| | Sound Of Sound CD
This is a hip little sampler for the next chapter of David Byrne's Luaka Bop label. Budget-priced, it offers tracks from many of the artists who either have recently released or soon will be releasing new full-lengths on the imprint. That said, it works beautifully on its own as a record, with cuts by Parisian collective Nouvelle Vague, the legendary Brazilian songwriter and singer Tim Maia, 21st century Renaissance man Jim White, the newly revitalized Os Mutantes, and Kassin + 2 as well as his mates Moreno + 2 and Domenico + 2, who play spaced-out modern Brazilian sounds weaving soul, psychedelia, electronic dance music, and bossa into a breezy, summery whole. In large part, this is all about the sound of rhythm and the rhythm of sound, and with the exception of Nouvelle Vague and White, it's all south of the equator. Good stuff. ~ Thom Jurek Sound Of Sound Review

Sound Of Sound album
 $9.55     
Susan Boyle's grand unveiling on Britain's Got Talent was with a song from Les Miserables - the very song that lends this album its title -- and if she could become an international sensation based on a show tune standard, there's no reason for her to change her approach on her debut, since that's the sound that made her a star. Plus, a large part of Boyle's appeal is that she's a middle-aged woman recalling a bygone era when there were singers that appealed to an adult audience by offering ...

Sound Of Sound CD music
$9.74 
Since Jimmy Buffett never leaves his comfort zone, it's hard to call 2009's Buffet Hotel a return to roots but, in a way, it is. Discounting the mock rap on "Turn Up the Heat and Chill the Rosé," this album doesn't even have the lingering country and reggae flavors that seasoned 2006's Take the Weather ...

| | James Gregory Samsara CD (2008)
Sound Of Sound album
$12.79
We have seen premier jazz performers defined, whether for one album or 
an era, by a skillfully crafted reworking of a well-known pop song – the way Coltrane is synonymous with "My Favorite Things," and Louis Armstrong with "Wonderful World." It’s a case of the right instrument on the right song at the right time.Over the course of a thirty-year career, Gregory James has written most of his own material, and that is true again on his ninth album Samsara (Rogue 1080-5). But the track that may best define this rewarding release is his amazing, touching cover of the Beatles’ "And I Love Her." It is a simple and thoughtful rendition, unmistakably Gregory James with rich twists and turns from his flamenco-jazz-style guitar, colorful bass guitar work and daring woodwind play.

Sound Of Sound music CDs
$20.25
Supersonic Riverside Blues aka Franck Vigroux is a French avant-garde musician operating on the borders of rock, jazz, electronic and contemporary art music. Multi instrumentalist and composer Franck Vigroux is part of the coterie of French experimentalists that have been raiding the borders of all genres of music since the 2000\'s. He leads many projects, applying musical composition and interaction with new technologies and improvisation, as well as use of , turntables, vintage synth in improvising performance and studio work. \"A blast of analogue noise heralds Data 4.5.1 but within 20 seconds it’s clear the listener isn’t going to be subjected to yet another round of harsh circuit abuse. French sound artist Franck Vigroux (aka Supersonic Riverside Blues) identifies his practice as a mix of electro-acoustic and electronica, though to these ears his music has a more visceral quality. Vigroux’s sound sources are hard to identify, though his signature sound appears to be a vintage synth doused in modern digital effects. Submerged ...
