Spanish Train And Other Stories

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Chris De Burgh

Release Date March 14, 1991
It's time the reputation of Chris de Burgh had a bit of rehabilitation. In the days before "The Lady in Red" and its bundle of insipid follow-ups, Chris de Burgh was a songwriter with flair and originality. A modern-day descendant of the travelling minstrels of yesteryear, de Burgh perfected the art of storytelling in song, finding equal inspiration from the Celtic tradition and the era of flower power when being a folk singer was something to be proud of. "Spanish Train and Other Stories" was de Burgh's second album, and certainly his creative peak.

The title track opens quietly but rapidly reaches a demented crescendo with a crazy story of God and the Devil playing poker for souls. From here, the album meanders, erratically but ... Read More:

Tenor At The Movies

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Jonathan Ansell

Release Date February 18, 2008
Russell Watson! Its pretty obvious, since Russells horrendous illness, that all these young hopefulls come out of the woodwork, trying to do that bit better. Jonathan, very nice though you are, sorry mate, but you've got too much competition nowadays. no one can ever better Russells amazing voice. Need I say more?

Nothing But The Best

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Frank Sinatra

Release Date May 12, 2008
I am a big fan of early Sinatra however these tracks are taken from his later years when his silky voice had long since gone. Although the songs are familiar they seam to be padded out with the backing music, I guess this was to try and compensate for his voice.

My advice is to stick to the old sinatra.

Serenade

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Katherine Jenkins

Release Date November 06, 2006
I will admit that when I first saw the track listing for this CD, I felt disappointed. "Come on!" I thought, "Katherine should be more original than this! Practically every soprano records 'O Mio Babbino Caro' at one point or another, and here are two common songs from the classical crossover genre, 'Nella Fantasia' and 'The Prayer'. Should I even invest in something that will only be a re-hash of things I have already heard many times?" In the end however, I decided that even with the unimaginative song selections, I would buy this CD.

I am very glad I did! There are so many gems here that I now consider this Katherine's best album. Surprisingly, "Nella Fantasia" instantly became a favorite of mine. Her rich, warm tones really brought this song to life ... Read More:

Getz/Gilberto Vol.1: Remastered

CD-Charts > Music > Bestsellers
by: Stan Getz, Joao Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim

Release Date May 25, 1999
Bossa Nova was and is not to everybody's taste. Many jazz aficianados can't stand Astrud Gilberto's singing either. The thing with this session in particular, however, is Stan Getz's playing. There is only one word for it - divine! Which is why I suspect there are so many accolades for this CD. The brevity and melodiousness of his ideas is quite exceptional, not so on many other examples of his work before or after.

I love jazz and I like this, but I can't say I can listen to Bossa Nova all the time. Stan Getz on this CD, however, I don't think I'll tire of...
