| | Ravi African Kora: Journeys Of The Sunwalker CD Ravi Discography of CDs
A cross between the many strings and treble gentility of a Celtic harp and the drone strings and percussive quality of an African banjo, the kora is an instrument native to Western Africa. Ravi has long been one of the elusive instrument's masters, and AFRICAN KORA: JOURNEYS OF THE SUNWALKER finds him and his kora delicately enthralling on this disc's 14 tracks. Most are traditional, a handful were written by Ravi, but all of the songs on AFRICAN KORA reveal a decidedly complex, layered, and gorgeous alternative to stricter Western musical structures. A must for fans not only of world styles but of adventurous, impeccably played music as well.
Recorded at Orisha Studios, London, England in January 1999. Includes liner notes by Ravi.

Michael Buble's third major US release (including the mostly live COME FLY WITH ME) stays on message--this young Canadian loves the lush, swaying music of his parents' and grandparents' generations. Buble's albums, however, are much more than mere back-in-the-day exercises. The production and arranging of David Foster (Celine Dion, Josh Groban) is eclectic in a way that firmly places the tunes at the dawn of the 21st century, and, more importantly, Buble possesses the chops and sense of style to re-imagine the adult-contemporary vocal genre in a distinctive manner. In addition to standards by Gershwin and Porter, Buble embraces ...

Gabe Wright was born and raised in Lima, Ohio. He showed enthusiasm for music at a very early age but never seriously considered picking up the guitar. At the age of 13, a friend asked Gabe if he wanted to learn guitar and join his band. Gabe began to learn and play, and at the request of the drummer, joined the band as the sole guitarist. Months later, Gabe and the drummer, Ian Murphy, split from the group. The two began rehearsing in Gabe's basement, playing only Nirvana, Silverchair, and Offspring cover songs. The simple lineup was Ian on drums and Gabe on guitar/vocals. They honed their skills, playing together for a year. They gathered a collection of songs to play two gigs, which payed a $20 gift certificate and all the hamburgers they could eat. Somehow the two drifted musically apart, while still playing together in school bands. Later, Gabe joined a metal band for a short while before realizing that he couldn't form the band he wanted in Lima, Ohio. Gabe began writing original songs at the age of 16. He recorded two CD's of original music, each of which he played guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and sang the vocals. Gabe graduated from Lima Senior High School in 2000 at the age of 18, and then moved to Boston to begin attending Berklee College of Music. He majored in Songwriting and eventually formed a rock band called "The Militia," which consisted of Jon Francis on drums, Matt Diekman on bass, and Gabe on guitar/vocals; all Berklee students. The Militia played Gabe's original songs with the motto of "Bring Back the Rock!" Later Jon left the band and was replaced on drums by Gabe's friend and roommate, Kevin Diquisto, who was also a Berklee student. Gabe also joined a metal band as the lead guitarist and vocalist.The band was called "Shattered Existence" and was also made up of friends and roommates who were Berklee students. From January 2003 to March 2004, the militia and Shattered Existence played weekly across the northeast and into ...

Dead End packs the testosterone on Sex SellsBy Linda FullertonDead End's CD, Sex Sells on Manic D Records, is packed with testosterone. There is no doubt that these guys say what they mean, and mean what they say--no second-guessing here. The CD consists of two parts, Part I: Studio Daze featuring 5 original songs, and Part II: Radio Waves containing a series of radio interviews/appearances and re-mixes of some their originals and cover tunes. Arak Van Wolfe (co-producer) is on bass and lead vocals while Johnny Hot Rod provides the synth melodies and cyber ...
