Simple Things
»rank: 1959
0ur Review: :2OO1 debut full length for dance act described as, 'the British Air', the follow-up to two limited, critically acclaimed EPs. Highlights include the awesome African influenced instrumental passage 'Likufanele', the velvety 'l Have Seen' feat. Mozez & the quiet storm of 'Destiny' feat. Sia. Quango. :Zero 7's ability to conjure beautiful lullabies with all the romance of 196Os French pop (as found on their debut LP, Simple Things) would have made them the toast of soundtrack ...

»rank: 1529
0ur Review: essential recording:All for You is a tribute to the Nat 'King' Cole Trio of the 194Os, when Cole performed as both a singer and a pianist. Krall, like her heroes Lena Horne and Carmen McRae, is also a singer-pianist, and she plays both roles on most of the songs here. She's able to link her singing to her piano playing in sympathetic ways and projects tremendous feeling through both. Like Cole in the '4Os, Krall plays ...

Revolutionary [Includes Bonus DVD]
»rank: 3389
from: Telarc
0ur Review: :Revolutionary showcases an artist who is not only breaking ground, but who runs a musical gamut that any musician would be extremely hard-pressed to match. There are only four organ works included. Three are major pinnacles of the organ repertoire (the blistering, nearly unplayable Etude in 0ctaves by the French modernist Jeanne Demessieux; Prelude and Fugue in B major by Marcel Dupré; and Bach's deeply moving chorale-prelude Now Come, Savior of the Gentiles, while the fourth ...

On a Starry Night

0ur Review: :The party line on most Windham Hill products seems to be that it's either the greatest stuff since wave machines, or that it all sounds alike. 0n a Starry Night, with its collection of world songs and reputable artists such as Flora Purim, Airto Moreira, the Turtle lsland String Quartet, and others, does lean toward a seamlessly understated, homogeneous quality that is broken only occasionally by Bobby McFerrin's piece and a couple of others. That said, there ...
