 (17 Customer Reviews)
The Aaron Carter of Nashville country, Billy Gilman had a fairly successful career as an adolescent country singer, the biggest since at least Tanya Tucker, if not Brenda Lee. This self-titled album, released just as the singer turned 18, is a clear attempt to reintroduce Gilman as an adult singer, without the novelty quality of his early hits or the Christian rock approach of his more recent albums. Gilman finds his adult voice here, as well as a new facility for romantic ballads that serves him well, making this reintroduction a welcome one.
Personnel: Billy Gilman; Chris Leuzinger, Jerry "JT" Corenflos, Fletcher "Biff" Watson, Larry Beaird (guitar); Bruce Bouton (pedal steel guitar, dobro); Larry Franklin (fiddle); Jimmy Nichols (keyboards); Joe Chemay (bass guitar); Paul Leim (drums); Eric Darken (percussion).
Additional personnel: Pam Tillis.

 Billy is BACK TO COUNTRY!
I still say he never left, but this CD is proof that Billy Gilman is country! Each song has a bit of an older country feel to it. "Billy the Kid" is the first track on the CD, and it's perfect to start it off. It says, "I'm Billy the Kid, and I'm back. You can't shoot down the Billy the Kid." He's 18 now, but still known as the little 11-year-old boy who sang "One Voice", but this CD will definitely help people to realize that he's 18 now. There's a great mix of upbeat songs and ballads. Billy Gilman is back!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No The best CD he has come out with!! Amazing!!!
think it says something about an album when I've heard it 16 hours in a day. Billy has always been excellent, but this album surpasses anything he has ever done, and I enjoy each and every song. I never liked country until I heard him for the first time, and ever since then I have evry CD that he has come out with. For non-believers listen to the CD "Dare to Dream" and do exactly what it says dare to dream. You'll be hooked the minute you listen to it.

| | Trick Pony R.I.D.E. CD (2005)
Billy Gilman
 $7.29 
R.I.D.E., the title of Trick Pony's third album, stands for "Rebellious Individuals Delivering Entertainment." Of course, in 2000's Nashville, rebelling could often mean playing straight-up old-school country while not taking oneself too seriously, two pursuits at which Trick Pony excels. A slice of good-time barroom country rock, R.I.D.E. manages to sound staunchly traditional while never sticking too close to a formula. Primary lead vocalist Heidi Newfield comes off like a bawdy mix of Tanya Tucker, Loretta Lynn, and Mae West, delivering the pure honky-tonk of "Ain't Wastin' Good Whiskey On You" and the tears-in-your-beer emotion of "When I Fall" with equal panache. It's guitarist Keith Burns, however, who delivers the record's most accessible song with "Sad City," which features a guest vocal from Hootie & The Blowfish's Darius Rucker. A mix of sawdust, sweat, and jumbotron-ready party spirit, this R.I.D.E. is guaranteed to be a wild one.

| | Billy Gilman Everything & More CD (2005)
Billy Gilman
$13.35 
Five years after his debut, One Voice, Billy Gilman returned with his third, Everything and More. If only things were quite that simple. Gilman released his first album when he was 12 and it was a hit primarily because there was an audience eager to hear a child sing earnestly about wishing for love and peace in this world, and that was enough to make him a novelty hit for a few years. Considering the cultural climate of the W years, when family values and safe, slick entertainment were at a premium, it would have seemed like Gilman could have stayed near the top of the charts for the rest of the decade. But that's not taking the tiny matter of puberty into account. Not long after he had his second album, the voice changed and his label bailed, leaving him to struggle for a couple of years before he re-emerged on a new label, Imagine, with Everything and More, a collection of positive, polished adult contemporary pop with a Christian bent. Frankly, it's easy to see why his old label abandoned him: while he's not a bad singer, he's an awkward adolescent possessed with considerably less charm than he did when he was a kid. Other than that, not much has changed in Gilman's world -- he still favors supersweet, sentimental songs about love, faith, and positivity, all delivered in a blandly melodic, inoffensive fashion. It's enough to please the fans who waited a long time for a new Gilman record, but as he reaches adulthood, Billy ...

Billy Gilman
$14.45
Acclaimed actor Liev Schrieber (DAYTRIPPERS, THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE) makes his directorial debut in this adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer's bestselling novel about a young Jewish-American writer of the same name. Mixing equal parts black comedy and poignant drama, the film follows Jonathan (Elijah Wood) as he travels to the Ukraine to solve a family secret. There he meets his barely legitimate tour guides: Alex (Eugene Hutz, member of the folk-punk band Gogol Bordello), a cosmopolitan playboy obsessed with Michael Jackson and other American icons; Alex's grandfather (Boris Leskin), a man worn down by life who seems to be losing his grip on reality; and Sammy Davis, Jr. Jr, the "seeing-eye bitch" dog who comes along for the ride. As Jonathan closes in on his goal--to find the story behind the woman who saved his grandfather during the Holocaust--it becomes clear that Alex's grandfather has a dark secret of his own that needs to be, as the film suggests, illuminated.

Billy Gilman
$14.55
STEAM POWERED AEREO-TAKES contains tracks recorded in 1971 during the sessions for AEREO-PLAIN.
With its feet in the most traditional of American folk music and its head peeking through a cloud of psychedelic hippie smoke, John Hartford's 1971 LP, Aereo-Plain, was groundbreaking in its ability to sound earnestly faithful to the music it was rooted in, while still twisting words and poking fun in a way that was definitely hip for the time. The informal jam session feel of the recordings created some 80-odd reels of tape that couldn't all fit onto the LP, so in early 2002 Rounder Records' impeccable Select division released Steam Powered Aereo-Takes, featuring nearly an hour of song sketches, outtakes, demos, impromptu jams, and goofing-off suites. All the members of the assembled team -- including Hartford on guitar, banjo, and vocals, Norman Blake on guitar and mandolin, Tut Taylor on dobro, mandolin, and mandola, Vassar Clements on fiddle and mandocello, ...

This fun and energetic recording is finally available again after too many moons out of print. Recorded in Austin and Portland, the musicians who made this music put hearts and fingers together with the songs. Plenty of it recorded live, and a fine time was had by all. This album also features two different tracks with two fine musicians who have since passed away and amazingly, passed on the same day. Here's to Skip Battin and Marty Jennings.The story beads weave this tale for you to listen in with, to grow and to sing along with; to share with ones who are close. There is a puzzle of the twin paradigms within and once discerned, there is no returning to the time before even as it keeps changing with each listening.We begin the fieldtrip In the Valley, with Marjorie and The Dream pressed between ranges of mountains and hills where life is lush like colourful flowers between heavy pages and the river runs through and the growing season is long before the pyramids were even built. We meet the Little Raccoon and Crow who tell us a story to chew on for the day and to remind us of our connection with all the many tribes of beings. In the silence of sky and land far from city, we contemplate a small word. We remember those who have gone before us as we hear of our good brother who has changed form beyond this and, in our grieving heart, we hear the one true calm still voice reminding us why we've come and how to carry stillness within even back to the contradiction and confusion of cantankerous urgentbusy emerging urbanity.That returns us to the Uh-oh Decadedance of business and commerce media and conspicuous-in-consumption and its subsequent by-product: waste; that we learn to bring the gift of stillness to chaos so something like silence might one day emerge in perfect clarity. That takes us back to the neighbourhood of Box-of-Maple-Avenue looking at a day that holds our life times there. There, we meet Alberto Campesino and splash in Purple Glowbeeza and see how everybody's neighbourhood is who they really are.It becomes necessary at that point to ponder wordlessly into Izara and that takes us walking along the surgemerging winding river. Even though we have lived and worked and pounded our clothes beside the river for years, it really is never the same river twice and there is always something new to learn and hear. In the ...
| | Jake Roche Just Survivin' CD (2007)
Billy Gilman
$10.15
Hailed as a breath of fresh air in the folk genre by Lonesome Music's Americana/Folk blog, New England native Jake Roche reminds listeners of the folk and experimental rock traditions of the 1960's transported by new influences and production to be completely contemporary and relevant in our time. His command of lyrical poeticism, vocal harmony, and instrumental arranging ensure his place among the upper echelon of singer/songwriters. His distinct voice is at once artful and slightly dissonant while passionate and painfully vulnerable.Jake Roche was a member of the Universal Republic recording act Jeremiah Freed. Signed right out of high school, Jeremiah Freed toured the country opening for Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers, Nickelback, The Strokes, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and countless others. Jeremiah Freed's single "Again" reached #36 on Billboard Mainstream Rock charts. Their self-titled release met widespread critical acclaim.Jake parted ways with Jeremiah Freed in the spring of 2004 to pursue a solo venture. He re-discovered the folk music he grew up admiring, in part inspired by the musical sharing of his grandmother, a teacher of piano for nearly twenty-five years. His ...
