Celtic Woman

: :Fueled by healthy public appetite for traditional melodies and quasi-ethnic roots, the crossover genre continues to flourish with this debut release from Ireland's Celtic Woman ensemble. The brainchild of Sharon Browne, Dave Kavanaugh (founders of Ireland's successful Celtic Collections label) and young Riverdance touring company musical director David Downes, CW's five young women musicians and vocalists offer up an ever pleasant, Eire-savvy fusion of folk, pop and classical influences. Avoiding the intrusive, club-beat/sex kitten window dressing of Bond, the ensemble tackles material that ranges from the expected (spare, lovely covers of 'Danny Boy' and 'Ave Maria') to more adventurous fare like 'Nella Fantasia' ...

The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3 : Rare And Unreleased, 1961-1991
(more) »rank: 829by: Bob Dylan
: :Bob Dylan has always been incredibly prolific, only releasing a fraction of what he records. Such a policy has made him a prime target for bootleggers over the years, finally prompting this sanctioned 1991 triple-disc dive into the Dylan vaults. It consists of rare tracks, unreleased outtakes, early versions of classics ('Times They Are a-Changin',' 'Like a Rolling Stone,' 'I Shall Be Released'), and alternate versions that sometimes cut the originals ('Idiot Wind'). A measure of Dylan's depth is his list of discarded songs ('She's Your Lover Now,' 'Blind Willie McTell,' 'Series of Dreams') that would be the crown jewels of most catalogs. ...

:Album Description:Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. essential recording:Hot on the heels of The River, his commercial breakthrough, Springsteen's decision to release the stark, demo-quality Nebraska seems downright perverse. But the genius of the album is unmistakable--with just an acoustic guitar and his howling harmonica to back him, Springsteen tells the stories of characters walking on both sides of the law, some of them directly on the line in between. The effect is that of a powerful series of black-and-white photographs--the details are bleak in and of themselves, but they ignite the imagination in ...

Simon & Garfunkel - Greatest Hits
(more) »rank: 909by: Simon & Garfunkel
: :Simon & Garfunkel have two 3-CD box sets collecting their entire career output, one with out-takes and live recordings, but the duo who were among the bestselling acts of the 1960s only recorded five studio albums throughout the entire 1960s! Their studio perfectionism is never better served than here. This greatest hits is simple and to the point, a perfect collection for anyone looking to get the basic idea (and hits) without committing to a more serious relationship. The harmonies, Paul Simon's masterful songwriting, Garfunkel's soaring choirboy voice, are all here. --Rob O'Connor
