| | Vince Gill Platinum & Gold Collection CD Vince Gill Discography of CDs
Recorded between 1984 & 1989. Includes liner notes by Rich Kienzle.
Released in 2003, Platinum & Gold Collection is a mid-line collection of highlights from Vince Gill's recordings for RCA in the '80s. He wasn't with the label for a very long time, releasing just three albums during the decade, so there isn't that much to draw from for a compilation. Consequently, it should be little surprise that there's a lot of overlap between Platinum & Gold Collection and previous RCA-era Gill compilations -- for instance, nine of the ten tracks on 1989's Best of Vince Gill are on this 12-track comp, while ten of these are on the 20-track 1995 collection Essential. So, if you have either of those previous collections, this likely isn't necessary, but if you're in the market for a solid overview of his RCA work, Platinum & Gold fits the bill nicely, since it has all the big hits -- "Oklahoma Borderline," "Cinderella," "Let's Do Something," "Everybody's Sweetheart," and the Rosanne Cash duet "If It Weren't for Him" -- at a reasonable price. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
This is part of BMG's Heritage Platinum & Gold Collection.
Producers: Richard Landis, Emory Gordy Jr., Barry Beckett.
Compilation producer: Gretchen Brennison.

Speed of Life is the first studio album by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band in five years and celebrates the group's 43rd anniversary with three of its original members still intact (and no, the number 43 was not a typo). It also finds them reduced once more to a quartet with the departure of multi-instrumentalist Jimmy Ibbotson. That said, the band has lost none of its immediacy, power, or expert presentation of both original material and songs from some of Nashville's finest. Released by Sugar Hill Records (who distributes their NGDB Records imprint), the group recorded the set live in the studio. Produced by veterans George Massenburg and Jon Randall Stewart, this set sounds inspired, fresh, and like the NGDB has been utterly rejuvenated. It combines the old-/good-timey feel of their concert performances -- ...

In the context of popular music, a ballad is usually a slow song dealing with either romance or an emotional occasion.

Platinum & Gold Collection music CDs
$18.99
Although she tends to be labeled a singer/songwriter most of the time, North Carolina songstress Eliza Lynn has a lot more folk in her repertoire than the standards of singing/songwriting. The Weary Wake Up, her sophomore release, comes in part as a result of a surprisingly positive response to a track included on a Putumayo compilation. Here, she bounces and rolls through a series of styles, anchored by her occasionally Bonnie Raitt-like vocals and a bit of Piedmont guitar. The album opens with a fine piece of loping singer/songwriter fare, then throws in a touch of soul for its follow-up. The third track, "Conrad," is the type of music that Moby builds upon -- a careful, sparse, but undeniably catchy banjo riff courses through the piece, alternately in counterpoint and parallel with Lynn's vocals. Some gospel-influenced work follows in "How Many Times," and urban blues in "Intolerance Blues." The banjos come back in "Bound," but with a faster format ŕ la Appalachian stomps and a few touches of electric guitar peeking in. Some country-funk in "Stared at Me" leads into a weaker but more deliberate form of funk in the aptly titled "Get on Up." "Puddin Pie" sounds like a nostalgic childrens song, and the tracks that together form the title each carry a bit of more pure folk and singer/songwriter. The album ends on one of the deeper, more ornamented tracks that perhaps displays the essence of Lynn's performing style -- a delicate touch on the guitar, some additional folk instrumentation, a quietly thumping piano, and an almost cabaret-style vocal quality. Though the album jumps all over the map, it makes a fine listening experience. Fans of contemporary folk should enjoy it, but perhaps more so those who aren't already initiated into the genres will enjoy the range of styles and skills. ~ Adam Greenberg
Eliza is excited to release her sophomore release "The Weary Wake Up" and has found wonderful encouragement from her musically rich community. "Asheville is incredible," says Miss Lynn, "there is music everywhere, from pop to jazz to bluegrass and old-time to hip-hop to world music and fusions of all of these." This diverse mix of music greatly influenced her new release, but perhaps her greatest influence to the direction of the album came from local producers ...
