| | Datsuns Smoke & Mirrors CD Datsuns Discography of CDs
This 2006 import (reissued stateside in 2008) concocts a fiery fusion of proto-punk, garage stomp, and slide-guitar blues. What separates these New Zealanders from most of their raw, garage-revivalist peers is their knack for melody. "Such A Pretty Curse" and "Blood Red" both draw their energy from catchy hooks. But elsewhere, "Emperor's New Clothes" and "Tiny Dlunder Stolen Thunder" go for straight-ahead gusto. There are even a couple of ragged, jangly ballads to balance out the affair, highlighted by album closer (and possible response/ode to The Rolling Stones) "Don't Shine Your Light On Me."
Audio Mixers: Nick Abbott; Cenzo Townshend.Q (p.140) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] craftily woven mixture of typical, turbo-charged punk such as 'System Overload' and more complex fare that reaches a peak with the startling closer 'Too Little Fire'..."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.47) - "Dolf Datsun's carnal holler leers like prime Robert Plant, while wailing girl-group backing singers crank the thrills even higher."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.114) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]heir forte remains unashamed headbanger action -- witness the high energy ramalama of 'Maximum Heartbreak'..." Datsuns Smoke & Mirrors Songs Smoke & Mirrors Review

KC's debut album introduced to the world a group that threw various '60s genres into a blender and set the results afire with a blowtorch. One of the pioneers of the progressive rock movement that began in the late '60s and flourished in the early '70s, King Crimson was arguably the most consistently creative band in the genre. On IN THE COURT they blend wispy, Donovan-ish folk-rock with Wagnerian grandeur, mind-bending ...

| | Tom Waits Glitter And Doom Live CDs (2009) Digipak
Smoke & Mirrors CD music
$14.38 
Glitter and Doom Live, a double-disc set, marks Tom Waits' third live effort in his nearly 40-year career, each one summing up his career to the point of its release. The first, Nighthawks at the Diner issued in 1975 on Asylum, is regarded by many as one of the greatest live albums of all time. The second was Big Time, released during his tenure at Island in 1986. The musical performances on disc one of Glitter and Doom Live were culled from Waits' historic sold-out tour of the U.S. and Europe. He compiled and sequenced the set himself, intending to make them sound like a single show. The material leans, understandably, on his recordings with the Anti label. There are stellar performances here, such as "Get Behind the Mule" from The Mule Variations, "Trampled Rose" from Real Gone, and a haunting version of Leadbelly's ...

| | Music From Ground Zero Holy Roller CD (2008)
Smoke & Mirrors album
$13.15
\"Music From Ground Zero\" began on September 11th, 2001.I began writing the first song as I waited in line for a ferry across the Hudson river to get me out of New York City and over to New Jersey. The Towers had already fallen and I had made my way to midtown hoping to get off the island. I knew that many of my friends and former co-workers had not made it and as I rolled through their names and faces I began to feel a song emerging from within. I knew I wouldn\'t be able to explain the horrific tragedy we all had witnessed that morning merely through words. I dedcided song would work far better. In the next few weeks I began recruiting musicians to ...
