Release Date February 18, 2008
As a fan of there first album I bought this album when it first came out, listened to it once and said "What is this? It sounds like ELO on crack. RUBBISH!!" And so didn't listen to it for ages. However i found it again the other day so listened to it once again. My reaction this time was "What is this? It sounds like ELO on crack. GREAT!!" I always find the things that take a while to like usually stay with you for longer. Good Album!

Live Santa Monica '72

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

Release Date June 30, 2008
I've not listened to Bowie for many years, but when I saw this had been released I decided to get it straight away. This was my favourite era, and I'm a big fan of live albums, seeing how well a small group can reproduce the songs on stage - and they certainly don't disappoint. The band wend their way through a brilliant 18-song set, ranging from the full-on rock of Suffragette City to a wonderful version of Space Oddity - just 2 vocals and a 12-string acoustic guitar. There are only one or two tracks which don't quite match up to the quality of the studio versions; but this is live music and you would expect that. The one thing that stops me giving this five stars is the sound quality and mix. Mostly it is very good, but frequently there are ... Read More:

boring as ever. Try Nick Worrall's debut album for a real treat and to show what good modern songwriting sounds like.

Songs in A&E

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Spiritualized

Release Date May 26, 2008
I've never been one for the jazz themed white noise thrashouts so beloved of Mr Pierce, but always loved the droney cathedral rock of his earlier days (which I appreciate is just as unmusical to some ears - I absolutely love Pure Phase). Ladies and Gentlemen is undoubtedly his masterpiece (jazz themed white noise thrashouts notwithstanding), but why oh why did I not buy a second copy and keep the first fresh in its pill box?

Anyway, post L&G the work declined. Some decent stuff on Let it come down, but I didn't bother with Amazing Grace. This is a return to form. I agree wholeheartedly with the reviewer who said he might need a bit more inspiration when it comes to song titles, but the songs and music are back. I cannot stop listening to Death ... Read More:

Parachutes

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: Coldplay

Release Date July 10, 2000
Parachutes is still my favourit album from Coldplay. This album contributed to coldplays success with great songs Shivers, Yellow, High Speed, Everythings not lost. What can I say one of the best English bands ever.

Urban Hymns

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

Release Date September 29, 1997
Richard Ashcroft has never been one to undersell his own brilliance - his solo career may have been weak, and the first two Verve albums excellent, but on Urban Hymns the hype finally justified the mouth. Just as the Britpop bubble was about to burst, the Verve reformed for one last album, to sign off at their peak (although, obviously, they have since reformed again).

Urban Hymns is the distillation of everything great about the Verve, but with an extra poppy edge. The band generally reign in their psychedelic jams of the previous two albums, with notable exceptions being the fantastic 'Rolling People' and even better 'Catching The Butterfly.' The big singles are all here, from 'Lucky Man' to 'The Drugs Don't Work' right up to the world-conquering 'Bittersweet Symphony,' ... Read More:

Once: Music From The Motion Picture

by: Glen Hansard, Marketa Irglova

I saw the film first and bought myself this cd afterwards. I love every song on it. If it's the music from the film that you want it's all on here. I'd highly recommend this cd.

All The Lost Souls

CD-Charts > Music > Adult Contemporary
by: James Blunt

Release Date September 17, 2007
I have to admit that from the first time I heard James Blunt first hit (played endlessly and everywhere), I was put off listening to any of his material. I heard '1973' one day on the radio and loved it, then the next single - eventually I had the chance to hear the whole album and it is up there with the very best. I am not sure why James Blunt gets dismissed as a bit of a light weight, but he does. Its a bit like David Gray, you look at him and cannot believe what he can conjure up. Every track on this album is perfect and will hook you from the first play. The songs seem to be deeply personal and you imagine. I am writing this review to exercise my guilt over how I dismissed JB after that initial single!
