| | Groove Armada Soundboy Rock CD Groove Armada Discography of CDs
Issued during 2007 in the U.K. and the following year in the U.S., SOUNDBOY ROCK finds the British techno duo Groove Armada (Andy Cato and Tom Findlay) doling out more dance-floor-ready tunes. While club-oriented anthems are the order of the day--most notably the funky, M.I.A.-like "Get Down" and "The Things That We Could Share," a propulsive track with Simian Mobile Disco associate Simon Lord--ROCK also presents some more serene moments (see the dreamy "What's Your Version?"), making for a relatively dynamic set.

Soundboy Rock album
 $14.59   
Tinsley Ellis has some great studio albums in his catalog, but like several blues guitarists, you have to see him live or at least hear him live to experience what the fuss is about. And the guitarist, backed by a strong supporting cast, delivers an exceptionally pleasing and well-rounded set on Live! Highwayman. Beginning with the standard brand of Texas or Austin blues, the musician opens with the mid-tempo "To the Devil for a Dime," which comes off as a blend of Stevie Ray Vaughan and a grittier, rowdier Robert Cray. Cray is also heard somewhat on the heartache soul of "The Last Song," which travels into epic Floyd-ian bombast near the conclusion. Setting the groove early, Ellis has an equally blues soul and voice that suits his fabulous playing to a T. From there he ventures down a slightly less edgy, more swinging vibe on the bouncy, sway-inducing title track the way B.B. King would've performed it in his prime. It's also on this number where you get to see the guitar chops of Ellis front and center. Even the slower, downbeat tunes are strong, especially the deliberately building "A Quitter Never Wins," which brings to mind Cray and Buddy Guy. About halfway through the song he displays his style before asking if any blues fans are in attendance. The second half of the number is more of a rock-blues style à la David Gilmour but just as solid. The first track that seems to be almost run of the mill is the mid-tempo and keyboard-tinted "Real Bad Way" although Ellis manages to play off it well two-thirds of the way in. One of the first sleeper picks is "Hell or High Water," which has the band picking up steam thanks to the Evil ...

| | Portishead Third CD (2008)
Soundboy Rock music CDs
$11.99 
More than a decade after its self-titled sophomore outing, the pioneering British electronica ensemble Portishead finally resurfaced with 2008's THIRD, an album that both meets and defies expectations. Although the record features many of the group's aural signatures--most notably that exquisitely dark, cinematic mood and Beth Gibbons's heartbreaking vocals--it presents little in the way of vintage trip-hop, proving that sonic masterminds Geoff Barrow and Adrian Utley aren't keen on repeating themselves. "Silence" kicks off the affair with tumbling percussion loops, while "Nylon Smile" drifts along on spare, slinky instrumentation, and "Machine Gun" moves to jarringly martial metrics that are battlefields away from any pop arena. Though THIRD is initially disorienting, repeated listens reveal a deeply engaging and fascinating ...

Soundboy Rock songs
$13.65
While remaining true to their template of sophisticated, abstract electronica, Thievery Corporation continue to expand their sonic palette with 2008's RADIO RETALIATION.

Guests include Afro-beat royalty Femi Kuti, sitar guru Anushka Shankar, go-go godfather Chuck Brown, and Brazilian singer Seu Jorge, among others, lending sparkle and variation to the wide-ranging set.

| | Wolfgang Schalk Rainbows In The Night CD (2003)
Soundboy Rock album
$12.39
Recorded at Water Music Studios, Hoboken, New Jersey, in November 2001.
Personnel: Wolfgang Schalk (guitar); Dave Kikoski (piano); Andy McKee (bass instrument); Ian Froman (drum).
All About Jazz writes: With heartfelt sincerity and dedication to guitar greats such as Wes Montgomery and George Benson, jazz guitarist Wolfgang Schalk interprets his vision and love for the jazz guitar dialect. Rainbows in the Night is a thoughtful and earnest recording. The compositions are seemingly not intended to highlight a blistering jam session, but more a mellow sense of swing. Wolfgang Schalk, like most musicians of his caliber, has been on the jazz scene for a while. A native of Austria who now lives in New York City, Schalk has garnered international acclaim as a talented composer and guitarist. His style is smooth and his sound exudes a harmonious and melodic voice that's familiar and warm. The new recording features impressive musicians, including notables Dave Kikoski on piano and Andy McKee on bass. The quartet is made complete with fine rhythm work by drummer Ian Froman. Schalk wrote all of the compositions, which display his spectrum of skills from the semi-cooker "Mystify" (which is reminiscent of early an George Benson, with its rapid solo and chord runs), to the cool groove "What's That" (which reflects the group cohesiveness centered around very nice soloing from ...
