Take a dash of most '80s dance style you can name from electro to hip-hop, from new romantic to the cheap Casio beats of early dancehall, mix and match them wildly, and you pretty much have funk carioca. Having grown up in the favelas, or slums of Rio de Janeiro (hence the name carioca), it has started to find a more global audience. This, the first compilation of the style, shows it in all its ragged glory and silliness. Yes, it does sound odd to many ears, simply because everything is so familiar -- but also so strange, like Alice down the rabbit hole. Above all, it's fun. Unless you understand Portuguese, you won't have a clue what they're shouting -- and it is a shout, not rapping or singing -- but it doesn't matter. The exuberance communicates, whether in cheap synthesized horn riffs or rattling percussion. MC Batata, one of the elders of the new funk, rips it up on "Feira de Acari," but he's only one of many represented here. This is the first wave, and it remains to be seen whether it will really take off outside Brazil. But if you want a crash course in the '80s as if it had been through a blender -- as well as something that's just fun to dance to -- this is it. ~ Chris Nickson

THE EMINEM SHOW was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Award for Album Of The Year. "Without Me" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Record Of The Year and Best Male Rap Solo Performance. This deluxe limited edition includes a bonus DVD containing previously unreleased footage and interview with Eminem. As one of the most controversial figures in hip-hop history, Eminem can be forgiven for being somewhat self-obsessed. THE EMINEM SHOW's opening cut "White America" sums up the notorious rapper's self-defense by keenly observing that while the color of his skin has something to do with his widespread popularity it's also the reason his lyrics are examined so scrupulously by critics who otherwise wouldn't bother. ...

CD $11.69  5 stars Top 500
The Wood Brothers' debut album is a tense and hushed affair full of weighted lyrics peppered with words like truth, faith, spirit, and soul and more angels than you can shake a stick at, and each song seems tipped right at the edge of indecision and confusion. These are largely Oliver Wood's songs, with his brother Chris Wood (of Medeski, Martin & Wood) adding bass and backing vocals and Kenny Wollesen bringing light drums and percussion to five tracks. Oliver seems frozen in a kind of perpetual spiritual dilemma on these tracks, but what keeps the best of these songs from being exercises in self-centered ...
