| | Fionn Regan End Of History CD Fionn Regan Discography of CDs
The Irish singer songwriter Fionn Regan's debut album is a slow-burning collection of deeply personal songs that initially sound fragile, but whose imagery has a steely, almost surgical precision. Armed with only a voice and acoustic guitar on most tracks, Regan creates an intimate world paradoxically open to all, with songs like "Put a Penny in the Slot" describing a love story's failing trajectory, and "Blackwater Child," which has a simple, subtly gorgeous arrangement, summoning shades of Nick Drake, Donovan, and the ancient songs of their countless anonymous forebears.
Personnel: Fionn Regan (background vocals); Anna Phoebe (violin); Lucy (viola); Oli (cello); Louis Vause (piano); Karl Odlum (bass guitar); Jamie Morrison (drums); Laura Murphy (background vocals).
Rolling Stone (p.84) - "[A]s loud as a heartbeat in an empty room, reverberating with the firm, fluid confrontation of his bright-whisper vocals..." Fionn Regan End Of History Songs End Of History Review

Among the legendary singer-songwriters of the 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene, the late Karen Dalton was the interpreter and song-stylist of choice (in fact, Dylan himself rated Dalton as his favorite of the bunch). While she never achieved the kind of fame that her cohorts did, her influence was widely felt. One can hear her throaty, slow-burning take on country-blues singing in the voices of Lucinda Williams and other female ...

End Of History album
$12.49
Neal Fox is an award-winning composer/playwright who has written for every medium from TV to theatre. His one-man multimedia show, Pigeonholes, received standing ovations from audiences in San Diego and Hollywood. This September (2007), Fox will premier his new one-man show, Thank You, Dan Rather, in Ft. Lauderdale.As for Hotel del Swell, it was produced right after Fox finished his first musical, Meat Street—a dark comedy about planet Earth—when he wanted something lighter. Hotel is a departure from his usual work because it’s mainly instrumental, and he’s known for his skills as a lyricist and preference for social commentary.For the softer sounds of this CD, Fox used piano, guitar and synths, and invited his talented friend, John Rekevics, to add the sax parts.In Hotel del Swell Fox gives you a musical peek behind closed doors of a once-swank establishment. Each room holds its memories, each occupant has a story. Find a cushy chair, sip a glass of wine, and enjoy.Kitchen Help—It’s a regular party in here.(Here in the kitchen, ev’rything is bitchin)Dirty WaterTake your orderSprig o’ parsley sits above itShine those dishesClean those fishesTake the trash outGod, I love it!Don’t need no business cardsDon’t need no resuméNo college education is requiredIn the kitchen all your troubles seem to melt awayAnd it’s never too hot for the good life that we got.Chef’s a masterI get plasteredSee those rich ladies stuff their facesSpecial dishesSpecial wishesI can take them to special placesWhere the grease is flyingAnd the Champagne’s flowingAnd the pots and pans beat rhythm like no otherIt’s a symphony of sweet ‘n’ sourGetting sweeter by the hourNever too hot for the good life that we got.We’re the players in someHalf forgotten, half-baked playStill, we’re the ones who get to light your fireIt’s a mystical experience, that’s what they sayAnd it’s never too hot for the good life that we got.Bridal Suite—Love, romance, and the anticipation of a new life togetherDon’t Wake Me Up—You’ve been traveling all day and can’t wait to hit the pillow.

| | Sandra Phillips Swamp Dogg's Southern Soul Girls CD (2007) England
End Of History album
$14.79
It's a bit of a stretch to categorize this as a various-artists compilation, since it only includes the work of two performers, Sandra Phillips and Bette Williams. Indeed, it's almost something of an expanded CD version of Phillips' sole LP, since songs from that album comprise 12 of this disc's 21 tracks, most of the rest being devoted to cuts from early-'70s Williams singles. Still, it is a way for deep Southern soul fans -- and more particularly fans of Swamp Dogg, who produced the records and wrote or co-wrote virtually all of the material -- to collect these rare recordings in one place. Though Sandra Phillips was a decent soul singer, her sole LP, 1970's Too Many People in One Bed, is as notable for the contributions of Swamp Dogg as it is for Phillips herself. Swamp Dogg was reserving his more unusual and distinctive compositions and arrangements for his own releases, but this is still a fairly strong Southern soul record, if a little modestly so. As the title implies, some of the tunes are more forthright about squabbles over romantic partners than was the norm in soul and pop music at the beginning of the '70s, especially on "To the Other Woman (I'm the Other Woman)" (a song more renowned to soul fans in the version sung by Doris Duke). Phillips might have missed out on a potential hit on what's apparently the original version of "She Didn't Know (She Kept on Talking)," which Dee Dee Warwick had a Top Ten R&B hit with in 1970. The more risqué elements of the lyrics aren't too obvious without paying close attention, however, and some of the songs are pretty typical, straightforward, energetic, period soul numbers. Phillips has a clear, strong voice, and the production ...
