Taken for a Spin
Good songs are never that far away, and this winter some selections have come to my attention that are also worth yours.
There are moments that are satisfyingly Black, but like some of his more recent efforts there tend to be a few overarching themes throughout the CD, as opposed to smaller, more compartmentalized pieces.
After contending with health issues that almost stopped her from performing, Braxton’s triumphant return, “Pulse,” arrives May 4.
Rock fans will find a hidden gem in Hunter Valentine’s latest effort, “Lessons from the Late Night,” a new EP surfacing stateside on May 11.
Now that Adam Lambert’s been on the scene a bit, it’s time for the music to be stretched and pulled. “Remixes” is the first such effort.
With “Head First,” Goldfrapp returns to a more dance-based pop as compared to their fourth album, “Seventh Tree,” which had been a slower take.
With the arrival of “Hands,” the result is an assured debut for Little Boots.
Wayne G has compiled songs old and new for "Remixxer," and a few surprises result. There’s also some name power here, and one rare gem.
Most hearkening back to an earlier time seem to really eschew current musical trends. This is not so with V.V. Brown's debut album, “Travelling Like the Light.”
Corinne Bailey Rae returns with new effort “The Sea,” which builds upon its predecessor and offers some equally enjoyable pop nuggets
“Animal” follows in the same vein as “Tik Tok.” The same strengths and weaknesses can be found throughout the album.
Allison Iraheta Rises Above ‘Idol’ Fluff
Like Allen and Lambert, Iraheta can sing, but unlike the other two, she seems more comfortable with the productions and the music feels better executed on her debut, "Just Like You."

Lambert Not Much ‘Entertainment’
Are the songs worth all this bullshit hype we had to put up with leading up to the release of his debut, “For Your Entertainment?”

Robbie Williams Returns to 'Reality'
Williams returns with “Reality Killed the Video Star,” an album that sees a mix of the older bravado and sound of previous Williams efforts back in play.

Annie's Latest "Stop" Quite Entertaining

Griffin Sucks it Up for Holiday CD
The new CD covers topics such as her mom, Katie Couric, Gayle and Suze Orman, all with a lightning wit that makes for an entertaining hour of comedy.
