| | Mystery Jets Twenty One CD - Import Mystery Jets Discography of CDs
2008 sophomore album from the Britpop outfit, an awe-inspiring collection of oddball Pop songs. A clear departure from their debut album, these four young men have grown up in more ways than one. Produced predominately by DJ legend Erol Alkan, Twenty One is a huge stylistic and emotional leap forward for the band. This new emotional depth dovetails neatly with the band's raised musical ambition on the steamrollering rhythms of the first single 'Young Love'. 12 tracks. 679.

Twenty One 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 soft, stately versions of pop hits and standards. That time was the late `60s and early `70s, and apart from a rather faithful version of Madonna's "You'll See," I Dreamed a Dream could very well have been released all those years ago, as it mixes up the show tunes, gospel, and Christmas carols with covers of Skeeter Davis' "The End of the World," the Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses," and a version of "Daydream Believer" that is easily the slowest on record. Boyle sings beautifully throughout, delivering more of the same of what she did in her moment in the sun on television. Those won over by Boyle, either her voice or story, will surely be satisfied. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
There's no question that Susan Boyle's story is inspiring, but the same adjective can't quite apply to her debut, I Dreamed a Dream. This is almost a willful antonym of "inspiring" -- it is not stirring, rousing, or stimulating, it ...
| | Jimmy Buffett Buffet Hotel CD (2009)
Twenty One 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 with You, with all of the songs riding a cool, mellow country-rock wave, the kind that has been his stock-in-trade since the `70s. There's a difference between being part of a tradition and being stuck in the past and Buffett is surely in the former, not shying away from the new millennial mess, admitting that we all have "A Lot to Drink About" and never flinching from his advancing years, most movingly on a cover of Bruce Cockburn's "Life's Short Call Now." Cockburn's song is paired with another expertly chosen cover, Jesse Winchester's "Rhumba Man" (he covered Winchester's "Nothin' But a Breeze" the album before), but this has the highest percentage of original Buffett compositions since 1999's Beach House on the Moon, which is a good indication that Jimmy is in good form. While a handful are collaborations with his longtime colleague Mac McAnally, many of these are co-written ...
| | Pink Funhouse CD (2008) Explicit
Twenty One music CDs
$8.99  
Pink's insistently hooky, attitude-filled pop-rock has kept the singer a fixture on the radio and on singles charts since the early 2000s. The artist's fifth effort, FUNHOUSE, doesn't tamper with the formula: Pink's powerhouse vocals and in-your-face approach, backed by stadium-sized production, are in full effect on all 12 tracks. Even though the album deals primarily with aftermath of her divorce and includes serious moments of self-confrontation like "Sober," fans needn't worry that Pink has lost any of her chutzpah.
If anything, there's an increased sense of confidence and newfound liberation on tracks like the chest-thumping "So What" and the mischievous, bouncing "Bad Influence." In softer moments, like the ballad "I Don't Believe ...
| | Very Best Of Lou Monte CD (1997)
Twenty One songs
$15.89
Digitally remastered by Eliot Goshman (1996 BMG Studios, New York, New York).
Lou Monte, the king of the Italian-American novelty song, is well represented on this career-spanning anthology that contains selections from his terms with RCA Victor, Roulette and Reprise, including all of his Top 100 hits. Only a couple of ballads interrupt an otherwise non-stop program of novelties, many of which are Italian remakes of popular songs such as "(At The) Darktown Strutters' Ball" and "The Sheik of Araby." In Monte's world, even the animals are Italian, from the chipmunk-voiced "Pepino the Italian Mouse" ...

Twenty One music CDs
$6.69
Dear Prospective listener,I write songsI record songsIt's a form of expression you see.AlanA review of 'Animal Magic' by Paul Rayfield:I'm sure that his music will not be everyone's cup of tea but who can ever rise to that challenge?"Animal Magic" contains mainly mid to lower tempo songs which have a jazzy influence because of chord structure. The last three songs depart from this formula and perhaps a different song order would have helped break the regularity of style. I'm probably more in tune with the pop tendencies of the last three songs but can't help but be impressed by the first seven. Also, please remember it is Friday night. Any criticisms I have of Animal Magic pale in comparison to the praise Ihave for it. Here are my criticisms. Alan's vocals have improved since his first CD yet. may still not portray each song in its best light (I happen to find his vocals engaging). Rearranging the order of the songs could have helped with the highs and lows of the album dynamics. Can't think of anything else. Here are my praises. Alan is an arranger of the highest calibre. He chooses the right part and right sound so consistently it's sickening. The album is so full of fresh, interesting ideas I wouldn't be at all surprised if Alan has a constant migraine due to the enormity of ideas busting to get out of his head. I remember reading an article about Nik Kershaw, saying he was a master of key changes. I can only assume Alan taught Nik everything he knows. Alanblends different keys so well you have trouble knowing there are way more than three chords to these songs. Each change seems so natural. As for lyrics, Alan has a quirky, interesting, original style. There tends to be a story behind each song. From the first line I'm hooked, wanting to know how it all pans out. You might call him country's answer to jazz/pop/crossover/experimental/never-heard-before music (or should that be the other way around?). The sounds Alan chooses are smooth, sweet, varied and overall impressive. Out of the blue comes something to distract you from the moment and then ...
