Best Of Wagner
 $9.55  
Although they've often languished in the shadow of more famous satanically inspired death metal bands like Morbid Angel and Deicide, Vital Remains have gradually managed to carve out a healthy underground career for themselves, despite their rather isolated home base in Providence, RI. And it's into the dark, uncharted bowels of that state's rinky-dink studios (most frequently the curiously named Atonal Studios -- oh, the irony!) circa 1989-1991 that 2006's Horrors of Hell transports willing listeners, by collecting 13 tracks from three separate demos laying the foundation of the Vital Remains story. Both sides of 1991's horrendously produced (but doubly influential to tape traders because of it) Black Mass single initiate this blasphemous ritual with the descriptively macabre tandem of "Of Pure Unholyness" and "Frozen Terror" -- both reminiscent of early, Morbid Visions-era Sepultura and, of course, Morbid Angel. By comparison, the five ensuing recordings from the previous year's Excruciating Pain demo almost sound overly produced. As evidenced by the likes of "Human Sacrifice" and "Nocturnal Blasphemy," they are also distinctly thrashier and slightly more melodic in general approach -- not unlike Dark Angel, Sadus, and Slayer, whose elemental teachings are blatantly splattered all over "Fallen Angels" (listen to the Lombardo-esque hi-hat and freakish Hanneman/King-styled ...
| | Decapitated Organic Hallucinosis CD (2006)
Best Of Wagner
$13.85 
With the departure of their founding vocalist -- the heartwarmingly named Sauron -- the remaining members of Polish death metal veterans Decapitated have apparently decided to mark the installment of his successor, Covan, with a wholesale change of direction for their fourth studio album, Organic Hallucinosis. Launching off of their new frontman's more versatile skills in delivering various stages of deathly grunting, the band has stepped up the complexity of their songwriting to match, while establishing a non-traditional death metal aesthetic somewhere between the lopsided time signatures of Meshuggah and down-tuned power grooves of Pantera. And even though the exceedingly challenging results don't usually make for ideal moshpit conditions, intellectual onslaughts like "A Poem About an Old Prison Man," "Day 69" and "Flash-B(l)ack," do promise hours of gradual interpretation for those inclined towards thinking man's extreme metal. They also lack nothing in terms of intensity or brutality, only rarely exposing even the remotest traces of melody (see "Invisible Control") ...

Throughout his long, prolific career, Charles Aznavour has worked in a variety of musical styles, from traditional French chanson to small-combo jazz to easy listening pop to a few rather odd side trips into the distinctively Gallic form of '60s beat music known as ye-ye. Yet 1995's IDIOTE JE T'AIME--yes, that translates to "I love you, Idiot"--showcases Aznavour in the style for which his perhaps best known and most beloved by his fans, backed by a full yet never overbearing orchestra ...

Best Of Wagner
$9.75
On the second album of the compilation series of Andrés Segovia's works from MCA, the master of the classical guitar plays works from three of the major composers for guitar in the Spanish tradition. The first four tracks are portions of "Fantasia Para un Gentilhombre," a piece written exclusively for Segovia by his friend, the blind composer Joaquin Rodrigo. The piece includes accompaniment from the Symphony of the Air, with Enrique Jorda conducting. The work is stunning in its grandeur and almost seems to be an influence of Gil Evans' later arrangements in style (though, of course, Evans had other influences to deal with for Sketches of Spain). The second cluster of tracks make up the "Concierto del Sur" by Mexico's first national composer, Manuel Maria Ponce, again with accompaniment from the Symphony of the Air. Finally, eight tracks at the end of the album contain Federico Moreno Torroba's "Castles of Spain." The main highlights of the album are perhaps the third movement ...

Best Of Wagner
$14.09
Anthony & Joseph Paratore BiographyOn one piano or two, Anthony and Joseph Paratore are considered one of today's foremost keyboard duos. They have appeared on numerous celebrity series throughout the United States, and with such orchestras as the Berlin Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, New York Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, London's BBC Symphony, Amsterdam Philharmonic, and many more. Their work with these orchestras has brought them together with many fine conductors, including Boulez, Solti, von Dohnanyi, Salonen, and Zinman. They are frequent guests at the festivals of Berlin, Salzburg, and Lincoln Center's Mostly Mozart, among others. The duo has appeared on a number of television programs in the USA and Europe, including NBC's "Today Show" and the "Tonight Show," as well as National Public Radio's "All Things Considered." PBS TV specials include the 20th Anniversary of the Boston Pops with John Williams, "Piano Pizzazz from Wolf Trap," and their own special program titled "The Paratores: Two Brothers, Four Hands." Born in Boston of Italian-Amerian descent, Anthony and Joseph come from a close-knit musical family. They began their careers as solo pianists: Joseph having appeared with the Boston Symphony at 17 years of age, and Anthony having toured South America. ...
