Children Of The Sun Music Review

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Borning of a new star
Here in this album you can see the technique and master playing of a 15 year old boy. In the studio disc, it's well executed. It has nothing to do with the music Mike or Sally developed later, but in the disc two, you can hear them jamming and Mike, specially, plays some amazing tunes that he will use 22 years later (in Amarok) and the technique is amazing. A great guitarist and an even grater musician.

Lucinda Williams Sweet Old World CD (1992)

Children Of The Sun

$5.99

After releasing two traditional country blues albums in 1978 and 1980 and a more experimental and pop-oriented album in 1989, Louisiana-born singer/songwriter Lucinda Williams regrouped following the dissolution of the label to which she had been signed and released 1992's stunning SWEET OLD WORLD. While Williams' country blues roots are in evidence throughout the album, the folk and pop tendencies of its self-titled predecessor take over, making SWEET OLD ...

Lyle Lovett Smile CD (2003)

Children Of The Sun

$12.65

By 2003, fans of Lyle Lovett had grown hungry for any offerings from their hero, as his last album of new material was 1996's THE ROAD TO ENSENADA. While awaiting the next batch of compositions from Lovett's witty pen, they'd been treated to a live album (LIVE IN TEXAS) and a double record featuring covers of tunes by other great Texan songwriters (STEP INSIDE THIS HOUSE). Taking a slighty different track, SMILE is a collection of songs the lanky Lovett recorded for various movie soundtracks over the previous 10 years or so. While Lovett obviously didn't pen such classics as "The Summer Wind," "Blue Skies," or the title track himself, he brings his signature laconic vocal style to the fore so convincingly that you'll find yourself campaigning for giving him honorary composer's credit. Collection Of Songs Culled Fr. Various Soundtracks. Recorded at Conway Studios ...

Various Artists Across The Universe CDs (2007) Deluxe Edition

Children Of The Sun

$12.89

The 2007 movie musical ACROSS THE UNIVERSE celebrates beloved songs by the Beatles in the context of a fictional romantic tale from director Julie Taymor. Anchored by young love-struck characters named Jude (Jim Sturgess) and Lucy (Evan Rachel Wood), the film features the cast, which also includes Joe Cocker and U2's Bono, performing Fab Four tunes with great gusto. Among the many highlights of the soundtrack are Sturgess's emotive rendition of the title track, Cocker's stomping version of "Come Together," and an energetic take on "I Am the Walrus" by Bono and the Secret Machines. Like Cirque du Soleil's LOVE show, UNIVERSE presents Beatles classics cast in a dramatic light, giving the album a wide appeal with its boisterous, Broadway veneer. Following the release of the original soundtrack by just a matter of a month (thereby ensuring the irritation of some fans), the deluxe version of Across the Universe is a double-disc, 29-track set containing almost all of the songs featured in Julie Taymor's film, all presented in the order they are in the film. The very fact that this expanded version appeared so closely after the original single-disc soundtrack is bound ...

Prism Small Change CD (1981)

Children Of The Sun

$13.49

Small Change was the last album that Prism recorded before the band's demise (reorganizing with weaker personnel in 1988 and without the late Ron Tabak). Prism substituted its vigorous rock & roll sound for a more refined blend of soft rock amiability, which paid off to some extent. The vocals are toned down, the extravagance of the horns and synthesizers are absent, and the songs reflect a more adult-oriented feel. Written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance, "Don't Let Him Know" is the album's best guitar-driven track, and represents Prism's late-'70s rock & roll sound better than any other. But "Turn on Your Radar" and "Rain," especially, are two of the group's best semi-ballads, containing some of the sharpest songwriting and use of melody that Prism has ever employed. Efforts such as "When Will I See You Again," "When Love Goes Wrong," and "Wings of Love" have the band taking the prettiness of the love song a little too far, and even the delicate piano and keyboard parts sound overly luscious. On the whole, Small Change was a sturdy farewell from one of Canada's most successful bands. ~ Mike DeGagne Small Change was the last album that Prism recorded before the band's demise (reorganizing with ...

Summoning Of The Muse: A Tribute To Dead Can Dance CD (2005)

Children Of The Sun

$12.39

Released as the reunited duo carried out its first American tour in years, Summoning of the Muse, much like the previous year's double-CD tribute The Lotus Eaters, is an enjoyable enough collection of reinterpretations of the work of Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard that can (understandably enough) never fully capture the beauty of the originals. It's still a fine collection in its own right, serving as a bit of a sampler for the Projekt label along the way -- Projekt head Sam Rosenthal's band Black Tape for a Blue Girl contributes to the collection, bemusingly enough with the very same track they did for The Lotus Eaters, "Fortune Presents Gifts Not According to the Book." The other songs are a mix of previously recorded and released efforts and newer work, beginning with Arcana's appropriate choice, "The Arcane" -- as Peter Bjärgö's arrangements always clearly took inspiration from Dead Can Dance, it's a fine start. (As seems appropriate, Arcana are the only band to appear on the album twice, returning with a majestic though admittedly straightforward take on "Enigma of the Absolute"). As is often the case with tributes, the strongest songs are the most original interpretations, often ...
