Although recorded largely in 2004, it took Bubblecore nearly two years to release Peoples, and it was well worth the wait. For this record, Doug Scharin recorded yet again with another retooled version of HiM's lineup, this time featuring a large list of guest appearances and contributors. Joshua LaRue returns from the previous incarnation to handle guitar duties, as does Adam Pierce, who handles vocals as well as vibraphone, marimba, and other instruments. The band confidently breezes from one tune to the next, touching on sounds that wouldn't be out of place on albums from their contemporaries like Stereolab and the Sea and Cake, with a little bit of Talking Heads thrown in for good measure. The emphasis on vibraphone and marimba this time around certainly helps to give a stylish flair to the very well-crafted compositions, and the group focuses more on strong arrangements than freewheeling, polyrhythmic jams. While the similarities to its predecessor, the excellent Many in High Places Are Not Well, are evident, the band also makes great strides in evolving its sound from one record to the next; something that more bands in the post-rock subset woefully neglect to do. ~ Rob Theakston

Don't be fooled, this is not the Him you may think it is. This Him is not Vile Valo.

Who cares this is not Vile Valo. It's a great album. The fact that you did not do research before purchasing does not make this a bad album.

John Mayer Battle Studies CD  (2009)

Peoples album
CD $11.18  SALE 3 stars Top 100
It's no secret that John Mayer is a 21st Century Fox, wining and dining women all through tabloid headlines, so it's about time he delivered an album that traded upon his loverman persona -- and Battle Studies is that record in spades. Retaining more than a modicum of the slick, soul-blues undertones of Continuum, Mayer fashions a modern groove album, a record that maintains a smooth seductive vibe so thoroughly it spills into a one-man band cover of "Crossroads." Mayer remains somewhat of a disciple of Slowhand, but he shows an unusual interest in the big AOR stylings of Journeyman, along with Stevie Ray Vaughan's In Step, creating a coolly ...

Tom Petty Live Anthology CDs  (2009)

CD $19.34  SALE Top 100
It's a commonly held opinion among fans and band alike that Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' lone live album, 1986's Pack Up the Plantation, didn't quite capture the group at its peak, so there has been a long-standing need for another live set, which 2009's Live Anthology finally provides. Like its closest cousin, Bruce Springsteen's Live 1975-1985, Live Anthology almost overcompensates for the long wait by offering almost too much music, cherrypicking highlights from 1978 to 2007. In its simplest incarnation, Live Anthology is a super-affordable, four-disc box set running 48 ...

Leona Lewis Echo CD  (2009)

Peoples music CDs
CD $11.18  SALE 2 stars Top 100
The goal of Leona Lewis' 2007 debut, Spirit, was to prove that an X Factor winner could be a phenomenon not just in the U.K., but in the rest of the world. The goal of her second album, 2009's Echo, is to prove that success was no fluke, to build upon "Bleeding Love" and turn Lewis into an actual diva. Certainly, Echo in any of its incarnations -- its song listings are tailored for individual markets, with the U.K. getting a cover of Oasis' "Stop Crying Your Heart Out," while the U.S. gets a second song co-written by Justin Timberlake -- uses the chilly, synthesized "Bleeding Love" as its foundation, creating a sheet of sound equal parts Euro-pop and modern American R&B. As opposed to the often-stuffy Spirit, this ...

WCBS FM-101: Great Ladies Of Rock & Roll-The 70'S
WCBS FM-101: Great Ladies Of Rock & Roll-The 70'S CD  (2002)

Peoples music CDs
CD $12.25  4 stars Audio Samples
This CD was packaged for and promoted by WJMK, Chicago, Illinois. This CD was packaged for and promoted by WSNI, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Great Ladies of Rock & Roll The '70s offers 25 tracks of the best female-fronted pop music during a decade when soul was gradually giving way to disco. Any compiler would be hard-pressed to outdo the selection here, which includes a parade of top tunes: Jean Knight's "Mr. Big Stuff," LaBelle's "Lady Marmalade," Gladys Knight & the Pips' "Midnight Train to Georgia," Blondie's "Heart of Glass," Minnie Riperton's "Lovin' You," and more (and yes, they are the original recordings). As often happens, Collectables' focus on sound quality isn't top-rate, but for the low price this one is usually offered for, it's difficult to complain too much. ~ John Bush The title is Great Ladies of Rock & Roll: The 70's, but compiler Joe McCoy of New York oldies radio station WCBS-FM must have gotten the wrong message and thought it was supposed to be "Great Ladies of Disco & Soul: The 70s." True, there are some token ladies who don't fit into those categories -- Melissa Manchester, Bonnie Tyler, Nicolette Larson, Linda Rondstadt -- but they are the anomalies in this 23-song collection of R&B and dance records with female vocals from the '70s. McCoy seems to ...

CD $13.79  Audio Samples
Brazilian singer-songwriter and Tropicalia pioneer Gilberto Gil made his self-titled 1971 album during the period when he and compatriot Caetano Veloso were political exiles in England. Like Veloso's contemporaneous work, the album is balanced between hippie-era optimism and a melancholy longing for home (the latter exemplified most obviously in a cover of the Blind Faith song "Can't Find My Way Home"). A mostly acoustic affair (except for the full-band rave-up of the tongue-in-cheek "Crazy Pop Rock"), the album mixes modified bossa nova rhythms with folk-rock influences and a pronounced psychedelic side (see "Three Mushrooms" and the bonus-track live versions of Hendrix and Beatles tunes). By 1968, the Brazilian Tropicalia movement was well under way. Young upstarts like the genre-bending Os Mutantes and the provocative chanteuse Gal Costa had released landmark full-lengths, while Jorge Ben, the elder statesman of Brazilian pop, demonstrated his support of Tropicalia with the lush, psychedelic JORGE BEN. Also in 1968, Gilberto Gil released his second full-length, GILBERTO GIL (FREVO RASGADO), a multi-hued concoction that married samba rhythms to the far-out sonic experimentation then being pioneered by Pink Floyd and the Beatles.
