Editorial Product Review: :Liking Jordin Sparks, American Idol's season six winner, comes instinctively. How many 17-year-olds are as self-possessed, as big-smiling, as committed to having a good time and keeping it real? Probably none. Liking Sparks' music has been a different story for fans anticipating her debut CD, though. Her gut-busting Idol performance of 'I (Who Have Nothing)' was possibly her only prime-time goosebump generator, yet she's seen an instant progression to diva-dom, as chronicled in reports that found her heading into the studio alongside pop/R&B heavy-hitters ...
Editorial Product Review: : Coldplay Photos More from Coldplay A Rush of Blood to the Head X&Y Live 2003 Amazon.com:Music doesn't come more touching than this.

For 10 tracks on Parachutes, he adds newfound meaning to the most tired ...

Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Finally, a Christmas album worth listening to all year long. When Mary Chapin Carpenter set out to create Come Darkness, Come Light, she took a far different approach to recording a holiday album than most artists do. Rather than simply lending her voice to time-worn Christmas standards, Mary Chapin wrote her own set of heartfelt songs which explore the many meanings and emotions that Christmas evokes in each of us. These songs, mixed with a few hand-picked gems from other writers and rarely ...

The album was softened up in its original 12-song American edition to jibe with the Dylan/Byrds folk-rock sound, as well as squeeze money from the Parlophone catalog. The 14-song U.K. edition--the version now available on compact disc--is a ...

Slipcase. 2003. :Any good singer can interpret a song, but it takes a stylist to make it his own. James Taylor is a stylist.

A ...
