(2 Customer Reviews)
Travis's first major label album (after an independently released live set) almost single-handedly yanked commercial country out of its '80s URBAN COWBOY crossover phase and back to the music's rural roots. Even better, it introduced a singer who mixed George Jones' clench-jawed intensity with hints of his idols Lefty Frizzell and Merle Haggard. Beautifully produced by Klye Lehning, it's an all but perfect mixture of cheating songs ("Reasons I Cheat") and weepers (like "1982" and "The Other Hand" - guess what's on it?) and up-tempo neo-honky-tonkers ("There'll Always Be a Honky Tonk Somewhere"). A great debut.

| | Robert Wyatt Comicopera CD (2007)
Storms Of Life
$12.95 As with all of his '00s output, Wyatt trades in the exploratory psych-prog of his early '70s work in favor of elegant and ornate jazz arrangements. His voice--an unsung treasure of British rock--remains the centering constant here, as Wyatt's orchestrations swing from the mellow and alluring ("Just As You Are" and "You You") to the disquieting ("Fragment" and "Cancion de Julieta," which also find Wyatt abandoning English in favor of Spanish and Italian lyrics). While Wyatt's conceptual ambitions might be hard to grasp in detail, the tracks haunt and never need elaboration, placing COMIC OPERA amongst ...
| | Patty Loveless When Fallen Angels Fly CD (1994)
Storms Of Life
$6.05 How does an artist follow up not only the best album of their career but probably the best country album of the year? That was Patty Loveless' dilemma after her 1993 gold album, ONLY WHAT I FEEL. Fortunately, Loveless sets all minds to rest with the spectacular WHEN FALLEN ANGELS FLY.
Patty Loveless is one of country music's strongest vocalists, a favorite duet/harmony partner of many country artists, especially super-vocalist Vince Gill. Her voice is the mournful call of the hills of Kentucky, powerful and proud, yet expressive and vulnerable. She brings a spiritual and graceful depth to her material, especially the ballads, her forte. From the wrenching "You Don't Even Know Who I Am" to the hushed "Over My Shoulder" Loveless offers pristine classics, and once again hits her artistic zenith. Then she switches gears and has fun with the novelty hit "I ...
| | Lester Flatt Foggy Mountain Jamboree CD (1957)
Storms Of Life
$5.95 This is the first CD release of FOGGY MOUNTAIN JAMBOREE, which was the first full-length bluegrass album ever released.
This 1957 long-player (bluegrass, or "mountain music" as it was often called then, had mostly been the province of 78s) collects 12 top-notch cuts by the group many consider to be bluegrass's all-time finest. Earl Scruggs and Lester Flatt met in Bill Monroe's band in the mid-'40s, where they helped Monroe pioneer the classic bluegrass sound, then later left Monroe to form their own group, with Scruggs's blazing banjo leads and Flatt's flat-picking guitar lines and steady tenor taking the spotlight. ...
| | Randy Travis Always & Forever CD (1987)
Storms Of Life
$6.05 Travis's sophomore album for Warners was an enormous hit (five million copies sold its first year) and with good reason. It stayed in the same neo-traditionalist vein of STORMS OF LIFE, with a similar mix of cry in your beer weepers and up-tempo neo-honky-tonk workouts, but with even better crafted ...

| | Alysha Brooke Nuthin' But A Chevy CD (2004)
Storms Of Life
$11.39 Alysha Brooke has been performing on stage since she was three years old. By the age of nine she had been dancing for six years and acting for three, and had begun taking singing lessons. In that same year, her family decided to move to a rural 10-acre home on the outskirts of town. This move to the country would prove to set the stage for all that was to follow. As the second youngest in a family of seven daughters (and currently an aunt 14 times over), there was never a quiet moment in Alysha's house. But Alysha took to her new surroundings with a great ...
