 (3 Customer Reviews)
In a witty and energetic updating of mid-20th century vocal groups such as the Andrews Sisters, the U.K. trio the Puppini Sisters perform close-harmony swing-style backdates of contemporary pop songs, such as their Italian wedding reading of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" and a slinky version of Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights." Also featured are 1940s and '50s pop classics such as their a cappella "In the Mood" and the Andrews Sisters' own "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B."
The Puppini Sisters: Stephanie O'Brien (harp); Marcella Puppini (accordion); Kate Mullins.
Personnel: Martin Kolarides (guitar); Pascale Gagnon, François Pilon (violin); Marie-Claire Cousineau (viola); André Leroux (clarinet); Roger Walls (bugle); Mohammed Abdul Al-Khabyyr (trombone); David Rand Martin (tuba); John Sadowy (piano); Andre Cayer (marimba); Alain Labrosse (percussion); Nicolas Letarte (unknown instrument); Nick Pini, Henry Tyler, Benoît Charest (background vocals).

Betcha Bottom Dollar
 $22.15 
Director Hugh Hudson's absorbing drama, based on a true story, deals with the personal struggles faced by two very different long-distance runners competing for Britain in the 1924 Paris Olympic Games. Eric Liddell (Ian Charleson) is a devout Christian who sees victory as a testament to the glory of God, while the other, Harold Abrahams (Ben Cross), is a Jewish Cambridge student who sees victory as a challenge to anti-Semitism and his ongoing struggle for acceptance by Britain's elite. Eric, a hometown Scottish hero to the people, gives rousing sermons after victory and works at a local missionary. Harold runs with a zealous commitment, upsetting Cambridge's educational upper crust (played with enjoyable wit and candor by Sir John Gielgud and Lindsay Anderson) while enjoying social life with his university chums and his beautiful showgirl girlfriend (Alice Krige). But when faced with such a competent challenger, Harold hires trainer Sam Mussabini (Ian Holm) ...
| | La Oreja De Van Gogh Lo Que Te Conte Mientras Te Hacias La Dormida CD (2003)
Betcha Bottom Dollar
 $10.09 
LO QUE TE CONTE MIENTRAS TE HACIAS LA DORMIDA was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album.
Although at first listen La Oreja de Van Gogh's third release might sound like a slick rehashing of the same pop formula that had brought the group consistent commercial success, Lo Que Te Conté Mientras Te Hacías la Dormida (What I Told You While You Pretended to Be Asleep) merits closer attention. Beyond some similarities to their earlier work -- nostalgic lyrics, ridiculously catchy choruses, and lead singer Amaia Montero's seemingly fragile delivery -- this album displays far greater emotional and musical range than do their earlier efforts. Montero and keyboard player Xabi San Martín continue to write most of the music, and guitar player Pablo Benegas most of the lyrics, but there are some notable exceptions, like album opener and first single "Puedes Contar Conmigo" (You Can Count on Me), written entirely by Montero. Here she abandons any former posturing as a helpless little girl and sings not about a fairy tale, but about love that's flawed and recognizable; when the final chorus slows, the spare outline of Montero's ...

| | Pink Martini Hey Eugene! CD (2007) Digipak
Betcha Bottom Dollar
$14.29  
A large-ish ensemble led by pianist Thomas Lauderdale and singer China Forbes, Pink Martini is maddeningly, wonderfully eclectic in a way that few other groups could hope to be. Drawing from Parisian pop, jazz, the European cabaret tradition, Latin rhythms, and pre-1960 Hollywood film soundtracks, all combined with urbanity and elan, this Martini will leave the listener both shaken and stirred. A fab bonus: Jimmy Scott, the legendary and unique jazz vocalist, appears on "Tea For Two."
Audio Mixer: Dave Friedlander.
Recording information: Kung Fu Bakery, Portland, OR (12/2005-12/2006).
Photographers: Amy Archer; Greg Calvo.
Pink Martini: Gavin Bondy (vocals, trumpet, background vocals); Phil Baker (guitar, acoustic guitar, baglama, bass instrument, upright ...

Betcha Bottom Dollar
$24.45
Barbra Streisand's status as one of the most successful singers of her generation is all the more remarkable not only because her popularity has been achieved in the face of a dominant musical trend -- rock & roll -- which she did not follow; but also because, despite an amazing singing voice that has enthralled practically anyone who has heard it, she has always used singing as a mere stepping stone to other careers, as a stage and film actress and as a film director. Love Songs includes 'Memory', 'You Don't Bring Me Flowers' and 'Way We Were'. Sony. 2004.
Having been a successful recording artist for nearly 20 years but finding it difficult to break through to the British market, Barbra Streisand was finally on a run of hit albums beginning with the soundtrack to A Star Is Born, which she shared with Kris Kristofferson, Greatest Hits, Vol. 2, and biggest of them all, the Barry Gibb produced Guilty. CBS decided to consolidate her position as the premier female MOR singer in the world and released ...
