50 Years of Hits

by
George Jones
The idea sounds good, and it may even make sense: collect one song from each of the 50 years that George Jones has been recording, and present them in one exhaustive triple-disc set, appropriately titled 50 Years of Hits. Seems simple enough, but in practice, the set doesn't quite work, either as an overview of Jones' career or as an enjoyable ...

Three years after Gram Parsons' untimely death, his frequent duet partner Emmylou Harris helped arrange for the release of this collection of outtakes -- three songs he cut with Harris for his final solo album Grievous Angel in 1973, and nine others recorded live in the studio with The Flying Burrito Brothers in 1970. Anyone hoping to find the ...

The Tractors
Country Christmas gets wrapped up boogie blues rockin' style thanks to The Tractors' Have Yourself a Tractor's Christmas. A little manipulative, perhaps, to redo their hit single "Baby Likes to Rock It" under the guise of "Santa Claus Is Comin' (In a Boogie Woogie Choo Choo Train)" but, with the exception of a coupl'a slow cookers, this blend of ...

Aliens
(1987)
by
James Horner
When James Horner accepted scoring duties for James Cameron's sci-fi epic Aliens, the composer was an inexperienced action specialist best known for two unremarkable Star Trek sequel scores that owed much and added little to Jerry Goldsmith's famous theme for Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Aliens, too, was a sequel to a Goldsmith scored ...

Four years after their acclaimed debut, the Tractors finally delivered their full-fledged follow-up, Farmers in a Changing World, in late 1998. (A holiday album, Have Yourself a Tractors Christmas, appeared in 1995, but that doesn't count as a sequel to The Tractors). During that time, contemporary country became even more infatuated with the pop ...

Above the Rim

by
Original Soundtrack
The soundtrack Above the Rim is an example of how all soundtracks should sound. Coordinated by Dr. Dre, the record is a virtual catalog of the cutting edge of hip-hop and urban R&B in 1994, featuring stars as well as unknowns that wind up making a big impression. Every artist turns in a first-rate song, but the real attraction of the record is ...

Elmore Leonard stories are inherently stylish, as are many of the films based on his books. Unfortunately, that's not always the case with the soundtracks. Jackie Brown, Quentin Tarantino's adaptation of Rum Punch, was the exception that proved the rule -- a smart, unpredictable collection of '70s soul that captured the feeling of the film and ...

Apart from the Tractors who whoop it up splendidly for "Swingin' Home for Christmas," and no one here -- including Alan Jackson, Steve Wariner, Radney Foster, Lee Roy Parnell, Michele Wright, and Diamond Rio -- is having any fun at all, and there are few things more monotonous than another overly reverential country Christmas album.

George Jones
The title track to The Race Is On is one of George Jones' biggest hits. With its galloping beat and clever, funny lyrics, the single gives the impression that the rest of the record is a return to Jones' honky tonk roots. Although there are several up-tempo numbers, The Race Is On is dominated by ballads, like the majority of his UA albums. But ...
