String Quartet Tribute to Elton John picks 13 selections from the songwriter's lengthy career and reinterprets them with violin, viola, cello, and guitar. It's interesting that there's no piano here -- like when the violins handle the hesitating chorus of "Bennie and the Jets," or the sighing cello that makes up for the lack of tinkling high notes in "Candle in the Wind." "Tiny Dancer" is a highlight here, as is "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues" with its loping pop updating of a blues rhythm. Other standouts include the stately violin lead of "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" and the weird, almost country arrangement of "Bitch Is Back." The intriguing oddness of the latter makes you wonder what Vitamin's stable of string players could do with "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting." ~ Johnny Loftus

Purchase String Quartet Tribute To Elton John CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Susan Boyle I Dreamed A Dream CD (2009)
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John album
$9.55 Susan Boyle's grand unveiling on Britain's Got Talent was with a song from Les Miserables - the very song that lends this album its title -- and if she could become an international sensation based on a show tune standard, there's no reason for her to change her approach on her debut, since that's the sound that made her a star. Plus, a large part of Boyle's appeal is that she's a middle-aged woman recalling a bygone era when there were singers that appealed to an adult audience by offering soft, stately versions of pop hits and standards. That time was the ...
| | Jimmy Buffett Buffet Hotel CD (2009)
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John CD music
$9.74 Since Jimmy Buffett never leaves his comfort zone, it's hard to call 2009's Buffet Hotel a return to roots but, in a way, it is. Discounting the mock rap on "Turn Up the Heat and Chill the Rosé," this album doesn't even have the lingering country and reggae flavors that seasoned 2006's Take the Weather with You, with all of the songs riding a cool, mellow country-rock ...

| | Lady Gaga Fame Monster CD (2009)
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John songs
$8.79 Initially planned solely as a standard double-disc reissue in the wake of the blockbuster success of The Fame, Lady Gaga decided to release the new material as a separate EP called The Fame Monster in addition to the standard two-CD set, where it's tacked onto a now standardized version of her debut. It's a nice move for fans, plus it helps emphasize the new material, which does ...

| | Bon Jovi Circle CD (2009)
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John CD music
$11.17 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 effort of the `00s, is a back-to-roots return to form focused on uplifting ...

| | A-Teens Pop 'Til You Drop CD (2002)
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John songs
$10.79 Additional personnel includes: Alice Cooper (vocals); Grizzly, Tysper, Shawn Dark, Red One (various instruments).
Sweden has always provided a steady source of bubble-gum pop, dating back to Abba's '70s heyday, and right on through the late-'90s dominance of one-man hit factory Max Martin. A*Teens keep the ear candy coming on POP 'TIL YOU DROP, in which the handsome Swedish teen quartet of Amit Paul, Dhani Lennevald, Sara Lumholdt, and Marie Serneholt give American counterparts N*Sync and Britney a run for their money. When they're not dishing out infectious electronica-flavored dance jams like "Floor Filler" and "Slam," A*Teens dabble with thumping new wave ("Turn To Perfection") and even Andean folk-flavored flourishes ("Cross My Heart").
Starry-eyed teens everywhere will undoubtedly lose themselves ...

| | Coral Nightfreak & The Sons Of Becker CD (2004) (Import)
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John CD music
$17.09 Coral's NIGHTFREAK & THE SONS OF BECKER features 11 tracks records live in the studio, including "Precious Eyes," "Venom Cable," and "I Forgot My Name."
Released less than half a year after Magic and Medicine, Nightfreak and the Sons of Becker is another eclectic and accomplished patchwork of tantalizing neo-psychedelia from the prolific lads the Coral. For this go-around, they spent a week recording a jammy bunch of tunes and carousing through a myriad of musical inspirations with studio wiz Ian Broudie manning the knobs. While such a scenario seems like it might lead to a bunch of demo-quality throwaways, these 11 songs are mostly potent and exhilarating. The mood and mannerisms of Magic and Medicine again rule the day, which means another batch of timeless songs brimming with tambourines, vintage keyboards, singsong melodies, and rousing rock passages. If the album has a more experimental tone, it's ...
| | Ill Ease Exorcist CDs (2004) W/Bonus Disc
String Quartet Tribute To Elton John music CDs
$10.39 The Exorcist does the tighten up on Ill Ease's shtick. Whether or not it's at the expectance of her new and larger label, Too Pure, IE maestro Elizabeth Sharp has leashed Live at the Holiday Sin's meandering muse and created her strongest set yet. That doesn't mean she's gone all pop. The same chattering and stilted percussion winds through Exorcist, but it's matched to a series of robust, tensile guitar riffs straight from a '90s ...
