Customer Talk To The Hand Reviews 




Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Talks to the ears
Karen Carroll delivers a cd of rollicking blues and some classic r&b. She penned many of the songs herself, including Neked j blues, a rap about a husband that does not deliver the goods, and the hip shaking Talk to the Hand. She does a cover of Misty Blue that almost rivals Dorothy Moore. She has a deep, husky voice that can wrap itself warmly around a ballad as well as belt out the blues. This is my first introduction to Ms. Carroll, and look forward to more of her music.

As the title suggests, this is one of the Tan Canary's most blues-oriented albums.

Talk To The Hand album
CD $6.75  4.4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
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 ...

Chic travels extensively performing in clubs, colleges and Universities, theaters, special events, high schools, middle schools, elementary schools, festivals and benefit shows. His lyrics focus on the positive alternatives while entertaining in a spirited manner. Chic's music transcends cultural and attitudinal barriers, bringing home his message of racial harmony and ethnic diversity through acoustic bluesy ballads, funky rhythms and jazzy upbeat originals.

Chic is a graduate of UC Santa Cruz with a B.S. Degree in Psychology. He served as Head of the Department of Psychodrama at a Community Hospital in Carmel, CA; the Executive Director of a Fair Housing program in Hayward, CA; and the instructor of a class titled "The Creative Process" at Occidental College in L.A. before deciding to focus exclusively on his music. He recorded his first album, "Growing Up," in Paris, France in 1975. He toured throughout France and later landed in Santa Barbara, CA where he founded Chic Street Man's School of Performing Arts. In 1987, he released his second album, "Make It Thru The Night." Chic was the Artistic Director of the Boston production of the international play, "Peace Child," touring with the company in Russia and Poland also in 1987. He was a featured performer at the General Assembly of the United Nations in New York for the International Day of Peace. In 1991 Chic gave benefit concerts for the United Nations Human Rights Center in Geneva and in 1992 a benefit for relief to Somalia, also in Geneva. In 1999, Chic returned to Geneva as a featured artist for the United Nations Awards Celebration honoring indigenous care-givers. Chic composed the music and starred in the off-Broadway hit show, "Spunk," adapted by George C. Wolfe from three short stories by Zora Neale Hurston and performed at the New York Shakespeare Festival, The Crossroads Theater in New Jersey, The Royal Court in London, The Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, The Berkeley and Seattle Repertory Theaters and The Oregon Shakespeare Festival. He received a 1990 Audelco Award and a 1992 NAACP Theater Arts Award for his music and performance in "Spunk." Chic also composed the music for "Permutations," a segment of PBS's "Great Performances" presentation of George C. Wolfe's "The Colored Museum." In 1994, Chic composed the score and starred in the Berkeley Repertory Theater's production of "The Caucasian Chalk Circle." He was a contributing author, performer and musical arranger for the Denver Center Theater Company's "It Ain't Nothin' But The Blues" in 1995. In the year 2000, Chic composed the score for the Alabama Shakespeare Festival's world premiere of "A Lesson Before Dying." ...
