Sunday 8PM / Reverance album
 $11.18   
With Adam Lambert, American Idol finally got a finalist who was completely, utterly contemporary, aware of what's hip in music and culture and aware of how music is made and consumed in 2009, never seeming to try to follow fads or set trends, just embodying the time. Mercifully, he came in second to Kris Allen, for if he came in first he may have had to tame his self-styled glamazon ways. A second place finish allowed Lambert to come out of the closet and indulge in his penchant for theater on his debut, For Your Entertainment -- which isn't quite the same thing as camp, for if Adam Lambert is anything, he's earnest about his dress-up, never winking at the audience because he doesn't think there's much funny about his glitter and mascara: that's just what pop stars are supposed to do. He's learned that by listening to his stacks of Queen and Bowie records, from watching old MTV videos on YouTube, from living in a present that always competes with ...

| | Alice Peacock Real Day CD (2000)
Sunday 8PM / Reverance music CDs
$16.45
Alice Peacock wisely opens her debut album with her strongest song, and it's a very strong song, indeed. "I Hear You Say" explores the Venus and Mars distinction between what men say to women and how women interpret it. "Every now and then you say something I understand," she begins, responding to a boyfriend's remarks, then goes on to offer a girlfriend's gloss: "And you will say that everything is gonna be okay/That you could never ask for more... I hear you say that you're easily impressed." The translation may be rough, but somewhere between what he says and what she hears, you can tell things aren't going to work out. "I Hear You Say" impresses because it has something fresh to say about love and the war between the sexes, the imperishable subject of pop music, and because Peacock delivers its lyrics with a conviction that doesn't miss their undercurrent of humor. The equally feisty "Get Your Own," which follows, starts out sounding like another, more exasperated breakup song, and it only gradually becomes apparent that the narrator is actually talking to a female friend who has overstayed her welcome. The one-two punch of these two powerful, individual songs can make the first-time listener to Real Day giddy with anticipation: Can the rest of the album be this good?
Well, no, but the other nine songs have their definite pleasures. Peacock is not quite the master of her material, sometimes overwriting (the pontifications of "Cracks and Daggers"), sometimes underwriting (in "My Love I Will," she never quite says what it is she will do), but in its mixture of songs about love fulfilled and love frustrated, she often finds unusual ways to describe old verities. It is striking that she can look at love from so many sides, warning away a prospective lover in "I'll Be the One" and sloughing off a dependable but unexciting one in "Something Else," only to turn around and sing "I Do," as cute a romantic pop song as anyone's ever written. Ranging from country-tinged folk-rock to stark piano or acoustic guitar accompaniment, she puts the emphasis on her romantic revelations, singing in a throaty, all-knowing voice.
Real Day is not a perfect debut album, but it's bursting with creativity and talent. Its flaws are those of a developing writer who sometimes overreaches but is always reaching in the right direction. There are several potential country hits here if anybody in Nashville is paying ...

| | Jimmy Bruno Midnight Blue CD (2001)
Sunday 8PM / Reverance album
$9.89
In something of a departure, guitarist Jimmy Bruno leaves straight bebop largely behind on this release, cultivating a more funk-oriented, electric sound instead. He is joined by the well-regarded fusion bassist Gerald Veasley, as well as pianist Dave Hartl (who doubles on Rhodes and Hammond organ), saxophonist Ron Kerber, and drummer Marc Dicciani. Bruno's intention was to get away from playing standards, although he opens with a retooled "Secret Love" and ends the session with "Perdido," "Stella by Starlight," and "Impressions." The bulk of the remaining material is written either by Bruno or Kerber, with Veasley contributing the straight-up funky "Philly Joe." Some of the music strongly recalls early George Benson ...
| | Jazz Sous L'Occupation: Under The Nazis CD (2003)
Sunday 8PM / Reverance CD music
$10.49
This album is one of several available collections focusing on the type of jazz that was created right under the noses of the Nazis during the second World War. Swing Tanzen Verboten! Swing in Belgium and France is a lengthy Proper Box collection that covers much of the same ground, although in much more detail. The subject is more than just engaging on several different levels. Purely musically speaking, there are many good things to be found in the sounds of groups such as the Orchestre Musette and Eddie Barclay, although listeners without the ears for the vintage years will no doubt toss around words such as "quaint" and "dated."
Why the German occupation was more lenient with crushing swing music in France and Belguim than in Germany is an interesting subject for speculation. Some gigs or recordings happened for one reason and others for another. Activity might purely be linked to a particular commanding officer or civil supervisor's secret and even not-so-secret ...
