The WB network's popular series finds California fashion designer Ava Gregory's (Lori Loughlin) hip beachfront lifestyle turned topsy-turvy when a family tragedy spurs her to take custody of her niece and two nephews. The show's buoyant soundtrack plays off those often bittersweet familial concerns with a collection that's by turns spunky and introspective. The energetic punk-pop of Bowling for Soup's "Undertow," Collective Soul's "General Attitude" and "All Downhill From Here" from Florida's New Found Glory kick the collection off in high gear, before the blue-eyed, teeny-pop-soul of Jesse McCartney's hit "Get Your Shine On" breaks the spell. Alt.vets Lisa Loeb and New York's Ivy offer quieter, more poignant intrigues, while Kenny Wayne Shepherd dishes up the arena-scaled "Alive" and newcomers Kristian Leontiou and Ringside round out the collection with haunting R&B angst and club-friendly grooves, respectively. --Jerry McCulley

I love it !.......2007-02-18

This is a wonderful item contributing to Summerland. I watch Summerland on The-n. It is a wonderful show. It used to be on all the time, now it is on at 5 am on Sunday. I stay up just to watch Summerland. It is a very pleasing show and product.

Not as Good as I Hoped, But It's Not Bad.......2005-12-30

I like this CD, but the music isn't as good as what I'd hoped. Good for Summerland fans though.

this sound track rocks. if you havent bought it yet what are you waiting for?! i especially like new found glory and jesse but the whole cd is awesome.

Summerland-ness.......2005-08-18

Even if you don't watch Summerland this soundtrack is more than worth picking up, if only for the All American Rejects "My Paper Heart" and New Found Glory's "All Downhill From Here." Jesse McCartney, one of the stars, proves he is multitalented with "Get Your Shine On." Buy this cd and immerse yourself in all it's Summerland-ness!

Back in the 1980s, Jon Dee Graham was a member of the legendary Texas roots-rockers True Believers, a nom de plume that turns out to have been a perfect fit. Graham's sophomore release, Summerland, is a rousing 12-song collection of passionate rock & roll that looks a dangerous world square in the face yet still finds reasons to believe. Graham applies his scratchy growl to literate story songs reminiscent of those by Freedy Johnston, say, or Fred Eaglesmith, but unlike those peers, he isn't afraid to surround voice and song with the kind of dramatic and smoldering electric guitars that turn his singer-songwriter moves into grand rock gestures. It's the force of those guitars that lets Graham wade grimly through the "red meat and wreckage" on "Black Box" and still want to "Look Up" at "lightning in the clouds" to embrace this "Big Sweet Life," no matter how scary and unpredictable it becomes. --David Cantwell

Beautiful, varied and fun!.......1999-04-13

After having the pleasure of seeing Jon Dee Graham perform live (which was a treat in itself!), I purchased this CD. It now lives in my CD player. The songs are beautiful and earthy, sometimes funny and sometimes mysterious but always real. Mr. Graham's voice conveys these songs in a heartfelt rumble. Buy this CD!

Phenomenal.......2007-01-04

One of the best composers of the 20th century, this rendition of W.G.S's music is moving and well recorded.

Worth it for the "Lyric Quartet" alone.......2006-05-31

The first half of this album contains some of the most beautiful, breathtaking music for strings ever written, played and recorded. Very sentimental and heartfelt, quite accessible for those unfamiliar with Grant's works. I give this cd 4 stars for this 3 movement piece alone.
The same liveliness is also evident in the three works which follow, Danzaz De Panama", "Prince and the Mermaid Suite" and "Summerland".
But toward the end one will have realized that they've already heard the best that this album has to offer, as it tends to grow stale and even wearisome and transform into audio wallpaper.
The first half - fantastic.****
The second half - yawn.
But "Lyric Suite" is a tough act to follow.

A great mixture of sounds

Just.....Perfect!.......2001-02-01

Again Naked Music bring us another great album. If you're that cool-man, under 25 years old, who loves to drink a great rink with a stylistic & exotic beauty girl while listening some beats and vocals as background music, that's the album of the year. A great compilation with the best trip-hop of the 2000. Please enjoy at your leisure...whenever the mood suits you!!!

Beyond Disco.......2000-11-02

I've been searching for music like this since finding out about Cassius. This is a kickin' CD. The grooves are positively propulsive. Carte Blanche is why I listen to music. It doesn't matter if it's Johannes Bach or James Brown; good music is joyful to hear.

Sweet Soulful Dance Music.......2000-06-30

Dance music lovers will need no introduction to Naked Music Recordings, they've seduced ours ears with gorgeous releases like 'Music and Wine' by Blue Six and 'Surrender' by Petalpusher and earned plaudits on both sides of the Atlantic. On their latest release they have enlisted U.K. outfit The Amalgamation of Soundz to mix up a sublime blend of sweet, soulful house and deep, jazzy beats. Some of the names may be unfamiliar but the quality of these tunes will make fans of even the casual listener. Featuring tracks and remixes by Swag, Jazzanova, Isolee, Only Child and Amalgamation of Soundz themselves 'Carte Blanche' bears all the hallmarks of a Naked Music release - brilliant tunes, elegant packaging and an uncomprising commitment to quality. Listeners impressed with this selection will also love Naked Music's previous releases such as Nude Dimensions Volume 1 as well as Amalgamation of Soundz two previous mix albums 'A Room With a View Volumes 1 & 2'.

Greeted with shock and amazement upon its original release in 1970, this two-CD collection featuring virtuoso Natalie Hinderas on piano is one of the best collections of music by African American composers of the 20th century. Hinderas's catholic approach to the century's music allows her to delight the Chopin-Ravel-Joplin continuum (wide though it is) of listeners with R. Nathaniel Dett's impressionistic, ragtimey "In the Bottoms." The nuanced jumpiness, replete with dissonant shades, of William Grant Still's "Three Visions" recalls Ives here and Ellington there. What's most challenging here is the works from 1953 to 1969, featuring Pulitzer Prize winner George Walker's study of harmonic intervals in his Sonata No. 1 and Talib Rasul-Hakim's shimmering "Sound-Gone." There are tone-row studies (Arthur Cunningham) and Stockhausen-esque electronics (Olly Wilson), but what stands out most is Hinderas's unflappable perfection regardless of the musical elements. Whether razor-sharp or dancingly playful, Hinderas executes with a largely vibrato-free touch, forcing the ear to focus on her solid chordal touch. --Andrew Bartlett

An American classic.......2001-01-21

This seminal recording is a must for the library of anyone serious in the study of American music. William Grant Still, often lauded as the "Dean of African American Composers," is among the most distinguished composers in the United States, regardless of his race. This anthology of his work explores his contribution to small scale genres, namely chamber music and song. Having been deeply enamored of the human voice, his music is imbued with lyricism for every instrument.

In this recording, Robert Honeysucker is a stand-out performer. His rich, vibrant baritone is perfectly suited to the rigourous requirements of Still's "Songs of Separation." Lynn Chang and Vivian Taylor perform Still's "Suite for Violin and Piano" with style and panache. The pathos and passion of Still's life can be discerned from the second movement of this work, in particularly.

Review by Scott of Morrigan Records.......2000-08-03

If you couldn't handle Polly's debut album, you probably shouldn't bother with this one. Polly's soundscapes are as eerie, her playing as amazing (bordering on Hendrixian), and her poetic subjects as obscure. This time around, there are some slight nods at more "commercial" sounds, especially in her cover of Thomas Dolby's classic "One of Our Submarines", which Polly casts, after an unaccompanied vocal verse, in minimalist bass and drum backing with her flute handling the original synth lead lines. Summerland also dives deeper into the Celtic waters which were hinted at on her first album - not musically, but lyrically, with songs about the obscure Irish death god ("Don Dorcha's Revel") and the much-sought-after Deirdre ("Blood Sugar"), as well as a Gaelic tune by Diarmit MacDiarma ("Gaoth Barra ndTonn"). One of the most interesting tunes on the album is the opener "Aurora", which describes the return of the dawn goddess as a jet plane(!). Again, Polly does what only she can - or perhaps is willing to - do.

Scott's picks: "Don Dorcha's Revel", "Pelen Tan"

Progressive and Psychedelic - Summerland.......1999-11-25

Unique and uninhibited by the pop and main stream music industry, Polly Moller has released her second compact disk. As with her first album, she is blending progressive, psychedelic, Celtic, and ambient music with psychedelic and mythic lyrics to create an intriguing mental landscape. Each of Polly's CDs are abrupt introductions to a world of imagery, both surreal and thought provoking.

In her most recent CD, _Summerland_, the musical influences are more clear than on her previous album, _Taste_The_Wall_. Although I did enjoy the artistic cacophony of the earlier album, the new works are easier to relax with, listen to, and absorb on a mental level. The relationship of the bass (played by Jordan Avon of Oblivious Scientist), drums, and the lead flute complement the sung and spoken lyrics exquisitely, creating a fitting coating to help the listener ingest the story. The mood and tone of each song seems to fit the story associated with it.

There may not be any one track quite as harsh or as driving as "keeny zuke", "aerodynamic", or "taste the wall" on this new album, but the best stories from the last album are matched on almost every track of _Summerland_ as the listener is mesmerized by the overall theme. "Io" is the Greek tragedy of a maiden transformed into a cow who climbs Mount Olympus to seek help from Zeus and Hermes. "The Song of Coinchend Cennfada" is a tune with hard rhythms depicting the Celtic saga of Art McConn from the antagonist's point of view.

Music lovers who enjoy progressive rock and ambient techno are likely to enjoy the musical styling of _Summerland_. Those who appreciate avant-garde vocals will enjoy the vocal styling used on Polly Moller's albums. Fans of Miranda Sex Garden and His Name Is Alive are likely to enjoy the blend of instruments used for this new album, as well as the artistic cacophony of the first album.
