Greatest CD music
$11.69
The marketing department at Warner Brothers must have really wanted to get a jump on the holiday season when they released Faith Hill's 2008 Christmas album, JOY TO THE WORLD, in September. Hill's set of carols and traditional songs may not suit the late summer, but that doesn't make JOY TO THE WORLD any less of a treat. As albums like BREATHE and FIREFLIES proved, Hill has no problem crossing over to mainstream audiences, and this Christmas set (the singer's first) should strengthen that appeal. If the song selection itself isn't surprising--including ...
| | Hank Williams Revealed: The Unreleased Recordings CDs (2009) DGBK
Greatest music CDs
$30.79
1951 was a breakthrough year for Hank Williams. He had a string of moderate country hits already under his belt, but the release that year of his version of an old jazz age novelty tune called "Lovesick Blues" suddenly made him a big star. It also meant his touring schedule increased, but he still found time that year to slip into Nashville and prerecord shows for the Mother's Best Flour Company. These good-natured and intimate performances were cut to acetate discs and then played over the air on Nashville's WSM radio station. Brittle, disposable, and made for only a few plays, these acetates were then shelved ...

This tribute album consists of previously released tracks by such modern bluegrass greats as Doyle Lawson, Tony Rice, the Seldom Scene, and Ricky Skaggs; all of the songs were either written by or closely associated with one of the foundational artists of early bluegrass: Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, or Flatt & Scruggs. Fiddler Byron Berline opens the program with Monroe's "Rose of Old Kentucky," on which Berline's ...

Greatest music CDs
$22.55
SACRED HEARTS AND FALLEN ANGELS contains tracks by various bands featuring Gram Parsons as well as his solo material and projects.
Recorded between 1968 & 1976. Includes a 52-page booklet with photographs and liner notes by Holly George-Warren and Bud Scoppa.
Were it not for Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris, the universally acknowledged king and queen of progressive country, countless young alt-counry bands would have never donned their faded Levi's and battered Telecasters in the first place, and even if they did, they'd surely sound a lot different. In 2001, the smart folks at Rhino Records saw fit to release comprehensive two-disc anthologies of both Harris and Parsons, highlighting the way the pair (separately and together) introduced post-Beatles folk and rock sensibilities into country and expanded it without diluting it.
This set chronicles the steps along Parson's path toward creating country-rock, from the hardcore honky-tonk of his International Submarine Band to his ground-breaking work with the Byrds and definitive country-rockers the Flying Burrito Brothers to his transcendent solo albums (where Harris proved a valuable vocal partner). While there's plenty of unadulterated country on this collection, it's the intersection between rock and country, an idea still fresh in its infancy, that is the pivot point here. Parsons's blend of drugged-out imagery, bluegrass fire-and-brimstone, and honky-tonk hell-raising informs tragedy ("$1000 Wedding"), reckless abandon ("Wheels"), piety ("In My Hour of Darkness"), and Americana narrative ("Return of the Grievous Angel") with equal
Personnel includes: Gram Parsons (vocals, guitar, piano); Emmylou Harris (vocals, acoustic guitar, tambourine); Chris Etheridge (vocals, piano, bass); Glen Campbell, Jim McGuinn, Herb Peterson (vocals, guitar); Chris Hillman (vocals, bass); John Hartsford (guitar, banjo); Bernie Leadon (guitar, dobro); John Nuese, Bob Buchanan, Donnie Owens, Clarence White (guitar); Jay Dee Maness, Lloyd Green, Sneaky Pete Kleinow (pedal steel guitar); Alan Munde (banjo); Earl Ball, Bob Felts, Earl Ball, Leon Russell (piano); Steve Snyder (vibraphone); Chris Etheridge, Joe Osbourne, Roy M.

| | Omar Faruk Tekbilek Tree Of Patience CD (2006)
Greatest CD music
$13.09
On his first album in several years, Turkish multi-instrumentalist Omar Faruk Tekbilek stays mostly with what seem to be his primary instruments: the ney and the kavala, both of them end-blown flutes from his native region. What might give the experienced listener pause is the fact that the press materials describe Tekbilek as a "peacemaker and a virtuoso." If there's one thing listeners have learned, it's that musicians who regard themselves as "peacemakers" tend to be more concerned with peace than with music -- and while peace is surely more important than music, a desire to promote peace doesn't often translate into CDs that are worth buying. Artists with a social/spiritual agenda are nothing new on the White Swan label, but they usually temper their transcendence with funky beats. Not Tekbilek. While his music is far from arrhythmic, it's also not very rhythmically interesting -- with the notable exception of "Elation," a jazzy number that owes quite a bit to Darol Anger/Mike Marshall-style new acoustic music, and owes its guitar lick to Bob Marley's "Could You Be Loved." Other tracks are quite pretty and richly textured without being especially interesting: the kanun is lovely on "Why," and "Ghizemli" is dark and beautiful, but the title track is monotonous and overlong, and on "Adanam" he forgot the single most important rule of non-dorky-music-making: children's choirs are always -- always -- a bad idea. Tekbilek's fans won't be disappointed, but those with a more casual interest may not get terribly ...
