| | Sally Oldfield Mirrors CD Sally Oldfield Discography of CDs
This double-disc is a very solid collection of Sally Oldfield's recordings for the CBS subsidiary Bronze (don't laugh, Uriah Heep was on there too). Before her brief resurgence in the '90s, Oldfield's recordings were new age before there was such a term. She brought not only a songwriter's sense of elegance to tape, but also an instrumentalist's sense of silence and dynamic. Brother Mike Oldfield helped out on "Waterbearer," perhaps he best-known offering here, as well as on some of the subsequent tracks on later records. Oldfied was the real precursor to people like Enya and Loreena McKennitt, marrying a classicist's sense of arrangement and dynamic to a mystic's heart and a Celtic woman's abiding folk history, myth, and legend. These two discs are impeccably remastered and offer a wonderful introduction to a talent who, at least on this side of the pond, never got her proper due. ~ Thom Jurek

| | Lyle Lovett Smile CD (2003)
Mirrors CD music
$12.59 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 ...

Mirrors CD music
$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 ...

$7.49 Spyder Turner's biggest hit, "Stand By Me," scratches the surface of one of the most multifaceted talents in the music industry. The Clay McMurray produced "Stand By Me," which features Spyder's on-target vocal imitations of many of fellow 1960s soul brothers such as Smokey Robinson, Chuck Jackson and Jackie Wilson, belies Spyder's incredible talent as a songwriter and producer in his own right. Spyder Turner was born Dwight Turner in West Virginia. He moved to Detroit with his family at a very young age. Drawn to music early on, he participated in glee club and boys' ensembles in school. Forming groups with a few buddies was de rigeur for young black men who came up listening to the "bird" groups of the '50s, and Spyder was no exception. He and a few of his friends created a group called the Nonchalants, and they harmonized to the current hits of the day. All of Spyder's singing around Detroit paid off in 1966 when he teamed up with producer Clay McMurray to reinterpret Ben E. King's classic "Stand By Me." The song features Spyder's interpretation of other singers' interpretations of the heartfelt soul classic. As a result of his number one hit record, which started out as a demo, the 19 year old Spyder Turner was invited to perform at the Apollo Theater, where he had won a talent show three years earlier. Later on, Spyder cowrote songs with legendary songwriter Norman Whitfield. One of Spyder's songs, Rose Royce's ...

Rhino is known for their lovingly selected and packaged box sets, but they've completely outdone themselves with LIFE LESS LIVED: THE GOTHIC BOX. It gives a bird's-eye view of the antecedents, offshoots, and major practitioners of Goth rock, attempting--and in large part, succeeding--to provide a definitive overview. Die-hard Goths may quibble over who truly belongs here, but with a track list that includes Joy Division, Bauhuas, Gene Loves Jezebel, Throbbing Gristle, Siouxie and the Banshees, the Sisters of Mercy, and almost everyone else whose music caused listeners to don black eyeshadow, it's difficult ...
