"Sensuous Chicago house rhythms"
Product Description
Roy is determined to change the current perception of dance music from soulless, commercialized, and sugar coated, back to the days when Chicago house ruled the dance floor. "My approach is to merge aspects of more popular genres like soul and hip-hop into my sound because there's a younger generation that may not have grown up on dance music like I did. And it's important to have better songs at varied tempos so the tracks aren't always at 127 or 125 bpm." Includes seven unreleased exclusives and an alternate, previously vinyl-only mix. For fans of Blaze, Frankie Knuckles, MAW. Personnel include: Roy Davis, Jr.; Common, Terry Dexter.

Sousa.......2007-07-25
Sousa By the Royal Marines.......2007-03-31
When these recordings were made RM bands were still at their height in the British service and their quality was amazing. Most bands numbered over 60 in this period, and that is why many Americans may be surprsed at the volume of music produced here. This is not one of your small, though excellent regimental bands! Americans tend to think that British military band instrumentation is on the thin side. Not so here! Of course Sousa always sounds best with either the Allentown band or the US Marine band.
This CD is evidence of how popular Sousa has always been in the UK, and with RM bands in particular. The selection here on two CDs covers most of the standard Sousa fair, with a few different selections here and there. Unfortunatley there are none of Sousa's fine transcriptions for classical music, or selections from his operettas. This music is always wonderful to have in combination with the marches as it shows how much variety he was capable of in his compositions. For that kind of concert the reader is referred to the very fine collection of Sousa music being done under the Naxos label by the Band of the Royal Artillery.
Here you will find a solid collection of Sousa's great marches. Roughly a third of those 136 compositions are contained here. The Royal Marines give a sharpe and clear sound to these works which should certainly inspire. You will also get a very nice idea how RM bands sounded back in the 1980s. Graham Hoskins was a fine director of music, typical of the inhouse genius of the Royal Marines Band Service at that time. He took this band on a USA tour in 1985 with the Arygll & Sutherland Highlanders. Devotees of Sousa should enjoy these spirited versions of the march king's music as performed across the pond.

Buy this album as a token of love to the producer who had the cajones to put Julia Murney on an album celebrating the last 100 years of Broadway divas.
Because SHE is one of the greatest voices of the decade!

A Sample of Minnie's Memphis Blues.......2007-02-02
IN MY GIRLISH DAYS: THE BEST OF MEMPHIS MINNIE (from "Blues Forever" series) consists of 18 songs recorded 1929-1952; tracks are not in chronological order. Disc packaged in clear jewel case; total running time: 49:35. Booklet includes a timeline of Minnie's life and track information (including recording dates and musician personnel); not included are chart positions, additional photographs, or discography (songwriting credits provided are of questionable accuracy). Sound quality is decent.
At less than 50 minutes, this album would be better if it included more music. There are also no songs with vocals by collaborator (& second husband) "Kansas Joe" McCoy or (third husband) "Little Son Joe" Lawler.
These are country/rural ("downhome") Blues, bearing no obvious similarity to the music of Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith, or Ida Cox. Memphis Minnie's style is most comparable to Robert Johnson or John Lee Hooker.
