The UK pop/soul act Simply Red maintained a fairly low profile in the United States during the first few years of the 21st century, but that changed with the 2005 release of SIMPLIFIED. Issued on the Verve Forecast imprint, the album presents vocalist Mick Hucknall and company easing into new arrangements of their most well-known songs, including "Holding Back the Years," which gets a gentle, flamenco-inflected rendition. Hucknall's distinctive voice is in fine form here, and though the red-haired frontman unveils ...

| | Nancy Wilson From Broadway With Love/Tender Loving Care CD (2006) Import
Closer album
$10.49 
This two-fer CD brings together a pair of Nancy Wilson's mid-'60s dates for Capitol. Wilson's nuanced vocals might seem an awkward match with the over the top theatrics of the Great White Way, but From Broadway with Love bends the material to the singer's strengths, eschewing show tune dramatics in favor of subtle, atmospheric arrangements courtesy of Sid Feller. Wilson and Feller both approach the songs from a perspective rooted in traditional jazz and pop, gravitating to material that draws on the same inspirations -- moreover, selections like "He Loves Me" and "Here's That Rainy Day" play perfectly to the singer's remarkable capacity to articulate the exhilaration and heartache of romance. Tender Loving Care teams Wilson with arranger Billy May for a collection of romantic ballads and torch songs that capture the singer at her most sensuous. May's handling of songs like "Like Someone in Love" and "Try a Little Tenderness" boasts an uncommon sensitivity, deftly avoiding syrup and sentimentality in a far-ranging series of contexts that extend from lushly orchestral to starkly jazzy. And Wilson is at her best here, taking full command of the familiar songs and reanimating them with vocals that are bold, sophisticated, and daringly adult. ~ Jason Ankeny
2-on-1. From Broadway With Love contains a dozen great classics from the Broadway show stage. This album features orchestrations which fall into three distinctive styles and as usual Nancy Wilson gives all of these songs her very own treatment. From the no holds barred big band version of 'Hello Dolly' to the swinging ...
| | V I P's Complete V.I.P.S. CD (2006) (Import) Remastered; Germany
Closer CD music
$21.05
Modern mathematics isn't quite capable of counting how many R&B bands existed in Great Britain during the 1960s, but like a significant number of them, the V.I.P.s were destined to win greater recognition after they called it quits than while they were together. The final version of the V.I.P.s evolved into Spooky Tooth, who enjoyed chart success in both Europe and the United States during their late-'60s/early-'70s heyday, while guitarist Luther Grosvenor became a member of Mott the Hoople after changing his name to Ariel Bender (he also received some less than flattering reviews from several young women in the documentary Groupies, but that's another story). Given their résumé and the obscurity of their catalog, one might not expect much from The Complete V.I.P.s, but this double-disc compilation makes it clear this band was better than the average gathering of blues-wailing Brits. Lead singer Mike Harrison's voice was strong and emotive enough to carry material like "Smokestack Lightning" and "Straight Down to the Bottom" with style, guitarists Frank Kenyon and Jimmy Henshaw (the latter of whom was later replaced by Grosvenor) played with tough, no-frills menace, and bassist Alf "Greg" Ridley and drummer Walter Johnstone (later replaced by Mike Kellie) held down the rhythm with a solid, potent groove. The Complete V.I.P.s, true to its title, collects everything the band released between 1964 and 1967 -- one single each for RCA, CBS, and Phillips; two 45s for Island; two three-song EPs for French Fontana; and a pair of stereo mixes from a Fontana compilation -- along with an impressive live set recorded for German radio and two unreleased tracks. If the V.I.P.s aren't enough to make anyone ...

Closer CD music
$10.15
A firecracker transplanted from Northern Virginia Suburbs to Raleigh NC, Arielle Bryant is like fresh air in your stereo - a young, new voice for the singer-songwriter genre. A true force of nature, Arielle is known on the local bar-and-coffee-shop circuit as not only a singer-songwriter but a sassy entertainer. Inspired by such varying artists and Blink 182 and Jason Mraz, Arielle taught herself to sing and play guitar, infusing her music with poetry that speaks volumes of her intellect and passion. Now channeling folk songstress Dar Williams and embracing a pop-savvy resonant of Jewel's early records, Arielle Bryant is ready to be revealed with the release of her first EP. "I am the Lemon" oozes whimsy and desire, rapture and longing. It is at once teenage heartbreak, a one-night stand, and marital bliss - a range of emotions the young Arielle has no right to express, but which she does with strength and grace. Her music is like a hug from a best friend, a cold glass of sweet tea (with ...
