Six years after his debut, singer/songwriter Conrad Lambert finally returns with the stripped-down follow-up Loveheart. Blending stark sequencers and electronic beats against simple acoustic guitar parts and the occasional touch of hand percussion, the ten songs on Loveheart are simple to the point of skeletal. At times, one wishes for some of the sonic richness of Stephin Merritt's Magnetic Fields albums, which are the closest stylistic touchstone for this kind of minor-key bedsit electronica; the mock-baroque "Verily" is a fine example of what the album as a whole might have sounded like. However, Lambert's vocals are so appealing -- ranging from the intimate near-whisper of the title track to a delicate higher register that recalls Swedish twee pop star José González -- and he's such a clever melodicist, with a knack for instantly memorable tunes like "Dangerous Heady Love Scheme," that Loveheart remains enchanting despite its minor flaws. ~ Stewart Mason

Purchase Loveheart CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Justin Bieber My World CD (2009) Enhanced CD
Loveheart album
$8.19 Within a couple years, Canadian teenager Justin Bieber went from covering Usher on YouTube to working with Usher. An internet sensation from his renditions of several pop and pop-oriented R&B hits, he was still only 15 years old when he released this, his first album -- though it's more like an EP since it is contains only seven songs that are 25 minutes in duration. Given the comfort level he showed in the material he covered, My World plays it straight, based on the kind of age-appropriate content that would fill out a release from a younger Chris Brown or a junior version of Ne-Yo. Members of the Clutch, Midi Mafia, "Tricky" Stewart, Usher, and a handful of other notable producers and songwriters grant ...
| | Jay-Z The Blueprint 3 CD (2009)
Loveheart CD music
$15.65 On THE BLUEPRINT 3, still unretired Jay-Z announces "the only rapper to rewrite history without a pen." It's a standard Jigga boast, but the Brooklyn icon has earned the bragging by backing it up, particularly on his gold-label, top-shelf BLUEPRINT series. Ever-ready for battle, Jay-Z takes on autotune, crossover radio, and many other hip-hop concerns with the gloriously jagged rap elan for which he's become known.
When Jay-Z first made a series out of his best album, 2001's The Blueprint, it became a game of high expectations. The first volume saw Jay-Z as vital as he'd ever been, storming back to the hardcore after a few years of commercial success. THE BLUEPRINT 2 took a different tack, with guest shots to compliment his sinuous flows. BLUEPRINT 3 is somewhere between the two, closer to the vitality and energy of the original but not without the crossover bids and guest features of the latter. Kanye West is in the producer's chair for seven tracks, and it's clear he was reaching for the same energy level as the original. "What We Talkin' About" begins the album with a wave of surging, oppressive synth, while Jay-Z enumerates (with an intriguing lack of detail) what he's said and what's been said about him, ending with a nod not to the past but the future (and Barack Obama). There's plenty more lyrical violence to come, but most of the targets are much safer than they were eight years earlier (i.e. opening single and smash hit "D.O.A. [Death of Auto Tune]" (railing against the oft-reviled '00s vocal-tweaking phenomenon is not quite as "politically incorrect" as Jay claims through song). Simply put, the production's big-name solid, the rhyming on poing, as Jay-Z becomes more content with ...
| | Beyonce - The Beyonce Experience: Live DVD (2007)
Loveheart music CDs
$10.39 Bringing her chart-topping hits to an ecstatic L.A. crowd, Beyonce's impassioned vocals are only rivaled by her show's incredible onstage spectacles. Sure to delight both new and longtime fans, THE BEYONCE EXPERIENCE features over two hours of music from the singer's blockbuster albums, the musical DREAMGIRLS, and even her Destiny's Child days. Among the songs performed are "Irreplaceable," "Baby Boy," "No No No Pt. 2," and "Say My Name." A historic reunion with Destiny's Child ...
| | Kid Rock Devil Without A Cause CD (1998)
Loveheart songs
$10.75 In the grand tradition of Faith No More, Red Hot Chili Peppers, etc. genre-hopper Kid Rock chooses to lay down his raps over a bed of rock-oriented electric guitar riffs instead of traditional hip-hop tracks and beats. Unlike the aforementioned groups though, Kid Rock comes off more like an adventurous hip-hopper than a rocker with a Public Enemy jones. In an effort to prove himself as "street" as his more conventional rap peers, Rock combines his rockish arrangements with gangsta-derived lyrics full of boasts and sexual braggadocio. DEVIL WITHOUT A CAUSE will appeal to ...
| | Prince Lotusflow3r/ Mplsound/ Elixer CDs (2009)
Loveheart album
$15.99 Prince has never shied away from ambitious projects, and 2009's LOTUSFLOW3R/MPLSOUND/ELIXER is just the latest in a long, illustrious string. The three-disc package builds on the variety evident throughout Prince's career, mixing up rock, funk, R&B, silky-smooth balladry, and left-field genre influences. The third disc, ELIXER, is devoted to Prince's protégé, Bria Valente, who performs Prince-penned songs in the light, female R&B tradition of Prince-sponsored acts like Vanity 6.
But fans will be most interested in the first two discs, which feature the man himself performing new material. LOTUSFLOW3R takes a page from psychedelic rock, and it's a pleasure to hear Prince bring his guitar to the fore and let his Hendrix-influenced ...
| | Toni Braxton Snowflakes CD (2001)
Loveheart CD music
$5.95 The sultry-voiced chanteuse's entry in the Yuletide release stakes should prove a winner with her fans. Anachronistically jazzy arrangements of songs such as "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "Christmas Time is Here" (yes, the PEANUTS song) vie with more contemporary titles like "Christmas in Jamaica" and the sexy "Santa Please." The latter should guarantee Braxton pretty much anything she wants in her Christmas stocking. Elsewhere the gentle "Snowflakes of Love" is wispily seasonal, and Braxton's rendition of "The Christmas Song" is simple and unaffected. SNOWFLAKES is both Christmas-y and sexy, and you really can't ask for better than that.
Engineers include: Thom "TK" Kidd, Craig Taylor, Dave Palmer.
Personnel includes: Toni Braxton, Shaggy (vocals); Keri Lewis, Donnie Scantz (various instruments); Sonny Lallerstedt (electric & classical guitars); Craig Love, Michael Thompson (guitar); ...
| | Chieftains An Irish Evening: Live At The Grand Opera House, Belfast CD (1992)
Loveheart music CDs
$7.59 Recorded live at the Grand Opera House, Belfast, Ireland on July 31 & August 1, 1991. Includes liner notes by Paddy Moloney.
This 1991 live concert featuring The Chieftains with Roger Daltrey and Nancy Griffith is one of the most spirited of all Chieftains releases. Daltrey and Griffith both sound inspired, despite the fact that, as Griffith points out in an interview, they didn't get a sound check due to a bomb scare.
Highlights include Nanci Griffith's dainty "Little Love Affairs," and the C&W "Ford Econoline." In the ...
