Calypso-Is Like So Music Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Very catchy calypso
What a fun CD this is! And some of the songs are very catchy. Jean and Dinah for one is great and forever stuck in my mind. I was amazed when I heard that this was Robert Mitchum singing this CD. You'd never know. Another song that seems very campy now but still is a real toe tapper is What is This Generation Coming to? Funny lyrics and such a tune. And maybe best of all is Matilda, Matilda.....I'm humming that one night and day weeks later. I do wish Mama Looka Boo Boo hadn't been on it as that one drives me mad! Otherwise it's a great CD from a surprising source.

Rickie Lee Jones Pirates (1981) (Import) Omr

Calypso-Is Like So CD music

$28.29

PIRATES is also available with the album RICKIE LEE JONES on one cassette. This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players. Rickie Lee Jones's second album, PIRATES, continues where her self-titled debut left off. With a record built upon storytelling, Jones resumes her role of poet laureate to the disenchanted and disconsolate. A strongly dynamic outing, the emotion of each song resonates in the detailed arrangements and freewheeling improvisations, the latter best epitomized by the funky party song, "Woody and Dutch on the Slow Train to Peking." However, PIRATES is not a celebratory album. For the most part, this record is darker than its predecessor, and this tone yields even richer insights into Jones's ...

Mike Bloomfield Super Session CD (1968) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

$10.15

A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune"). All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth. Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know how brilliant they could be on stage, and here's another gem, recorded at the Fillmore East this time and featuring 'One Way Out,' 'It's My Own Fault' (with ...

Tool Lateralus CD (2000)

Calypso-Is Like So album

$14.95

"Schism" won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. Approaching Tool's LATERALUS with a casual ear would be a careless endeavor, to say the least. The sheer magnitude of the musical and emotional textures is as heady as it is primal. Standing out as one of the defining traits of the Tool sound is Justin Chancellor's hauntingly melodic bass playing, which often launches into a role reversal with the mountainous guitar work of Adam Jones. The best examples of said phenomenon are found in "The Grudge" and "Reflection." ...

The album expanded upon the group's debut by tackling a variety of styles, utilizing dynamics to striking effect, and establishing the essential guitar interplay between Glenn Tipton and K.K.

Frank Zappa Orchestral Favorites CD (1979) Remastered

Calypso-Is Like So music CDs

$9.99

ORCHESTRAL FAVORITES contains five symphonic works written by Frank Zappa, performed by Zappa himself and his mid-'70s rhythm section with a full orchestra. Recorded at the Royce Hall in Los Angeles in 1975, ORCHESTRAL FAVORITES is similar to Zappa's other symphonic works (parts of BURNT WEENY SANDWICH, 200 MOTELS, etc.). The album was not released until four years later however, due to a skirmish with Warner Bros. Zappa wanted to release a three-record set entitled LATHER, which was to include material from ORCHESTRAL FAVORITES plus the other late-'70s releases SLEEP DIRT and STUDIO TAN. But Warner Bros. forced him to release the complete work as separate ...

Best Of Tom Paxton: I Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound CD (1999)

Calypso-Is Like So songs

$9.09

Principally recorded from 1964 to 1970 at Masterstone Studios & A&R Studios, New York, New York and live at The Bitter End, New York, New York in June 1970. Includes liner notes by Scott Alarik. A 26-track compilation titled after one of Tom Paxton's most beloved songs, I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER WHERE I'M BOUND is a well-balanced overview of the singer-songwriter's 1964-'71 tenure at Elektra Records. Paxton is sometimes overlooked among the top tier of the Greenwich Village folkies, because of the range and variety of his material. Unlike the sometimes-strident Phil Ochs, Paxton mixed his serious, topical compositions with witty, Tom Lehrer-like satires, including "What Did You Learn in School Today?" and "Forest Lawn." He also wrote disarmingly tender love songs, including "The Last Thing on My Mind" and the title track. Naturally, this collection also features two of Paxton's most durable songs, "Bottle of Wine" and the Woody Guthrie-like children's classic "Goin' to the Zoo," along with other tracks from all of Paxton's Elektra albums, many of which have never been available on CD. Digitally remastered by Dan Hersch ...
