| | Giant Sand Center Of The Universe CD Giant Sand Discography of CDs
Giant Sand's ninth album represents a new peak for this fine and prolific band. Led by Howe Gelb and based in Arizona, the band roams freely between raucous, loud rock & roll and country-tinged balladry. There are definite parallels between ... Full Descriptionthis band's work and the work of Neil Young, especially his more sprawling efforts with Crazy Horse.
CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE is made up of some of Gelb's best songs. There's the cheerful and popish "Milkshake Girl," followed by the gorgeous "Stuck." The latter song melds a churchly bearing (complete with swelling organ parts) with a casually honest first-person narrative. The band plays with commitment and devotion to the material and to the moment at every turn. Gelb and cohorts have released many fine works, and this is decidedly one of the best to start with for the unfamiliar.
Additional personnel includes: Victoria Williams (background vocals).
Producers: Howe Gelb, Michael Dumas, John Convertino.
Giant Sand: Howe Gelb (vocals, guitar, harmonica, piano); Joey Burns (acoustic bass); Paula Jean Brown (electric bass); John Convertino (drums, kalimba).
Spin (5/93, pp.85-87) - Highly Recommended - "...probably Gelb's most straightly rockin' release ever....Gelb's lyrics are filled with rambling truth and trash-biting imagery, while his guitar work embraces an incredible width of style and invention..."

Center Of The Universe album
 $11.19    
Black Eyed Peas, the hip-hop crossover juggernaut that propelled singer Fergie and producer Will.I.Am to superstardom, have, since 2003's ELEPHUNK, been audaciously plugging away at their bombastic but lighthearted style of rap-cum-dance pop--an effort that has translated to a run of successful chart-topping singles including "My Humps," "Pump It," and "Don't Phunk ...

Center Of The Universe CD music
$15.64  
The idea behind FLIGHT 666 was seemingly birthed from a WAYNE'S WORLD fantasy sequence: the mighty Iron Maiden would embark upon a world tour of exotic locales, transported to each venue in a custom 757 jet piloted by the band's lead singer, with scores of crew, journalists, and family members in tow. Surprisingly, ...
| | Neil Young Archives Vol. 1 (1963 - 1972) CDs (2009) 1963-1972; Box Set
Center Of The Universe music CDs
$84.99 
This eight-CD box set, with about one-third previously unreleased material, sparks the beginning of a promising series of Neil Young ARCHIVES, and serves as a document of the heady exploration and growth that the beloved artist undertook between the innocent early 1960s and the explosive early '70s. The first CD preserves some early solo demos and his work with his teenage band the Squires, a Duane Eddy-ish enterprise that made the ...
| | Dave Matthews Band Big Whiskey And The Groogrux King (w/DVD) CDs (2009) With DVD
Center Of The Universe songs
$19.05
The first studio album since the death of saxophonist LeRoi Moore, BIG WHISKEY AND THE GROOGRUX KING finds the Dave Matthews Band none the worse for wear and collaborating with superstar producer Rob Cavallo (best known for his extensive work with Green Day). Cavallo's way with an aggressive riff is in evidence on "Shake Me Like a Monkey," a funky track vaguely reminiscent of Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer," and the driving "Why I Am," which recalls the Knack's "My Sharona." Other songs, such as the groovy, polyrhythmic "Spaceman," find the band returning to classic jammy, chops-a-riffic DMB territory. Full of prominent hooks and snap-tight ensemble playing, BIG WHISKEY gave DMB fans another reason to rejoice.

$11.16
Digitally remastered by Bob Ludwig (Gateway Mastering Studios).
Up until 1983's UNDERCOVER, it had been quite a long time since rock's reigning aristocracy made anything besides their status as such (and the rewards thereof) an album's theme. But with the exception of "She Was Hot," a lustful rocker that wouldn't have sounded out of place on SOME GIRLS, this year's Rolling Stones had something else on their ...
