Clyde McPhatter's high, gentle tenor gave both the Dominoes and the Drifters some of their greatest hits, and his solo work found him melding R&B and pop into something resembling early soul. Like both Nat King Cole and Sam Cooke, the two singers he most resembles, McPhatter worked toward a middle ground that would combine both black and white audiences, but although he scored several huge R&B hits, he never crossed over regularly to the pop charts. This brief collection features his late-'50s solo work for Atlantic Records, including the Brook Benton-penned "A Lover's Question" and the elegant "Since You've Been Gone." Atlantic's Deep Sea Ball anthology assembles all ten of these tracks plus nine more, and may be a better place to start, but for the budget conscious, Treasure of Love & Other Favorites hits most of the high points. ~ Steve Leggett Treasure Of Love & Other Favorites Music Clyde McPhatter Treasure Of Love & Other Favorites Songs | 1. | Treasure of Love  | |

In pre-release interviews, Royce da 5'9" laid out a perfect description of his style: a Detroit kid brought up on Nas whose head was sent spinning once Eminem came around. Three years in the making--twelve months in prison for a DUI being part of the problem--STREET HOP often has a solid foundation that's absolutely classic in feel but also features those quirky, sick-o rhymes that are distinctly post-Shady. "I mix a between Chris Brown and Chris Jericho/Where's your daughter?" is an unsettling bit from the freaky track "Street Hop 2010" which goes on to reference Marlon Brando's Apache friend picking up his Oscar right before rattling off some psycho-babble about "syphilis nun chucks" and other bizarre whatnot. Hard to believe the convincing R&B stunner "Thing for Your Girlfriend" could follow with all its radio-friendly polish while elsewhere "New ...

"Is there still a place for music that is interesting, well-crafted and cerebral?" Salem Hill's leader, Carl Groves, asks. "God, I hope so." Salem Hill was formed in 1991 by Groves, bassist Pat Henry, and drummer Kevin Thomas. Michael Dearing, a childhood chum of Groves' joined a bit later. Their goal was simple: Make music of creative and artistic merit. Not an easy task in the blossoming Grunge era. Nevertheless, the band recorded and released their debut, "Salem Hill" in the spring of 1992. This album, along with its follow-up, "Different Worlds" in 1993 garnered promising, if limited reviews. "Our subject matter on the first two albums is esoteric, to say the least," Thomas explains. "We'd perform a song based upon Stephen King and Peter Straub's The Talisman ("Between the Two"), and follow it with a song about Judas ("Aceldama"). I think folks came away impressed, but confused."The confusion was temporary. After a 3-year hiatus from performing and recording, the band reassembled to write and record their third album, 1997's "Catatonia." Groves explains, "'Catatonia' is a concept album depicting the internal journey of a man born without the ability to dream. To compensate, he is able to self-induce these catatonic states at will and transport himself back to his youth, as well as to fictional places where he can interact with characters from his favorite books and stories. The catch is that as he gets older-and bigger, it becomes more and more difficult to leave Catatonia. So he avoids it for the early part of his adulthood. After years of living a mundane and routine life, in bitterness he decides to enter Catatonia, knowing that he'll probably be stuck there permanently. As fate would have it, once there, he experiences his first dream!" Propelled by such powerful songs as "Peculiar People," "Awake," and the 11 minute tour-de-force, "The Judgment," Catatonia received critical acclaim and precipitated an invitation for the band to play 1997's international music festival, Progday, in Chapel Hill, NC.The success of "Catatonia" enabled the band to pull out all the stops in recording their next album, 1998's "The Robbery of Murder." Another conceptual piece, The Robbery of Murder is an emotional roller coaster ride which follows the protagonist's quest to hunt down and kill the drunk driver responsible for killing his father. Christopher Thelen of The Daily Vault writes, "No single disc has caused me to be moved as The Robbery of Murder did. This is a powerful listen." Following international critical acclaim, European distributors, Cyclops Records, signed the band to their label. Thomas explains that one of the biggest benefits of this partnership is that it has enabled the band to remaster and re-release Salem Hill's entire back catalogue. 2000 saw the release of the band's fifth album, "Not Everybody's Gold." Although not conceptual in nature like the past two releases, Not Everybody's Gold is another offering that carries the listener on a musical journey. Capping off the album is the majestic 28-minute ...
