| | Machine Gun Fellatio Bring It On CD - Import Machine Gun Fellatio Discography of CDs
Racy Australian band Machine Gun Fellatio delivers another set of provacatively titled alternative tracks with this album. BRING IT ON features songs including "Mutha Fukka On A Motorcycle," "Horny Blonde Forty," and "Butter My Arse With A Pigeon."
From the opening track, "100 Fresh Disciples," in which lead singer Pinky Beecroft imagines himself the leader of a brainwashed sect over a hip-hop beat and guitar solo, Machine Gun Fellatio know that they're destined for cult success. Perhaps it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Bring It On! has the MOR-defying funky kinkiness of early Prince enjoying a ménage à trois with dance music and dirty rock & roll. Not-quite instrumentals like "Mojo Pumping," "Smooth Sexy Monkey," and "45" carry on the tradition of the doof-doof music that was only just going out of fashion at the time with simple vocal loops, sequenced drums, and bleep breaks. "Manywords" (later adapted into the theme song for Love Is a Four-Letter Word) is pure trip-hop reminiscent of Portishead when they sounded their most like a bedroom soundtrack. The band's obsession with sex peaks with "Horny Blonde Forty," which begins with Beecroft using his sultriest voice to read from imaginary personal ads where a "Horny blonde, 40, wants to do it all day/With a gun-toting, trigger-happy trannie named Kinky Renae," which was borrowed by the Whitlams for their hit single "No Aphrodisiac." Just like Ween, MGF had a gift for surprising you with an effective love song in the midst of their most oddball efforts. After an album of post-house-party alley sex, madness, weirdness, and drugs, they suddenly change tacks for "Unsent Letter." The song itself is a love letter never to be mailed, a straightforward bittersweet love song that sits comfortably among the best pop music Australian bands have ever produced. As Beecroft sang back at the beginning of the album, "I'm not afraid of romance," and he meant it. Underneath all the swearing and drug references that made songs like "Mutha Fukka on a Motorcycle" controversial alt-radio hits, there's genuine songcraft to MGF and it's on display in Bring It On! more than anywhere else in their brief discography. ~ Jody Macgregor
Sydney alternative funk act, best known for their single 'Mutha Fukka On A Motorcycle'. They raised the ire of student union leaders in Australia while performing at Melbourne University when singer Christa Hughes, aka KK Juggy, removed her top and cartwheeled around the stage. 'I'm a cabaret artist. I like to think of it as a bit of a tribute to the old-style burlesque performers', she said. Future shows at the university were cancelled.

Purchase Bring It On CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Gerald Wilson Detroit CD (2009)
Bring It On
$14.09 Detroit comprises a six-composition suite commissioned for the 2009 thirtieth anniversary Detroit International Jazz Festival, played in the studio with musicians from composer/arranger Gerald Wilson's Los Angeles home or New York City area. Curiously, there are no Motor City-based players on the disc, but the themes are based in certain locales from the industrial Midwestern City that has fallen on hard economic times but played a pivotal role in the development of Wilson's highly developed skills as a composer, arranger, and bandleader. A quite spirited and energetic music is heard here from the 90-year-old Wilson, whose charm and wit would rival anyone many decades his ...

Bring It On
$14.29 Brian Bromberg's fourth recording for the Artistry label, and first since they were acquired by the Mack Avenue label, is a fairly predictable program of contemporary jazz, commercial funk, and pop song covers, as well as uptown New York City R&B-type dance tunes that should appeal to the urban crowd. His prominent electric bass guitar always has a retro feel going back to Ralphe Armstrong, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke, Larry Graham, and James Jamerson, but retains a current-day feel that is still relevant, remaining skilled and precise as any bassist currently playing the amplified instrument. Many of these tracks include a horn section featuring Randy Brecker, Eric Marienthal, Gerald Albright, and Rick Braun, while ...
| | Marc Copland Night Whispers New York Trio Recordings: Volume 3 CD (2009) (Import) Germany
Bring It On
$16.39 From Erroll Garner to Cecil Taylor to Bill Evans, and from Chick Corea to Thelonious Monk, a wide variety of acoustic jazz pianists have thrived in the time-honored piano trio setting (piano, bass, and drums) over the years. It's a setting that has never gone out of style in jazz, and it's a setting that has served acoustic pianist Marc Copland well in his New York Trio Recordings series. The lineup has varied from one volume to the next; on New York Trio Recordings, Vol. 3: Night Whispers, Copland is joined by bassist Drew Gress and drummer Bill Stewart (whereas he was joined by bassist Gary Peacock and Stewart on Vol. 1 and by Peacock and drummer Paul Motian on Vol. 2). The ...

Bring It On
$12.05 Those who heard Chris Botti playing live in the 1990s realized just how much he had going for him as a trumpeter -- not only an appealing sound (sort of a combination of Miles Davis, Chet Baker, Art Farmer, and Chuck Mangione) and sizable chops, but also a lot of warmth and charisma. Botti's studio recordings, meanwhile, were decent, even though they fell short of his potential. Like his previous efforts, ...
