The Bodyguard

The Bodyguard (1992) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Few observers expected that Whitney Houston's first big-screen role in 1992's The Bodyguard would generate a phenomenon. Not that the film itself was a phenomenon -- it was a healthy success, due not only to Houston, but to her co-star Kevin Costner's drawing power -- but the soundtrack's success was astonishing. The Bodyguard followed Houston's ...

Armed Forces

Armed Forces (1979) more music like this

by Elvis Costello & the Attraction

After releasing and touring the intense This Year's Model, Elvis Costello quickly returned to the studio with the Attractions to record his third album, Armed Forces. In contrast to the stripped-down pop and rock of his first two albums, Armed Forces boasted a detailed and textured pop production, but it was hardly lavish. However, the more ...

The Very Best of Elvis Costello

The Very Best of Elvis Costello (2001) more music like this

by Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello seems to have an aversion to presenting his work in a logical, comprehensive fashion, if the double-disc The Very Best of Elvis Costello is any indication. Like its predecessor, Girls Girls Girls, it sprawls over two discs, with very little regard to chronology or style, baffling and enticing listeners in equal measure. Although ...

The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years

The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years (2007) more music like this

by Elvis Costello

Six years after the commencement of a major Elvis Costello reissue campaign at Rhino, his catalog transferred over to Universal, which had been releasing new Elvis music since 1998's Painted from Memory. Like every one of his previous two big catalog shifts -- a campaign with Rykodisc/Demon in 1994, a jump to Rhino in 2001 -- the 2007 series is ...

Emotive (2004) more music like this

by A Perfect Circle

When Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan covered Wings' "Silly Love Songs" as a guest vocalist for the Replicants, it was amusing and well thought out. When Tool covered "No Quarter" in concert it was intense, appropriate, and staggeringly good. And when Maynard continued the tradition with the beautiful recording of Failure's "The Nurse Who Loved ...

If I Could Turn Back Time: Cher's Greatest Hits [Interscope]

If I Could Turn Back Time: Cher's Greatest Hits [Interscope] (1999) more music like this

by Cher

The 1999 compilation If I Could Turn Back Time concentrates on Cher's big hits of the late '80s and early '90s. There are some selections from the early '70s ("Half-Breed" and "Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves"), plus the Sonny & Cher "I Got You Babe," but the collection spends its time on the post-Moonstruck era. It does not do this badly, but it ...

The Very Best of Elvis Costello and the Attractions

The Very Best of Elvis Costello and the Attractions (1994) more music like this

by Elvis Costello & the Attractions

A solid complement to Ryko's Costello reissue series if you don't want to pick up each individual album. Of course, the 22 tracks (drawn from his first 11 albums and, according to the liner notes, "hand-picked by Elvis himself") also sport the crisply remastered sound featured on the rest of the series. The Very Best Of halts abruptly at 1986's ...

Diamond Mine

Diamond Mine (1989) more music like this

by Blue Rodeo

Diamond Mine is a considerably more quiet affair. Beginning with the very Dylan-esque "God and Country," a darker, introverted mood is set by their minimalist approach and slow tempos. Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide

Rock and Roll Music

Rock and Roll Music (2007) more music like this

by Elvis Costello

When Elvis Costello's back catalog from 1977-1986 shifted from Rhino to Hip-O in 2007, the third major EC reissue campaign was inaugurated by the just-the-basics hits set The Best of Elvis Costello: The First 10 Years and its companion, Rock and Roll Music, the first of a projected series of thematic trawls through Costello's back pages. Since it ...

Gold (2005) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Believe it or not, Gold is the first compilation with U.S. distribution to provide a fair and rather thorough glance at Kool & the Gang's career from 1969 through 1987. Dozens upon dozens of other sets either focus on one of the group's distinct eras or attempt clumsily to appease those who want "Jungle Boogie" and "Joanna" in one spot. The ...

Greatest Hits [WEA]

Greatest Hits [WEA] (1999) more music like this

by Cher

Released in Australia in 1999, after the massive success of "Believe," The Greatest Hits is a 19-track collection that samples the biggest hits from throughout Cher's career (including her time with Sonny), but concentrates the heaviest on her '80s/early-'90s material. This emphasis on latter-day material is emphasized by the reverse-chronological ...

State of Grace (2007) more music like this

by The Holmes Brothers

The Holmes Brothers do what they do supremely well, taking all sorts of music and making it into gospel -- a sort of musical equivalent of alchemy. There's more of it here, plenty of their own material, but with some absolutely glorious covers. They utterly re-imagine Cheap Trick's perky "I Want You to Want Me" as a piece of '50s gospel, make ...

Gold (2005) more music like this

by Cher

2005's Gold is basically an expanded version of 2003's The Very Best of Cher, running to 32 tracks instead of 21. It retails for about the same price, and unless you don't want the extra 11 songs, supplants that album as the best career-spanning collection on the market. And what a career she had. Starting in the mid-'60s with the girl group ...

Keep on Running (2003) more music like this

by Robben Ford

On his second album for the Concord Jazz label, guitarist Robben Ford stays pretty much to the formula of Blue Moon from 2001. He concentrates on playing, singing, and covering great songs (and even writes a few) with interesting arrangements, inspired solos, and crisp, clean production that lets the song shine through the players. Much has been ...

The Best of Kool & the Gang 1969-1976 (1993) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

Although Kool & the Gang became pop superstars in the 1980s on the strength of J.T. Taylor's silky voice and several catchy arrangements, R&B fans regard their true glory days as the 1970s. The New Jersey-based ensemble patented a jazz-tinged funk approach keyed by Robert "Kool" Bell's basslines, red-hot horn lines, chunky keyboards and guitar ...

The Day They Shot a Hole in the Jesus Egg (2002) more music like this

Nothing proves a band's ambitions, or probes its emotions (or both) quite like a concept album. So, after adding guitarist Jonathan Donahue and enlisting producer Dave Fridmann, the Flaming Lips focused on Wayne Coyne's ongoing quest for metaphysical enlightenment to record their first great album, In a Priest Driven Ambulance. The contributions ...

The Best of Elvis Costello & the Attractions (1985) more music like this

by Elvis Costello & the Attractions

Covering nearly all of Elvis Costello's hits prior to 1985, this album picks songs off of My Aim Is True, Imperial Bedroom, Trust, This Year's Model, Armed Forces, Get Happy!!, and a couple others. For those that simply want a taste of Costello, this album is probably the best-fitted for any reasonable purpose. All of the necessary songs are ...

Strength of My Life (1989) more music like this

by Israel Vibration

What a difference a few years can make. Fleeing Jamaica in 1982 to escape dancehall fever, then floundering on the seemingly indifferent shores of the States, Israel Vibrations split up, and slipped from view. The trio re-formed in 1987, signed to the RAS label, then set to work on a new album, their first since the Why You So Craven fiasco back ...

12" Collection & More (1999) more music like this

by Kool & the Gang

This collection of 12" tracks features a nice mix of the group's older, funkier stuff with its soul-pop hits of the '80s, including "Open Sesame," "Love and Understanding," "Get Down on It," "Tonight," and "Ladies Night." Many Gang fans will savor the tracks; casual fans may find this to be overkill. Those who have heard "Celebration" one time too ...

After two highly acclaimed releases that have set standards in new age music circles for pop romanticism, Chris Spheeris has taken his style to new heights in his new collaboration with longtime friend and musical associate Paul Voudoris. "Enchantment" is right on the mark, a fully mature effort that paraphrases much of Spheeris's previous work ...

Peace...Back by Popular Demand (2004) more music like this

by Keb' Mo'

Peace...Back by Popular Demand finds Keb' Mo' covering nine classic protest and peace songs from the 1960s and early '70s, and what is immediately apparent is how well these songs translate forward into the current political milieu. This is an album where the songs themselves are the stars, and Keb' Mo' wisely takes a low-key and measured vocal ...

Produced by Anton Sanko, Lucy Kaplansky's second album showcases her songwriting, with strong ballads such as "If You Could See" and "Still Life," a moving character sketch that has been the centerpiece of her live performances. Her unique voice, steely and supple, moves easily from irony to aching sincerity, a feat not often accomplished since ...

Love and Understanding (1992) more music like this

by George Howard

After eight albums, the late soprano saxophonist George Howard found a comfortable and solid if slightly predictable niche in the intensifying realm of instrumental R&B. On Love & Understanding, his first original GRP outing (after a re-release of 1985's Dancing in the Sun), he sticks to the basic funk and romance formulas which made him one of ...
