Madonna released EROTICA around the same time she released her SEX book, and that's exactly what it sounds like. The title song has a sensuously static groove over which she commands, "Put your hands all over my body." "Where Life Begins" demands that you do something a whole lot more intimate (and quite unrepeatable here) to her. The CD booklet has a photo of Madonna in bondage. To get across the album's naughty feel, Madonna dispensed with the pop prettiness of LIKE A PRAYER and returned to her hard-core dance club roots.

She and co-producer Shep Pettibone, who had made his name as a club DJ and dance remixer, craft some alluring bad-girl grooves (catch the ocean-deep bass on "Waiting") while still managing to keep things catchy. "Deeper And Deeper" is celebratory dance-pop (with a brief Latin break that nods to the music's true roots) and "Rain" stands among Madonna's major ballads. There's a strange heaviness amidst the fun, games and bondage on EROTICA, which "In This Life" goes a long way toward explaining: it's about AIDS and homophobia. At her naughtiest and most R-rated, Madonna still carries a message, and it resonates well beyond the dance floor.

Recorded at Mastermix and Sound Works, New York, New York.

Personnel: Madonna (vocals); Paul Pesco, Jerome Dickens (guitar); Danny Wilensky (saxophone); James "Sleepy Keys" Preston (piano); Joe Moskowitz (keyboards, drums, programming); Shep Pettibone (keyboards, sequencing, programming); Tony Shimkin (keyboards, sequencing, programming, drum programming, background vocals); Andre Betts (keyboards, strings, synthesizer, piano, bass, drums); Doug Wimbish (bass); Anton Fig (drums); Sander Selover (programming); Donna Delory, Niki Harris (background vocals).

Producers: Madonna, Shep Pettibone, Andre Betts.

Rolling Stone (11/26/92, p.70) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...EROTICA is everything Madonna has been denounced for being--meticulous, calculated, domineering and artificial. It accepts those charges and answers with a brilliant record to prove them..."
Spin (1/93, p.62) - Recommended - "...largely poignant, reflective, and compassionate in tone..."
Q (12/92, p.121) - 3 Stars - Good - "...the substance of EROTICA resides in a range of straight-talking, almost intimate songs based, not on an idea about sex, but on experience of relationships..."
Musician (1/93, p.90) - "...ranges from the snazzy, deep house groove of `Deeper And Deeper' to the luscious, slow-tickling pulse of `Rain'..."
Village Voice (3/2/93, p.5) - Ranked #22 in the Village Voice's list of the 40 Best Albums Of 1992.

A work of manipulative genius. The keyboards, among other things, lend the album a distinctly mature and sexy feel.

4 stars 3rd greatest album
EROTICA did not suffer in sales, by the way. It went on to go 3x platinum. It also featured 5 hit singles. MADONNA is not my favorite singer, but I have all of her 90's albums because she reinvents herself all the time. BEDTIME STORIES is her best album in my opinion. I didn't like AMERICAN LIFE... that was her biggest flop...it barely sold just under 800,000.

I'd like to put you in a Trance all over the World! And for I time I did.nAnd wouldn't we all like to be the Ringmaster at times. I was. Deeper and Deeper echoes everything to hippies to cheap Golddust to Nazis. In all a good CD.

Megadeth Endgame CD  (2009)

Erotica
CD $15.65  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
The release of 2009's ENDGAME brings with it a startling realization: if first-generation thrash metal fans had been polled about which of the genre's "Big Four" -- Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, and Megadeth -- would prove to be the most resilient and consistently prolific over the next quarter century, the only sure-fire consensus would probably have been "well, anyone but Megadeth!" And yet, 12 studio albums and 150-plus songs later -- more than any of the other three have managed -- that's exactly what's come to pass. The group's second release for Roadrunner, whose title apparently refers to "coming full circle" rather than any sort of goodbye, finds the latest iteration of Megadeth-- debuting new guitarist Chris Broderick(ex-Nevermore, Jag Panzer)--working primarily within their technical thrash comfort zone (think PEACE SELLS through RUST IN PEACE), with only a few latter-day elements and rare experimental diversions. As such, deceptively simple guitar-shredding master classes like "This Day We Fight!," "1,320" (surprisingly, written about "funny car" racing), and first single "Headcrusher" are cut from the same bloody cloth as "Wake Up Dead" and "Set the World Afire," while politicized rants such as "44 Minutes," ...

Whitney Houston I Look To You CD  (2009)

Erotica
CD $13.65  3.9 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
Despite her star having lost some of its luster in the 2000s, Whitney Houston is still regarded as a benchmark for modern singers of all stripes (from soulful divas to would-be pop idols). Almost seven years in the making, 2009's I LOOK TO YOU marks a music industry homecoming for the singer. Supported by a mob of A-list producers and songwriters including Diane Warren, David Foster, R. Kelly, Alicia Keys, and many more, Houston's vocals are in fine form on material ranging from hip-hop-tinged contemporary R&B ("Million Dollar Bill") to `70s covers (Leon Russell's "A Song for You") ...

Pearl Jam Backspacer CD  (2009)

Erotica
CD $23.69  5 stars Top 100
Of all the bands to emerge from the early `90s grunge explosion, Pearl Jam was both the longest-lived and most consistently interesting. After several albums that found the group taking an increasingly experimental direction, the Seattle quintet returned to its straight-ahead hard rock roots with 2006's self-titled effort. In 2009 however, Pearl Jam surprised fans again with an album containing some of the unit's catchiest, poppiest songs ever. According to lead vocalist Eddie Vedder, most of the new material was written prior to recording, which was a significant departure from the group's usual in-studio jamming method of composition. The result is one of the unit's most focused and accessible works since the debut album TEN. The first single "The Fixer" (written my drummer Matt Cameron) is a Kiss-like bit of straight-up pop masquerading as hard rock, while "Just Breathe" is melancholy acoustic singer-songwriter music so sharply crafted it would fit well on an Jack Johnson album. Throughout, Pearl Jam performs with its ...

Erotica
CD $42.05  4 stars
For the soundtrack to the 2004 Hollywood movie SHALL WE DANCE? (a remake of a beloved Japanese film of the same name), music producer Randy Spendlove assembled an eclectic set of songs, all focusing on the romantic and/or dance elements of the picture. The buoyant, Latin-tinged "Sway," performed by Pussycat Dolls, leads the track list, followed by GoTan Project's electronica-tango fusion "Santa Maria." British jazz-pop wunderkind Jamie Cullum offers up "I Could Have Danced All Night," and Mya adds a bit of hip-hop-heavy R&B with a bass-heavy take on David Bowie's "Let's Dance." ...

It's unclear precisely which definition of their name Hinder prefer: "to impede progress" or "the outdated midwestern slang term for the buttocks." Both fit, because Hinder is an unapologetic throwback to the post-Guns 'n' Roses era of hard rock, when dudes like Poison and Motley Crue ditched their glam look in favor of a grungier "street" vibe and ...

Ted Shafer's Jelly Roll Jazz Band: Don Kidder, Ted Shafer (banjo); Pete Main, Roy Giomi (clarinet); Earl Scheelar (cornet); Bill Bardin (trombone); Jim Maihack, Tom Downs, Graham Rosenberg, Dick Bowman (tuba). Banjoist Ted Shafer has long been a "keeper of the flame" for Dixieland jazz, staying true to its New Orleans roots without resorting to pompous formalism. Shafer's Jelly Roll Jazz Band generally plays music for relaxed good times, and this disc is no exception. While some of Shafer's other albums have mined less well-known songs, this NEW ORLEANS volume presents mostly chestnuts and classics from the Crescent City repertoire. The party ambiance ...
