Principally recorded at Bearsville Studios, Bearsville, New York. Digitally remastered by Scott Hull (Classic Sound, New York, New York). This impressive major label debut (an earlier album was released independently) contains ... Full Descriptionsome of the Indigo Girls' finest compositions. INDIGO GIRLS swings between songs of love and philosophical questioning and has become the soundtrack of choice for many a college student. This album is the genuine article-made for staying up late and listening to over and over.
INDIGO GIRLS cuts closer to the emotional bone than most pop/rock records, exploring the pain of becoming an adult with grace and depth that never lapse into pap or sentimentality. The wistful "Kid Fears" benefits from the vocal contributions of Michael Stipe. Standout songs include the students' anthem "Closer to Fine" and "Prince of Darkness," but there are many other fine tracks on this collection. The level of musicianship is unquestionably high. Vocalists Amy Ray and Emily Saliers achieve what one reviewer called "the most richly harmonious vocal pairing in pop music since Simon and Garfunkel."
Additional personnel includes: John Jennings (electric guitar); Scarlet Rivera (violin); Lisa Germano (fiddle); Martin McCarrick (cello, accordion); Jane Scarpantoni (cello); Jai Winding, Maggie Roche (piano); Benmont Tench (organ); John Van Tongeren, Dede Vogt, Kasim Sultan, Sara Lee, Edgar Meyer (bass); Jerry Marotta, Kenny Aronoff, Budgie (drums, percussion); Talvin Singh (percussion); Jackson Browne, David Crosby (background vocals).

Amy Ray and Emily Saliers have been playing music together since they met as young girls. RITES OF PASSAGE marks a creative and artistic watershed for the duo. The album strikes a fine balance between politics and romance, rhythm and melody, and acoustic and electric musicianship.
RITES OF PASSAGE features special guests and memorable songs and performances. The album's standout tracks demand attention. The political "Three Hits" is classic Amy Ray. "Galileo" finds Saliers exploring philosophical matters (again) and features backing vocals by Jackson Browne and David Crosby. "Ghost" is a haunting reminder of the power of lost love. Indigo Girls cover Dire Straits' "Romeo and Juliet," and The Roches guest on the original fear-of-flying hymn "Airplane." Siouxsie and the Banshees drummer Budgie, bassist Sara Lee, and fiddler Lisa Germano also lend strong musical support. The depth and breadth of the Indigo Girls' songwriting on RITES OF PASSAGE will keep even the most discerning listeners happy. This is one for Indigo novices and fans alike.

| | VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)
Indigo Girls CD music
$11.59 
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of RIVERDANCE. There's also a lovely rendition of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" that's topped only by Ron Wood's reappearance on a finale of the Stones' "Ruby Tuesday." VH1 PRESENTS THE CORRS LIVE IN DUBLIN is a fine mix of the band's greatest hits with a few well-chosen covers, ...

| | Rob Thomas Something To Be CD (2005) DualDisc
Indigo Girls songs
$16.05 
This is a DualDisc, which contains a CD on one side of the disc and a DVD on the other.
When Matchbox Twenty's first album became a hit, some critics lumped the band in with flash-in-the-pan rock acts of the day. What these early naysayers missed, of course, is that in vocalist Rob Thomas, Matchbox Twenty had one of the finest mainstream pop/rock songwriters in the business. Not only did Thomas rack up a string of hits with the Florida group, but he also co-penned "Smooth" from Santana's Grammy-winning 1999 comeback album, SUPERNATURAL.
With SOMETHING TO BE, his solo debut, Thomas pulls out all the stylistic stops, revealing that Matchbox Twenty's alternative-rock format provided a somewhat limited forum for his considerable talents. "Lonely No More" mixes an insistent dance beat with an insanely catchy chorus that sounds straight out of the boy-band textbook. The title track is a sly lyrical dig at poseurs of all stripes, backed by an 1980s electro-funk groove, while the burbling synths and Eastern percussion of "All That I Am" recall the world fusion experiments of Peter Gabriel and David Byrne. An ambitious effort by a guy who knows his way around a hit single, SOMETHING TO BE is the sound of an artist breaking out.
This release, produced by Matt Serletic, is the first solo album by the former lead singer of matchbox 20. 12 audio tracks are included bplus 20 minutes of behind-the-scenes footage, and bonus song.
Personnel include: Rob Thomas (vocals, piano); Heitor Pereira, Jeff Trott, John Mayer , Mike Campbell, Wendy Melvoin, Kevin Kadish (guitar); Hasan Isakut (kanun); Dan Willis (duduk); Frank London (shofar); Brandon Fields ...
| | Dredg Catch Without Arms CD (2005)
Indigo Girls album
$7.69
Early on, critics often described Dredg as a metal group. However, the quartet has since matured into a hard-edged indie-rock ensemble that seeks diversity and refinement in its music. On CATCH WITHOUT ARMS, the band favors highly orchestrated parts, dense guitar riffs, and powerful drumming. Each song is based around memorable vocal hooks and sensitive lyrical content.
Many tracks on CATCH WITHOUT ARMS have a searching quality to them. Despite the sheer force of the music, this release is ultimately marked by well constructed melodies and intriguing harmonic underpinnings. This is due in part to singer Gavin Hayes, who sounds more like U2's Bono than a metal screecher. Hayes's tenor soars above tunes such as "Ode To the Sun" and the title track. "Hungover On a Tuesday" contains another ...

The influential genre-bending quintet is captured live in a 2000 show in Washington, D.C., in a typical high-energy set that mixes psychedelia, art-rock, and R&B in the inspired "Every Baby Cries the Same," the raucous "They Live By Night," and their reworking ...
| | Bebo Norman Between The Dreaming And The Coming True CD (2006)
Indigo Girls CD music
$14.15
With his husky voice, good looks, and a gift for dreamy melodies, Bebo Norman could have had a career as a romantic balladeer. Instead, the CCM artist's love songs are of the transcendent variety, and his passion is for justice, faith, and optimism in an often dark world. The songs on his fifth album are countrified pop songs with layered acoustic guitars and uplifting choruses, but the lyrics are not all sweetness and light. On the heart-broken ballad "Now That You're Gone," ...
