The second full-length by Norwegian jazz enfant terribles Jaga Jazzist proves to even the most ardently pigheaded that their debut, A Livingroom Hush, was no fluke. (Jazz "purists" -- as if jazz were a "pure" music -- will even have to take note on compositional, swing, & improvisational levels but will no doubt, like any music fascist, dismiss this as somehow inauthentic because of the presence of electronics.) The Stix ups the ante a notch & foregoes much of the restraint displayed on the ...

JAMES: THE BEST OF is an excellent sampling of the late output of the band that was almost too happy for Manchester. Culled mostly from James's albums from the 1990s, the 18 songs here include the smash hit " Laid, & several other UK hits that were US sleepers, including Come Home, Sit Down, She's a Star, & others. Sadly, JAMES: THE BEST OF provides only one example of the band's earlier work on Factory Records. Nevertheless, the compilation attests to the wonderful pop sensibility tha ...

Ninth album from the cult Mancunian indie rockers follows their 2007 reformation & is their first new studio release since 2001's ' Pleased To Meet You'. The album was produced by Lee " Muddy" Baker (Chungking, Mo Solid Gold, James's Tim Booth) & recorded at Warsy Chateau in northern France, where Baker allowed the band to jam & improvise at will. The result is a set of coruscating pop-rock featuring Booth's trademark erudite lyrics that is already being hailed as the best thing they have do ...

Personnel: James Blunt (12-string guitar); Malcolm Moore (acoustic guitar); Ben Castle (12-string guitar); Suzie Katayama (strings); Mr. Nau (piano); Paul Beard (Hammond b-3 organ); Karl Brazil (drums). James Blunt's 2005 debut, BACK TO BEDLAM, was a surprise runaway hit, & reminded the public that there was still plenty of room on the pop charts for pretty, heartfelt, singer-songwriter fare. Blunt's sophomore effort, ALL THE LOST SOULS, doesn't find him branching out exactly, but rather ref ...

Personnel: James Blunt (vocals); Ben Castle (guitar); Paul Beard (keyboards); Malcolm Moore (bass guitar); Karl Brazil (drums). The 2007 follow-up to James Blunt's mega-successful debut album is heavy on the sincere folk-pop & introspection. Naturally, some of the lyrics address the ups & downs of sudden fame, but overall, Blunt's vibe is relatable & earnest. The first single, 1973, was co-written with the reliable songsmith Mark Batson. ...
