| | Ryan Francesconi Eleven Continents CD Ryan Francesconi Discography of CDs
Blending acoustic arrangements alongside subtle introspective vocals, Eleven Continents is the first offering from multi-instrumentalist Ryan Francesconi (RF) and vocalist Lili De La Mora. In the spirit of collaboration, both decided to invite a few friends to contribute to the record. The addition of Familiar Trees' vocalist Fabiola Sanchez adds a warmth and conversational aspect to the lyrics, while Joanna Newsom's harp adds a resonance to Francesconi's arrangements of cello, viola, winds and subtle percussion. While the arrangements and textures are reminiscent of his releases under the RF moniker, much of the electronic aspect of his other music has been replaced by the breathy tone and sincerity of Lili De La Mora's lyrics. Ryan and Lili teamed up with Lili's long time producer Ken Negrete of Time Release Records to help shape the sound and co-produce the record with Ryan. Rowing At Sea. 2007.

Purchase Eleven Continents CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Tom Petty Live Anthology CDs (2009)
Eleven Continents album
 $19.98  
It's a commonly held opinion among fans and band alike that Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' lone live album, 1986's Pack Up the Plantation, didn't quite capture the group at its peak, so there has been a long-standing need for another live set, which 2009's Live Anthology finally provides. Like its closest cousin, Bruce Springsteen's Live 1975-1985, Live Anthology almost overcompensates for the long wait by offering almost too much music, cherrypicking highlights from 1978 to 2007. In its simplest incarnation, Live Anthology is a super-affordable, four-disc box set running 48 tracks, which is eight cuts longer than Springsteen's box, plenty long enough for most fans, but in its deluxe version, available only through Best Buy, there's an additional CD, plus two previously unreleased DVDs -- a 1978 ...
| | John Mayer Battle Studies CD (2009)
Eleven Continents CD music
$11.17   
It's no secret that John Mayer is a 21st Century Fox, wining and dining women all through tabloid headlines, so it's about time he delivered an album that traded upon his loverman persona -- and Battle Studies is that record in spades. Retaining more than a modicum of the slick, soul-blues undertones of Continuum, Mayer fashions a modern groove album, a record that maintains a smooth seductive vibe so thoroughly it spills into a one-man band cover of "Crossroads." Mayer remains somewhat of a disciple of Slowhand, but he shows an unusual interest in the big AOR stylings of Journeyman, along with Stevie Ray Vaughan's In Step, creating a coolly clean blend of synths and Strats, one that's as much about texture as it is about song.something perfectly appropriate for a make-out album like this. Sometimes, Mayer ...

Eleven Continents CD music
$9.99
I AM. SASHA FIERCE represents another change of pace for Beyoncé. Unlike the relatively streamlined, retro-soul inflected B'DAY, I AM... is a sprawling two-disc set designed to reflect two conflicting sides of Beyoncé's musical personality. The first disc sports reflective, sometimes moody ballads, while the second, attributed to Beyoncé's brash alter ego, Sasha Fierce, is loaded with propulsive dance-floor fillers. Except for this stylistic divide, I AM. pays only nominal attention to its supposed concept, focusing instead on a set of excellent, radio-ready songs--neatly avoiding the possibility of I AM. becoming some sort of Chris Gaines-style conceptual disaster. Though the second disc, ...

| | Ghostface Killah Big Doe Rehab CD (2007) Edited
Eleven Continents CD music
$12.65
On the heels of two exceptional albums in 2006 (FISHSCALE and MORE FISH), Ghostface Killah continued his hot streak on his third major-label LP in two years, THE BIG DOE REHAB. Coming with a fresh batch of wicked wordplay and dizzying stream-of-consciousness lyrics on cinematic hood vignettes ("Yolanda's House," "Rec-Room Therapy"), violent do-or-die tales ("Walk Around," "Yapp City"), and comically surreal award-show scenarios ("White Linen Affair (Toney Awards)"), Pretty Tony sounds as distinct as ever.
Stylistically, BIG DOE REHAB borrows from the old school, as Ghost revisits one of Redman's most memorable shticks on "Supa GFK" and lifts a classic EPMD beat on "Killa Lipstick." More centralized on the production side than either "Fish" album, the majority of the record's beats are provided by the Diddy-affiliated production duo of LV and Sean C, while supplemental production work comes courtesy of Ant-Live, Scram Jones, Anthony Acid, Frequency, Baby Grand, and Ghost himself. Featuring ample guest spots that represent both the Wu (Raekwon, Method Man, U-God, Master Killa, Cappadonna) and the Theodore Unit (Trife Da God, Shawn Wigs, Sun God), BIG DOE REHAB is another exemplary piece of gutter hip-hop from one of New York's most original and inventive rhyme-stylists.
In 2006, Ghostface Killah released Fishscale, an intricate, exciting album that was voted -- and rightfully so -- as one of the best records of the year. It was the kind of thing that showed why Ghost is so beloved by critics and fans: his rhymes were wildly detailed and inventive, his stories were vivid, and his beats (most courtesy of MF Doom, but also with contributions from Pete Rock and Dilla, among others) were fresh-sounding and interesting, only working to improve the MC's verses by way of their own strength. And while these attributes occasionally surface on The Big Doe Rehab, overall the record lacks the excitement, the originality, and the passion that can and has made Ghostface so compelling. A lot of this, for better or for worse, can be blamed on the production. The Diddy-associated Hitmen (here Sean C. and LV), who also worked on Jay-Z's latest effort and are the composers of five of the tracks on Big Doe, make passable but not extraordinary beats, ...
