Q (3/01, p.112) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...An album devoted entirely to his love of good wine....Most of the highly literate lyrics use wine as a metaphor...while the album's general mix of gentle melodies with mellow acoustic and electric guitars gradually makes its mark."

Al Stewart's third album wasn't much different from the territory he had claimed, with reasonable success, on his prior effort, Love Chronicles. Narrative tales of romance and experience, sometimes third-person and sometimes autobiographical, set the mood, complemented by mild folk-rock arrangements and Stewart's warm yet bemused voice. A few placid folk guitar instrumentals break up the involved, ...

Although the orchestrations have been criticised as over-elaborate, there is no denying their impact on the title track and songs like "Swiss Cottage Manoeuvres" and "Scandinavian Girl" manage to shine through. Also of interest are the delicate instrumental "Denise at 16," the Procol Harum-like "Beleeka Doodle Day," and "The Carmichaels," an account of a loveless marriage that looks ahead both lyrically and stylistically to his next album. Perhaps the highlight is "Samuel, Oh How You've Changed," ...

The 18-minute title track, a chronicle of amorous exploits, attracted attention for including the word "fucking" (then taboo in pop songs) as well as alluding to impotence. The five shorter songs are uniformly excellent, from "In Brooklyn," the account of Al's first visit to New York, to the grim Soho tale "Old Compton Street Blues," and the wry "You Should Have Listened to Al." Particularly ...

"Here In Angola," "Pandora," and "Indian Summer" were originally released on the LP INDIAN SUMMER.
24 CARROTS is folk-rocker Al Stewart's 1980 album, recorded with Shot in the Dark. This reissue features five bonus tracks, "Here in Angola", "Indian Summer", "Pandora", "Delia's Gone", and "Princess Olivia".
The pun of the title of 24 Carrots -- the first overt signal of humor Al Stewart has displayed in years, possibly ever -- illustrates that a lot has changed since 1978's Time Passages. The loosening of his wit is perhaps the most evident, but the most significant is the departure of producer Alan Parsons, who collaborated with Stewart on his mid-'70s triptych of masterpieces. In truth, 24 Carrots isn't far removed from those high points, because he is indeed still writing at a remarkably consistent pace. No, this record isn't quite at the high standard of the previous three albums, but it does have a number of brilliant moments, from the opening "Running Man" through the silly but effective "Mondo Sinistro" and the gorgeous "Midnight Rocks." Though there are some songs that don't quite click (something that did not happen on the aforementioned trio), overall the record coheres nicely, thanks not just to the uniform classiness of Stewart's songs, but to his production with Chris Desmond. Although the production does hint at the antiseptic cleanliness that sank many of his latter-day recordings, ...

Down In The Cellar music CDs
$16.79
Founded in 1953 by brothers Hy and Sam Weiss, Old Town Records remains one of the premier record labels of the early rock& roll era -- with a sprawling catalog spanning the breadth of pop, R&B and blues, the company remains best known for its rich, deep stable of doo wop artists, generating a series of classic hits including the Capris' "There's a Moon Out Tonight," the Fiestas' "So Fine" and the Earls' "Remember Then." Five volumes in, and the Ace label series Old Town Doo Wop shows few signs of slowing down -- thanks to Hy Weiss' penchant for all-night sessions yielding dozens of songs, the label's archives are an embarrassment of riches, and even if few of these songs made a dent at radio, they boast a remarkable vitality and fiercely idiosyncratic spirit, galvanized by a dynamic studio band led by the unsung saxophonist Buddy Lucas. Highlights include the Intruders' ...

Down In The Cellar music CDs
$9.35
Recorded between February 25, 1957 and October 21, 1958. Includes liner notes by Joseph Laredo.
Digitally remastered by Erick Labson (MCA Music Media Studios, North Hollywood, California).
This is part of MCA's 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection series.
Buddy Holly's achievements and influence are immeasurable. He is a seminal singer-songwriter, a father of rock and roll, a brilliant pop innovator, and the first alt-geek-rock icon. Though squeezed out in a mere three years before Holly's death at the age of 22, nearly the entire output of Holly and his backing trio, The Crickets, is worthwhile. It is therefore no surprise that this BEST OF collection is wonderful from beginning to end.
Every one of these twelve songs is hit single material, including "That'll Be The Day," "Words of Love," "Peggy Sue," "Oh Boy!," and "It's So Easy." ...
