Grand Unification is the eagarly awaited 13 track debut album from Fightstar. It has been produced by Funeral For A Friend, Machine Head & Slipknot. It's an album that's bold in design and spectacular in execution. Island. 2006. Grand Unification Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  Good move for Charlie
I remember watchin MTV News and Tim Kash reported on the new band Fightstar with Charlie Simpson in it, at first i thought nothing of it, that was until i heard the chorus to Palahuiks Laughter that greabbed my attention and made me want to get thier stuff, unfortunatly "They liked you better when you were dead" weren't available, Grand Unification is the debut album of this fresh new band, the songs are a mix of emotions, and frustrations, with slow and hard songs in the mix, Charlie has made a brilliant move by goin forward with Fightstar, they deliver quality music, and are a force to be reckoned with in 2006, favorite songs are all of them, keep the music up Fightstar

$9.89 
Bananarama followed up their hit-laden True Confessions, which spawned their international chart-topping version of "Venus," with 1987's Wow! True Confessions witnessed the emerging role of Stock, Aitken & Waterman as the trio's producers -- Wow! was wholly assembled by the hitmaking team, which was also responsible for hits by Rick Astley, Kylie Minogue, Dead or Alive, Donna Summer, and countless others. This album is, therefore, a straightforward 1980s dance set, with several songs that went on to become international hits. The only track from this set ...

Bananarama's first album is by far their best. Before they fell in with the lucrative but often boring Stock, Aitken & Waterman assembly line starting with 1986's True Confessions, Siobhan Fahey, Sarah Dallin, and Keren Woodward were unashamedly poppy, but they had enough artistic credibility to create a debut album that, barring a couple of small ...

| | Bryan Kelley Charming The Gods CD (1998)
Grand Unification album
$14.79
Charming the Gods, the debut album from Santa Monica-based Brian Kelley, combines earnest strumming with equally earnest lyrics for a result that is sometimes touching and emotive, and other times syrupy and derivative. The bluesy "Angels" sounds like a shrine built to Eric Clapton, while the next track, "She Crawls" adds a metal edge to Kelley's folky wail -- the song is one of the most heavily produced on the album and is the furthest from his usual acoustic style, but it is smoothly executed and actually works well. The album was almost entirely recorded outside of the studio -- mostly in Kelley's apartment and the background noise (baseball games on the radio, children playing on the street) is charming at first but intrusive by the end, especially on the quieter songs. There is a thread of spirituality that runs throughout which helps ground the world-weary sensitivity --a quality that sometimes sounds a little precious coming from someone so young (the jacket art makes Kelley look not a day over 30). Overall, this seems to be a deeply personal record that employs some interesting musical textures to support occasionally brilliant songwriting. ~ Stacia Proefrock
Bryan Kelley cut his musical teeth on the ukulele at the age of four, while living in the Philippines. By thirteen, he'd moved to guitar and Seattle. Growing up in several Northwest bands over the next few years he emerged as a singer/ songwriter in Los Angeles, a new voice in the best tradition - an edgy poet-musician,musically rooted in folk and modern rock.Bryan's debut album "Charming the Gods ", is a ten song tapestry of modern folk-rock - edgy, with traditional elements (acoustic guitar, fiddle, squeezebox, mandolin, etc.) woven throughout. From the angry gait of the featured song "She Crawls " to the fresh optimism of "Angels," the album charts a wide range of raw emotion. The title track is a beautiful ...
| | Janis Joplin Pearl: Legacy Edition CDs (1971) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Special Edition; Digipak
Grand Unification CD music
$15.99
Janis Joplin's PEARL, from 1971, is a bluesy, organ-drenched benediction for the flower-child sound of the free-and-easy 60's. It is also one of great singer's most consistent and representative efforts. Gone are the ear-shattering sonics of Big Brother and the Holding Company, and Full Tilt Boogie, the backing band here, steps in to offer a degree of polish and control that frames Joplin's vocals nicely. Yet the band still grooves hard with the fierceness her voice demands. Guitarist John Till's riffs, chords, and solos, in particular, are exciting and tightly executed.
"A Woman Left Lonely" and Bobby Womack's "Trust Me" are rain-on-the-windows ballads that come alive with Joplin's gritty vocal brilliance, while the burbling "Move Over" and "Half Moon" are among her funkiest, most driving cuts. The dramatic "Cry Baby" is offset by the tongue-in-cheek a cappella number "Mercedes Benz," while Joplin's version of Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee" went on to become her signature song. Joplin died during the sessions for PEARL, making these tracks the final word on her towering talent and a superb addition to her enduring legacy.
After the live Cheap Thrills, Pearl is undeniably Janis Joplin's studio classic, and her final recording, released posthumously. She departed the earth at the very top of her game creatively. The album was recorded with a less-is-more approach -- the explosive horn section so prevalent on Kozmic Blues was replaced by a rootsier, more organic studio group called the Full Tilt Boogie Band, with precious few guests in a minimal number of places. The album cooks from the opener, "Move Over," with John Till's jagged, knife-edge guitar playing the lyric line in duet with Joplin and Ken Pearson's choogling Hammond B-3 stomping on the chorus and the bridge. The emotional intensity actually gets upped on "Cry Baby," where Pearson's organ drives the track, raucously and passionately augmented by Till and Richard Bell's soul cum honky tonk piano. The thing is, the album just doesn't quit from "A Woman Left Lonely" to "Buried Alive in the Blues" to "My Baby" and the closer, "Get It While You Can." The fact that Pearl's most famous cuts, "Me and Bobby McGee" and "Mercedes Benz," are both here as well and were issued as the album's singles is simply astonishing given they are far form its strongest cuts. On the double-disc Legacy Edition of Pearl, some changes were made from earlier CD versions of the album. For starters, the bonus live tracks included on the 1999 version have been relegated to disc two. In their place, six cuts have been added, including three cuts taken from the Love, Janis box set: the demo of "Me and Bobby McGee," an alternate of "Cry Baby," and "Happy Birthday John (Happy Trails)." But there's more: three unissued alternate takes of "Move Over," "My Baby," and Full Tilt Boogie's instrumental tribute to Joplin called "Pearl." Disc two contains 13 live cuts taken from ...
