| | String Quartet Tribute To The Mars Volta CD
Violin, viola, cello, bass, percussion, and hints of programming interpret the work of the Mars Volta on this string quartet tribute to the restlessly experimental combo. It's one of the stronger entries in Vitamin's long-running tribute series, incorporating stretches of intimacy, sudden swooshes of melody, and even the insularity that with the Mars Volta usually threatens to overwhelm the listener. With no vocals and less instrumentation the songs are more concise, but because the originals teeter with imagination and detouring ideas there's plenty for the musicians to work with. They're free to draw inspiration from the Mars Volta, to use them as a starting point, instead of just shoehorning rock & roll into chamber music shoes. ~ Johnny Loftus

At the precise moment when a corporate reshuffling and a reduced roster led to death knells in the press for Columbia Records' jazz division, Chris Botti was signing on after three albums at rival Verve, the jazz arm of Universal. Along with Bela Fleck, poached from Warner Bros., Botti seemed to represent the new lean-and-mean Columbia Jazz, an eclectic, contemporary artist with considerable crossover potential to go with his jazz legitimacy. While the dominant sound on Botti's Columbia debut is naturally his haunting, ...

String Quartet Tribute To The Mars Volta CD music
$6.75 
Contains 7 previously unreleased tracks from the studio sessions for the unissued album AGAINST THE WALL recorded in January 1988 and a previously unreleased demo.
Domanico, Brian Garafalo (bass); Larrie London, John Robinson, Moyes Lucas, Jr., Craig Krampf (drums); Tony Brock (drum programming).
This 2006 collection presents many of the finest solo tunes by Journey's powerhouse vocalist, Steve Perry. In addition to drawing from his successful debut, STREET TALK (1983), which yielded the dramatic hit single "Oh Sherrie," and the largely overlooked FOR THE LOVE OF STRANGE MEDICINE ('94), the anthology features tracks that didn't make it onto any official Perry albums, including the smooth ballad "Against the Wall" and "Don't Fight It," his rocked-out '82 collaboration with Kenny Loggins.
Former Journey bandmate Jonathan Cain once observed that "God gave Steve a voice that rings like a bell," neatly encapsulating this AOR vet's lasting appeal. His arrival in Journey took the band from obscurity to superstardom, and their attempt to carry on with another singer in the wake of his departure inspires fond thoughts of the post-Jim Morrison Doors. A glance at the title makes it clear that Columbia's not shy about the marketing hook here. Hardcore Perry fans will jump at the chance to hear previously unavailable tracks like "Summer of Luv" and the demo of "If You Need Me, Call Me." Likewise, newbies will be drawn to the perfect pop of "Oh Sherrie" and "Foolish Heart." The connecting thread, Perry's almost unjustly soulful voice, is the distinctive, defining element in these smooth, radio-ready arrangements.
At the time that Columbia Records released Steve Perry's Greatest Hits + Five Unreleased, the former Journey lead singer had scored exactly one Top Ten hit as a solo artist ("Oh Sherrie") and placed four other songs in the Top 40, one of which ("Foolish Heart") reached the Top Ten of the adult contemporary charts. It was not the sort of record that would seem to justify the release of a 17-track hits collection. In addition to the hits, the set included assorted album tracks from Perry's two solo albums, Street Talk (1984) and For the Love of Strange Medicine (1994); a couple ...
