Ships (2006) more music like this

by Danielson

Since the debut of his legendary audio senior thesis for Rutgers in 1995, Daniel Smith has been crafting an alternate universe where the most wildly subversive, joyous, and demented music in the non-secular world is filtered through a Christian viewfinder, albeit a decidedly skewed one. The success of Ships, the latest from the prolific, giant ...

You Are My Flower

You Are My Flower (1999) more music like this

by Ida

Ostensibly a children's album, You Are My Flower is as warm and engaging as any of Ida's more "mature" works -- a collection of traditional folk and country tunes culled from the songbooks of the Carter Family, Leadbelly, and others, this sweet, lovely set is family-friendly in the truest sense, appealing to young listeners while never so cutesy ...

This American Life: Stories of Hope and Fear

This American Life: Stories of Hope and Fear (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

This two-CD set presents 11 stories originally heard on the popular syndicated public radio show This American Life . If you're familiar with the program, you'll know what to expect here to some degree: diverse, often eccentric, often real-life tales, laid over whimsical pieces of music and sound effects used for accentuation and contrast. Even ...

Alligator Stomp, Vol. 1

Alligator Stomp, Vol. 1 (1990) more music like this

by Various Artists

Alligator Stomp is a stellar collection of zydeco, featuring stars and lesser-known musicians. The disc is filled with great, rollicking music -- there simply isn't a weak moment on the disc, and it provides an excellent introduction to one of America's most distinctive musics.

Zydeco Essentials

Zydeco Essentials (1999) more music like this

Alligator Stomp, Vol. 2

Alligator Stomp, Vol. 2 (1991) more music like this

by Various Artists

If you're exploring the pleasures of Louisiana's zydeco and Cajun music, one of the best starting points is Rhino's excellent Alligator Stomp series of the 1990s. Vol. 2's main flaw is its failure to list recording dates -- even if Rhino couldn't find exact recording dates for all of its 18 songs, couldn't the label have at least given the years ...

Tri-Danielson, Vol. 1 (Alpha)

Tri-Danielson, Vol. 1 (Alpha) (1998) more music like this

by Danielson Famile

Beginning with the family's repeated chant of "Tri-Danielson," followed by a round of hooting and applause, the Danielson Famile's third LP is the one that sees them at their strongest. This is their brightest collection of songs so far, and it's definitely the album to start with. Beginning with "Southern Paws" -- a simple acoustic melody with ...

Blues Masters, Vol. 11: Classic Blues Women (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

Although it is now a male dominated field, the earliest to record and have success in the blues field were women. This volume not only collects up many of the great recordings by these women (Mamie, Trixie and Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, Sippie Wallace, Ma Rainey), but also holds the distinction in the series of being one of the few that offers ...

A Prayer for Every Hour

A Prayer for Every Hour (1996) more music like this

by Danielson Famile

A relatively stripped-down record in comparison to their later works, this is the finished product that served as lead Danielson Famile member Daniel Smith's senior thesis at Rutgers University. With guitars, bells, drums, and Smith's trademark yelp, the album takes listeners through 24 tracks (the prayers for every hour). The songs themselves are ...

Zydeco [Putumayo] (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

Zydeco is the favored social and dance music of Louisiana's Creole population, who are the descendants of African and Afro-Caribbean slaves and free people of color. The related Cajun style occupies a similar place in the lives of a nearby white community, whose ancestors were a colony of French settlers called Acadians. Creoles are proud of their ...

Fetch the Compass Kids (2001) more music like this

by Danielson Famile

Never quite at home on the overtly Christian record label Tooth & Nail, the Danielson Famile moved over to the Indiana-based indie label Secretly Canadian for their fifth release, Fetch the Compass Kids. Tooth & Nail, with its roster of mostly punk and emo bands, never seemed to know what to do with Danielson's quirky, largely unclassifiable pop, ...

Tell Another Joke at the Ol' Choppin' Block (1997) more music like this

by Danielson Family

Daniel Smith and family jump out of the gate with fervent heavens-praising energy and never let up on Tell Another Joke at the Ol' Choppin' Block. Sounding like a Pixies tribute band performing at a carnival sideshow, Smith and company spout strange lyrics that give props to the Lord, examine mother-child bonds, and explore the "deep kind of love" ...

Love Love Love (2003) more music like this

by Glass Candy

A brief and brazen debut album, Glass Candy and the Shattered Theater's Love Love Love smashes the band's glam rock and no wave influences into pieces and reassembles them into something even more striking than either of those styles on its own. Striking is also an apt way to describe Ida No's heavily phased, scary yet sexy shrieks, wails, and ...

On its second Tiger Style Records release, New York folk-pop band Ida are once again able to re-create the intimacy and magic of its live shows. The record is one of the band's cleanest to date, with Dan Littleton, Elizabeth Mitchell, and Karla Schickele leading the attack. By this point, the band's music had been invigorated by the haunting ...

The first of two completed albums liberated from the clutches of Capitol in the wake of a recording deal gone bad, Will You Find Me projects all the confidence of the major label debut it was intended to be -- Ida's most cohesive and haunting album to date, it's also their most direct, articulating the messy entanglements of desire and heartbreak ...
