I Still Have a Pony

more music like this
by
Steven Wright
The reason it took deadpan, surreal, and cerebral comedian Steven Wright more than 20 years to release a follow-up to his supreme 1985 album, I Have a Pony, was that he knew that if he wanted to keep performing live he would have to have a third album's worth of material. After all, if you give his fans a recording, they'll listen to it repeatedly ...

The Hives
It's clear that a lot care goes into the Hives' seemingly immediate, fired-up sound: this is a band, after all, that has only released three full-length albums in its 11-year lifespan. While the 2002 collection Your New Favourite Band ended up winning the group many more fans thanks to its fortuitous timing with the garage rock revival craze (and ...

Evans Blue
For fans of alternative hard rock, Evans Blue will fit comfortably in personal CD towers already filled with bands like Breaking Benjamin and Taproot -- well, assuming the album wasn't burned from a friend or downloaded off iTunes. Their slick debut, The Melody and the Energetic Nature of Volume, makes use of lead singer Matisyn's passionate ...

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai

more music like this
by
The RZA
Depending on who you ask, Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai is either a piece of cool meditation on the rules of combat or an ultraviolent glamorization of thug life. The same can be said of the music chosen for the soundtrack. It is aggressive yet calculated, exuberant and orderly and smooth and jagged. With songs from the Wu Tang Clan, Kool G ...

The Best of Stonewall Jackson

more music like this
by
Stonewall Jackson
Stonewall Jackson is a neglected figure in country music. Perhaps it was his name, which gave the impression that he was a singer with a corny stage name, when it was in fact his birth name, given to him by a father who believed he was a descendent of General Stonewall Jackson and died three weeks before his son's birth. Perhaps it's because his ...

Double Standard
(1993)
more music like this
by
Andy LaVerne
Pianist Andy Laverne's idea behind this CD was to play six standards and then six "originals" based on the older tunes but reharmonized and given new melodies. Unfortunately the programming makes little sense, with only one of the newer songs actually following its original source and, because Laverne also reharmonizes the standards, there is less ...

by
Phil Keaggy/Wes King/Scott Dente
The a cappella harmonies that open the first song on this collaborative effort from three of CCM's best guitarists (Phil Keaggy, Wes King and Scott Dente from Out of the Grey) dispels any ideas that this is a showcase for guitar technique. Instead, the four vocal and seven instrumental pieces demonstrate that great musicianship involves ...

The Unsustainable Lifestyle

more music like this
by
Beauty Pill
Despite the hubbub surrounding the Cigarette Girl from the Future and You Are Right to be Afraid EPs, Beauty Pill's full-length The Unsustainable Lifestyle is not so much exciting as it is intellectual, reflecting the arch modernism that's been percolating in indie rock -- mostly on the East Coast -- since at least the late '90s. It also feels ...

Monty Python
The group's third studio album in its original packaging is a find for fans of vinyl trickery: the B-side contains two continuous tracks, leaving the stylus a 50-50 chance at playing the track you want. The group reprises several skits from the show ("Bruces," "Cheese Shop") without the hindrance of playing to a live audience: in essence, ...

Blues for Thought

by
Terry Evans
Produced by Evans' former employer Ry Cooder, Blues for Thought often sounds like a Cooder album with a great singer. Better yet, Cooder has retained the services of some A-list studio cats, but manages to make them sound like drunken denizens of a Mississippi roadhouse. With the legendary Jim Keltner leading the way with his powerhouse thwacka ...

by
Cal Tjader
Fantasy's frequent policy of combining two LPs onto one CD reissue is usually laudable and effective, giving listeners about twice as much for their money as they'd get on most reissues. This is one instance, however, in which the two LPs selected for the same disc don't necessarily go that well together. What this does is match Tjader's first ...

by
Jetenderpaul
With referents that include Kramer, the Beach Boys, and Flaming Lips, Jetenderpaul has a sound somewhere between lo-fi and hi-fi, poppier than most alt-rock but more ragged than most power pop. Much of Presents the Modal Lines seems to be recorded in mono, with the balance leaning slightly to the left, and the overall production quality feels a ...

This collection of vintage style blues is quite enjoyable. Paul Geremia, who is heard on guitar, piano, harmonica, and vocals, is joined by veteran violinist Howard Armstrong and bassist Roxy McLeod on some selections; seven of the 14 performances are unaccompanied. In addition to seven Geremia originals, there are tunes by Skip James, Leroy Carr, ...
