Recorded during Steeleye Span Mark II's early days, Summer Solstice -- the most advanced of the three albums that they recorded together early in their careers -- has a very different feel from the Steeleye work of the era. Tim Hart (vocals, guitar, dulcimer, harmonium, psaltery, tabor) and Maddy Prior (vocals) are working with Sweeney's Men (whence Steeleye Mark I's Terry Woods came) alumnus Andy Irvine and Steeleye Mark I guest drummer Gerry Conway. The sound is mostly fairly spare, just Hart and Prior backed by Irvine on mandolin, John Ryan on string bass, Pat Donaldson on electric bass, and Conway on percussion. The only exception is "Dancing at Whitsun," which features a very tasteful backing orchestral arrangement. Hart and Prior do a version of "False Knight on the Road" that's very different in pacing and nuance from Steeleye's, and a beautiful, droning rendition of "Bring Us in Good Ale." Their voices mesh wonderfully on "Sorry the Day I Was Married," and Prior gets a chance to shine as a solo on "Westron Wynde," "Fly Up My Cock," and the two most Steeleye-like track here, "Cannily, Cannily" and "Three Drunken Maidens." ~ Bruce Eder

Shakira's brand new English album She Wolf is an uptempo pop album. It is all about synthesizers and electronic concepts, all mixed with the world sounds that we are used to from Shakira.. sounds from countries like India, the Middle East and her home country of Colombia. She Wolf features a predominantly English track list with a follow up album of new and unique repertoire in Spanish to come in 2010. The title track "She-Wolf " boasts the infectious and energizing sound that made Shakira a household name, with a slightly more dancey/ electronic beat (about 125 beats per minute). Though most tracks on the upcoming album will be in English, Shakira chose to service the Spanish version of the first single, "Loba", two weeks before the English single is launched.
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 ...

He won the 1981 National Fingerpicking Guitar Competition and the 1982 International Autoharp Contest.

| | Vector Sigma Key, Vol. 1 CD (2003)
Summer Solstice album
$14.79
Vector Sigma:His inner ear is constructed of Chicago sewer caps, inner city plumbing, and rat holes with the ability to arrange both dark beats like the soundtrack to a homicide, melodies to ease a broken heart, or plain old radio-rockin block-hoppin heart-beat stopping tracks.Used to go by the name "Mimic" because of his ability to mimic tracks in the similar style of any producer around.Born over 2 decades ago with a light sensitive eye condition, he hates the fact that people mistake his prescription tinted glasses as an "ego thing."Yet meditations and knowledge of the Astral Planes of God have enabled Sigma to walk the fine line between true humbleness and false ego.Born and raised in the bad parts of Chicago, Sigma achieved a level of streets smarts, the art of talking, and knowing when to stay quiet.Yet being hassled by kids over his mysterious mix of nationalities, he surrounded himself with the people who were doing things at an early age.The Key is to blend in to the streets like a chameleon and then you see things happen.The ...
