Put together by Abba's own Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroup's songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and she's trying to identify which of three men is her father. That's about it. Wisely, the musical doesn't mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of them performed by a man (it works amazingly well). Abba fans will jump on this import of the London production, but traditional fans of musical theater should consider it as well. After all, Andersson and Ulvaeus's songs have always felt as if they were more than isolated pop gems and actually belonged to a longer narrative. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

I have not stopped playing this cd. It is just great! It makes any trip in my car most enjoyable Happy I bought it!

Mamma Mia Musical CD.......2007-03-21

This is a grand list of songs from the original musical when it was first introduced in England. The songs from ABBA are very recognizable even if you haven't seen the show. But, making a trip to NY to see the Broadway production is a plus. ENJOY!

JUST GREAT MUSIC.......2007-03-08

I RECENTLY SAW THE SHOW MAMMA MIA IN LAS VEGAS. ALWAYS LIKES THE MUSIC OF ABBA, AND THOUGH THE PLOT WAS THIN, THE MUSIC WAS WELL PERFORMED. IN THIS PARTICULAR ALBUM, THE ENGLISH ACCENTS WERE A BIT MUCH, BUT THE SONGS WERE GREAT. ALL I CAN SAY IS THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC, ABBA.

Mamma Mia.......2007-01-29

Every time I hear the music and songs it brings back memories of seeing the Broadway Show

Not good at all.......2007-01-09

This is not what we wanted. The British accents throw it was off. We just saw it in NY and this is not what we were looking for.

Since Toby Keith's commercial success and canny image manipulation show how shrewd he is, perhaps the best explanation for songs as lackluster as "Note to Self" (a generic Rolling Stones arrangement with a hokey lyric) and "Runnin' Block" (about bedding an unattractive woman for the benefit of a buddy) are either laziness or pandering. On White Trash with Money, his first release on his own Show Dog imprint (and without longtime producer James Stroud), Keith occasionally appears to be stretching himself--on the string-laden balladry of "A Little Too Late," the tender "Crash Here Tonight," and perhaps his finest vocal performance to date on "Too Far This Time"--but often seems to be coasting. "Get Drunk and Be Somebody," "Grain of Salt," and "Brand-New Bow" are never less (and little more) than dumb fun, while "Can't Buy You Money" is a clever twist on the "money can't buy you love" adage. The most contentious track here, "Ain't No Right Way," is just waving a red flag at those who refuse to reduce complex issues to simple black-and-white. Keith insists that he only writes as many songs as he needs to record; this time, some quality control might have required writing a few more. --Don McLeese

Another fiasco.......2007-07-23

I gave it one star because it is just not possible to give less.
Toby Keith goes from bad to worse. I cannot buy his music even if they paid me to do such.

Disappointment.......2007-04-16

I have generally really enjoyed Toby Keith in the past. I respect his integrity and songwriting skills, but this album diappoints. At it's best, it offers little in the way of new sounds, new ideas, or new flavors. At it's worst, it's dim and, in some cases offensive. None of these songs excited me (like "Beer For My Horses" or "Let's Talk About Me" or wooed me like "I Love This Bar" or "Wish I Didn't Know".

Songs like "Running Block" are downright offensive (and no, I'm not overweight, I just have compassion).

obviously great! .......2007-02-06

music is great or we wouldnt have bought the cd in the first place :)

Machismo Music.......2007-01-28

Toby Keith is cheeky without being arrogant. I like his voice. His music has a baseline brass knuckle truth. I have a friend that I think of every time I hear the the song "I love this bar" Toby Keith has no pretentions to "air"

Toby does it again.......2007-01-21

Best of the best for TK!!! This is the first of many albums that Show Dog will produce! If in doubt, BUY IT!!

Few young bands have embraced classic rock as fully as the Black Crowes. Their debut album features a bar-band stomp rooted in the back catalogs of the Rolling Stones, Free, the Faces, any number of early-'70s hard rockers. The secret of their success has been singer Chris Robinson's lanky rock-star poses matched with a voice as raw as whisky and as inviting as velvet. Add a healthy rhythm section accentuated by producer (and Rick Rubin protégé) George Drakoulias and you've got the dynamic shuffle of their hits ("Jealous Again" and the title track). While the band clearly likes to party, they're even more convincing as the Sunday-morning comedown of "She Talks to Angels." --Rob O'Connor

Some of the best music and singing I have ever encountered. There is a little something for all tastes in this album. I couldn't have been any happier finding it at Amazon. I had looked all over for years. Paula

Great Debut!.......2007-03-19

If you are a fan of blues based rock, this CD is for you. If you are learning about the BLACK CROWES for the first time, this CD is for you. To me this is the best BLACK CROWES CD and it should be listed as a greatest hits record for all of the good songs. 17 years after its release, I still enjoy this one.

THE BLACK CROWES $HAKE YOUR MONEY MAKER WITH THEIR DEBUT ALBUM........2007-02-06

Readers and reviewers, I will be writing a review on the legendary debut album entitled "$HAKE YOUR MONEY MAKER" by one of Rock's greatest bands and one of America's favorite sons. I give you one of Georgia's pride and joy's, THE BLACK CROWES. This legendary album was originally released in 1990 on Compact Disc on the Def American Recordings Records label. As always, if I hear any new additional information concerning this legendary debut album or the artist, I will edit this review immediately so that you the consumer will get the best informative and most accurate review possible.

THE BLACK CROWES have always fascinated me. Like GUNS N' ROSES, THE BLACK CROWES seemed to be on the right track of emulating great legendary bands such as THE ROLLING STONES and AEROSMITH. For a while, it even seemed possible that a band like THE BLACK CROWES could even sound better than THE STONES and AEROSMITH. When brothers Chris Robinson on lead vocals and Rich Robinson on lead guitar met up and joined forces with Jeff Cease on rhythm guitar, Steve Gorman on drums and Johnny Colt on bass, THE BLACK CROWES were born and Rock n' Roll was in for a treat and a big surprise. THE BLACK CROWES frontman and lead singer Chris Robinson would attempt in becoming Rock's next big sex symbol on stage and give you dance moves that would rival and compare to that of Jagger and Tyler. As time went by, Robinson has successfully achieved and accomplished this difficult task. To add more, Robinson sings and belts his songs with such extreme power and emotion, that he gives the music an additional kick and climatic power that makes you feel like you are listening to real Rock n' Roll. THE BLACK CROWES style of music brings back the legendary Rock n' Roll music of its glorious past. THE CROWES love to jam to the Blues sound and the music of their southern rock roots. When THE BLACK CROWES recorded their debut album, it was history repeating itself only this time, the music was a more "in your face" type style and far more improved. In my opinion, "$HAKE YOUR MONEY MAKER" is a well made album.

I will list and briefly review all of the song tracks in their original exact running order as follows: (1.) "Twice As Hard," (This is a very enjoyable song. This song has a mixture of the Blues and Southern Rock music. I love the way Rich and Jeff play their guitars in this one. They make their guitars scream and harmonize beautifully together like the way guitars were meant to sound like, breathtaking. Chris sings this song with such raw power and energy that he shakes this song to its very foundations and bares its roots.) (2.) "Jealous Again," (This is another well recorded Rocker that has some feel of life to it and a good beat that will give you tingles and goose bumps all over your body and make you want to dance.) (3.) "Sister Luck," (This is another well recorded slow Rocker. In my opinion, this song sounds alot like a ROLLING STONES song. Rich and Jeff do not play their guitars hard in the beginning, but they do make up for it by stepping it up and take the music into the next level or phase by daring to grind their guitars in your face with their blistering playing. This song sounds beautiful. Chris sings and belts this song out like a blues singer.) (4.) "Could I've Been So Blind," (This is another powerful Rocker that dares to Rock in your face. Rich and Jeff play guitars so well together that its like a perfect Rock n' Roll marriage made in heaven. Chris sings this Rocker with such power and emotion that he gives this Rocker alot of additional raw energy resulting in making this Rocker a whole lot better.) (5.) "Seeing Things," (This is a well recorded slow Rocker which shows the raw power and blistering lead vocals of Chris Robinson. Chris belts out this slow Rocker like he is singing the Blues. Chris actually makes you feel this slow Rocker along with him. Chris dares to bare the roots of this slow Rocker to its knees before your very eyes. This slow Rocker will leave you breathless and begging for more.) (6.) "Hard To handle," (Ah yes, this song track is quite simply, my most favorite Rocker on this whole album. This Rocker definitely kicks a*s. This is REAL Rock n' Roll the way it was meant to sound. You have to hear this one to believe it. Rich and Jeff let their guitars run loose for this Rocker. Chris sings and belts this Rocker the way a frontman is supposed to rule a Rocker.) (7.) "Thick n' Thin," (This is another well recorded Southern Rocker that kicks a*s. Rich and Jeff play their guitars like they are daring to push the limits of their playing. Chris sings this song like he is willing to help push Rich and Jeff beyond their limits.) (8.) "She Talks To Angels," (This is a beautiful acoustic turned slow Rocker. Rich and Jeff play their acoustic guitars like a warm summer breeze. Their acoustic sound is so magical and heavenly that it sounds and feels like a soft warm wind in the countryside where the hills and mountains echo its whining lifeforce.) (9.) "Struttin' Blues," (This is another well recorded Blues Rocker that kicks a*s. Chris sings this song with such raw power and emotion that he can make his blistering lead vocals ricochet and echo off of Rich's and Jeff's guitars. With this in mind, Rich and Jeff make their guitars whine and screech like there is no tomorrow.) (10.) "Stare It Cold" (Again, this is another well recorded Blues Rocker that kicks a*s. Rich and Jeff NEVER let up in this Blues Rocker. I bet that their guitars were tired and screaming for rest after this album was finished. Chris' microphone must be filled with enough electricity due to the raw energy that ran through it.) and (11.) "Unidentified song." (This acoustic Blues number clocks in about one minute and seven seconds. This acoustic Blues song sounds pretty good but it was probably an aftermath or epilogue following the completion of this dynamic album.) Overall, "$HAKE YOUR MONEY MAKER" is a well recorded album that kicks a*s.

I would like to highly recommend that everyone purchase this legendary album to own as a valuable and important part of their own personal music collection. This legendary debut album will definitely stand the test of time and will always be around to be enjoyed, appreciated and cherished for many years to come, NOW AND FOREVER.

In closing, THE BLACK CROWES have performed with their idols such as THE ROLLING STONES, AEROSMITH and JIMMY PAGE. However, THE BLACK CROWES have had their shares of ups and downs and highs and lows throughout their whole career. THE BLACK CROWES broke up temporarily in the new millennium following the get together of JIMMY PAGE & THE BLACK CROWES. It appears that the Robinson brothers have been fighting and duking it out for many years like that of the Davies brothers of THE KINKS. However, The Robinson brothers would settle down. Chris Robinson's well publicized marriage and divorce to actress Kate Hudson would bring the Robinson brothers back together again and THE BLACK CROWES are in the process of releasing their first new studio album in five years. This new album should be out sometime in 2007. I really do hope that THE BLACK CROWES will stay together permanently this time. Rock n' Roll needs a great band like THE BLACK CROWES to remind Rock n' Roll of it glorious roots in order for Rock n' Roll to breathe and survive. And as the saying goes, "AND THE REST IS ROCK N ROLL HISTORY," am I wrong? So here's to you Chris, Rich, Jeff, Steve and Johnny. THE BLACK CROWES RULES. Keep Persevering. Keep The Faith. Keep On Rockin'. Thanks for reading my review and I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it for your reading pleasure. I also hope that you will read all of my other reviews in the near future when time permits. Long Live Rock n' Roll. Rock out always and take it easy. Forever in Rock, John L.

Great album.......2006-02-05

This is a rare time that I've heard a complete album since the days of the early Van Halen albums. Every track on here is GOOD.

What makes The Black Crowes so great to me is that they combine my three favorite genres of rock, soul, and some blues and they do it well...

You got southern rock songs like Twice As Hard, Sister Luck, Thick n Thin... You got a great balld in She Talks to Angels... Hard rockers in Stare It Cold and Jealous Again... And you got possibly the most catchy song the 90's and that is the cover of Hard to Handle.

If you're a rock, soul and blues fan I suggest picking this album up... It might not be from a classic time period, but it sure is a classic album from start to finish.

Shake that money maker...........2006-01-15

The debut album by the Crowes, from 1990, has always been my favorite release by the Georgia rock band. They've had very good stuff since then, but to me, the first album just hasn't been topped.

It opens with "Twice as Hard", stating a message right from the beginning. This was a new band (then) that was here to show they knew how to rock and roll. In an age where hair bands hadn't died out yet, and grunge still had yet to hit the mainstream, the Crowes used their down to basics, Rolling Stones meet Skynyrd sound to hook fans everywhere of good, of fashioned blues rock.

The next song, "Jealous Again" was another hit, this one being the first single released. It is what set the tone and opened the way for the Crowes to build an instant fan base, that while isn't as strong today as it was in the early days, still remains.

Other hits are here, including "Hard to Handle", a revamped and kick ass version of the old Otis Redding song. Also found here is the ultimate ballad by the band, "She Talks To Angels". in an age where the power ballads were all over the airwaves, it was good to hear a true rock and roll force kick back and show the boys with makeup just how a blues tinged emotional rock and roll ballad is supposed to sound.

There isn't really a weak spot on the album, even once you get past the hits. "Sister Luck" has a bluesy, slow moving pulse....the kind that makes you wanna kick back and just savor your beer. "Struttin' Blues", "Could i Have Been So Blind", and "Seeing Things" all keep the album moving without letting up. "Thick and Thin" raises the decible level a little more, carrying on the pace set by "Hard to Handle", and right before they slow down into "She Talks to Angels". Finally, they top the disc off with "Stare it Cold", letting us all see that the Crowes weren't done yet.

All in all, if you like blues rock with an upbeat tone, or just good old time rock and roll, check this out. The Crowes use old formulas, but give them a fresh new flavor, and in the decade plus since the original release, have given rock fans a good alternative to the rest of the music scene.

Who would have thought back in the Hot Boys' early days that it'd be Lil Wayne who not simply survived his older peers like Juvenile, but ended up thriving by the time he reached Tha Carter, vol. 2, Weezy's fourth album. He sounds more confident as an MC--but more importantly, he wields a genuinely impressive array of different styles (as opposed to countless one-note rappers), from the chattering, thuggish "Fireman" and the languid style of "Oh No" to the emotional, introspective "Feel Me." In some ways, he actually bears a resemblance to rap's other major "Carter" (Jay-Z), not just in his increasingly effortless flow but in his assertiveness as a leader. In other words, he's matured in all the right ways as an artist. His album is still longer than it needs to be--22 tracks, 77 minutes--but even the filler is listenable while the best songs, like "Receipt," "Shooter," and "Hustler Musik" help establish this as one of 2005's last great albums. --Oliver Wang

Weezy finally comes correct.......2007-03-02

Although he was only 23 when this was released, Lil wayne has been puttin out album for 8 or 9 years, so his isn't a rookie. I honestly can say I've enver been impressed by what he has put out other than a song here and there, but after a bunch of good reviews and people tellin' me I had to check this out, I finally gave in, and I am very surprised. Claimin to be the best rapper alive (far from it but this album puts him heading in the right direction). I don't have many Cash Money albums (about 4), but this is a very ice album. With 19 songs, more than half are definitely worth checking out (#'s 1, 2, 4, 7, 9, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 22). Guests are minimal on 3 or 4 songs, and the production is good (that has been a constant with Cash Money releases thanx mostly to Manny Fresh). A must have album and one that shouldn't be slept on.

AAAAAAHHHH!!! MAKE IT STOP!!!!.......2007-02-16

NOTE: I am 16, I just don't want my own username.

Ladies and gentleman, what is the big deal about these untalented posers? It's like the record companies aren't even trying to hire talent - they just hire whoever so that more innocent folks will go to that same record company and get a record deal.

But it's not just that - EVERY black kid at my school (NOTE: I am not racist) praises this guy, and that's why I singled him out. It's not just him, people also go gaa-gaa over other untalented drivel like Bow Wow, Chris Brown (the most overrated "musician" of the 20th century), and T.I. Whenever a black person at my school doesn't listen to what's popular, they are listening to - you guessed it - this guy.

Honestly, what is so great about him. In order to be considered a good rapper, IMO, you must have good, intelligent lyrics and an excellent flow (Some examples are Chuck D and Del tha Funkee Homosapien). Wayne here has neither. I know what you're thinking: "But he freestyles!" Well, you want to know how "good" of a freestyler he is? Take this verse from "Fireman":

"Come on mama let the Carter make ya, toss you like a fruit salad, strawberry grape ya".

What kind of verse is that?! I could come up with something better in my sleep. In fact, check this out:

I walk through the valley of the ashes
the area where death and car crashes
Run abundant, I'm so pungent
All the girls like me, but despite the
Pain that I suffer, I got my luster
So I can shine and be divine
In a world of pain, a world of sorrow
There can be no tomorrow.

I came up with that in just 5 minutes. See how easy it is to rap? Now I'm gonna go take this rap and get my OWN record deal. Later... MUCH!!!!

The Mothers of Invention answer the sentiments of the suits, the suburb dwellers, and flower children of the 60's with a big fat raspberry. Considered by many to be the Mothers' (and some would say Zappa's) best album, We're Only in it for the Money deals with harsh subject matter in a seemingly glib and light-hearted fashion (eventually a Zappa trademark), sparing no targets with catchy melodies and high-pitched vocals. Zappa applies the same aggressive studio techniques he did on Lumpy Gravy, creating a jarring collage of sound that still sounds avant-garde today. Highlights from this flawless album are numerous and include the hippie bashing "Who Needs thePeace Corps," the bedroom science of "Let's Make the Water Turn Black," the anthematic "Mother People," and the perfect payoff of "What's the Ugliest Part of Your Body?" Quite simply one of the best rock albums of all time. --Andrew Boscardin

I was listening to We're Only In It For The Money in my basement and I realized:
Phase 1: We're Only In It For The Money
Phase 2: Lumpy Gravy
Phase 3: Civilization (Phase III)
Frank even put it on the album in a speech bubble "Is this Phase 1 of Lumpy Gravy?" and on Lumpy Gravy "Is this Phase 2 of We're Only In It For The Money?" We're Only In It For The Money and Lumpy Gravy Have a song in common, "Take Your Clothes Off When You Dance" (Just "Take Your Clothes Off" on Lumpy Gravy)

If you are a Zappa fan and you don't have any of these albums BUY THEM NOW! and listen to them, back to back to back.

In college, our "hippie" friend Lowell W... introduced our group to Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention. Soon, I was adding Mothers LPs (They came on vinyl, you know) to my ecclectic record collection. So, what was this stuff anyhow? Political comment? Rock N Roll? It certainly was not Country & Western! What a puzzle! (However, it might have been poltical satire because Zappa seems to have written a song about my family friendly congressman before he was even elected. "Just have your fun, you old son of a gun, and drive off in your Lincoln..." So, Lowell up and writes Frank about what's it really mean anyhow and signs it Lo W... Now, Zappa was not one to waste a stamp on a fan. But, a few months later a full page ad appeared for the newest Mother's album in "The Rolling Stone." The headline read: "Dear Lo: We're only in it for the money!" and there was a large photo of the album cover and some other stuff. Well, we still did not know what it was all about, but I enjoyed the album. I cannot speak for the entire listings of the Mothers on Amazon, but "We're only in it for the money" is my favorite Zappa CD. I still do not know what the goofy thing is all about, but I think the title is telling the truth.

Zappa at his best, if you don't mind the baggage.......2007-01-12

Frank Zappa's best work is often weighed down with his insistent brand of humor, and this album, perhaps the best of his early period, is no exception. Some of his studio mastery is already at work with the story of an intruder in the studio somehow messing with the tapes weaving through the songs. And the acerbic look at the hippie scene is devastating. Anybody who ever thought about going to San Francisco with flowers in their hair should have been forced to listen first. And doesn't that sound dated; there's the rub - stuff like that drags down the timeless quality of this music. It becomes a "period document" instead of just a great musical listen.
But don't let that stop you - this is a textbook example of how rock music was already becoming a melting pot for every genre imaginable. And in this album, it's in the hands of a master. In multiple styles, brilliantly executed, the Mothers create a rich sonic landscape of memorable melodies, creative instrumentation, daring rhythmns, and superb playing. Don't miss this one.

Zappa's Finest Hour.......2006-12-20

Some of this album is snarky, hilarious satire (Who Needs the Peace Corps?; Flower Punk; Absolutely Free; the Idiot Bastard Son), some of it's unabashed, unironic protest singing (Mother People; Concentration Moon; Mom and Dad; What's the Ugliest Part of Your Body?; Take off Your Clothes When You Dance), some of it's comic relief (Harry, You're a Beast; Let's Make the Water Turn Black), and some of it's more avant-garde (Are You Hung Up?; Hot Poop; Nasal Rentetive Callipoe Music; The Chrome Plated Megaphone of Destiny), but every part of this forty minute suite (pretty much what it is) is unadultred brilliance that'll make your head spin. The best Zappa album out there, at least out of what I've heard.

Some of the best music ever created.......2006-09-03

We know he was a genius. Beneath all the arrogance and cynicisim. Past all the 6th grade bathroom humor. Beyond the anger - there was in Frank Zappa a heart which cared for his fellow man, and the soul of a musician.

I didn't know what to make of this album when I began listening to it in 1968, till I heard The Chrome-Plated Megaphone of Destiny at the end. To my mind, this is a musical masterpiece equal to the works of any great composer.

Zappa was complex and didn't make it easy to see the beauty in his work. Don't take the bait - keep a very open mind, listen with your heart, and this album will reward you time and time again.

When Dedication dropped early in 2004, Lil' Wayne and DJ Drama brought the mixtape hustle back to New Orleans. One classic spurred another and then another, and soon Weezy F Baby was not only a hip- hop household name, but also a mixtape one, too. Back with another Gangsta Grillz classic, the New Orleans Cash Money prezzy drops this majorly exclusive mixtape of completely new and unreleased material.

One of country's most distinctive voices, John Anderson racked up an impressive list of hits in the '80s and '90s ("Swingin'," "Money in the Bank") before his career grew erratic. Now he returns as the newest member of Big & Rich's MuzikMafia, and this solid effort (produced by Rich, who had a hand in much of the writing) appears on B&R's label, Raybaw Records. If "Funky Country" owes a little too much to the rebel stomp of "Comin' to Your City," other songs Anderson crafted with his MuzikMafia cohorts--the exquisitely sad "Bonnie Blue" and the mid-tempo ballad "I Can't Make Her Cry Anymore"--more than hold their own. Producer Rich wisely divides the program between stone-cold honky-tonk and contemporary country, balancing the George Jones-like novelty song, "Brown Liquor," with the pop-ish "You Already Know My Love," and throwing in the Dylanesque "Weeds" for good measure. Willie Nelson's nasal whine threads through a song named for him ("Willie's Guitar"), but the album's long-term resonance comes not from Rich, Nelson, or anyone else but Anderson, whose rolling, tug-and-release baritone imbues even the most mediocre lyric with chasms of pain. --Alanna Nash

Album Description

Country music icon John Anderson is the newest member of MuzikMafia. With guest artists such as Keith Urban and Willie Nelson this album respects tradition and celebrates the present and future.

John Anderson is back & better than ever. You can't help missing his sooth voice. Even if you you don't like country, you must get this album.

Not Older...Just Getting Better Fantastic Album.......2007-06-10

Producers of this album had just the right mix of music to portray John Anderson at his best. Just one problem...Why hasn't this album been promoted and aired on radio as it should be? My favorite cuts from this album are "Bonnie Blue"...a nostalgic "Gone With the Wind" reminiscent of the South that even those of us from the North can appreciate. Awesome writing Troy Coleman and John Anderson..."Brown Liquor" which is a great up tempo tearin' up the turf song great co-writers,John Rich and John Phillips, and "Willie's Guitar" which embraces the impact of all three singers on country music today...I like all of these songs...But someone out there better listen and give this performer the accolades that are deserved...Great work John and collaborators ...,Easy Money

JOHN ANDERSON IS BACK IN A BIG WAY!!!.......2007-06-10

John Anderson has always been one of the great voices in country music and since his start in the early `80s has racked up an impressive list of great albums. His distinctive country baritone and singing style can hardly be compared to anybody else in the country music business and on his new album "Easy Money" you can hear that John is still in fine voice and remained true to his sound and country roots. 6 of the 11 songs are co-written by John Anderson and although he has giving John Rich full production credits, this album turned out to be a classic sounding John Anderson album.

With this CD John Anderson is giving you everything you are longing for as a true country music lover. A great mix of songs from strong country rockers as "Easy Money", "Funcky Country", or "If Her Lovin' Don't Kill Me", to toe-tipping Honky Tonk tunes like "Brown Liquor", and "Something To Drink About" until outstanding ballads as the wonderful "A Woman Knows", the moanful "Bonny Blue", or heartfelt ones like "Weeds", and "I Can't Make Her Cry Anymore", as well as the emotional "You Already Know My Love" (which is my favourite together with "Weeds") and the Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard collaboration of "Willie's Guitar" make this album worth every cent. There is not a bad song on here and you will love them all!

Florida boy John Anderson has always been an underrated superstar of country music. Now I am hoping that his new album "Easy Money" will help to pick up his career again and give him back the attention he deserves so much.

Do yourself a favor and get you a copy of "Easy Money" right now! If not, you will be sorry for missing one of the best country music releases of 2007.

God bless John Anderson and his wonderful music!

Solid Effort .......2007-05-20

John Anderson and George Strait are about the only two with a high profile left from the generation of male singers that came to prominence in the early 1980s. Obviously Strait has been the more successful but John Anderson is the superior balladeer.

Here, John Anderson returns with his first CD of new recordings in several years, this time with John Rich of Big & Rich serving as producer. Fortunately. Rich stays largely out of the way and lets Anderson focus on that which he does best, as seven of the CD's eleven songs are ballads.

First some consumer advice. Upon inserting the CD into your player, troll over to track 11, "Willie's Guitar" and give it a few listens as John, Merle Haggard (vocal) and Willie Nelson (vocal & a guitar solo) work their magic on this wistful tale which, curiously enough, wasn't written by either John, Merle or Willie. No matter, as writers John Phillips and Ray Stephenson certainly caught the essense of heartbreak and resignation.

First the "bad": the uptempo songs "Easy Money" , "Funky Country" and "If Her Lovin' Don't Kill Me" are merely okay - worth 3 or 3.5 stars each. These three songs are the ones on which the John Rich "Muzik Mafia" sound is the most in evidence.

Now the really good: The fourth uptempo number, however, "Brown Liquor" is really excellent, on a par with John's best uptempo numbers like "Black Sheep", "Chicken Truck" or "Swingin'"

Aside from the John & Merle & Willie offering, John has six really, really good solo ballads; in fact,I don't think John Anderson has ever done wrong by a ballad in his life. For me the highlights are "A Woman Knows", a sensitive John Rich-Julie Roberts penned ballad along the lines of Johnny Darrell's 1969 hit "A Woman Without Love" and John Anderson's song about about a woman's threat to her wayward husband that she'll give him "Something To Drink About". "Weeds" penned by Anderson and his late friend Lionel Delmore, might prove to be the favorite ballad from the CD for many listeners.

All in all, a very pleasant surprise as I was having nightmares about how a John Rich-produced CD might sound. Fortunately, it sounds like John Anderson being John Anderson, and it doesn't get much better than that

Anderson Gets Rich with "Easy Money".......2007-05-18

Prime Cuts: Something to Drink About, I Can't Make Her Cry Anymore, A Woman Knows

Anderson gets Rich (that is John Rich of Big and Rich) with "Easy Money." Produced by the godfather of the Muzik Mafia John Rich, "Easy Money" ushers the much anticipated return of Anderson on what is this year's most highly-profiled CD. However, long time fans of Anderson need not fear, "Easy Money" is not your mere gadget for Rich to transmit his high-tech gonzo kind of rock-country. Rather, this is mainly bona fide John Anderson indulgent with Anderson's honeyed drawl and wild-turkey twang. Regretfully, thus far radio has ignored this album's couple of singles namely "If Her Loving Don't Kill Me" and "A Woman's Knows." Nevertheless, radio's tepid reception no way tarnishes the sturdy quality of this 11-track disc.

Hands down, the cynosure of this album is in the ballads. Sophomore single "A Woman's Knows," coming from the pens of Vicky McGehee, John Rich and Julie Roberts, is a sensitive cheating ballad told from the perspective of a woman who through her intuition detects her man's infidelity. "Willie Guitar," with its gently strummed acoustic guitars and mournful-sounding fiddles, is creatively written tearjerker that compares the whole in one's heart with a hole in Willie Nelson's guitar. Recalling Anderson's "Mississippi Moon," "Weeds" (which is co-written by Anderson's recently deceased friend and hit writer Lionel Delmore) is a swampy bluesy fiddle-driven downer. Co-written with fellow Music Mafia Cowboy Troy, "Bonnie Blue" has all the charm of the South with an appropriate touch of racial reconciliation in the closing lines: "Bonnie Blue, is your tattered flag still flyin'/Bonnie Blue, yeah they showed you wrong from right/Bonnie Blue, I'm so sorry that I'm cryin'/But there isn't that much difference between black and white."

Of the uptempoes, "Brown Liquor" is a honky-tonk stomper that calls to mind George Jones' "White Lightning." For unadulterated country without the screeching rock guitars, the barroom weeper "Something to Drink About" is insatiably good. However, there are a few misfires: "If Her Loving Don't Kill Me," formerly a minor hit for Aaron Tippin is pretty mediocre for a lead single material. Also, "Funky Country" and "Easy Money" are more Big and Rich than Anderson. Despite the presence of a guitar solo by Keith Urban, the title track, a bemoaning lament about the hardships of being an entertainer is too idiosyncratic. Though "Funky Country" tries to transport Anderson into the age of ipods, but it fails miserably with its ear-popping drums and ill-constructed melodic lines.

Overall, "Easy Money" is posed for great things for Anderson. As a sonic conduit between traditional country and modern neo-traditionalism, "Easy Money" has enough to please both camps. However, as a departure from most Anderson albums, there are more ballads than usual. Frankly these slowies are the ones that steal the show--they show that after all these years, Anderson still sings with his heart on his sleeve.

Amazon.com

Remix projects are often commercially motivated ventures that jettison everything that made a track personal and expressive in favor of thudding, generic dance beats that will get played in clubs and on the radio. But as is usually the case, singer David Sylvian has a different approach. Nine Horses is his project with his brother and drummer, Steve Jansen, and electronica artist Burnt Friedman. They take songs from the 2006 release Snow Borne Sorrow and find new dimensions in their already multifaceted songs. These are more reimaginings than remixes. The slow electro-soul of "The Banality of Evil" becomes an ethereal New Orleans dirge that brings out Sylvian's baleful lyrics like a lost voodoo prayer. "Wonderful World" emphasizes Keith Lowe's slinky double bass line, underscoring the already smoke-filled jazz noir feel this track had in its original form. Stina Nordenstam sings the chorus on that, and the remix makes her fractured soprano an even more startling contrast with Sylvian's dolorously fudgy tenor. Nordenstam takes the lead on the hallucinatory lullaby of "Birds Sing for Their Lives," originally a Japanese-only bonus track. There are also new tracks: the funky and acerbic "Money for All" and the ominous, but still funky "Get the Hell Out," the latter full of glitchy beats and chamber strings. Both are reheated in alternate versions as well. You can't dance to the remixes of Money for All, but you can go deeper into the world of David Sylvian. --John Diliberto

Nine Horses Ride Again.......2007-01-27

David Sylvian, Burnt Friedman and Steve Jansen have fortunately made the decision to continue working together under the moniker of NINE HORSES. This eight track EP begins with the title track, "Money For All", a collaboration between Sylvian and Friedman. Jazzy vibraphone and clarinet riffs are intertwined with bluesy guitar licks and folky harmonica lines,...all casually placed atop a slightly trippy hip hop groove. The song also features the soulful harmonies from the very same backing vocalists who helped frame a large portion of the melody lines on Nine Horses' debut, Snow Borne Sorrow. Sylvian's lyrics seem to be filled with veiled attacks against the US President Bush and the Republican Party (referred to here as "a mean looking elephant"), basically hitting them hard where they purport to be the strongest: homeland security, capitalism, and the neo-conservative urge for war rather than diplomacy. Yet the cultural climate maintained by the nation's citizens is also taken to task: the endless need for foreign oil, the downside to nationalistic pride resulting in an 'us versus them' mentality, the overall greed that is prevalent in capitalism and destructive vices that many willingly take part in.
"Get The Hell Out", written by Jansen and Sylvian, is built upon a funked up techno beat which is somewhat similar to the recent sound of Massive Attack. Staccato synthesized horn kicks punctuate the track throughout the relatively aggressive verses, while Sylvian's smooth Fender Rhodes and a highly orchestrated sampling of violins permeate the much gentler bridges. Though Sylvian's lyrics are uncharacteristically less descriptive than usual, it appears as though the song's subject matter revolves around an abused woman in need of escape from her current situation.
"Birds Sing For Their Lives", which previously appeared on the Japanese version of Nine Horses' debut cd, is a collaboration between Jansen and Sylvian with singer Stina Nordenstam handling all vocals and lyrics. The song's minimalistic and icy tone atop an eerily adagio waltz tempo is perfect for Nordenstam's fragile vocal.
In the case of Friedman's remixes of the tracks from Snow Borne Sorrow, all three fail to improve upon the originals in any way and come across as unnecessary in my opinion. Yet the new material that is included can only be considered as especially strong additions to the Nine Horses catalog, so this is well worth it.

The milestone of lil wayne's career.......2007-07-14

When lil wayne first came out with the block is hot, most of the south was feeling him including me. Lil wayne been in the game for a while now. He just gotten better with time and is now one of the best rapper's in the south. Ain't taking nothing away from TI though. He was serious with this cd, even though the entire CD is freestyled. He still came hard with the punchlines and the metaphors. Some tight cuts on this cd include the intro; which is probably one of the hardest intro's ive heard anyone spit, go dj; good single, this is the carter, bm jr; the hardest song on this cd, i miss my dawgs; a song telling us how he feel about the former hot boys, only way, bring it back, ain't that a __, earthquake; which uses a good sample, and cash money millionaires. If you want some straight louisiana music, then cop this cd. Lilweezyana, that's the new planet. Peace!!!!!!

NEW ORLEANS!!!.......2007-03-15

Lil Wayne's lyrical skills are not what I thought they would be. Being from the south, particularly New Orleans, Louisiana, I thought he wouldn't be any better than Birdman or Soulja Slim...but he is! In fact, he's better.

This album has few flaws, and is definitely worth purchasing. There are 3 hit singles off the album including "Go D.J.", produced by Mannie Fresh. In fact, basically the whole album is produced by Mannie Fresh but on the cover it says it's executively produced by Birdman and his brother, I think (they both have the same last name).

But anyway, Lil Wayne is definitely not what I expected...his lyrical skills parallel those of Ludacris! He is definitely not the best rapper alive, but sure is the best in New Orleans. That I think.

His best album next to Lights Out.......2006-11-01

Standout tracks:THIS IS THE CARTER, B.M.JR(the hardest song on here), I MISS MY DAWGS(dope even though you and I know that he is full of s***), ON MY OWN, BRING IT BACK, WHO WANNA, SNITCH, EARTHQUAKE, AINT THAT A B***H, WE DONT etc. Filler: Go dj(crappy beat sleep inducing lyrics), Cash money millionaires, Get down(SNORE!), Hoes(Screams filler) and Only way. Bottom Line: Lil wayne's fourth album stands out as his best album next to his second solid work Light Out. What makes this album better than The carter2 is that the production is (for most of the songs) is not bad and he doesnt sound like an up north emcee clone. He is just being himself on this one.

LiL Wayne has been my baby since the Hot Boys!.......2006-10-18

This cd is hot I have always been down with lil wayne and because of me my boyfriend is all on his D**K and took over my cd's. The intro and the outro are outstanding I don't think I ever heard lil wayne like this but I'm liking this a little more than my boyfriend lil wayne if I ever meet you in person it's on and poppin. But I know that will never happen! On the real cop this one it's not a disappointment but don't forget the carter.

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter.......2006-09-10

After releasing his last album, "Lights Out" in 2002, Lil Wayne took a year off the solo scene by releasing another Hot Boys album, "Let Em Burn." Even though most of the album was recorded in the past years, that album sadly will probably be the last the group will ever release. Anyway Lil Wayne comes back on the scene in 2004 with his 4th solo album, "Tha Carter."
