1.Call Me Irresponsible Tour Edition by: Michael Buble October 08, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £11.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £7.01 (58%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.55
This is my favourite play at the moment, I guess that I am a little late in trying Mr Buble's music, but I am a convert. Think of a nicely warmed, quality single malt, good crystal glass, this is that smooth, just slides down, leaving a pleasant glow behind. Good in the car, great on the MP3 player, nice in the background during dinner with friends. This album has a great selection of tracks, well known classics of the genre, and others, new to me at least. Just try it!

I was introduced to Amy Winehouse when I finally purchased Back to Black months after the CD had been released. After hearing "You Know I'm No Good" and "Rehab", I still didn't know what to expect from the entire CD, so I decided to wait until a friend of mine finally convinced me to buy it. The CD had an old school feel to it and my favorite tracks ended up being "Back To Black", "Tears Dry On Their Own", "Me & Mrs. Jones", "Love Is A Losing Game" and "Rehab". I was seacrhing for music one day on amazon and I found out that she was re-relasing a CD that she had previously released overseas in 2003 entitled "Frank". The CD gets off to a nice start with the track "Stronger Than Me". Amy speaks about a courtship where while ... Read More:

4.Circus Money by: Walter Becker July 14, 2008

I'll get straight to the point and just say go to track 5 "Paging Audrey" and press play- It is absolutely brilliant, easily as good as anything Steely Dan have ever done without a shadow of a doubt and stands out like a sore thumb in the company of Walter's latest batch of songs. Its not that the rest of the album is bad or anything, just that this track is so good that everything else pales by comparison. The usual high production standards by anything Steely Dan are in order (courtesy this time of Larry Klein) as well as the standard lyrical cynicism that messrs Fagen and Becker are reknowned for. The music itself is reggae (lite)- Think: SD's "Haitian Divorce" although there are one or two tunes here that do tend to ponder ... Read More:

5.Two Men With The Blues by: Willie Nelson & Wynton Marsalis July 07, 2008

I bet this was a fantastic live show - shame it sounds so flat on the CD! Unlike the other reviewer I came to this recording as a fan of Willie Nelson. I think Willie sounds pretty good on the whole - I just wish there was a bit more of him! His regular harmonica buddy, Mickey Raphael, is the real star of the show for me - his soloes shine above everyone else! The first two tracks, "Bright Lights, Big City", and Willie's own "Night Life", are the highlights for me. The lowest points being the two tracks associated with Hank Williams ("My Bucket's Got a Hole in It" and "Nobody's Business"), which, for me, don't seem to work in this jazz setting. All in all, it's not a terrible album but certainly not one that will ... Read More:

I have owned this CD for more than 3 years and it is still the best Buble has ever done. I saw him sing most of the tracks at Ronnie Scotts and even now my friends accompanying me that night still talk fondly of the occasion. At this bargain price (feb 2008) you cannot afford to be without it. Everyone will ask you who is singing it. It is just wonderful music. All the songs are beautifully arranged and exceptionally well sung. I listen to it again and again without tiring of it.

7.Polar Bear by: Polar Bear July 28, 2008

Apparently recorded in late 2006 but not released until now, Mercury-nominated Polar Bear's third album is also their longest, and sees them making increasing use of electronics to add texture to their music. Songs like Goodbye dissolve from the kind of tuneful, genre-hopping upbeat cool jazz we recognise as Polar Bear's signature sound into a cloud of low-key electronic droning before transforming seamlessly into the following track, while Voices is out-and-out ambient jazz, and good with it. All the while Polar Bear weave through bop, fusion, free and any other kind of jazz they fancy with scant regard for conservative classicism, proving themselves yet again to be about the best band in the world in any musical field. Awesome.

8.Buena Vista Social Club by: Buena Vista Social Club, Ry Cooder June 09, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £11.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.98 You Save: £2.01 (17%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.16
'Buena Vista Social Club' is the Ry Cooder produced album of such melodic, harmonious, relaxed Cuban beauty. Each track transports you to another time and place and you honestly feel your cares drifting away as you listen to each song. From the wonderful album opener 'Chan Chan' to the infectious 'El Cuarto de Tula' and the delightfully mournful 'Dos Gardenias' and more, this album throws up delight after delight. Ry Cooder may have brought this amazing music to a wider audience, but it is the talent and passion of the musicians that shines through. A beautiful album that deserves a place in any music collection. Well worth a try.

9.Can't Buy A Thrill by: Steely Dan July 13, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £4.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £2.98 You Save: £2.01 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.25
Steely Dan's first album, like many first albums, suggests that they haven't settled on their approach. Yet this is to its advantage. While they seem to make only great albums, this is more the work of a rock band, rather than the usual Becker/Fagen dominated jazz-inflected musings. Sure, they wrote all the material here, but the other band members are allowed a more prominent role. The lead vocals of David Palmer, for instance, highlight that Donald Fagen's voice, while distinct, is probably Steely Dan's weakest link. Nevertheless, this is a minor gripe. From first track to last, this is solid-groove rock music, sophisticated, lyrically and musically imaginative, with the odd daring arrangement. All of the players get to express themselves and the harmonies are ... Read More:

If you are a serious Soul fan you will have most of these tracks already. If you are a Music fan you will be familiar with most of the twenty or so Stax artist featured on this fifty track CD. This is no Greatest Hits Collection (plenty of them here on Amazon)but a wonderful insight into one of the greatest Record Labels of the sixties and early seventies. If you like Music, Soul Music, then this is a worthy addition to any CD Collection
