Rubber Soul

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: The Beatles

Release Date November 01, 1998
Rubber soul es el mas claro ejemplo de como los discos larga duracion se convirtieron en obras de arte puro musical; antaño, los llamados lp's eran puramente un recurso para sacar provecho de artistas de un par de hits, haciendoles cantar canciones "de relleno" que eran intercaladas entre sus exitos; los beatles rompieron este esquema, puesto que ¡NUNCA TUVIERON TEMAS DE RELLENO!!; su obsesion por la excelencia les llevaron a cuidar y elaborar cada cancion de sus discos hasta darse el lujo de descartar y regalar aquellas piezas que no les parecian; el resultado lo podemos ver aqui, en un album que NUNCA PASARA DE MODA y sera el reflejo de que los discos larga duracion son PIEZAS MAESTRAS COMPLETAS; se puede ver la inclusion de instrumentos ...

The Sound of Girls Aloud

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Girls Aloud

Release Date October 30, 2006
I will admit I was originally determined to hate Girls Aloud because I am against reality TV shows but song after song I found myself unable to stop listening. Now I am a huge fan and bought the Greatest Hits as I had not previously bought a Girls Aloud album. Every track makes me want to dance and sing into my hairdryer. My personal favourite are Long Hot Summer, Wake Me Up, Something Kinda Ooh and the unreleased track Money with it's hilarious lyrics. The girls lyrics are undeniably witty and sharp and nothing if not bold on all of their singles.

I play this CD whenever I am getting ready for a night out, Something Kinda Ooh is always the final track I play as it is my favourite party mood song. I have also found myself beginning to ... Read More:

Keep The Faith

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Bon Jovi

Release Date March 26, 2001
In my review i cannon't say anything that the other reviewers haven't already said, ''Keep the Faith'' is a truely magnificent album and includes one of my all time favorite songs that Bon Jovi has ever recorded, "Bed Of Roses" --- a great track and one that i never do tire of. This album is one that you will play again and again, it rocks as to many other Bon Jovi albums such ad "New Jervesy" an "Slippery When Wet" 10/10 --- My second favorite Bon Jovi album, 2nd only to "SWWW".
If you don't own this album, you're missing out on a masterpiece and an essential listening album.

The Essential Bob Dylan

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Bob Dylan

Release Date June 07, 2004
In the beginning the way into Dylan was via Peter Paul & Mary,the Turtles,the Byrds and Johnny Cash.
And commercially electric Dylan was just right.
This CD is just a sampler and introduction to the Art of Dylan.If you want more you get the original albums on CD.All but one have been on catalog since CDs began.
My favorite Dylan song is Can you please crawl out your window.
Thus this double CD would only be of interest if there was a booklet with it and its by no means the only one of its kind as the most recent-titled DYLAN and in 3 different editions -comes with a picture book.
Today's Dylan collector needs plenty of money and plenty of room

Blackout

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Britney Spears

Release Date October 29, 2007
Once you've put any personal feelings towards Britney aside, and actually listen to the music, you're almost certain to find that this album is a milestone in her career, being some of her finest work to date. Without the image of the messy music video, 'Gimme More', the lead single, presents itself as a catchy Pop anthem, with an infectious hook, and the same could be said for 'Piece of Me' among others. There is also a new sound created for Britney on this record, in the song 'Heaven on Earth.' It would certainly be a radio smash, and is one of my personal favourites throughout all of her back catologue. It's a shame that come people can't see past her personal life. However, it seems that this will no longer be an excuse in the future, as her life is getting back ... Read More:

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Bryan Adams

Release Date March 17, 2008
After waiting so long for this album, I found it severely lacking. The tracks are very much 'samey' and uninspirational.

A definite come-down from 'Room Service' and severe departure from all the old classics. Yes, music needs to be progressive with 'the times' but this was a step in the wrong direction.

High Times: Singles 1992-2006

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Jamiroquai

Release Date November 06, 2006
It is clear that jamiroquai are something of an unusual band. I remember seeing them for the first time on TV in around 1993, (I think it was the show, The Word) performing Too Young To Die, and immediately clocked the retro 70's jazz funk style and as i was and still am a fan of such music, immediately became a fan and went out and bought the single.
The fender rhodes keys, the Stevie Wonder-esque voice, the funky bass and horns,and the sci-fi imagery and lyrics, all came to make a great sound and package, and whats more the first proper British jazz funk since Light of The World, and a great antidote to the Brit pop or electronicky stuff around.
Their first album was a constant visitor to my Cd player.
What was more surprising that they became so popular, as they ... Read More:

Hail to the Thief

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Radiohead

Release Date June 09, 2003
This is a truly underrated album. At first i hated this album, but as the sensational Radiohead always do, i was sucked in by its brilliance. This album is up their with their best work. From the kick up the arse that is 2+2=5, the dreamy sail to the moon and the simply breathtaking There There this is a top quality album from start to finish. Back drifts also took me several listens, as well as Where I End and You Begin before i realized their greatness. There is something about Radiohead that i cannot put my finger on that sets them apart from any other band. Maybe its their intelligence, their lyrics, their originality, Thom York's insanely good voice or Johnny's magical guitar playing. Im not sure, but they really are in a different league to the bland and self loving coldplay or the over ... Read More:

The Future

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Leonard Cohen

Release Date October 27, 1997
Tracks on this 1992 album range from the soulful cover of Frederick Knight's Be For Real, to the flowing, country-tinged Closing Time and the sombre Anthem with its comforting lines: "There is a crack in everything/That's how the light gets in."

Democracy is another tour de force with a lovely undulating rhythm and gripping lyrics whilst Light As The Breeze must rate as one of his most moving love songs. As Cohen's sole album of new material in the 1990's, this was a worthy follow-up to 1988's I'm Your Man and remains a masterpiece of poetry in song.

Democracy has been covered by Judy Collins on her album of the same name whilst on the tribute album Tower of Song, there is a sensitive rendition of Light As The Breeze by Billy Joel. The Future and Anthem are covered on the soundtrack tribute ... Read More:

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders from Mars: Remastered

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: David Bowie

Release Date September 06, 1999
I'll keep it short since others before me have reviewed it better than i could.

This album is one of the top 20 of all time and one of my personal favourite records. There's no better collection of tracks put together on an LP and Moonage Daydream maybe one of the best Rock songs of all time.
Every household should have this album
