Bill Brewster and Frank Broughton
Universal UK, 2007
Varied and imaginative.

Melody
Sharleen Spiteri
Universal Int'l, 2008
Texas' leading lady gets a 60s makeover.
+ Sultry vocals with lush, melodramatic pop music from the fifties and sixties.
"Melody" is a short but sweet selection of tracks which bear all the hallmarks of some of the most successful music of recent years, with the added element of Sharleen's vocals. We're talking laid back, end-of-the-night tunes that could be easily at home either on the dancefloor or in the ...

Human Sexuality and the Spectrum of Love
+ Beautifully Told Story Of Love That Crosses Boundaries
+ Beautiful and intense description of today's sophisticated relationships and individuals.

Pow-Wow
Howard Alden
Arbors Records, 2008

Sans bass, sans drums there is a danger that the texture will seem thin. Even the great Joe Pass was reduced to routine plinking and plonking when he made such a record ...
