We Started Nothing

CD-Charts > Music > Refinements
by: The Ting Tings

Release Date June 03, 2008
Like most of the albums I have ever bought, "We Started Nothing" by the Ting Tings- was refreshingly different. I like the beats and the lyrics of all of the songs and the titles of the songs were very creative! I've already reccommended to my friends that they buy the cd.

Raw Footage

CD-Charts > Music > Refinements
by: Ice Cube

Release Date August 19, 2008
There should not be any criticism towards this album, period. All of you should be thankful that Cube gave us this album in a time when rap has fallen way off. People need to stop buying that corny rap and pick this up. Sure, it sounds a little "southern" w/ some of the production, but personally I think it is good. Mixing west with the south works. His style really hasn't changed that much either, just evolved over time. Cube, like many older veteran rappers now, has matured. So if anything sounds a lil' different it's only caz of that. He speaks on a lot of important issues, just like back in the day. Maybe he did a track or 2 to attract younger audiences, but they still fit him. He's been wearin' those locs since way way back.... ... Read More:

Minutes to Midnight

CD-Charts > Music > Refinements
by: Linkin Park

Release Date May 15, 2007
Okay, I will be short and to the point. This is a different CD than the previous ones. The songs, "Given Up" and "Bleed it Out" are reminiscent of Linkin Park's traditional style. There is much less Mike Shinoda presence (unfortunately). However, all hope is not lost. The songs "Leave Out All The Rest" and "Shadow of The Day" are a little "emo" some might say, but they are very well written and full of a lot of meaning. The song "Hands Held High" is VERY excellent Mike Shinoda creation. To the listener it is obviously a giant political message - and very well done at that. It's vague, yet at the same time everyone knows what is being discussed/attacked. The rest of the songs are also good, but I'd say they aren't as strong as the rest. Overall I'd ... Read More:

from: Telarc

Release Date August 12, 2008
One Kind Favor (2008, Geffen) B.B. King's twenty-fourth studio album. ***1/2

Long hailed as the "King of the Blues," B.B. King is back with an array of blues covers. There's nothing out of the ordinary and his style hasn't changed much, and what's surprising is that even at eighty-two years old, his signature voice doesn't sound weathered at all. It's a bit of a slow-starter, as One Kind Favor eases in with the jazz-flavored "See That My Grave is Kept Clean." The most invigorating and soulful moments don't come until the second act, really opening up with "The World is Going Wrong" and "Blues Before Sunrise." The ensuing songs are equally rattling and rollicking, especially "Backwater Blues" which features King's best and most convincing vocal ... Read More:

Love On The Inside

by: Sugarland

Release Date July 29, 2008
Good, but not nearly as good as their first (which I still think is their best) CD. And I don't think it matches up to their second CD either. And the "All I want to do" track is really, really annoying!

One Day As A Lion

CD-Charts > Music > Refinements
by: One Day as a Lion

Release Date July 22, 2008
One Day As a Lion (2008, Anti) One Day As a Lion's first studio EP. ****

For a long time there was talk of Zack de la Rocha releasing solo material (apparently material he had been working on even before Rage Against the Machine split), and even more talk when he worked with Trent Reznor. But now we get some sort of taste of what de la Rocha is like on his own, but he equally shares the stage with Jon Theodore, former Mars Volta drummer. As expected, One Day As a Lion is explosive, with de la Rocha spitting hateful messages at the powers-that-be while taking a minimalist effect. The idea is fantastic; Theodore's drumming is superb, playing a central role in not only developing an effective beat, but also being fairly responsible for filling the ... Read More:

Here and Gone

CD-Charts > Music > Refinements
by: David Sanborn

Release Date August 12, 2008
I love David Sanborn whether he's playing sweet and slow or hot and fast. This tribute CD's got some of jazz standards and heavy hitters from other genres as guests. It's 9 songs and about 2 minutes--could be a bit longer. Still it's a very listenable CD, maybe not Sanborn's best, but well worth having on the shelf.

My favorites:

I'm Gonna Move to the Outskirts of Town--featuring Eric Clapton
Basin Street Blues
I Believe it to my Soul--Joss Stone

Okay, it's all good, but these are my current faves. Give this one a listen.

I ordered this CD with Pepsi points. It arrived in exactly seven days.

I plan to order more CD's through Amazon. And ya gotta love the Foo Fighters!
