| | Paul McCartney Memory Almost Full CD Paul McCartney Discography of CDs
(1 Customer Review)
The second disc of this best-selling, late-career album by former Beatle Paul McCartney features live footage of five McCartney classics, from a show at the Electric Ballroom in London, as well as two new videos for album tracks tracks "Dance Tonight" and "Ever Present Past."
The first release from the Starbucks-backed Hear Music label, 2007's MEMORY ALMOST FULL, is a significant point in Paul McCartney's long and legendary career. Not only does it mark the end of his decades-long relationship with Capitol Records, MEMORY is easily one of McCartney's most Beatlesque solo outings, a notion particularly reinforced by the album's ABBEY ROAD-styled closing suite.
Even before that dynamic medley, however, McCartney offers up some of his most vibrant songs in years--most notably the jangly opener, "Dance Tonight," and "Ever Present Past," a wonderfully catchy ode to memory--and these tracks contrast well with the largely subdued numbers on CHAOS AND CREATION IN THE BACKYARD. As with that preceding pop-oriented outing, Macca plays almost all instruments himself, although instead of working with producer Nigel Godrich again, he goes back to working with David Kahne for a more muscular, straight-ahead sound. By the time the upbeat "That Was Me" signals the record's closing sequence, it is abundantly clear that this is top-shelf McCartney, and listeners can almost hear a hearty round of applause as "Nod Your Head" brings MEMORY to its majestic end.

| | Ringo Starr Live At Soundstage CD (2007)
Memory Almost Full CD music
$14.15 Koch's 2007 release Live at Soundstage is a CD release of a show originally performed at Waukegan, IL's Genessee Theater in August 2005 and first broadcast that year as part of PBS' Soundstage program. It's not quite a complete representation of the concert -- it's a tight 14 tracks, trimmed of the songs Colin Hay sang with Ringo Starr's Roundheads band, so it just features the songs where Starr sang lead, a minor compromise that will likely only bother completists. It could be argued that completists may be the only audience interested in a latter-day live album from Starr, not because that's the only audience he attracts these days, but because there are so many live albums in his discography at this point -- a whopping six albums have been released since 1990, roughly one after the completion of every All-Starr Band tour -- that only those who listen to each and every one could bother finding the differences between them, as Starr rarely deviates from arrangements or set lists. Cynics may raise these concerns as they question the need for another live album, but Live at Soundstage ...
| | Photograph: The Very Best of Ringo Starr CD (2007) With DVD
Memory Almost Full music CDs
$20.55 Hard as it is to believe but there has not been a proper Ringo Starr hits collection since the first, 1975's Blast from Your Past -- that's not counting 1989's Starr Struck: Best of Ringo Starr, Vol. 2, which was designed as a companion to that earlier set -- until 2007's Photograph: The Very Best of Ringo Starr. Blast from Your Past was released just five years after his debut, Sentimental Journey, but it ignored that collection of pop standards, along with much of its country cousin Beaucoups of Blues, winding up as a collection of highlights of 1973's Ringo and 1974's Goodnight Vienna, with a few non-LP hit singles rounded up within the LP's tight ten-track, 30-minute span. Ringo kept recording after Blast, working his way through several labels and ill-advised phases before settling into a nice, easy groove with 1993's Time Takes Time, but he stopped having hits not long after 1975, after the Elton John/Bernie Taupin "Snookeroo" climbed all the way to number three, capping off a remarkable streak of seven Top Ten singles. After that, the crash was fast: "Oo-Wee" was pulled off of Vienna and stalled at 31, then ...

Memory Almost Full songs
$17.09 Sarah Pierce was born in Rockford, Illinois, the daughter of a cowboy raised in a family of cattlemen (4 members are in the Cattlemen's Hall of Fame) Sarah's dream was that of a singer ("From my earliest memories all I knew for sure was that I was born to sing."). Though she was not raised in a musical family, her mother enrolled her in piano lessons at age 5. "The piano inspired me to start writing and singing songs, she recalls." The search for her dream began in a most inauspicious way. She got kicked out of the 5th grade choir. "I sang like a boy - actually lower than the boys. My 5th grade music teacher just didn't know what to do with me." Being raised in rural Texas and Colorado, Sarah's dream was not taken seriously until she was 12 years old. Her stepfather was a small town doctor by day and played bass in the local country band on the weekends. One day he asked her to come along and sing a few songs. After one song, Sarah had a gig. "The stage is like a big comfortable couch; I am so at home there." After graduating from high school, Sarah decided to meet life on her terms and so she went off to college. She graduated with a master's degree in medical science from Emory University, in Atlanta, Georgia. After her residency, she moved to Denver, Colorado as a practicing physician's assistant. While there, she felt that she had been away from her music long enough; and after hearing about a serious music scene in Phoenix, Arizona, decided to move to the desert. "I was missing something crucial to my existence - my music." In the fall of that year, Sarah began finding the players that would become her band. By the following spring, "Sarah Pierce and the Healers" had been born. While performing at a local club, Sarah was seen by John McEuen - 20 years with The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - and was asked if she'd be willing to go on the road as his opening act. Thirteen weeks and thousands of miles later, Sarah had performed before tens of thousands of people, receiving standing ovations wherever she sang. Once back home, she quickly became the first call female country artist for the various international resorts that cater to the corporate clients that make the Phoenix area home for their annual conventions. She also opened for many major touring acts while there. Sarah recorded and regionally released her first record, West Texas Wind, in 1991 on Little Bear Records. In the spring of 1992, Sarah moved to Santa Barbara, California to broaden her performance horizons on the highly competitive music circuit in and around Southern California. With a new band, her reputation grew quickly and she was soon seen by the cream of the local agencies, ...
