    On the Streets' third album, the conceit is that Mike Skinner's now a famous guy (and he indeed is in the UK--as he puts it, "I've sold 3 million and you've never heard of me"). So, instead of dissecting the stereotypes and prejudices of an average Joe, Skinner turns his keen eye for detail on himself, to his new life of easy drugs and easier girls, of trashing hotel rooms, and being bummed out when your record label does promotional stuff without telling you about it first. Sonically it's more polished and a tad faster, though the music's still stripped-down and tough, propelled by loud synth lines and minimal drums. Skinner's flow remains original and wonderfully sing-songy. And while it's cool to see him actually write about his current life instead of pretending he's still "street," the subject matter's a touch too similar to an anorexic debutante's diary entry to make for very compelling hip-hop. When he asks "How the hell am I supposed to be able to do a line in front of complete strangers/When I know they've all got camera[phone]s?," it's definitely tough to care too much, no matter how fun the music is. --Mike McGonigal

    Album Description

    The new Streets album The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living, out April 25th, is a completely autobiographical record that covers everything that has happened to Mike over the past few years since he's become a well known figure in the UK. There's love, loss, scandal, violence, sex, drugs and a whole load of bad behavior and regret. This true story begins with the first single, "When You Wasn't Famous."

    My first The Streets album. Funny, edgy, funky, poignant, cool, warm. Word art and music blended to taste. My taste.

    3 out of 5 stars As VIBE Magazine said, "Not on THESE streets".......2006-11-10

    A few years ago, there was an explosion of sorts concerning British artists broadening rap, like Dizzee Rascal and the Streets. I really couldn't get into it though; the thing that bothered me about Mike Skinner (yes, people, the Streets refers to ONE person) is that his material didn't sound like rap to me; it sounded more like spoken word. But he does sound more like a rapper on his latest offering, The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living.

    But even though the production is on point, the songs as a whole aren't that accessible. And I'm not saying that because Mike's thick accent can make things incomprehensible to the average listener (although there's some truth to that; "War of the Sexes", anyone?); it's that most of the time I really don't understand what in the world he's talking about, which is especially the case with the album's opener, "Prangin Out".

    The few times where I COULD figure out what was going on, I wasn't too impressed. "Fake Streets Hats" has Mike complaining about supposedly pirated Streets merchandise (I say "supposedly" because it turns out that Mike's label distributed the hats), and "When You Wasn't Famous" is a been-there-done-that comparison of his private and public life. Speaking of that song, when Mike and friends try to sing the chorus sometimes, it's pretty nerve-racking (see "Two Nations").

    I really think Mike could have done a better job than this; it almost feels like he just wanted to put SOMEthing out because now that Lady Sovereign is getting some mainstream love, he's like, "Hey, remember ME?" Let's hope he perfects his craft; maybe then it won't be so hard to make an easy living.

    3 out of 5 stars ...dissapointed.......2006-10-21

    The first two albums The Streets put out blew me away. Original Pirate Material was fresh and abstract while A Grand Don't Come For Free was full of heart-felt tracks that I couldn't help but love. It seems with this album, Mike Skinner got lazy. The music, while catchy, is hardly original and the lyrics... aren't even in the same league as the first two albums. When You Wasn't Famous, the first single is just alright. I actually prefer the Professor Green remix. This album is mostly filler, with a few good tracks like Never Went To Church. Overall, I do like this album, it just doesn't compare to the first two.

    1 out of 5 stars Guys talking over a beat, great!.......2006-08-13

    This is a joke right?! I honestly thought this group was a hiphop parody group at first because I figured nobody could be that bad on purpose. These British rappers are hiliarous, they basically talk over a beat and it doesn't even rhyme half the time. I got given this cd for free and I still want some money back!

    4 out of 5 stars All right.......2006-06-11

    It's the third chapter for Mike Skinner, the biggest pop star from the UK. Almost every album has been a number one if I remember right. The last album was a concept album. This album is more about the spoils of success. It's less unfocused than the previous two. "War of The Sexes" reminds me of some of the songs on the first album. Some immediate favorites are "When You Wasn't Famous" and "Hotel Expressionism." The first is about the pitfalls of become a well known act. The second is about? Not sure. Maybe about destroying hotels? "Never Went To Church" explores to two great European narcotics: alcohol and Christianity. It has a tune that is like "Let It Be" by the Beatles. We always need a record to put on and smoke weed to. Here it is! The summer looks good.

    5 out of 5 stars Poet he is..........2006-06-08

    You won't be sorry that you purchased this if you love this era of music. He is a truly amazing piano player. I first fell in love with this music from the movie "Eddy Duchin Story" which is a must see. You can find yourself wrapped in a trance when you listen to this as it brings back the days..

    5 out of 5 stars Adults only!.......2006-06-02

    Deathless classics of American popular song in creative and virtuoso performances by one of the best popular pianists of his day, presented in the original monophonic sound with just enough modern electronic processing to remove some of the surface noise without interferring with the original sound. Not for those who know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

    5 out of 5 stars Virtuoso pop piano playing.......2006-02-12

    If you watch a movie about the life of Eddy Duchin ("The Eddy Duchin Story"), you will discover how skillful Cavallaro was because he was the player in the film. Try to find this movie to understand what I mean.

    He had a very characteristic personal style of interpretation.
    If you do not know his style, verify if you can appreciate it in the samples of the albums Christmas (listen "Jingle Bells") and in the album "My Sentimental Heart: 1946" (listen "Lover").

    The recordings of this album are old but OK, so that do not expect too much in this respect.

    I like very much his "Manhattan" interpretation (that is contained in this album).

    1 out of 5 stars Carmen Cavalero, Poet of the Piano.......2002-11-06

    Old tunes dubbed in mono. Yor get what you pay for

    4 out of 5 stars Poetry in Ivory.......2002-11-06

    This new CD includes recordings made between 1940 and 1947. They are monophonic. After thorough re-mastering many of them still show their age. However, despite some technical flaws, this album
    contains many well known standards, that made Cavallaro famous.
    Performance of "Brasil" or "Dancing in the Dark',"Carioca" played by
    33 year old pianist show his improvisational skills and unmatched
    virtuosity as well as his characteristic ornate style. On many of these recordings Cavallaro and his band play as instrumental accompaniment for Bing Crosby , Dick Haynes or Andrews Sisters where Cavallaro remains in the background. All recordings remain a great gift to all Cavallaro admirers bringing back a flavor
    of an era of big bands and unforgettable piano soloists.

    Released in conjunction with the opening of her Broadway show Swing! in the fall of 1999, Ann Hampton Callaway's Easy Living is an excellent showcase for her dark yet wide-ranging voice. Performing in combos of three, four, or five, the all-star line-up includes pianists Kenny Barron, Benny Green, and Bill Charlap, and features guest stars Wynton Marsalis, Nelson Rangell, Andy Farber, and Gerry Niewood. Callaway also includes one of her own songs, the slow rumba "Come Take My Hand," among the familiar ballads and swing numbers. Fans of jazz singing will love this one. --David Horiuchi

    5 out of 5 stars The Best of the Best.......2006-09-20

    I have all Ann Callaway's recordings, including those where she's only recorded one or two cuts on a collection, and this is her best. Consistently involving and intelligent, exceptionally well engineered. If you like this, try Sibling Revelry with her sister, Liz Callaway.

    4 out of 5 stars Another Great Effort.......2005-07-29

    Ann Hampton Callaway has managed to issue another great recording blending an old time cabaret sound, classic songs, jazz background, modern recording quality and her stellar talent and voice. She seems to bounce her way through the lyrics and impart the jubilation, pensiveness or whatever other emotion is called for by the text.

    I like some of her other recordings better but there is nothing about this one which is unlikable. It is, in a word, GREAT!

    "Skylark" in particular deserves to be singled out for praise. She was singing MY song.

    2 out of 5 stars This is a great new discovery for me..................2000-12-10

    This is be a first for me, buying a cd by A.H.C. I must report that I haven't been disappointed with this jazz singer. Ann really has the voice and style to sound perfect for this venue. I can see now why see has so many fans, she really entertains her listener.

    The only dark spots I find about this cd is these few things. For one, I thought the song selection could have been a little better and two, I didn't like some of her tracks where she scatted. I thought her band gave a good performance.

    I will plan to buy more of Anns' product in the near future.

    5 out of 5 stars classic jazz by a great vocalist.......2000-11-19

    this is a great cd by ann hampton callaway - the tunes are classic and she sings beautifully with a variety of musicians. if you enjoy listening to ella, you'll enjoy "easy living".

    5 out of 5 stars A new fan.......2000-07-22

    I was introduced to Ms. Callaway's work through Music Buddha. Delicious. Her voice is as smooth as butterscotch. Rich overtones topped with a knowing smile, much like Ella at her best. I can't wait to hear more.

    This cd goes right down the list of the best charted songs of the thirties. Every song from 78s but the right version. The best possible cd of thirties charted music. The twenties cd "chart toppers of the twenties" is exactly the same-the best possible charted songs of that decade. The two best greatest hits by various artists cds I have ever bought! Bring on more-the teens, and earlier!

      3 out of 5 stars Original, not pristine!.......2007-04-28

      This cd has a great selection, but some listeners might not appreciate the mono, and the considerable surface noise on some tracks.

      The recordings date from the early 1950s (accounting for the mono), and all seem to be just past the 50 year zone that places them in Public Domain in Europe.

      It would be nice to hear the same slection mastered from better sources.

      But it's nice to hear the original Quiet Village :)

      5 out of 5 stars Dance hits of the thirties and forties.......2003-02-28

      For those of us raised on the music of the second half of the twentieth century, the music contained on this CD does not sound like music to dance to - more like easy listening music to relax to - but Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians were one of the leading dance bands of their day.

      They had 26 number one hits of their own on the American charts, of which 23 can be found here. They also had two other number ones as the backing group to solo singers Kate Smith and Bing Crosby. Kate and Guy's band hit number one with River stay `way from my door, also included here. Harbour lights, although included here, was (according to Billboard) only a number two hit for Guy.

      Two of the three missing (You're driving me crazy and Boo hoo), together with the song that Bing and Guy's band took to number one (You're getting to be a habit with me), can be found on another ASV compilation, Sweetest music this side of heaven. Just one of Guy's number one hits is hard to find - The last round up, although other versions of that song are readily available.

      Anybody familiar with Kate's music will enjoy her song, especially as (at the time of writing this review) this is the only CD on which it is available, although it has previously been released on compilations of Kate's music.

      The remaining tracks mainly feature Carmen Lombardo on vocals. He was the singer up to 1941. Although the band had many more hits after that, with several different singers, nearly all the number ones occurred during Carmen's years.

      Even if you are new to Guy's music, fans of the Great American Songbook will recognise some of the songs, including Stars fell on Alabama (which I first came across via Doris Day's lovely cover), Red sails in the sunset (my favorite cover of this is by Frances Langford), September in the rain (Dinah Washington made this song her own) and Harbour lights, which Frances Langford had a top ten hit with in 1937 (it was not only her biggest hit, but possibly her finest recording), but the song became a lot more popular in 1950 when Guy's version was one of several top ten hits. It received a further boost when the Platters covered it later in the fifties - that is the version most people are now familiar with.

      People may not dance to this kind of music these days, but Guy and his orchestra made some very high quality music. This collection contains 25 of their finest recordings. If you only buy one CD of Guy's music, this is the one to go for.

      For those who enjoy light orchestral music, this is as good as it gets. A special treat is the guest appearance by Woody Herman on "Harlem Nocturne." This CD offers 25 excellent selections (over 75 minutes of music), and is a great entertainment value. An additional note: thanks and kudos to Amazon for offering a fine product at a great price, and for amazingly fast shipping.

      5 out of 5 stars A Bouquet of Roses.......2004-11-02

      Whether you call it Easy Listening,elevator music, or as the English would callit Light Music,the music in this album contains a generous helping of the type of fare that was the staple of early FM radio stations.David Rose was a marvelous composerwhoseworks were noted for their elegance and beauty.Except for the omission of Holiday for Trombones, this album is loaded with a majority of Rose's best arrangements.
      It was a pleasure to hear Holiday for Strings, One Love, Our Waltz, Manhattan Hoedown,and Gay Spirits again.If you purchased The Very Best of David Rose and found the selections lacking, this album will make you whole.

      5 out of 5 stars Falling "Easy" Into That Sweet Groove.......2006-08-27

      While I like the Dave Brubeck Quartet, the truth is that I always thought that, instrumentally-speaking, Desmond was its core. And - another truth - I always found Desmond's light and lyrical approach very superior to Brubecks pounding solos. So, I was always curious to find out what Desmond could produce sans Brubeck. This album is my answer: he was able to produce immensely sparkling and emotionally compelling music.

      Here we have Desmond at his "easiest" and lightest. But don't construe that, in any way, to mean the songs displayed here are boring. Quite the contrary. Desmond's solos are simultenously light AND compelling; same goes for Jim Hall's guitar work. Really, all of the musicians (all the way down to Connie Kay's impeccable swing) exhibit extraordinary taste - the kind that can, in the right moments, give you shivers.

      Another thing to note on this record is how remarkably tight the quartet (with revolving bassists) is. While it can be said that Brubeck's quartet is one of the greats, this one has its moments of synergy as well, as their "Bewitched" will very easily demonstrate. And it is not only the synergy, but the instrumentation. For my money, Desmond's sax sounds better on top of Hall's guitar than Brubeck's heavy piano.

      Highlights? The aforementioned "Bewitched" is the song I alluded to about shivers. "Blues for Fun" is exactly that - a very fun and playful blues. "when Joanna Loved Me" is another shining example of the coolness that Desmond and co. are capable of. And to cap it off, the bonus track - "Rude Old Man" swings like nobody's business.

      If you want some very pretty jazz in a very cool style, this effort by Desmond and his quartet is not to be passed up.

      4 out of 5 stars Really pretty sax/guitar/bass/drums..........2002-12-04

      While this release has no unforgettable masterpiece such as "Take Five" and isn't as outstanding as the "Paul Desmond Quartet Live" album from the mid-70's, it is lovely in its own right. The 10 songs, nearly an hour's worth, were captured between 1963 and '65. Paul and Jim Hall mix the ballads and the gentle but lively moments quite well, and the result is always satisfying. Call it mood music or easy listening or smooth jazz or lounge style if you want, but those labels are not adequate, because the talents of the quartet (actually, three different bass players) are so great. Desmond and guitarist Hall and drummer Connie Kay are on all ten numbers. Bass-playing duty is shared by Eugene Wright (five songs, and he wrote the finale) and Percy Heath (three tunes) and Eugene Cherico (two selections.) This album is surprisingly heavy on bass participation. My favorites are "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" from "My Fair Lady" and "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered", but all of them are good. I recommend, if you want to explore Paul Desmond, that you begin with "Time Out" by the Dave Brubeck Quartet and add the "Desmond Live" as soon as you can afford to. "Easy Living", good as it is, is a notch behind his work on the aforementioned discs.

      5 out of 5 stars The best of Desmond's Jim Hall quartet recordings.......2002-08-19

      Easy Living indeed. Desmond recorded five or six albums in the form of a quartet with Jim Hall, and while "Take Ten" may be the classic, this one is by far the best. With this album, the quartet was (for the most part) him, Jim Hall on guitar, Connie Kay (from the Modern Jazz Quartet) on drums, and Eugene Wright, Desmond's pal from the Dave Brubeck quartet, on bass. One would be hard pressed to find a line up that sounded more comfortable playing together than this one. With this album, Desmond found the perfect match between the cool sound and songs that swing. He throws in a few moody, beautiful tracks, but for the most part has some fun with songs like "That Old Feeling," departing into long, wild (yet, in true Desmond fashion, controlled) solos. Added bonus: Eugene Wright wrote the final number on this album, a bonus track titled "Rude Old Man" and gets his much deserved time in the spotlight with some excellent (and even slightly funky) bass playing. Desmond released a few excellent albums, a few of which I even prefer to this one, but none of them were able to obtain a balance between moody and fun like this Easy Living was.
