The High Dials' retro mod-freakbeat songs work much better in small doses. Their album, A New Devotion, was a long blur of similar-sounding tunes that sounded ripped from the Small Faces or the Action's unreleased archive. This EP is much more interesting. It kicks off with a tight, bouncy remix of one of the best tracks from the album, "Fields in Glass." The mix boosts the drums and bass and peels some of the atmosphere off, leaving it sounding like the kind of track you want to hear blasting from car radios on summer nights. The sitar and horn-filled soundtrack to a day of mad shopping on Carnaby Street-styled instrumental "Things Are Getting Better" is also taken from the album, and sounds fresh taken out of context. The two songs that are exclusive to this release, "City Rivers" and "The House Where Trouble Sleeps," are not as strong, but don't let the side down too much. Two more mixes of "Fields in Glass" round out the set with the "Club Mix" boosting the drums even higher and stretching out a touch, while the "Stained Glass Mix" dubs the song out, sounding like a classic Stone Roses song in the process. Stick around for a hidden remix of album track "Diamonds in the Dark" that sounds like a brilliant mashup of the Cure's "Close to Me," the Stone Roses' "Shoot You Down," and a track from the lost second Action record. Tracks like this and the revamped "Fields of Glass," as well as the newer tracks, seem to show the band heading in a much more satisfying direction of sonic exploration. ~ Tim Sendra

1976's A NEW WORLD RECORD is both a classic of commercial '70s pop and an archetypal ELO album. From the outer-space synths and rich orchestrations that open the album to Jeff Lynne's meticulous production and Beatlesque melodies, A NEW WORLD RECORD is magnificent ear candy. Both ambitious enough to appeal to "serious" rock fans and ultra-catchy enough to sound terrific on Top 40 radio (the plaintively gorgeous, McCartney-like "Telephone Line" and the anthemic "Livin' Thing" were well-deserved smashes), ELO was one of the few '70s bands whose appeal covered both the FM and AM spectrums. The album even resurrects ...

On one beautiful sunny day last spring, I noticed my wife, Michele sitting at a table that overlooks the patio of our home in Orlando, Fla. That table had become a symbol to us as a private place in our bedroom, where over a cup of coffee or glass of wine, we would discuss important matters, make decisions, dream of the future or just contemplate the beginnings of the universe. The table was only for two, yet sort of a forum for our sharing of ideas, feelings and communication. As I observed Michele on this particular day, with earphones on and a notebook and pen in hand, I realized that the table for two had now taken on an additional yet new functional role. In psychological parlance, this phenomenon was often referred to as the empty nest syndrome. Both our children, Rashida and Kiar were now away in college. Although rewarding, the challenges and responsibilities of child rearing were no longer the focal point in our lives. Yet this did not seem so devastating as anticipated. Michele seemed finally able to sense a release of her own creative energy to write and compose music. I too, having recently retired from my profession, felt the freedom to pursue my interests in writing and research in regional African-American history. So out of this, the song: TABLE FOR TWO was inspired. The feeling could not have been more succinctly expressed, than in Michele's words:" You and I alone, sitting at our private little table. No kids, No mama, No Papa, No cousins, No brothers. No Sisters. Just you and I, Not even a dog can come in tonight." Throughout the 80s and 90s, Michele's performances increasingly accumulated an enthusiastic audience from New York (her original beginnings) to the summer vacationers in Martha's Vineyard and in the last six years in the Central Florida Area. She was fortunate to have been able to work with some of the finest musicians in the area, such as Jacqueline Jones, (a well known and talented Blues and Jazz singer); Billy Hall (a truly gifted pianist and keyboard player), both of whom have become friends as well as an inspiration. These friendships led to performances at a host of clubs around Central Florida, such as the Westin Grand Bohemian, House of Blues Blues School House at Disney World, and helped to bring her into contact with many other outstanding musicians. These include Don Black, saxophone; Robert Wawoe, bass and congas; Harvey "Lex"Marshall, drums; and Adib "Spiceman" Solaam, congas. The song LOVE ON THE BEACH, written by Billy Hall and melodically interpreted by Michele, was reminiscent of our summer home community on Martha's Vineyard. The melody of the music reminds one of the whisper of the soft summer breezes of the ...
