Editorial Product Review: :Studio: Emi Music Distribution Release Date: 05/15/2006 :Gorgeous to listen to and gorgeous to look at, Celtic Woman is perfect PBS fare, sort of a Riverdance without the dancing. Drawing on the same New Age-y sound and propulsive energy as that show's solo-voice and choral numbers, the live concert features four attractive young women in strapless evening gowns with soaring voices backed by an orchestra, an Anuna-like chorus, and a large percussion section. The more traditional fare includes Méav Ni Mhaolchatha's 'Danny Boy' and 'She Moved Through the Fair,' and Chloë ...

Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Mighty Dethklok returns this fall with The Dethalbum, the full length record Metalocalypse fans have been begging for. Premiering last year on Adult Swim, Metalocalypse centers around the exploits of the biggest, most metalest band in the world, Dethklok. As the band goes about their daily affairs, the evil (well, more evil) Tribunal tries in vain to stop Dethklok from expanding their empire. Each episode features a new song from the band and now the best of those tracks have been expanded, re-recorded and put together with all new songs to ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:This special collector's box set includes all 3 volumes of the Grey's Anatomy soundtracks.

Editorial Product Review: :While the idea of infusing a weekly TV series with a Broadway musical ethos isn't exactly a new one--think Randy Newman's ambitious Cop Rock--it became something of a turn-of the-century television mini-trend. But few have reached as far--or succeeded--like this November 2001 episode of Fox Network's Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Penned by series creator-producer Joss Whedon and performed by Sarah Michelle Gellar and cast, it's a loving, loopy musical pastiche that takes potshots at everything from Andrew Lloyd Webber to alt-rock. Paralleling the show's lovable pop culture tweaking, the musical styles here ...
Editorial Product Review: :The songs are familiar carols, but A Windham Hill Christmas retains the Windham Hill Winter Solstice series tradition of unusual arrangements and performances that evoke the mood of the season, especially if your take on that mood is a Northeast, snow-covered landscape, like that depicted on the Hallmark card-like cover. The usual bevy of Windham Hill sampler artists are all here, but it's some of the secondary cast that give the most innovative performances. Tracy Silverman & Thea Suits reinvent 'Silent Night.' With his pizzicato-delay violin, Silverman lays down a 6/8 rhythm ...
Editorial Product Review: :It's getting harder and harder to distinguish Radio Disney Jams from non-kid releases. Which is not to say the masterminds of this consistently popular series have scuttled their mission to consider kids first--only that they've gotten very, very smart about assembling discs that satisfy a universal appetite for playful pop. Consider the cross-generational gems they've laid out this time: Daniel Powter's 'Bad Day,' Rascal Flatt's 'Life Is a Highway,' and Natahsa Bedingfield's 'Unwritten' round out such kid-centric but extremely digestable nuggets as the High School Musical cast's 'Start of Something New' and ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:For the first time in television history, a storyline on a TV series will result in a soundtrack album. After inhabitants of Tree Hill are stricken by cancer, their friends and neighbors stage a concert and create a modern-rock compilation album to raise money to fight the disease. That album, on the show and in real life, is One Tree Hill, Vol.2-and a substantial portion of its proceeds will be donated to the National Breast Cancer Association.
The Pharos GPS Phone 600e isn't a horrible smart phone, but the lack of navigation software and subpar call quality detracts from its overall appeal. Plus, you can get more for your money with other GPS-enabled smart phones.
