71.Songs of Leonard Cohen by: Leonard Cohen April 23, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £13.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.98 You Save: £7.01 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £5.74
I first heard a few songs of Leonard Cohen when I was 16. He was one of my dad's favorite singers and soon became my all-time favorite. His songs - often focusing on religious themes, but also on sexuality (in a non-primitive way unlike many songs nowadays), women and isolation - have a special impact. The usual minimalistic orchestration is legend (only a few albums such as DEATH OF A LADIES' MAN produced by Phil Spector and TEN NEW SONGS break the tradition). My absolute favorite song ONE OF US CANNOT BE WRONG is featured on this unique album. With all the R&B/rap crap played on the radio LEONARD COHEN is a welcome salvation!

I like to listen to Jerry Anderson on BBC Radio Ulster, he's really funny (although when my English Nephew was visiting he couldn't understand a word anyone on the show was saying) and he plays nice folk music. I heard the song 'village green appreciation society' a few times on his show, and thought it was brill (I don't remember the Kinks version.) I surfed the net to find who sang it, and came across Kate Rusby - what a discovery! I bought this album on the strength of that one track, and have played it nearly to death already. I like all the songs, as well a loving Kate's accent (I spent two years in Leeds when I was at college, and it brings me back to those happy times.) Buy it. Play it. Love it.

74.Still On Top: The Greatest Hits by: Van Morrison October 22, 2007

I got this before going to see Van Morrison Live at Symphony Hall. The CD made up for the lack of known songs sung by Van in his live performance. It was a strange affair, he did not speak to the audience and performed a very self indulgant show. However I can't fault the CD it is great.

75.A Song's Best Friend: The Very Best of John Denver by: John Denver September 20, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.97 You Save: £4.02 (45%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.74
We have loved John Denver's music since we were kids. Hearing them in this CD shows us that he was the BEST. We have so many memories of the different things the songs meant to us, he gave us a lot of happiness. We will always play his music & we know it will live on long after we are gone.

76.O by: Damien Rice July 28, 2003

Just thought I'd do my bit to reduce the ludicrously high star rating of Mr. Rice's dreary and vacuous disc. Lisa Hannigan does well to provide a good contrast to his dreadful vocals, but 'Cold Water' is the only song here of any merit; the rest is over-hyped tosh of the worst kind. May he sink into deserved obscurity as soon as possible.

77.U2 - Live At Red Rocks - Under A Blood Red Sky [1983] by: U2 September 29, 2008

Not heard the VHS Video in a while but this is so much better! Sound quality not the best on a DVD but a vast improvement on VHS. More songs, about 20 mins extra and Bono hasn't yet learned his stage craft. The Edge looks very un-rockstar as does Adam with his curly hair, Larry looks like he's still in (primary) school and Bono has the most ridiculuous hairdo (even by his standards). I could have done without Surrender & Seconds but the rest of the songs are storming, from Out of Control through to 40. This is a very loud DVD, so turn it up and destroy the neighbourhood! U2 when they were little!

78.Infiniment: 40 Chansons (remastered - high definition) by: Jacques Brel October 20, 2003

Jacques Brel remains an integral and hugely influential singer/songwriter in the scheme of twentieth-century music; with his gloomy and orchestral tales of whores, sailors, tramps and harlots influencing everyone from Scott Walker, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Shane MacGowan and Nick Cave, to bands like Jack, the Divine Comedy and Pulp. Like those acts, Brel's music is literate and theatrical, unfolding in a bleak world populated by lost love, loneliness, angst, melancholy and despair, but with the darkness softened by witty arrangements, satirical motifs and moments of dark comedy. The atmosphere of the songs is rich and evocative throughout... so, like the work of his contemporary Serge Gainsbourg; the songs practically reek of cheap booze and cigarette smoke, with the music ...

I've just been listening to my (previous release) copy of this album and it's excellent!. It gave me the opportunity to compare House Carpenter with Joan Baez (and Sweeney's Men) and it stands up magnificently. You have 6 days left to download their performance on Later via BBC iPlayer!
