The Flying Club Cup
»rank: 2790
0ur Review: :Since the release of Gulag 0rchestra in May of 2OO6, Beirut has done a tsunami of interviews, photoshoots and features. This great fervor developed around an album conceived and constructed in a teenager s New Mexico bedroom. Six months of recording has led to The Flying Club Cup, an homage to France s culture, fashion, history, and music. Two years ago, Zach Condon immersed himself in Balkan folk, absorbed sounds, scales, styles, and the sonic joys ...

Wide Open Spaces
»rank: 1654
0ur Review: essential recording:The major-label debut from this Texas trio proves their instrumental abilities, blending more traditional twang with slow melodic blues, foot-tapping rockabilly, and bluegrass-inspired pop harmonies. From the opener, 'l Can Love You Better,' the Chicks let their love of music and genuine joy shine through while the energy on this album reminds one of Carlene Carter. Solid musicianship, topnotch vocal performances, and infectious pop hooks make this a stellar project. --Paula Ghergia

Jim Croce Photographs & Memories: His Greatest Hits
»rank: 2514
0ur Review: :Until his untimely death, Jim Croce was a force to be reckoned with on radio playlists. Photographs & Memories repackages some of his best work. Romantic acoustic-oriented songs were his hallmark, and songs like 'Time in a Bottle,' were huge hits because of their easy sentimentality. 'l Got a Name' was the singer as well-worn folk traveler, while 'Bad, Bad Leroy Brown' and even 'You Don't Mess Around with Jim' followed standard boogie chord progressions, albeit with ...

Modern Times

Like Time 0ut of Mind and Love and Theft before it, Modern Times is a rootsy, blues-soaked pool of the purest form of Americana--skipping the progressive bells or whistles for an ...
