Memory Lane CD music
$11.49 
Originally issued on CD without the song "Last Night When We Were Young."
Digitally remastered by Larry Walsh (Capitol Recording Studios).
Recorded in 1955, this superbly arranged and sung set of slow ballads can lay claim to being the world's first "concept album." Of course, in classical music, song cycles had been around since Schubert, but a whole set of pop tunes arranged around a central theme or mood was something new in popular music. With the advent of the LP in 1953, commercial pop music was beginning to take itself seriously. As to be expected, Frank Sinatra did it first and best.
Sinatra is in utter command of this material--vocally relaxed yet focused on conveying what these hand-picked "torch" songs still have to say to the modern listener. Throughout he projects his signature manly vulnerability without seeming maudlin ...
| | Very Best Of Bobby Sherman CD (2000)
Memory Lane music CDs
$10.95 
Digitally remastered by Dan Hersch (Digiprep, Hollywood, California).
Bobby Sherman never got much critical respect during the prime years of his career. Oh, he sold tons of records, to be sure, but the virtues of those recordings were eclipsed by his good looks and the publicity successes of his management, which got him on the cover of every teen magazine in the country, seemingly for four years running. Listening to this collection, it dawns on one just how much respect he did deserve as a singer (and reportedly still does, based on what people say of his 21st century shows). This is bubblegum rock, to be sure, but it's all amazingly "unsticky" for bubblegum rock, and Sherman's delivery on the 18 songs here is solid and effective, and holds up across 40 years. When he delivers the key lines from "Seattle" (the theme song from his series Here Come the Brides), he makes you feel that he feels the "hopes and fears" referred to, and the loneliness behind "time to leave your home and your loved ones" -- and then he turns around and melds into the jauntiness of "Easy Come, Easy Go" just as easily. ...

| | Les Brown Bandland/Revolution In Sound CD (2001)
Memory Lane CD music
$11.59
This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out-of-print Les Brown LPs: Bandland and Revolution in Sound. Each of the 24 tracks has a continuity dominated by Tin Pan Alley and jazz standards. Highlights include "Woodchopper's Ball," "Got a Date With an Angel," "One O'Clock Jump," "Little Brown Jug," and "And the Angels Sing." This is an enjoyable reissue from the massive Les Brown catalog on Columbia Records, but most listeners would be better served with one of the many compilations in print. ~ Al Campbell
Originally released on Columbia (8288) & Columbia (8618).
2 LPs on 1 CD: BANDLAND (1960)/REVOLUTION IN SOUND (1962).
Personnel: Herb Ellis, Howard Roberts , Tony Rizzi (guitar); Gerald Vinci, Mischa Russell, John DeVoogdt, ...
| | After Forever Invisible Circles CD (2004)
Memory Lane music CDs
$13.59
After Forever once again went the concept album route with their third full-length effort, 2004's Invisible Circles. Only this time, the Dutch gothic-operatic-death-power-prog metal band (yes, all that!) arguably placed as much emphasis on their lyrics (discussing a young girl's coming of age tale in all matters of faith, love, loneliness, and even technology) as they did the music. Almost too much, some might argue, since the challenges of making sense of such an overwrought story line and numerous characters often distracted listeners from the band's concurrent attempts to uncork the same sort of complex yet fluidly composed prog epics heard on prior efforts. To wit: certain songs, like excellent first single "Between Love and Fire" and the conversely tepid "Blind Pain" actually break down for lengthy bits of dialogue; while special guests like Aina and Ayeron siren Amanda Somerville and Rhapsody collaborator Jay Lansford were called in to perform additional players in the drama. Nothing that a few dozen listens won't solve, mind you, and, given the chance, somewhat unfulfilling outings like "Sins of Idealism," "Digital Deceit," and the nearly flat-lining piano ballad "Eccentric" are handsomely compensated by positively dazzling efforts such as "Through Square Eyes," "Two Sides" and "Victim of Choices." All of these lead up to the suitably cathartic climax via album linchpin "Reflections." By then, After Forever's reliably brilliant musicianship and triple-threat vocal assault -- featuring spectacular soprano frontwoman Floor Jansen backed by orchestrated choirs and male vocalists Sander Gommans (grunts) and Bas Maas (clean) -- have somehow managed to salvage the day in most respects. To be sure, Invisible Circles shows many echoes of Marillion's Misplaced Childhood, and ultimately fails to conjure up a flawless single on the ...
