| | Colin Johnson Then & Now CD Colin Johnson Discography of CDs
Colin Johnson was born in Trench Town, Kingston, Jamaica W.I. He lived on Second Street along with Bob Marley, Bunny Wailers and Delroy Wilson. They grew up together along with many other singers. This would include artists such as Peter Tosh, Joe Higgs, Alton Ellis, Winston "pipe" Matthews and Lloyd "bread" McDonald of the Wailing Soul. They would sing because music brought and continues to bring peace to their soul. At an early age, Colin was an original member of the singing group known as the "School Boys." They recorded many songs on both the Prince Buster Label and Coxon Downbeat. Colin migrated to America in the late sixties and in the seventies he restarted his singing career. In nineteen seventy five he wrote a song "Festival Greetings" that came second in the New York Reggae Festival. He has completed many recordings and is constantly trying to be heard. Well, I happen to be a fan of his music and I will say this without any apology, not since Bob Marley have I heard a songwriter from Jamaica with such insight; just listen to songs like Downsizing, World Terrorism, Loving You, Freedom, Marching and Singing, Forrest Gump, and his latest recording "I Cried" then you will see that he is another real deal from Trench Town, Kingston, Jamaica.By J.

Purchase Then & Now CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Pink Martini Splendor In The Grass CD (2009) Digipak
Then & Now
 $13.39   
Pink Martini follow the around-the-world-in-a-dozen-songs thrills of HEY EUGENE! with SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, a mellower, simpler set of small pleasures. These are relative terms, however; the group's music is still well-traveled, with China Forbes singing in five languages (English, Spanish, Neapolitan, French, and Italian) instead of the six or so on EUGENE!. However, Pink Martini opt for a more unified sound here, one that draws on the more straightforward lounge-pop of their debut, SYMPATHIQUE, and the mellowness of '60s and '70s pop. SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS' first half is especially ...

| | Shuggie Otis Inspiration Information CD (1974)
Then & Now
$10.89
This is part of LuakaBop's World Psychedelic Classics series.
Ignored upon its release in 1974 and celebrated upon its reissue in 2001, Shuggie Otis' fourth and last album Inspiration Information exists out of time -- a record that was of its time, but didn't belong of it; a record that was idiosyncratic but not necessarily visionary. It was psychedelic soul that was released far too late to be part of any zeitgeist and it was buried at the time. Yet no matter what Luaka Bop's grand poobah David Byrne claims on the sticker -- he says Shuggie's "trippy R&B jams are equal to Marvin's and Curtis', but somehow more contemporary sounding...closer to D'Angelo meets DJ Shadow" -- this isn't revolutionary. It can occasionally sound modern, such as on the rolling head trip "XL-30," but only because it's the kind of groove Shadow would sample ...
