Grimethorpe is Never Grim!.......2001-01-19

West Yorkshire in England consistantly produces eight to ten of the best brass bands in all the world. The Grimethorpe Collery Band's "Melody Shop" demonstrates why this band is always counted among the finest. This particular CD offers the listener a wide variety of musical tidbits. For the lovers of classical music, Grimethorpe's rendition of the Galop from Rossini's "William Tell" will certainly put you in that Lone Ranger mood!(This piece was heard in the movie "Brassed Off" with Grimethorpe providing the soundtrack for the fictional Grimley Band featured in the movie.)For 70s fans, the band does a hard-charging version of Jimmy Webb's "MacArthur Park."

There is even a hymn on the CD. Barrie Gott's "Lightwalk" (from the old hymn tune "Walk in the Light) actually comes out of the Salvation Army Brass Band literature. I doubt that most listeners ever heard a hymn swing like this one!

My personal favorite is the cut of "Lohengrin: Act 3 Prelude" by Wagner. It is hard to believe that this is a brass band- and I mean ALL BRASS- playing with such fire and technical accuracy. What a group! What a piece! What a wonderful combination!

If you own no brass band CDs, this is a good place to start a collection. It listens "easy," has some tunes you know, and is consistantly entretaining.

Surreal Masterpiece - forgotten gem.......2003-08-30

This has got to be one of my 5 favorite albums since I heard it on LP many years ago. It creates a fantastic world in miniature of Paris, Kyoto and some kind of half forgotten place only found in movies.

A young Japanese woman based in Paris makes a wonderful and dreamlike ambient pop album in the 1980s! And it only gets more charming after all these years (and it can finally be picked up affordably on CD). It's an encapsulated visit to a world that is at times atmospheric, eccentric, funny or spooky with time spent with familiar songs done unexpectedly and original material that flows beautifully.

It includes original songs and covers as diverse as Nino Rota, Suicide and David Lynch. The producers are Colin Newman (of Wire) and Marc Hollander (Aksak Maboul).

Lovely cult classic reissued.......2003-08-30

First released in 1988 and never been on CD except in Japan, this is an eclectic collection of 19 musical miniatures, the influences of which include Nino Rota, Suicide, Eraserhead, Faure.. plus her original compositions. Charmingly produced by Colin Newman (Wire) and Aksak Maboul (label boss of Crammed), this is an intimate foray into the reverie of a Kyoto girl fascinated by European culture. The title came from a rather macabre story written by Leonora Carrington, but the music is more gentle and innocent. Truly a wonderful classic.
