The Soul Cages
(1991)
more music like this
by
Sting
Emboldened by the enthusiastic response to the muted Nothing Like the Sun and reeling from the loss of his parents, Sting constructed The Soul Cages as a hushed mediation on mortality, loss, grief, and father/son relationships (the album is dedicated, in part, to his father; its predecessor was dedicated to his mother). Using the same basic band ...

Momentary Setback

by
Marc Broussard
Momentary Setback is undeniably a strange choice for the title of one's debut release, hardly suggesting a vote of self-confidence. Yet this first release from southern Louisiana native Marc Broussard is brimming with confidence and self-assurance. Broussard sounds many, many years older than he was at the time of the album's recording, bearing a ...

by
Ray Stevens
The eclectic career of gospel/country/comedy artist Ray Stevens creates a big challenge for anyone attempting to make a representational "best-of" album. He jumped from genre to genre as often as he switched labels, leaving compilers with mountains of unrelated song subjects and complicated licensing issues. When the 2005 Box Set was announced, ...

Looking Glass
Chances are, most listeners familiar with "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" have no idea that Looking Glass are the band that recorded the song. It was one of many instant smash hits from unknown artists that crowded the AM airwaves in the early '70s. Like almost all of their peers, Looking Glass never had another major hit, although "Jimmy Loves Mary ...

Suzzy & Maggie Roche
This collection of hymns and gospel numbers was originally scheduled for release on September 11, 2001, but global events pushed back the album and additional tracks were added. And it appears as if the wait was worthwhile. The lush vocals of the Roche sisters, along with some lovely backing vocals by a large supporting cast, give each song a ...

Rumah Sakit

by
Rumah Sakit
Rumah Sakit's forays into sound are a heady mix of mathy time signatures and dense musical passages that craftily, oftentimes dreamily, intersect. The quartet shares the same instrumentation as like-minded modern prog misfits Don Caballero: two guitars, bass, and drums, and, of course, no vocals to sully the mix. But this San Francisco outfit isn ...

Greetings from the Side

more music like this
by
Gary Jules
Greetings From the Side marked the emergence of a remarkable songwriting talent. Gary Jules arrived on this debut fully formed, an insightful lyricist whose words were accompanied by some of the most sad-eyed, exquisite melodies to come out of the decade. In that respect, the album sporadically recalls the finest soft rockers of the early '70s -- ...

There are more Ray Stevens compilations than you can shake a stick at, but most are shoddily assembled rubbish. Hip-O's 2004 collection 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection is not. It stands apart from the pack by offering all his big novelty hits from the '60s and early '70s, from "Ahabe the Arab" to "The Streak," in a logical, ...

As strange as it is to see Cledus T. Judd as a post-Celebrity Fit Club stud muffin on the cover of Boogity Boogity, the motivation and execution of this tribute to "the comic genius of Ray Stevens" is much stranger. Cledus recorded his tribute a bit before a reality television fitness show turned him to just about the hottest man ever to record a ...

So Early in the Morning: Irish Children's Songs, Rhymes & Games
(1962)
by
Clancy Children
Yet more Clancy relatives delve into the copious history of Irish music with this 46-cut set. Most of the pieces are very brief snippets from well-known songs, but the overall set gives a fair idea of what might be sung or played in the kitchen of an Irish house as late as the early '60s. Regrettably, many of the best Irish musical traditions have ...

by
Jeremiah Freed
Jeremiah Freed is a five piece rock combo that blends the post-grunge pop rock of bands like Tonic and Nickelback with uptempo blues rock. The results are mildly satisfying, making way for some good songs but ultimately not making much more of an impression beyond that. The band obvious cares about what they're playing, bringing some much needed ...

If the members of Fleetwood Mac or the Eagles had decided to assemble and produce an all-female vocal quartet, the outcome might have sounded something like Mulberry Lane. On Run Your Own Race, these four sisters from Omaha, NE blend pop, rock, folk, and country in a way that often recalls the harmony-driven soft rock groups of the '70s. The album ...

On the Outside

by
Starsailor
Starsailor's third studio album On the Outside features more of the British rock group's big, melodic, world-weary rock. This is alt-rock as conceived by bands like U2 and Echo & the Bunnymen. It's heavy on pathos and hooky choruses, and generally follows the serious artist credo of the more organ the better. Lead singer James Walsh's deadpan half ...
