Ka album
 $13.29   
While the name Israel Kamakawiwo'ole falls trippingly off few tongues, the Hawaiian singer better known as "Iz" was one of the biggest stars in his home state. Iz first came to public attention as a member of the popular Hawaiian group known as the Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau. His subsequent solo career brought even greater fame, and countless fans were saddened at his untimely death in 1997. Those who mourn his passing will be gladdened by the posthumous release of ALONE IN IZ WORLD, compiled from various recording session outtakes.
While one might expect a big, deep sound to emanate from a gargantuan-sized body like that of Iz, the hefty singer actually possessed a gorgeous, fragile tenor voice full of tenderness ...
| | Best Of The Guess Who CD (1971) Bonus Tracks
Ka CD music
$6.79 
The Guess Who always seemed a bit like the Canadian predecessor/counterpart to Grand Funk Railroad, but they typically fared far better with the critics because of the versatility that they possessed. That trait is very evident on this collection of hits and great songs. From the opening "These Eyes," with its orchestral strings and Zombies-like baroque pop feel to the classic AOR crunge of "American Woman," the Guess Who played a wide variety of music. It is sometimes hard to believe that the same group that brought ...
| | Dead Can Dance Aion CD (1990) Reissue; Special Edition
Ka music CDs
$11.99
The music of Dead Can Dance has long been a favorite of the "Goth" crowd; however, AION is really the first one of the band's records that can actually be called Gothic in the classic, renaissance sense. Arguably Dead Can Dance's most successful record, it contains the band's most consistent set of songs since SPLEEN AND IDEAL. Widening their view to encompass more of the ancient world than with earlier records, Dead Can Dance explore styles from Northern Europe ("The Song of the Sibyl") to the Middle East ("Radharc"), with stops along the way at a number of other surprising locations.
The fact that it is based ...

| | Eek-A-Mouse U-Neek CD (1991)
Ka CD music
$9.15
In the 1980s, Eek-A-Mouse (a quirky, eccentric toaster/singer) made significant contributions to dubwise, which evolved into the more abrasive dancehall style associated with Shabba Ranks, Nardo Ranks and Lt. Stitchie. Essentially, toasters like Mouse are reggae's equivalent of rappers, although dub was around long before hip-hop emerged in the late '70s. U-Neek finds the distinctive Mouse incorporating hip-hop touches here and there without becoming as forceful as the dancehall artists he influenced. Most of this CD -- which ranges "Gangster Chronicles" (a number that finds him adding lyrics to the theme from The Godfather) and the troubling "Rude Boys a Foreign" to a cover of Led Zeppelin's "Dyer Maker" -- is fairly melodic. Despite the presence of rappers Daddy-O ...

| | Lee Barber Thief And Rescue CD (2009)
Ka songs
$13.15
Lee Barber's first solo album, "Thief and Rescue", was made in Austin with producer Brian Beattie. Brian has worked with Okkervil River, Bill Callahan, Daniel Johnston and Shearwater. From the start, the intention was to grow an organic pulsing sigh of a record that exists somewhere outside of time, somewhere between Stephen Foster and George Harrison, between Townes Van Zandt and Van Dyck Parks. Born at the intersection of private loss and the public destruction visited on the city of New Orleans, the album is ultimately a celebration of music, of it's essential spiritual cadence. At times it sounds like it wafted up on a swollen storm cloud. The songs poured from a wounded heart into a hot iron skillet where the fire was turned down to simmer with generous chunks of rock meat and lazy funeral horns! slow curing lamentations that vibrate with sweet distortion."Thief and Rescue" is a labor of love paid for with bartered paintings and construction labor. It was built with generous contributions from old friends. Longtime fan from The Barbers days, Will Sheff of Okkervil River duets with Lee on 'Darla.' The album closes with an open invitation, a seven minute climb into joyful music making, 'Let's get lost in a song about nothing, sung by no one. Do you hear? 'cause there's nowhere that I'd rather be!'Press for the record:'a grand reverb soaked celebration of music and life. ' - JFelton, Record Dept."It's a brooding album that questions the validity of music during troubled times, then comes to the conclusion that even when a good song is all you have, it can be enough ! one of the best Austin albums of 2009. ' - M. Corcoran, Austin American-Statesman'Thief and Rescue takes an alternate route ...
