Purchase Gee Whiz CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Ozark Mountain Daredevils Time Warp: The Very Best Of... CD (2000)
Gee Whiz album
 $11.99   
Digitally remastered by Jim Phillips (Universal Mastering Studios West, North Hollywood, California).
Although it omits three songs from the far less comprehensive (and deleted) 1983 12-track Best Of, and doesn't include any live or post-A&M music, this 2000 release stands as the final word on the Ozark Mountain Daredevils' career. Cherry-picking 21 tunes from their five studio album stint circa 1974-1978 -- with the lion's share coming from their first three albums and only three selections from the final two -- this is pretty much all you'll need from the under-recognized band that worked in the '70s country-rock shadows of Poco and Firefall, but weren't as dependable or pop savvy as either. In fact, their biggest hit, the Hall & Oates, blue-eyed soul-styled "Jackie Blue," was so atypical of the band's characteristically down-home approach that it ultimately may have been more damaging to their career than if they had clicked with a song more representative of their crisp, rural country pop/rock. As enjoyable and pleasantly organic as they ...
| | 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Burl Ives CD (2001)
Gee Whiz CD music
$7.95 
Recorded between 1945 and 1964. Includes liner notes by Joseph Laredo.
Digitally remastered by Doug Schwartz (Audio Mechanics, Los Angeles, California).
MCA/Decca's full-priced 18-track Burl Ives collection Greatest Hits, released in 1996, was still in print when the label issued this 12-track budget set five years later, so it's worth comparing the two. The less-expensive album actually contains a couple of big hits -- Ives' Top 40 pop/Top Ten country cover of Hank Thompson's "Wild Side of Life" from 1952 and the 1962 single "Mary Ann Regrets," which went Top 40 pop and Top 20 country and easy listening -- not featured on the more expensive one. In fact, there is an overlap of only seven tracks between the two albums. On the whole, Greatest ...

| | Ozark Mountain Daredevils It'll Shine When It Shines CD (1974)
Gee Whiz songs
$13.45
Following the success of their self-titled debut, the Ozark Mountain Daredevils' sophomore release, It'll Shine When It Shines, continues on their already established path of California-style country-rock. This release contained what would ultimately prove to be their greatest hit, "Jackie Blue," which ended up peaking at number three on the pop chart. Although "Jackie Blue" is by far the least countrified track on the album, it embodies the casual, understated groove of the band that could be found on any of the Daredevils' releases. Although when examined closely the album is really three neatly separate albums by three maturing songwriters (John Dillon, Steve Cash, and the underrated ...
| | Omar & The Howlers Muddy Springs Road CD (1995)
Gee Whiz album
$8.89
Muddy Springs Road, originally released in 1995 on Watermelon Records, was the album in which Omar Kent Dykes finally started putting everything together, opening up his sound with additional players, including harmonica ace Gary Primich and session drummer George Rains, while at the same time reining in his vocal excesses and writing solid, autobiographical songs like the two that lead off this album, "Muddy Springs Road" and "Black Bottom." Both songs draw on Dykes' childhood impressions growing up in McComb, MS, and both give off an ominous, swampy glow that gains emotional nuance from Dykes' gruff, raspy vocals, which sound at times like Wolfman Jack fronting a blues band -- which ...

| | Best Of Bar-Kays CD (1993)
Gee Whiz music CDs
$11.99 
The Bar-Kays' music derives its groovability from a hard driving backbeat, tight horn riffs, and the band's overall hypnotic feel. Every song on THE BEST OF BAR-KAYS is as infectious as it is catchy. This is get-down-on-the-dance-floor music from the very first note to the last.
Songs such as "Shake Your Rump to the Funk," "I'll Dance," ...
| | Lionel Richie Time CD (1998)
Gee Whiz songs
$6.95
Silky-voiced Richie intersperses his typical romantic ballads with funkier, R&B and rap influenced songs on TIME. Standouts include the thought-provoking "Zoomin'," ("One mother's love shot down in a minute/But y'know there's two mothers crying/One son has paid the price, lost his life/One's locked away") and "To the Rhythm," which features overtly political (if mellow) rapping. Richie's melodic sense and soulful vocals lend themselves especially ...

| | Marty Ehrlich Spark! CD (2007)
Gee Whiz CD music
$12.59
As jazz is an instrumental medium, it's a challenge for its players to make sociopolitical statements with its music without the benefit of liner notes to give the work context. Once the listener understands some of the ideas that inspired this creative and lyrical duo's powerfully emotional project, its passionate and percussive tracks take on a deeper meaning. That doesn't mean one can't enjoy multi-movement pieces like the opening "Hymn" -- which features Myra Melford's bluesy piano touch and some of Marty Ehrlich's most urgent and emotional alto work here -- without a scorecard. It's just that when you know that the following two songs, the thoughtful and hauntingly reflective "A Generation Comes and Another Goes" and the crafty, percussive "I See a Horizon," were inspired by the poetry of Muhammad Mahdi al-Jawahiri, a deeper meaning emerges. The duo explains that al-Jawahiri was a poet who spoke eloquently on a previous war in Iraq in the 1940s, and that they're offered here as prayers for peace and joy in Iraq and throughout the world, "wherever the sanctity of life is violated." That's heavy stuff, but it's actually hopeful in the hands of Ehrlich, whose vibrant, wistful clarinet musings counter Melford's darker piano runs. The duo also takes on more personal issues, offering a heartfelt New Orleans-inspired impressionism ...
| | Gayla Drake Paul Ethik: Blues And Mud Flowers, Soundtrack For The Movie By Francesco Paladino CD (2006)
Gee Whiz music CDs
$18.99
This is a story of a connection made through the magic of CDBaby! Italian film-maker Francesco Paladino was browsing through CDBaby one evening and came across the music of Gayla Drake Paul, and he loved it so much he ordered several CDs. Gayla, being a good CDBaby member, e-mailed Francesco promptly, thanking him for his order. He e-mailed back, asking if she wanted to collaborate on a film, and Gayla immediately said 'Yes!' A few weeks of discussion, planning and mutual inspiration later, and a project was born! This is the soundtrack CD for the movie, called 'Bluesblood and Mud Flowers,' which is currently in production ...
