Echoes: The Einaudi Collection

CD-Charts > Music > World and Folk
from: Bmg

Release Date September 01, 2003
I love piano music and after hearing one of the tracks on Classic FM was determined to buy a copy of this CD. I was looking forward to listening to it but after the first three tracks I started to feel disappointed. Einaudi is best listened to in isolation - ie on Classic FM. An entire CD of his is pretty boring and rather depressing to be honest. There is little differentiation from one song to the next: most are solemn, ponderous, many are written in 3/4 time giving the impression of a long waltz. I think hearing a track on the radio amongst other music does Einaudi's music more justice but he needs to vary the tone, the rhythm, and the mood of his pieces more, in my opinion, to be considered a composer of any real worth or value.

Help!

CD-Charts > Music > World and Folk
by: The Beatles

Release Date November 01, 1988
Con este album, parte del sondtrack de la pelicula del mismo nombre, los 4 genios de Liverpool nos dan una ultima muestra de su talento como compositores de lindas pero simples melodias "pop"; luego vendria su tremenda evolucion y complicacion musical, a partir de RUBBER SOUL, su siguiente album; pero al analizar cada cancion, siempre se encuentran esos destellos de gran talento de los fab-four; desde el impresionante HELP!, las lindas baladas I NEED YOU (de George), YOU'RE GONNA LOSE THAT GIRL (buenas armonias),IT'S ONLY LOVE y la monumental YESTERDAY (que gran cancion); pasando por grandes rocks como TICKET TO RIDE y I'VE JUST SEEN A FACE, muy buenos covers como DIZZY MISS LIZZIE,y algo de country con ACT NATURALLY, este es un disco que cierra muy acertadamente ...

Revival

CD-Charts > Music > World and Folk
by: John Fogerty

Release Date October 08, 2007
The trademark guitar and voice are in place, one of the most distinctive sounds in late 20th century music, yet it's 40 years since Creedence's heyday. So inevitably you're wondering, can the old man crank it up again? The album starts unpromisingly with 'Don't You Wish It Was True' a sedate rumination on wishful thinking. In fact side 1 (as we used to say) is workmanlike, enjoyable enough, but nothing to justify the hullabaloo. But side 2 kicks off with 'Summer of Love' and suddenly things look up, it's Fogerty, but the guitar echoes Hendrix and Clapton as much as his own playing, 'Natural Thing' follows with a straightforward celebration of love and lust, then it's back to that old time rock'n'roll for 'It Ain't Right's swipe at the pampered and privileged and 'I Can't ...

Into The Blues

CD-Charts > Music > World and Folk
by: Joan Armatrading

Release Date April 09, 2007
I have been a Joan Armatrading fan for many years therefore I will give this album the benefit of the doubt and give it another go but it lost me around track 7.

I Created Disco

CD-Charts > Music > World and Folk
by: Calvin Harris

Release Date June 18, 2007
I think some of the less favourable reviews have missed the point somewhat. I can't believe anyone bought this album having heard the singles and actually expected something serious, but there you go. Takes all sorts I spose.

Like The Mighty Boosh, Calvin Harris somehow manages to pull off the difficult trick of being very silly and very cool at the same time. That's what you're getting here, nothing more and nothing less. Dance snobs had best look elsewhere.

Just Another Diamond Day

CD-Charts > Music > World and Folk
by: Vashti Bunyan

Release Date July 24, 2000
I heard Diamond Day on the TV advert and thought 'that's Vashti Bunyan!'.I hadn't heard the album in years. It was obscure when I first heard it and I never met anyone who had even heard of her. I checked out the website, got all the history and the cd and rediscovered the magical delights of endless summer holidays by the sea, walks in the woods, gypsy caravans, picnics- all the good old fashioned values of pleasure, joy, love & peace.
Gentle, easy to sing along to, quirky rhymes and repeats. This is an album to play to kids at bedtime to ensure sweet dreams.If this works for you then try HMS Donovan as a companion album.
