Sarah Brightman "The Harem World Tour live from Las Vegas" Album Review
AMAZING! She is so much better live!
This CD rocks! This is Sarah Brightman on her Harem World Tour, and this performance was recorded at her stop in Las Vegas. The first two tracks, "Kama Surta" and "Harem Overture" debut from her newest album, entitled HAREM. The two tracks are connected, but in the actual Harem Tour, the full piece "Harem" is sung. If you go to www.youtube.com and type in "Harem Tour" in the Search Bar, you can see live videos. I would prefer that the album has placed "Harem" instead of these other two tracks. The third track, "It's A Beautiful Day", is from Madame Butterfly, written by Puccini. This version is Brightman's twist, which some more pop and some English. It's pretty cool. The fourth track on the album, "Dust in the Wind" is from EDEN, an amazing album. Track 5 is, "Who Wants to Live Forever", and it seems as though Brightman never creates a tour without putting this piece in it. It's a beautiful tribute to Queen's rendition. Track Six is "Anytime, Anywhere", also from EDEN. I'm not really into the Foreign Language - English songs, but this works very well, especially because she ends the song with the classical foreign language. The seventh track is Brightman's rendition of Dvorak's "Song to the Moon", or "La Luna". The track is beautiful! The eighth track is Puccini's "Nessun Dorma", and Sarah masters this beautifully! There is no other soprano I know that can sing this piece one octave up and can hold the ending note for ever!!! Track 9 is "The War is Over", which is followed by "Free", both from HAREM. Track 11 is "A Whiter Shade of Pale", from LA LUNA. It's beautiful to listen to. Sarah's version is very gentle, but has a lot of energy in the chorus. The twelfth track on this album is "Twisted Every Way", followed by an instrumental version of "The Phantom of the Opera" Theme. The next track is "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again", which is extended at the end, in which you hear some men cry out "WE LOVE YOU SARAH!", and she responds cutely with an, "I love you, too." The audience laughs! Track 14 is "Time to Say Goodbye", the duet that made Andrea Bocelli famous, and skyrocketed as the number one single sold in German history! The last live track on the album is "A Question of Honour", from "Fly", which is awesome! The last track on the album is a bonus track, which I don't really prefer. However, the whole album is simply amazing. I much prefer Sarah when she is live. She has a more magical quality! If you love Sarah Brightman, then you will love this album.
ALSO RECOMMENDED : Since there is so much Sarah Brightman to choose from, I also recommend EDEN, TIME TO SAY GOODBYE, LA LUNA, CLASSICS, and DIVA.

The Go "Betweens" Album Review
Simplicity+Melody= Fantastic!
I'd read about this album in the British music press. Critics hailed this effort and subsequently added it to their "Best of 2005" lists. I didn't know what to make of this band. Then, I saw that they were on the "Left of the Dial" box set. My interest was substantially elevated at that point. Then, while shopping for CDs one day, I spotted this album in the bargain bin. I snatched it up to see whether it was up the hype.
Synopsis: The first song, "Here Comes a City," effectively grabs you by the collar and never lets go. Sure, its got that line about Dostoyevsky that seems to define the wonderful lyrics that embody the album, but its got much more. It's got drive and a kick, and its an opener that's up there with the rest of them. Naturally, it raises the bar for the rest of the album.
The tracks wear on, and things work quite well. "Born To A Family" exemplifies the band's adept use of melodies and simplicity. "Born to a family, a family of workers" may not seem like the grandest line ever, but the way its executed ensures that it'll turn into an earworm of the most mirthful sort. To me, it's a highlight. Others may not agree, but oh well; I like it.
More songs. A few of the tracks in the middle, as some have suggested below, are muddled by the mastering. Indeed. The compression tends to hurt songs by rendering them overloud and distorted. Again: It doesn't kill the song , but it makes things slightly less pleasant.
Then we hit some more winners. "Darlinghurst Nights" begins in a slow, unassuming manner. Although the tempo doesn't exactly explode over the course of the song, new elements slowly pop into the mix. First we get a rather funky guitar that gives the understated track a bit of a groove. By the latter half of the song, the horns come in. By the time the track ends, its been completely warped by all these additions. It doesn't hurt that the song itself was pretty good to begin with.
"Lavender" begins with a bit of a sproing, since the drum machine that kicks off the track is not of the monotonous bomp-tshk-bomp-tshk kind. Then, out of nowhere, the guitar pops up. It's got a bit of a country flavour, and that creates a tasteful contrast with the synthesized rhythm. Afterwards, the lyrics come in and they're mighty fine (references to a gal that's good in bed, well read and thinks about Tazmania).
People seem to like "The Status" Personally, I didn't see anything grand about it. "This Night's For You," on the other hand, is fantastic. It's poppy to the max. Melodic, and with a bit of Beach Boys flair too. As the song wears on, there are moments when dirty chords are used to a stirring effect. Great track. And the closer, "The Mountains Near Dellray," is also at par with the rest of the album. It's got beats, a simple guitar and a great organ that provides stunning texture. It's definitely got a mood, that's for sure! The mellowness is confirmed as the song ends, leaving us with spacey outro that fades into nothingness/
The bonus disc of live tracks is just gravy, as far as I'm concerned. All the tracks are enjoyable, if not a bit too sparse. As far as bonus material goes, its rather delightful.
Overall, this album was quite pleasant and pleasing. The first time I listened to it, I was amazed at the sheer quantity of great melodies that inhabited this record's confines. The second time I listened to it, I was gripped by the way the simple instrumentation could create such a wonderful musical environment. Beautiful stuff, and definitely worth purchasing by fans of well-crafted music.

John Wilkes Booze "Five Pillars of Soul" Album Review
Bile
The lead vocals on this album have to be the worst that I have ever, ever heard. Musical abortion that sounds about as fake as they come. It just kind of seems like a band that ripped things off from other people to make their own stuff, but they didn't realized that Insincerity is so obvious in an album. For the love of god, don't buy this tripe.
