Cover the World: World Music Versions of Classic Pop Hits

Search: December- 1963
by: Albert Pla, Mo'Horizons, Toure Kunda, Tukuleur, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Chris Ardoi, Les Go, Angelique Kidjo, Fatal Mambo, Nenes Yannick

Release Date February 25, 2003
This is one of the most annoying world music albums out there. Next to the Rough Guide to Yodel,it's custom-made to drive away unwanted guests,solicitors,and relatives overstaying their welcomes. Putumayo had an interesting concept:cover songs from around the world. As a concept album,it works in theory. In practice,it doesn't do so well. There are a few highlights-but they are few and far between. The album works as novelty,like the "Annoying Music Show" compilations,or the Leonard Nimoy/William Shatner album.

Ladysmith Black Mambazo's "Ain't no sunshine" and "People get ready" are wonderful,and sound like gospel songs. Les Go's cover of Hall&Oates is given an Afropop vibe. Toure Kunda shows the African roots of a Peter Gabriel ... Read More:

I like the Four Seasons, but this is a waste of money. They redid a lot of their songs.

Happy Songs

Search: December- 1963
by: Various Artists

Release Date April 25, 2005
Britain is a great place for double-CD compilations on every conceivable theme and now we have a compilation of happy songs. Like many themed compilations, the musical styles vary considerably - you need an eclectic taste in music to enjoy every track here. Five decades of music are represented - the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties and the start of the new millennium. With all such compilations, it is possible to argue about what could have been included, but there is no doubt that every song here fits the compilation's basic theme.

I generally prefer the older tracks (this will surprise nobody who follows my reviews) but I'm pleased to see Kylie among the contemporary artists represented (with Can't get you outa my head). ... Read More:

Who Loves You

Search: December- 1963
by: The Four Seasons

Release Date February 28, 1995
A classic album from the 70's. I have an old cassette tape of this (snapped!)and have been scouring record shops for years for any vinyl/ CD versions. Amazon UK didn't have it listed, but I got it so easily from Amazon USA & it arrived within a week. Exactly the same tracks in the same original order. Pity about no album sleeve stuff, but that's CD's for you! The sound quality, especially on Ipod, is superb.
