Gustavo Santaolalla/Various Artists
What is most notable about the soundtrack to Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain is the original score by Argentinian music wizard Gustavo Santaolalla (producer of the grand Café Tacuba recordings and a songwriter in his own right, as evidenced by his two albums, Gas and Ronroco). His interludes and cues evoke the very landscape that Lee portrays in his ...

The Proclaimers
Since the Scottish Reid brothers' existing catalog consisted of four good but spotty albums as of this compilation's release in 2002, The Best of the Proclaimers is not only a near-perfect summary of their most significant songs, but is the only purchase any but die-hard fans will need. The 20-track collection runs 70 minutes and not only includes ...

Hip-O's 2005 double-disc set Classic Country Gold casts a wide net. It begins with Hank Williams' 1951 hit "Hey, Good Lookin'" and ends with Patty Loveless' 1989 hit "Timber, I'm Falling in Love." In between those two tracks are 34 songs, most of them indeed living up to "classic" status. While this doesn't necessarily make for the most consistent ...

Full Circle

by
Randy Travis
Randy Travis' Full Circle is a return to form, of sorts. Although he never really left the country charts, his mid-'90s albums suffered from a tendency to sound a bit too similar too each other. Full Circle solves that problem by simultaneously reaching back into his hardcore honky tonk roots and moving toward more contemporary material, such as ...

Original Soundtrack
The 1996 Miramax release Swingers helped in part to launch the neo-swing trend of the late '90s. The soundtrack that accompanied the film not only introduced swing revivalists such as Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, but delved into classic swing, country, and funk to create an eclectic yet surprisingly cohesive album. Dean Martin's "You're Nobody 'Til ...

While this budget double-disc of hits is fine and has many of Faron Young's hit singles, it's far less definitive than Capitol's double-disc set The Complete Capitol Hits of Faron Young, or the Country Music Foundations' Live Fast, Love Hard: Original Capitol Recordings, 1952-1962. The AIM marketing recordings also fare less well in sound quality ...

The light, whimsical "Love Makes the World Go Round" was like a breath of fresh air, it soared to #11 Pop in March of 1966 prompting this LP. Jackson sung in a light, fluttery tenor and would slide in and out of falsetto for emphasis. This 12-song collection is loaded with young, adult love songs that are enhanced by Deon's vocal phrasings. His ...

Since The Door Is Still Open to My Heart was Dean Martin's seventh Reprise album and (Remember Me) I'm the One Who Loves You his ninth, one may reasonably ask why Collectors' Choice Music didn't pair the former with his eighth album, Dean Martin Hits Again, instead. The answer is simple. Reprise was not above repeating tracks from one album to ...
