| | Girl for Samson 12 CD Girl for Samson Discography of CDs
Girl for Samson is the name of an organization that has three music-making Homo sapiens as members. Let's call the organization a "band" and the three Homo sapiens "musicians". Each musician's body contains about the same percentage of water as the general population of humans on this planet. In fact, your body may contain water that was once in our body. The reverse could also be true. We also may be sporting water that was once useful to you. You are practically the 4th Girl."Peteena Says" launches Girl For Samson's lively discourse on the subject of circles, cycles and souls. The 12 songs are smart, hooky and are delivered in a variety of styles that include frantic waltzes, clanging pop and psychedelic marches. In addition to the traditional rock and roll gear the band has also packed horns, water splashes, accordions, synths, fish, drum loops, percussive toys, bells and a melotron for this expedition. The trio artfully tips their hats to their influences while still sounding unique and relevant.Customer Reviews of "12"A Fantastic CD i, September 23, 2005Reviewer: Teresa (Lawrence, KS) Girl for Samson has a unique addictive sound that entices you for more. Not only are they original in their works, their musical talents are endless. I recommend this CD for anyone that wants to sit back and have a good time while listening to upbeat music that will make you smile. Not your "Dime a Dozen" album., September 22, 2005Reviewer: Ash Can (Arkansas)Girl for Samson offers a refreshing drink in a parched landsape with "12." The shadow in the lyrics and musical patterns will cling to you long after you've turned it off and you'll hear something new the next time you play it. Fantastic effort by this KC band. A refreshing step away from everyday alternative/pop, August 26, 2005Reviewer: modestrachel (Missouri) This album is unlike many of the albums in my collection. The assortment of songs vary in tone and mood, making an interesting listening experience. Wondering when we will see more...A dozen fun tunes, August 22, 2005Reviewer: Graeme Walker (Ontario, Canada)With its swift tempo, mood and style changes throughout, Girl For Samson's debut CD is a nice little diamond in the current 'mine full of dirt' that is the music industry. GFS seem to capture the fun spirit of 60's and 80's rock with their tuneful hooks, and brave exploration of eclectic musical styles. Not everything works but when it does - it's very cool. 'Peteena', 'Always' and 'Noggin/ Babble' all grabbed me right away with their catchy refrains. I dare anyone to listen to this Cd and not find themselves humming 'Noggin' the next day.... Positively not mainstream but definitely worth a listen or 12. Interesting Album - * * *, August 21, 2005Reviewer: "Brenda" (OK) I found the variety of styles on this record very entertaining. Kind of a smorgasboard of 60s-80s rock. The songs and performances are very good though the production at times seems a little muddy. Also, the album seems to start with a bang, wander around in the middle and then finish strong. Overall a fun album and I love the cover!liked it, August 13, 2005Reviewer: Eric Simmons (New York, Ny)The album's got it's share of stinkers but when these guys are on, they're matching wits with "the white album" and "midnight vultures." Was worth sitting through to find my favs. Avoid the tune "delerious," program "flap" into your ipod. strident.Fascinating Music, August 10, 2005Reviewer: Aimee (Kansas City, MO)This album is an unexpected breath of fresh air in the current music scene. I heard one of the tracks from this album on a local radio station, so I took a chance in ordering it, and I love it. The songs are catchy and the lyrics are memorable. This album has an array of song styles and two vocalists; I've listened to it in my car from tracks 1-12 numerous times and have not had the urge to change cds. I'd highly recommend this cd to anyone willing to take a chance on new music. 12 Music | List Price | $12.00 (You save $1.35) | | Category | Rock/Pop Albums, Pop CDs | | Label | Girl for Samson | | Orig Year | 2004 | | CD Universe Part number | 7151498 | | Catalog number | 16372 | | Discs | 1 | | Release Date | Oct 05, 2004 | | Studio/Live | Studio | | Mono/Stereo | Stereo | | Recording Time | 37 minutes |

 $11.18    
CHRISTMAS ON MARS might be the Flaming Lips' bona fide sci-fi epic, but EMBRYONIC is the musical equivalent of the final scenes of 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY: transformative chaos that results in a new start. From THE SOFT BULLETIN onward, the Lips seemed focused on tidying the loose ends of their earlier work, almost to the point of constraining themselves. Their wilder side is unleashed on Embryonic's 18 tracks, and the band sounds more off-the-cuff than it has in years -- some tracks are barely longer than snippets, others are rangy epics, and it all holds together so organically that listeners might ...

Reinvention, the latest release from Eric Baines, is his most honest work to date. A complete and total departure from his earlier recordings, it marks the first time he's played guitar on a record, and used the guitar, as opposed to the keyboard, as his primary writing instrument. Baines explains, "Most of these tunes came out of an honest exploration of myself and a search for the true me. I tried to stay true to that and write songs that I enjoy listening to and enjoy playing."Baines called on his closest friends and colleagues (many of whom helped inspire the writing of the record) to play his music and bring it to life in the studio. The album features Gary Patrick, Gene Siegel, and Bobby Williams on guitar, Fred Mandel and Noriko Olling on keyboards and Chad Wright on drums. There are also two tracks co-written with Baines' writing partner, Kim Wimmer. The entire album was conceived and written on the road and in hotels all over the world from Europe to Japan and all over the U.S...even recording and mixing some of the tracks in hotel rooms in Las Vegas, NV. The concept of 'baggage' that recurs throughout the record has multiple layers of meaning.HISTORYEric Baines has been playing guitar since he was 7 years old. It was the first instrument that he ever picked up. His dad gave him lessons and young Eric played and sang songs from the family's collection of fake books that were filled with songs from the Beatles, the Stones and all kinds of rock from the 60s. It was a great way to learn and inspired him to begin writing his own songs early-on.He then began playing piano, trumpet and percussion. A gifted drummer and natural teacher, he taught marching percussion for his former high school for 9 years.Another instrument he had picked up was the bass guitar which would become his primary instrument and means of making a living for years to come. Baines went to Berklee College of Music as a bass player and vocalist. The lure of paying gigs was strong, however, and he left Berklee after three semesters to begin working as a professional musician. He started his own band called "The Fringe" which enjoyed moderate success, releasing a CD, playing on T.V. and radio, and touring the country.Baines then joined a blues band in Denver and began working as a sideman playing bass and singing. After a few years of this he signed on for a gig with contemporary jazz saxophone player Nelson Rangell which started his career in smooth jazz and R&B. After a few years of playing with Nelson, honing his bass playing skills and singing, he finally made the move to swim with the big fish in LA.He quickly found himself playing with the likes of Keiko Matsui, Gregg Karukas, Lee Ritenour and many other great musicians and artists but still didn't feel like he was quite on track. He offers, "I wasn't completely satisfied musically. I was traveling the world and making money but still missing something."He then met guitar player Gary Patrick ...
