R.E.M.
Warner Bros / Wea, 2008
True Alternative Rock
I've never been a huge fan of REM beyond the radio-friendly greatest hits. I bought this albumn on a whim, loved it, and am now exploring what I've been missing. I'm a metal-head b convention, but this albumn has been refreshing, interesting, and catchy as hell. I ...

Raising Sand
Robert Plant, Alison Krauss
Rounder, 2007
Music that captures the imagination
If you are expecting Led Zeppelin, or Plant's earlier solo work, well, this isn't it. This is different. This is music to listen to, on a hot summer day, sitting on the old tire-swing among the sun-dappled trees, somewhere in Georgia. It's music to listen to at ...

It's Time--Michael Buble
Michael Buble's remakes of various songs have invariably been successful. This CD is no exception. I highly recommend purchasing it.

Family
LeAnn Rimes

"Family" shows Rimes' versatility
Rimes has always appealed to women and her release is no exception. The new cd "Family" is full of meaningful and enjoyable songs that I just can't turn off.

Julianne Hough
Julianne Hough
Mercury Nashville, 2008
Upbeat country that stays with you
Julianne Hough is amazing -- she's sings as well as she dances -- and Dancing with The Stars fans know that that is saying something. The songs are upbeat and catchy and the best one, "That Song in My Head," does just what the lyrics say -- it stays in your head all ...

Mercury, 2008
Let it sink in
I originally tried to listen to this album all the way through late at night as I was falling asleep and the first thirty seconds of 'The Rip' originally had me feeling like I was slipping into a bizarre waking dream. It was too overwhelming and I had to stop there. ...

Raising Sand
Robert Plant, Alison Krauss
Rounder, 2007
Absolutely Haunting!
I think Led-heads who are excited about a new Robert Plant CD will be extremely disappointed. Mr. Plant is no longer a spring chicken or a wild rooster for that matter. He's a mature artist looking to spread his wings. I think he's found a new groove! Isn't that ...

Great record! So what, Mutt wasn't around, so the album sounds different. The song quality is excellent. The lyrics are great! I can listen to this whole cd with no problem at all. What I don't understand, is what these 1 star reviews are here for? Rock N' Roll is ...

La Vida... Es un Ratico
Juanes
Universal Latino, 2007
Personal & Inspiring
A beautiful cd from beginning to end. No surprises, the bulletproof classic Juanes sound is served as the main dish, but listen carefully and there's something new brewing. The base and drum for this production are excellent as well. Out of all his CDs I think ...

Change Your Thoughts Meditation CD: Do the Tao Now!
Wayne W. Dyer
Hay House, 2007
A Must Own!
I absolutely adore Dr. Dyer, and found the 81 principle of the TAO, unable to grasp, until I received this unabridged CD. The tenants are meant to be read one or perhaps two a day, and then to meditate on each. Dr. Dyer is truly a gift to us all, and I hope he is ...

something new
This album has a different feel from Death Cab's past work. It seems that over time they have added more instrumentation. This album is the next step in that evolution. As usual the lyrical content is top-notch. If you are hardcore into Death Cab's older stuff, be ...

Beautiful new album hat will have you listening again and again
I wasn't sure about the concept of this album BEFORE I bought it, but after listening to it for a week, I must say it's the best Carly has put out since Coming Around Again. The key modulations -- which she handles beautifully for a woman of 63 -- are reminiscent of ...

Sex And The City: Music From the Original Motion Picture
Original Soundtrack
New Line Records, 2008
suprising..very good
While some folks are probably looking at this soundtrack as just another attempt to cash in on the accompanying movie. It's obvious that this cd was put together for any and all that enjoy a cd that is solid from start to end.
I had already heard about the Fergie ...
