Editorial Product Review: :If Little Big Town's platinum-selling debut, The Road to Here, found the foursome putting a backwoods spin on both Fleetwood Mac and the Southern California rock scene, the band's sophomore release pays such direct tribute to their heroes that you'd have to have a tin ear not to recognize the very songs that inspired them. Liked Fleetwood Mac's 'Go Your Own Way?' They've got it under the bargain title 'Fine Line.' Loved 'The Chain' and 'Landslide?' They're here, too, but with different titles. Crosby, ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:On previous collections, Putumayo has explored upbeat Arabic pop and dance music (Arabic Groove and North African Groove) and laid-back Arabic electronica (Sahara Lounge). With Acoustic Arabia, Putumayo turns its attention to the more organic, traditional styles that are the foundation of these musical genres. With their stripped-down arrangements and softer, more introspective quality, the songs on Acoustic Arabia highlight the fundamental beauty of the music of the Middle East and North Africa. This collection features an intriguing roster of artists, including several ...

Editorial Product Review: :The thumbnail description of Matisyahu: File under Hasidic Beatbox Reggae. Despite having markings of novelty, it's really nothing of the sort. Fronted by a man named Matisyahu (born Matthew Miller), they are truly a band. Two independently released CDs brought them a rapid and well-deserved ascent, making their signing with a major label a logical step. Youth benefits from a more expansive sound and production by the fantastic Bill Laswell (Golden Palominos, Laurie Anderson, the Last Poets). Matisyahu's singing and the substance of his ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:2003 album featuring Eva's unique interpretations of ten classic songs.

Editorial Product Review: essential recording:The Basement Tapes can be heard as a manifesto for the '90s' underlying Americana agenda or as the greatest album never intended for commercial release. Homegrown 1967 recordings taped in the Band's fabled Big Pink hermitage in Saugerties, New York, many of the 24 songs resonated across American and English rock and folk long before their belated 1975 release through studio interpretations by the Byrds, Fairport Convention, Manfred Mann, Peter, Paul & Mary, and numerous other acolytes, as well as through myriad ...

Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Born To The Breed is an all-star tribute to one of the leading lights of the folk music movement, Judy Collins, and is released through her own independent record label Wildflower Records. The idea for Breed came from a casual compliment Collins received from another iconic female singer. 'It started because Chrissie Hynde said to me, 'You know, one of my top 10 favourite songs is 'My Father.' And I thought, 'Why don't I get her to record that?'' says Collins. Other singers ...
