Vitalogy – Pearl Jam

For those of you who don’t know “Pearl Jam”, please get a life!!

This was the third album from Seattle based band and it rocked!! It had amazing tracks on it which will live forever, in tracks like ‘Spin the Black Circle’…..‘Not For You’…. ‘Nothing Man’…..‘Corduroy’…..‘Better Man’ and “Immortality’ you can truly feel the same power and emotion as their debut release “Ten” (which by the way sold over 10 million copies just in U.S.)

This album is packed with great songs and hooks, overall a stunning effort.

This album seems to grow on you each time you listen to it, showing that it has tremendous longevity.

I remember “Vitalogy” being there in my car stereo for months.

This album is a must!!

X&Y – Coldplay



X&Y – Coldplay(2005)

For starters, this is a great album.

“Coldplay” was formed in London in 1997 and “X&Y” is their third studio album, which was released in 2005.

There is a uniformly high level of quality among the 13 tracks on X&Y, but some tracks still stand out. The shift from funereal organ backing to anthemic guitar is sonically arresting midway through “Fix You” lending a grand sense of power to the closing lyrics. The band makes the first single “Speed Of Sound” seem nearly effortless. It is a fitting stargazing first cousin to A Rush Of Blood To the Head’s masterpiece “Clocks.” “What If” quite effectively showcases the endearing fragility of the upper range of Chris Martin’s voice.

This album will definitely grow on you over time.

It showcases a few of the rare songs that you grow old with.!!!

A must have!!

Come Away With Me – Norah Jones


Come Away With Me – Norah Jones (2002)

Norah Jones is another new breed of musicians today.

Norah Jones is a brilliant singer-songwriter and pianist.

She made a debut album ‘Come Away with Me’, an adult contemporary vocal jazz album with a soul/folk/country tinge, that received five Grammy’s.

What gives her the edge is that, she created a complete, original style that straddles multiple musical genres with layering of a soft, intimate yet very raw soothing voice.

The album is full of great tracks. Tracks like “Don’t Know Why”, “Cold, Cold Heart”, “Feelin’ the Same Way”, “Come Away with Me”, “Turn Me On” and “The Nearness of You” will definitely send chills down your spine.

Another album, rather another artist to grow old with.

Definitely a must buy.

Them Crooked Vultures Them Crooked Vultures

Them Crooked Vultures

Ladies and gentlemen, Them Crooked Vultures — the second-best band John Paul Jones has ever been in! The Led Zeppelin guys never made much of a splash in the supergroup scene, unless you’re the kind of die-hard fan who still busts out those old records by the Honeydrippers or the Firm. But when John Paul Jones got the hard-rock supersession itch, he didn’t mess around. For Them Crooked Vultures, he hooks up with Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters) and Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age), two of Zep’s smartest disciples.

Them Crooked Vultures perfectly fit the classical supergroup model. There’s the jokey name and song titles: Interlude With ‘Ludes, Caligulove, Mind Eraser, No Chaser. There’s the occasional sense, as on the camp pomp-rock lumber of Warsaw, that you’re being exposed to a rehearsal room in-gag, with the feeling that the point of the band’s existence might have more to do with what the participants get out of it than the audience.

Not bad, give it a listen !!

Chickenfoot

chickenfoot Chickenfoot

Chickenfoot

What do you get when you blend half a Van Halen with one Red Hot Chili Pepper then spice it up with some Satriani? The result is “Chickenfoot”, a new ‘supergroup ‘.

Chickenfoot is constructed from pieces that don’t look like they should fit together but they all fit like a glove. Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony spent time together in the Mach II lineup of Van Halen, Chad Smith is the drummer of the funk/pop/rock group Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Joe Satriani is a guitar wizard known for his technical proficiency.

(For ppl who are new to this please listen to Van Halen, Red Hot Chili Peppers and of course Joe Satriani. I promise to cover each of them shortly).

This album has a great line up of tracks, it has everything (funk, groove, energy, rock, etc….)

Recommended tracks “Soap on a Rope,” “Oh Yeah,” “Get it Up” and “Sexy Little Thing,” and “My Kind Of Girl” along with “Avenida Revolution” which has a very unique sound.

Honestly this is one of the few good acts that have come up in the ‘commercial’ music industry today.

Definitely a must listen!!!

Effloresce – Oceansize

For a while, I found Effloresce a cool album but impossible to listen to for a long period of time. The complex time signatures and longer song lengths boggled my mind; I found the album passing me by.

I had no recollection of what happened. Over the past 9 months or so, I am not sure whether I underwent a musical evolution or simply matured in my taste, but I finally understand Effloresce. Maybe I just noticed the qualities of different tracks because my iPod mixed up the order of the songs and I heard some of the later songs first. Over time, Oceansize’s Effloresce has become one of my favorite albums of the time. Not a classic, but absolutely fantastic and original.

Oceansize presents a world of music drawing from post-rock, progressive, grunge, and even electronica. With open minds and virtuoso talent, their possibilities are unlimited.

Give it a shot!!

Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King – Dave Matthews Band

Honestly, you cant stop listening and loving this album. Each time you listen to it you are just gonna get deeper and deeper into it.

This is the band’s first studio album since 2005’s Stand Up and the first release since the death of saxophonist LeRoi Moore(R.I.P.).
The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 424,000 copies in its first week.
On “Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King,” the major difference is felt as much as heard in a deeper, beefier bottom end, “drum beats louder” — into a mantra, and a hook will make sure you’re grooving, tapping your foot n loosing your mind. Beauford and Lessard swing the heaviest lumber of their careers. Electric, rather than acoustic, guitars also add weight. When Matthews’ falsetto vocal threatens to float away on “Seven,” he’s brought back to earth by the band’s newfound toughness.

The album is not without its flaws: Matthews can still be a frustratingly simple-minded lyricist when it comes to lust (“Shake Me Like a Monkey”) or a frustratingly mush-minded one when it comes to the state of the world (“Funny the Way It Is”).Having Mark Batson has had some benefits: the songs are punchier, and Cavallo has given the band a bigger, more immediate sound.

Though the ensemble still flirts with exotic musical strains, they’re used judiciously. The Eastern accents on “Squirm” and the bluegrass banjo on “Alligator Pie” amp up the energy, rather than defuse it.

Believe me ladies n gentlemen when i say this, this band will leave an impression in your mind for a long long time and DMB is the worlds second costliest band (First is ‘Rolling Stones’)

This album will stay in my car stereo for a long long time.

Definitely buy, steal ,beg or borrow this one!!!

Before These Crowded Streets

leave a comment

btcs Before These Crowded Streets Crush is the song which introduce me to DMB and Before These Crowded Streets is the first album which I heard of DMB.

They mix all kind of blues ,jazz,rock n pop and blend it to there own genre.

It debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 charts after selling 421,000 units in its first week of release, which in turn knocked off the Titanic soundtrack from the top spot after a run of 16 consecutive weeks at #1.

Don’t Drink The Water is my second favorite from this album.The song is so well written and blended.

If you like to dive into the music of DMB start from this album.

Enjoy!

Black Gives Way To Blue – Alice In Chains

Black Gives Way To Blue – Alice In Chains

This is a fantastic ‘come back’ album.

Alice in Chains was responsible for some of the most eclectic heavy rock of the ‘90s, fusing together unlikely metal and vocal elements into a small but influential catalog that has aged better than the work of most of its grunge contemporaries.
Listening to Black Gives Way to Blue really is a rollercoaster-like experience both musically and emotionally, meaning that, even within songs, you really never know where the band will take you next or how that sudden drop, turn, or twist will affect you.

It was an emotional and cathartic experience for the band to record “Black Gives Way to Blue” because their dear friend, Layne Staley, couldn’t be part of that experience (R.I.P.).

Watch the official video of their single “Your Decision”.

The album’s opening track, the rumbling “All Secrets Known,” starts with the lines “A new beginning/Time to start living” before advising, “There’s no going back.” The rest of Black Gives Way to Blue follows that advice – this is a dark record about trying to pull yourself out of the chaos and pain of the past. Granted, Alice in Chains were never a sunny, friendly band even in the ‘90s, but the clenched-fist angst of Black Gives Way to Blue is considerably bleak. And yet, the album’s surging, determined songs feel downright inspiring, especially on tracks like “Check My Brain” and “A Looking in View” in which Cantrell and DuVall’s guitars fight and claw to escape the lyrics’ jet-black despair. Black Gives Way to Blue ends up being the group’s darkest and brightest album simultaneously.

Believe me guys it is really difficult to get the desire to go on making music when a friend (fellow musician) passes away. I have seen many famous bands crumble down due to this, the only reason Alice In Chains are still on the map is purely because of their awesome music and die hard fans.

Give it a shot!!….not for faint hearted!!

Pearl Jam – Backspacer

Pearl Jam – Backspacer (2009)

This is Pearl Jam’s best album of the 2000s. Continuing where Pearl Jam left off, the band matches the energy of their last outing with better, tighter songs. The lyrics (notably, all are credited to Vedder) are exceptional. No longer bound by anti-Bush righteous rage, Vedder seems to feel freed to sing songs with more empathy and positive energy. There are still plenty of songs about troubled souls and surfing, but the overall tone is warmer and filled more with empathy than anger.

The band’s playing is excellent as always, and Brendan O’Brien’s return to the fold is welcome – this album, even more than the Ten Redux cd, is proof positive that O’Brien is THE man to produce Pearl Jam’s albums. He adds a few touches of keyboards and strings here and there to augment the standard guitar/bass/drums rock format, and the result is a sound perfectly suited to Pearl Jam’s strongest batch of songs in years.

Pearl Jam fans who have been waiting for a new great album but weren’t quite convinced by their previous cd should give this one a shot, and fans who have stuck with the band all these years will not be disappointed. This is Pearl Jam for 2009 and beyond.

All That I Am – Santana



All That I Am – Santana

This is a top shelf collaboration album.

Carlos Santana is a genius and has grown with times to be an open minded musician , creating and fusing music with the new and the older generations.

Michelle Branch is back, this time with the first single from the album, “I’m Feeling You.” The songs on her own albums should sound this good.

Something about performing with one of the all time greatest rock guitarists just brings out the best in some people. Mary J. Blige (with Outkast’s Big Boi) shows more range on “My Man” than we knew she had.

Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler has never sounded any better than he does on “Just Feel Better.”

A couple of the tracks seem glaringly out of place. Joss Stone and Sean Paul sound forced on “Cry Baby Cry,” and it seems plausible that the only reason Santana’s Arista label-mate, the not-quite-American Idol, Bo Bice appears (“Brown Skin Girl”) is to promote his own album that comes out in December.

Those who long for the days of “Black Magic Woman” and “Oye Como Va,” or who don’t particularly care for today’s brand of pop music, will not be particularly happy with this album. Those who appreciate how a masterful musician has successfully reinvented himself and continues to thrive after 35+ years will enjoy adding it to their collections.

The Incident – Porcupine Tree



The Incident – Porcupine Tree

On the first few initial listens, Porcupine Tree’s The Incident has both the look and feel of being the British progressive rock band’s masterpiece.

Everything about this album — from its elegantly photographed cover art, to the fifty-five minute title track that takes up all of disc one — screams prog-rock epic. In these rather lofty aspirations, The Incident mostly succeeds. But there are a few bumps along the road to getting there.

The distribution of the songs for one thing, is, well a little weird. Clearly the epic track “The Incident,” is intended to be the focal point. But in doing so, the four tracks on the second disc, which together comprise all of twenty minutes plus change, make them feel almost like afterthoughts.

What has always separated Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree from many of their prog and metal peers, is the way PT focus on the songcraft first.

“The Incident” largely lives up to its advance billing as the rightful centerpiece of this album. It’s just a great sounding piece of work.

The bottom line? Not a good place to start. In Absentia is a suitable launch point for new listeners. If you’re already into the band, chances are you’re going to buy The Incident regardless of what the reviews say, so dig it as you will.

If On A Winter’s Night… – Sting

Composer, singer, actor, activist – Sting has won universal acclaim in all these roles, but he defies easy labelling. He’s best described as an adventurer, a risk-taker. As he himself said, “I love to put myself in new situations. I’m not afraid to be a beginner”.

This time he has taken up a different route and inspiration, showcasing his vast taste in music.

This album is a collection of covers of traditional songs, lullabies and carols from the British Isles, which will feature two original compositions by Sting, “The Hounds of Winter” and “Lullaby for an Anxious Child.” Also, if you paid attention, you probably could’ve guessed the album’s non-pop lean by the fact that it’s being put out by Deutsche Grammophon, a German classical music label owned by Universal Music Group.

If on a Winter’s Night… is music for the purpose of introspection, mood setting, or direct listening. It most likely shouldn’t be considered for party or for entertainment. Like most music with depth, it requires a certain conscious presence to fully appreciate and experience the album.

if you like holiday music n carols this one’s for you!!

One Kind Favor – BB King


One Kind Favor – BB King

This isn’t just B.B. King’s best album in years, it’s one of the strongest studio sets of his career, standing alongside classics such as Singin’ the Blues and Lucille. Where those early titles highlighted his youthful, wailing vocals and stinging guitar, this one plays to King’s current strengths: the tear-stained vibrato of his mature voice, punctuated by raunchy licks.

This album is collaborations of the Kings closest friends, They include commendable versions of his signature “The Thrill Is Gone,” with Eric Clapton trading vocal lines and licks, and Howard Tate’s “Ain’t Nobody Home,” with Daryl Hall answering King’s gritty growl. There are obscurities, too, like “Tired of Your Jive,” with a jocular Billy Gibbons, and “Hummingbird,” transformed into a melodic gem with the assistance of John Mayer

All in all, the album is more punchier, stronger, stripped down blues and the ‘King’ sounds more younger.

It doesn’t get better and bigger than this.

Bryan Adams – 11



Bryan Adams 11

He was one of the first musician who’s music actually spoke to me, I was in second grade at that time and i have never been able to let go of him ever since.

Bryan Adams…..ladies and gentlemen is one of the top cream in the music industry.

This is a great album and i hope people will look beyond “Summer of 69″.

One thing about Bryan Adams is that he is simple, down to earth and this guarantees what you see is what you get.

The songs have great lyrics, tracks like “Walk on by”, “Mysterious ways”, “She got away”, “Oxygen” etc will definitely get under your skin as Bryan sings them with such honest and pure emotion and the music is simply perfect with an acoustic, soft electric country singer-songwriter setup.

With this album Bryan Adams toured in ‘11′ venues(across the globe) in ‘11′ days, playing ‘11′ songs, This band is getting better ‘n’ better with age.Can’t wait to hear their next album.

Definitely buy this album guys !!

All Rebel Rockers – Michael Franti & Spearhead



All Rebel Rockers – Michael Franti & Spearhead

A new Michael Franti album is always reason for celebration. This man takes enough time between releases to both collect some quality songs and to get our appetite just right. All Rebel Rockers is, of course, no exception to the rule. It’s really only been two years since the awesome Yell Fire! but regardless, this album is out to beat all expectations. Recording thhe album in Kingston with legendary dub producers Sly & Robbie good things could only possibly have resulted.
The album kicks it out with a lovely dub track track called “Rude Boys Back In Town”, and it sounds fresher than anything Spearhead has ever crafted. “A Little Bit of Riddim” takes you back to some of Franti’s signature hip hop reggae blend. “Life In The City” almost feels like a Rancid track, not quite as raw though but one of the best tracks of the 13. “Hey World (Remote Control Version)” is the first real political track to surface.
It’s got a definitive beat to it that is very danceable. It shows the Robbie connection is paramount. Even on the mellower soul style songs like “High Low” you can feel the influence that bass plays. It features the wonderful vocal talents of Marie Daulne from Zap Mama. But yet another highlight is to be had with the truthful “Nobody Right Nobody Wrong”. Or the song he wrote for his son when he was heading off to college, “Have A Little Faith”.
This album will pep you up!!
Definitely a must listen!!

Ode To J. Smith – Travis


Ode To J. Smith – Travis

Twelve years ago, a little-known band from Glasgow paid £600 to record their first single All I Wanna Do is Rock on their own label, which they called Red Telephone Box.

After selling more than ten million albums, they have come a long way.

Musically too Ode to J. Smith shows the band going back to basics. With the guitars cranked up, the new album is noticeably more rocky and edgy than anything they’ve done since their early days.

Front man Fran Healy’s voice may seem as mellifluous as ever but lead guitarist Andy Dunlop certainly lets rip more than before, so that there is a mixture of texture.

There are great tracks in this album, this album has perfect distribution of songs, it has all fired up raw energy tracks as well as really melodic soulful easy listening ones too.

All in all a great album, perfect car album, it will have u pumping and grooving in the day time with tracks like “Something anything”, “Get up” etc and will have you relaxing with tracks like “Last words”, “Friends” and ”Song to self” in the evening.

Definitely a must have!!

Exile on Mainstream – Matchbox 20



Exile on Mainstream – Matchbox 20

Exile on Mainstream is a retrospective album. It includes six new tracks and they sneaked a greatest hits album, of sorts, into the package, with all eleven of their previous singles rounding out the track list.

Thing is, some of these “old hits” were hardly considered hits, even at the time of their release. And, as a fan, I’ve never felt their singles were indicative of their best work.

Of the new songs, the album opener is definitely the strongest. “How Far We’ve Come” it’s a catchy, toe-tapper and a groovy tracks and the rest of the other tracks are a good attempt as well.

The musicianship is as good as ever, and the songs are well produced and well written, but there are still only six new songs. Six songs does not make an album.

I’d recommend their previous albums!!

The Legend of Johnny Cash



The Legend of Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash was a legend, his music has inspired millions. He was the king of country music.

The Legend of Johnny Cash spans his entire career for the first time on a single compiled collection. Featuring 21 of his recordings on the Sun, Columbia, Island, and American Recordings labels, it’s the first compilation to include his work on American and has hundred tracks from the legend himself.

His Sun Records tracks begin with his first single, “Hey, Porter” and include great tracks like “Cry! Cry! Cry!” ( a Country Top), “Folsom Prison Blues”, “I Walk The Line” “Get Rhythm” (#1 Country), “Big River“, “Guess Things Happen That Way“, “Sunday Morning Coming Down“, “Man in Black,” (his nickname for the rest of his days) “One Piece at a Time“, “Highwayman“.

The Legend of Johnny Cash includes a track from that period titled “The Wanderer,” a duet with U2 written by Bono and U2, taken from the group’s 1993 release Zooropa.

Delia’s Gone” brought Cash to a new generation and won the Best Contemporary Folk Album Grammy

This amazing collection has over hundred songs and includes a biography and photo section in the box, also features songs from the beginning to the end of Johnny’s Career.

This is an excellent compilation of the songs of Johnny Cash from beginning to end. This is a must have for any Cash collector.

Definitely buy this one!!

Led Zeppelin(I) – Led Zeppelin




Led Zeppelin(I) – Led Zeppelin

Ladies and gentlemen I present to you Led Zeppelin. I can go on for days about this band. The band comprises of Jimmy Page (guitar), Robert Plant (vocals, harmonica), John Paul Jones (bass guitar, keyboards, mandolin), and John Bonham (drums).

They have inspired me and million others to pick up the guitar. For the immature crowd out there I personally rank them way above Pink Floyd, so now you know how brilliant these guys were.

This was the debut album of the legendary band “Led Zeppelin” and this was a live album with a few overdubs in it. It was recorded in October 1968 at Olympic Studios (within 36 hours) in London and released on Atlantic Records on 12 January 1969.

The album had fantastic tracks with skilled production and arrangements. Led Zeppelin had thunderous volume, sledgehammer beat, and edge-of-mayhem arrangements that made it the most influential and successful heavy-metal pioneer. From the chunky, hard riff that opens “Good Times, Bad Times” Led Zeppelin introduced the music world to something entirely new. “Babe I’m Gonna Leave You” perfectly showcases Robert Plant’s staggering vocal prowess and the groups’ brilliant arranging and playing.”Dazed & Confused” and “How Many More Times” give the album it’s epic feel and are perfect examples of how the blues informed and influenced the band from the very beginning
Individually they were all great musicians but together they were a power house packed with smoking riffs, heavy drums, groovy bass lines and bluesy high ranged versatile mystic vocals.

Believe me, you have to be a bit open and mature their music and they will completely blow your mind.

Need I say more? Get your now!!!
