Gainsbourg...Forever

CD-Charts > Music > Rock
by: Serge Gainsbourg

Release Date February 14, 2001
This is a great, relatively low priced introduction to Serge Gainsbourg's greatest hits. Personally I think his earlier works shine much brighter than the later stuff (when he was blazing trails and creating trends rather than following them), so I play the first CD almost exclusively, but it is so strong that it's worth buying the double album. I recently "discovered" Serge and it is amazing what a cutting edge musician he was: sampling, incorporating carribean and African beats, and rapping (in French) in the '60's and early '70's; way before any of those techniques made it to the mainstream of American music. There are songs from 1968 that sound so current, they could be hits today. Also, I'm partial to his really early recordings when ... Read More:

Onde Brilhem os Olhos Seus

One of the best albums I bought in years. A truly heartfelt tribute to one of Brazil's greatest singers, Nara Leão. Takai is a wonderful singer. I hope we get more recordings from her soon.

Comme Ils L'Imaginent

CD-Charts > Music > Rock
by: Véronique Sanson

Release Date March 30, 1995
I picked up this CD a few years ago at a stop over at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. I have listened to it a million times since then... I love her powerful voice and the wonderful rhythm. I'm ready for a new Sanson CD -- and just noticed that Amazon has other Sanson CDs!

CD-Charts > Music > Rock
by: Vasco Rossi

Release Date January 28, 2003
I was introduced to Vasco Rossi by an Italian I was working with. This music is amazing. I encourage all to listen, don't worry if you do not understand Italian, the music speaks for itself.

Pay attention to the different instruments, especially in the background. The composition is like hearing music for the first time. There is a richness in this music that American artists have long forgotten.

Mr. Rossi has quite a history, read Wikipedia, but do yourself a favor. Listen to Benvenuto, Vivere, and Siamo Soli. If you aren't excited by these pieces, save your time and go back to Mylie Cyrus.

Cambodian Rocks

by: Various Artists

Release Date July 24, 2000
Unfortunately, as mentioned in a previous review, I'm unable to take this release seriously. It is heavily over-dubbed with 'modern sounds'. Anyone with an interest in 60's / early 70's Camodian psych should give this a miss, and check out the excellent Khmer Rocks compilations of the same name, Volumes 1 - 4, instead.

200 Years After the Last War

CD-Charts > Music > Rock
by: Omega

Release Date March 12, 1999
After almost 30 years, Omega's masterpiece was finally released on a remastered and repackaged disk. The Hungarian government found the title song offensive to their socialist ideology that existed back than, also the song Sexapo made references to the director of the Hungarian Record Company and his inside politics. Instead "200 years..." the album "Elo Omega" was released, which was recorded on the band's Hungarian tour. The 2 songs mentioned, were cut, the rest was put on the record in the same order. "200 hundred years..." is a brilliant album, solid rock and roll with beautiful ballads. This was the very first recording by Omega after a major line change within the band. The music media and industry quickly dismissed ... Read More:
