| | Billy Paul Collection CD Billy Paul Discography of CDs
Billy Paul became a household name in 1972 when his soulfully orchestral ode to his indiscretion with a mysterious married lady, last name Jones, spent the final three weeks of the year at #1 on the pop charts. While Paul is still inextricably tied to "Me & Mrs. Jones," the darkly expressive R&B singer enjoyed a rich career, extending from funky statement songs like "Am I Black Enough For You?" to the straightforward yet starkly seductive "Let's Make A Baby." SUPER HITS provides a simple, sweet overview of Paul's often woefully underexplored career.
Recorded between 1972 & 1975.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
Producers: Gamble & Huff.
Compilation producers: Bruce Dickinson, Jeff Jones.

Collection album
 $11.18    
Last time around, Shakira touched upon so many styles she couldn't be contained on one album, splitting Oral Fixation in two. This time, she focuses on one sound only: a pulsating electro-disco that crosses all boundaries and welcomes all nationalities. Such concentration behooves Shakira, freeing her to release her inner She Wolf, a wild wacko who's as coo coo as she is carnal. And for as sexy as Shakira is -- crucially, her music is sexy too -- what really gives She Wolf its bite is her inspired ...

| | Katy Moffatt Child-Bride CD (1990)
Collection music CDs
$14.29
On the follow-up to 1989's Walkin' on the Moon, Katy Moffatt decided to crank up the volume a bit and let her hair down. Child Bride is anything but a delicate recording. It's closer to rockabilly and the woolly side of country than any singer/songwriter outing. Some of the musicians who appear here are Carlo Nuccio from the Continental Drifters, former Lone Justice guitar ace Marvin Etzioni (who wrote the title track and another one), guitarist Duane Jarvis, Dave Alvin, the late Donald Lindley, Pat McLaughlin, Greg Leisz, and Los Lobos' Steve Berlin, among others. This is a singer's effort; uncharacteristically, Moffatt didn't pen a track here, but in her readings of these songs, they become hers. From the rolling country rockabilly of the title track to her deep Memphis soul meets Nashville contemporary country reading of John Hiatt's "We Ran" to a loose-wristed rocking reading of Arthur Alexander's "You Better Move On," Moffatt digs deep into her cowboy angel alto and delivers with raucous passion and a gritty verve that's closer to Wanda Jackson than it is Tammy Wynette -- and that's only on side one. The second half opens with another Etzioni rocker, entitled "False Alarm," that pulls out the stops before Moffatt turns to a slower -- though not slow -- articulation of the Doc Pomus classic "Lonely Avenue." Pat McLaughlin's "You Done Me Wrong" is given classic rockabilly treatment, but it leans a lot heavier on honky tonk country than it does on rock. The set closes with the Wesley Rose classic "Settin' ...

Matthew Sweet quietly spent most of the '90s carrying the power-pop torch. On Sweet's seventh album, gifted eccentric Phil Spector became his inspiration. Although he avoided going for an orchestral sound a la Spector, the native Nebraskan emulates the production genius by layering as many as five players on drums, bass, keyboards, and guitars. Reuniting with producer/drummer Fred Maher (who co-produced Sweet's 1991 smash GIRLFRIEND), the power-pop maven went so far as to enlist the help of famed California studio vet Carol Kaye (who played on PET SOUNDS along with hundreds of '60s and '70s sessions) to play bass.
Overflowing with reverb and echo, IN REVERSE tackles the uncertainties of love and relationships. Unsavory paramours abound in Sweet's songs, whether it's the person whose true colors come out in ...
| | 8head CD (2004)
Collection album
$15.19
8HEAD is a story of determination. The band is an obsession of Dave Moore and Ethan Piper -- two passionate musicians stubborn enough to pursue music without a band, a record deal or a snowball's chance in hell of ever being heard. Based in New York City, Ethan and Dave grew frustrated with the scene. They'd been playing together since 1988 and took multiple swings at the NYC rock scene in the mid-90s. Positive that the music industry was undergoing a major restructuring, they decided to break their sound outside of the usual channels. In late 2000, Ethan and Dave committed themselves to compile an album's worth of material, rehearse it, record it, produce it and promote it locally and on the Web. At the time, both Ethan and Dave were full-time, corporate chumps with very little free time to tackle this mammoth project. Also, they were only a drum and guitar combo, with one great singer (Ethan) and one fledging, out-of-tune crooner (Dave). The pickings were slim, but the boys didn't care, they knew they had something.After spending months in pre-production rehearsals, Ethan and Dave hit the studio to capture a stripped-down, acoustic version of their best material. Although electric rockers at heart, they pursued acoustic arrangements because they planned to play out as a duo (shown feasible band alternatives by the White Stripes and Local H) and a trio or foursome when they gained some momentum. Most importantly, the lads thought if the songs rocked acoustically, how great would they sound with ...
