| | Cure Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me CD - Import Cure Discography of CDs
Universal UK pressing features the same content as the Rhino/US version, though packaged in the standard Universal 'Deluxe Edition' slipcase. Two CD set compiled by Robert Smith and digitally remastered from the original master tapes. This album was originally released in 1987.
This hefty double album often sounds more like a compilation than a coherent whole, with musical ideas bouncing frantically back and forth. Nevertheless, in typical Cure style, KISS ME, KISS ME, KISS ME successfully combines catchy pop with bitter despair. Through 17 immensely sensual songs, Robert Smith is at his most poetic ("strange as angels, dancing in the deepest ocean, twisting in the water, you're just like a dream") and vitriolic ("get your fucking voice out of my head...I never wanted any of this, I wish you were dead"). The joyous pop of "Just Like Heaven" and "The Perfect Girl" still delights, and the frisson provided by "Shiver And Shake" reinforces the physical nature of this collection.
The Cure: Robert Smith (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Porl Thompson (guitar, saxophone, keyboards); Laurence Tolhurst (keyboards); Simon Gallup (bass guitar); Boris Williams (drums).
Uncut (p.102) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Glossy, even sexy, here the excesses of that decade finally caught up with Smith, which he twisted into stunning pop..."
Alternative Press (p.200) - "[With] the heartfelt 'Just Like Heaven,' one of the classic alt-rock singles of the 1980s."
Magnet (p.106) - "Smith pens the prettiest pop, unleashes seven minutes of sitar-driven stonerdom, uses accordions to punctuate Parisian travelogues, plays with psychedelic Hendrixian guitar textures and -- as always -- lets bassist Simon Gallup have all the best riffs and melodies."

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 nuttiness, how she laments that Matt Damon's not meant for her, and wishes her ex-lover ...

With this sparsely yet intricately arranged and fascinating collection by two of the world's greatest mandolin players, Adventure Music continued to live up to its name in the early 2000s as one of the world's top purveyors of world (with a special emphasis on Brazilian) music. Meeting when they were both artists in residence at a mandolin festival in Lunel, France, Mike Marshall and Hamilton de Holanda quickly overcame the obvious cultural and language barriers to realize a shared sense of musical and geographic boundary breaking. Well known for his work with David Grisman, Stéphane Grappelli and Béla Fleck, among others, Marshall taps magically into his bluegrass roots on spirited tracks like "Blackberry Blossom" and Fleck's "Big Country." Yet the real focus of this work is the fun he and de Holanda -- one of the leading figures of Brazilian instrumental music by the age of 30 -- create on brisk Brazilian pieces like the seductive and snappy opening track "Recita de Samba" and "Brejeiro," which blends melodic strumming with percussive tapping on the strings. Their lightning quick repartee and plucky energy on this song and de Holanda's bubbly composition "Pra Siempre" dare the eager listener to keep up. Amid the gleeful madness there are more reflective and heartfelt moments, like de Holanda's "Valsa Em Si," which add some mood variation. Marshall contributes two sweeping pieces of his own in the seven-minute plus epics "Egypt" and exotic (and slightly autobiographical) "Ham & Mike." The set includes a bonus DVD featuring live video footage of three of ...

Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me CD music
$12.55
Blue Square (think place between song and imagination, patch of sky viewed from solitary, incoming weather in the ear's snapshot, chink of ocean reflected in a nautical eye, found chip of cerulean china wedged in sand) is poet Peter Money's first spoken word CD. To call it "spoken word" isn't quite accurate, for Mike Sal's right-on music bolsters these previously published poems in transformative ways. The poems and compositions were living their separate lives until the two unlikely generations got together. The result is a sort of hip-hop-meets-post-Beat-Emo twelve track meditation, in a pulse often nearly danceable. 20 years ago Allen Ginsberg told Peter Money "sing it!"; now he is. Who knew thumbing bass and electronic loops could befriend a previously bookish poet. . . . Liner Notes to Blue Square, The Poetry Album of Selected Poems 1987—2003 by Peter MoneyWhen I first saw Mike Sal he was standing in a pond, by far the tallest creature in a class of new swimmers, looking like 1980's basketball star Larry Bird--and almost as out of place as a yellow taxi in the middle of a frozen lake at an ice fishing time. Holding his elbows, he was helping his friend Meggan (who would return from Morocco shortly after what became our collaboration on this project), teaching my young son and daughter at Sargent's Pond, Vermont. When I asked, I learned he was into music and had not long ago graduated from Hampshire College. (This told me a lot about him, even if it does not describe him much to you.) What I did not know then is ...
