's jazz-dabbling period, are perfect vehicles for her moribund-melody delivery. For a best-of collection, there is an almost thematic coherence as the singer lowers the gloom-and-angst shroud like few other vocalists can. Songs like the aptly titled "Sleep" are so sparse and devoid of momentum they seem to exist in a psychic netherworld that only the singer herself can ...

$7.96   (MP3 Available for Download)
STRIPPED is an Enhanced multi-media CD. Its interactive material, playable on any CD-ROM player, includes highlights from the VOODOO LOUNGE CD-ROM, electronic liner notes, photos, lyrics, song outtakes and live videos of "Shattered," "Tumbling Dice" and "Like A Rolling Stone."
As the longest continuously surviving band in rock and roll, The Rolling Stones have become a symbol of staying power, and STRIPPED proves why. Its lean, live, acoustic format draws from their Voodoo Lounge tour, which mixed the band's early material with some judiciously picked covers and a handful of country-blues classics, giving the band more punch as a live act that it's had in the studio in years.
The Stones' clever interpretation of Bob Dylan's "Like A Rolling Stone" finds Mick Jagger asking "how does it feel to be on your own"; some thirty years after the song first hit the charts, the question still rings true. There is no other band like The Rolling Stones, and they ...

Bon Jovi's 2007 effort, LOST HIGHWAY, found New Jersey's finest brandishing a Nashville-tinged, commercial rock/country crossover sound that wasn't too far a stretch from their usual arena rocking anthems for the Everyman. And where that album sometimes tried too hard to fit into the conventions of trad country, sacrificing some of the fist-pumping potency of their best `90s-era efforts in the process, THE CIRCLE, the band's fifth studio ...

Stacy has been singing for mostly all of her life. As a child, Stacy enjoyed listening to music greats like Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, and Roberta Flack. For playtime she would sing around the house with her mother. By the age of 5, Stacy performed in front of her first large audience at a church event. Stacy continued singing as a hobby and later caught the attention of Sylvia Moy by age 13. Mrs. Moy, having written many of Stevie Wonders earlier hits, urged Stacy into auditioning for a grant offered by the city of Detroit. The young artist showed off her vocal talents and won a position in a master vocal class, which ended up be taught Sylvia Moy.Stacy would continue honing her talents by joining many bands and choirs.
