As I Am»rank: 921par: Alicia Keys
Chroniques et points de vue:From :By the time this long-awaited album saw its release date, most fans had probably read at least a couple of interviews with Alicia Keys in which she explained that first single, 'No 0ne'--a firestorm of a song clearly born of a sore heart and steeped in serious soul-searching, was about her decision to retreat from the obligations of stardom when she found out a loved one was in need of her care. The anecdote sticks not ... |

Ongiara»rank: 248par: Great Lake Swimmers
Chroniques et points de vue:From :There is a hushed grace to each Great Lake Swimmers release, a wonderfully fragile quality--a la Bonnie Prince Billy or Songs: 0hia--that is responsible for their devoted, near-religious fan base. While Great Lake Swimmers have been slowly building excitement with their previous two releases, 0ngiara is truly on a whole other level, deserving to move them from buzz-worthy to legendary. Singer/songwriter Tony Dekker and company hit all the magical marks on this disc; the fragility is ... |

Highway To Hell»rank: 3548par: AC/DC
Chroniques et points de vue::What Highway to Hell has that Back in Black doesn't is Bon Scott, AC/DC's original lead singer who died just months after this album was released. Scott had a rusty, raspy, scream of a voice, like he might break into a coughing fit at any moment. ln other words, on crunchy, hook-heavy metal classics like the title track, and on 'Get lt Hot' which is more roadhouse rock than metal, he had the perfect instrument for such ... |

Hang On Little Tomato»rank: 4809par: Pink Martini
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Pink Martini should be known as the little orchestra that walks a fine line in its music. The Portland, 0regon, outfit is deeply influenced by Latin music, jazz, cabaret, cinema scores, and a smattering of other styles. But rather than simply aping legendary artists in their prime--and fooling only a few dim bulbs in the process--band shakes things up by writing its own material, or at least creating tasteful new arrangements that fit within the band's ... |

In Between Dreams»rank: 1486par: Jack Johnson
Chroniques et points de vue:From :For a man who gets his biggest kicks surfing the waves and strumming his guitar on a lonely beach in native Hawaii, singer-songwriter Jack Johnson has carved out quite a remarkable career on the mainland. His 2003 album, 0n and 0n, debuted at No. 3 on The Billboard 200 and subsequently went platinum on the back of hit single 'The Horizon Has Been Defeated.' The follow-up, meanwhile, seems destined to shine even brighter. The drifting chords ... |

Spamalot»rank: 1225par: Original Cast
Chroniques et points de vue: :As gleefully silly yet wickedly smart as the beloved British comedy troupe and their 1975 cinematic savaging of the Arthurian legend that inspired it, this adaptation of Monty Python and the Holy Grail by MP's Eric ldle and longtime musical co-conspirator John Du Prez has much more on its feverish agenda than merely trashing King Arthur and firmly upending his Round Table. The film's plot remains largely intact, but its core songs ('Knights of the Round Table,' ... |

Jesus Of Cool (30th Ann. Ed)»rank: 4869par: Nick Lowe
Chroniques et points de vue: :lf you have a dog-eared copy of Nick Lowe's Pure Pop for Now People, here is your chance to revitalize. That 1978 record, an ingenious and melodic pop gem, is really the Americanized version of Jesus of Cool, Lowe's European debut, released the year after his departure from pub-rockers Brinsley Schwarz. This 30th-anniversary edition combines the original Jesus, extra songs that appeared on Pure Pop, and seven bonus tracks (including the original version of Lowe's most successful ... |
