| | James Brown Living In America CD James Brown Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
LIVING IN AMERICA is a radical update of the classic James Brown sound, utilizing '80s/'90s production styles. From synth bass lines to guest rappers, turntable scratches and programmed rhythm tracks, the album is a virtual textbook of post-hip-hop recording techniques. This 180 degree stylistic turn could be viewed as either bold or opportunistic, depending on your inclination. You might miss the tightly-wound funk of the JB's, but you have to admire Brown for refusing to stagnate. Regardless of the backing, it's Brown's emotive grunts, shrieks and moans that are the centerpiece here, as on any of his other albums. For the faithful, that will be enough.

Living In America Music Review Purchase Living In America CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Shakira She Wolf CD (2009)
Living In America
 $11.18   
Last time around, Shakira touched upon so many styles she couldn't be contained on one album, splitting Oral Fixation in two. This time, she focuses on one sound only: a pulsating electro-disco that crosses all boundaries and welcomes all nationalities. Such concentration behooves Shakira, freeing her to release her inner She Wolf, a wild wacko who's as coo coo as she is carnal. And for as sexy as Shakira is -- crucially, her music is sexy too -- what really gives She Wolf its bite is her inspired nuttiness, how she laments that Matt Damon's not meant for her, and wishes her ex-lover and his new girl a horrible vacation where the room smells and the toilet doesn't flush. "Darling, it is no joke, this is lycanthropy," she sings on the title track with no small trace of humor, and this blend of cheerful weirdness and sick beats -- often supplied by the Neptunes, delivering tough, sensual rhythms in a way they haven't in a long time, but also John Hill and Wyclef Jean -- is giddily addicting, a celebration of all the strange sensuality that comes out at night.

| | Z-Ro Cocaine CD (2009)
Living In America
$15.05  
Despite his status as one of hip-hop's most prolific artists, Z-Ro never quite spreads himself too thin. The provocatively titled COCAINE is his second release from 2009, and features his trademark self-aware, yet rapier-sharp lyrics over some of the hotter beats out of the fertile Houston scene. The Intro skilfully sets out the landscape as the dark-vocaled MC reflects upon his choice of a life of street dealing without a shred of remorse, while stressing his decision was not exactly the wise one. From there, Z-Ro, an expert storyteller, wanders from tale to tale, each one delivered ...

| | Very Best Of Wilson Pickett CD (1993)
Living In America
$8.79  
Principally recorded at Stax Records, Memphis, Tennessee and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania between 1965 and 1971. Includes liner notes by Kevin Phinney.
THE VERY BEST OF WILSON PICKETT features 16 hits "Wicked" Wilson Pickett recorded for Atlantic records. The set includes a discography, Billboard chart peak numbers and historic photographs.
Rhino's 1993 collection The Very Best of Wilson Pickett remains the best single-disc anthology of the fiery soul singer's work, choosing 16 of his best tracks for Atlantic and presenting them in excellent remastered sound quality. Pickett never departed all that much from the rough, swaggering vocals that first made his name, but he was utterly electrifying within that style, setting the standard for Southern soul singers behind Otis Redding. All of Pickett's early signature hits -- "In the Midnight Hour," "634-5789 (Soulsville, U.S.A.)," "Land of 1,000 Dances," "Mustang Sally," and "Funky Broadway" -- ...

| | Dru Down Gangsta Pimpin' CD (2002)
Living In America
$9.25
California Bay-Area gangsta rapper Dru Down takes his pimpin'-themed rhymes to another level on Gangsta Pimpin', no doubt a suitable name for this album. Much like fellow Bay-Area rappers E-40 and Too Short, as well as his group, the Luniz, Dru has his mind on a few things in particular: women, money, partying, and more women -- in that order. You can't help but find this album quite fun and somewhat humorous; Dru doesn't take himself too seriously, exemplified best on songs such as "Bloodsucker." Much like post-Death Row Snoop Dogg, Dru is a rather peaceful gangsta, interested in getting his pimp on and livin' large like a real hustler -- in ...

| | Sound Of The Jam: Deluxe Sound & Vision CD (2003) (Import) Import; United Kingdom
Living In America
$36.79
This three-disc version of the collection THE SOUND OF THE JAM is a great collection of tunes by the legendary British '80s band who mixed mod, punk, and pop, and contains two CD's plus a DVD.
Though the Jam is rightly counted among Britain's pioneering punk bands, Paul Weller and his cohorts never did quite fit the mold. While the Woking combo's early recordings certainly traded in a brand of raw aggression similar to the Sex Pistols, they always placed a premium on the distinctly anti-punk virtues of catchy melodies, '60s cover tunes, and precise musicianship. In addition, the Jam's fashion sense matched the music; safety pins and combat boots were eschewed in favor of sharp three-button mod suits and two-tone shoes. More importantly, the Jam was one of the few original punk-era groups to break away from the genre's narrow confines and progress artistically, while simultaneously garnering huge commercial success in the UK.
THE SOUND OF THE JAM collects the best of group's studio efforts, from the angry youthful politics and primal guitar fury of "In the City" (whose main riff was allegedly nicked by the Sex Pistols for their "Holidays in the Sun") to the keen social commentary and acoustic pop of "That's Entertainment" to the Style Council-foreshadowing neo-soul of "Beat Surrender." A remarkably ...
| | Eddie Angel Meets The Beatles CD (2005)
Living In America
$14.99 
The title of this album might lead one to believe that Eddie Angel, guitar hero of masked rock & roll instrumentalists los Straitjackets, was trying his hand at a crop of Beatles covers, but that's not the case. Eddie Angel Meets the Beatles is a covers album, but it's actually songs from the Beatles' set list in their early club days -- that is, tunes that were actually covered by the young group itself. For fans of Angel, this also marks a significant event in that the renowned instrumentalist actually takes lead vocals throughout the album, conjuring up the raw, rathskeller-throated style of Hamburg-era John Lennon. (With the exception of a vocal turn on the 2002 album Dressed in Black: A Tribute to Johnny Cash, Angel usually lets his guitar do the singing.) This is an album that shimmies, shakes, rocks, rolls, even swoons (into loungy '50s-style balladry). Most significantly, Angel is a ringer on guitar. Back in the day, George Harrison was able to pull off Carl Perkins and Chuck Berry riffs, but Angel, now in his fifties, has evolved to the point where he's practically transcended guitar influences like ...
