"After The Party" by The Push Stars

I couldn''t quite bring myself to give this one a 4, even though right now it would easily make my top ten list for the year. Then again, it's been a remarkably weak year and at the risk of completely compromising my credibility, I'm ashamed to confess that I kind of like that Cher song. Judg... [More]

"Mirrorball" by Sarah McLachlan

Sarah McLachlan's folk/pop music has influenced many up-and-coming female artists. From her hypnotic dance mixes, such as "Possession," to her sensual ballads, her arrangements appeal to the masses. Sarah's music has pushed female artists to the forefront of the music industry and has inspired the... [More]

"Come By Me" by Harry Connick Jr.

Aside from being one of the most entertaining personalities I've ever seen, Connick Jr. is also one hell of a musician. After taking a break from the big band sound on his earlier albums, he has returned to it once again and in the most grand manner yet. Come By Me is perhaps Connick's most per... [More]

"Reflections" by Chet Atkins & Doc Watson

Acoustic music lovers are in for a treat. This album is straight-up, down home, madman-picking bluegrass. If you could drink this album it would taste like moonshine without a chaser! (But Atkins & Watson keep it sophisticated enough to say this album is "shaken not stirred.") Right off, Atki... [More]

"Can You Still Feel" by Jason Faulkner

The past month has given us several American debuts from some sexy, sexy boys. I certainly don't need to call anyone's attention to Ricky Martin or Robbie Williams, but you may not have heard of the most interesting of this bumper crop of dreamy solo hunks--Jason Faulkner. Though Ricky and Ro... [More]

"Instrument Soundtrack" by Fugazi

A nasty rumor circulated through the music industry when Fugazi's End Hits album was released--the rumor was that it would be their last album and tour. So, needless to say, when this album was released, I breathed a sigh of relief. Fugazi is rooted in Washington DC where vocalist Ian McKaye,... [More]

"The Ego Has Landed" by Robbie Williams

I was immediately interested in former Take That member, Robbie Williams' reinvented self, not because of his 007-like video for Millennium, but because the first thing I heard off the album was his cover of the gorgeous Karl Wallinger ballad, "She's The One." As for the rest of the album I'm fairl... [More]

"Bury The Hatchet" by The Cranberries

Quite honestly, I have never been a Cranberries fan--this album didn't change that . . . at all. At least their first album rocked a good bit, but it seems they've buried their axes in favor of contrived little mellow pop tunes. Queen Berry, Dolores O' Riordan, drones her depressing tales against... [More]

"Buckcherry" by Buckcherry

I am a true skeptic when it comes to new bands, and I certainly approached Buckcherry with an "oh, brother" attitude. Upon first listen, Buckcherry sounds like a head on motorcycle accident involving the Black Crowes and Whitesnake. But before the ambulance arrives, you realize that these guys hav... [More]

"Slim Shady" by Eminem

Well, it's finally here! I couldn't believe how long Eminem had his hit single, "My Name Is," playing all over the airwaves before his CD was released. In case you didn't know, Eminem is Dr. Dre's newest protege. But surprisingly, when you listen to this CD, you definitely don't get what yo... [More]

"What Is Not To Love" by Imperial Teen

What is not to love--where do I begin? Actually that''s not a fair way to begin, this isn't a bad album--it's just not good enough to recommend spending 16 bucks on. When I first read about Imperial Teen, I was immediately interested because according to this particular writer, they were The Pixie... [More]

"13" by Blur

Blur's fifth studio release, 13, has enough terrific moments to recommend it to fans of the band, but overall it's not a very listenable album and is often downright frustrating. 13 is so named for the number of songs on the album, but if you're counting the good songs it contains, they should've c...

"Requiem" by Branford Marsalis Quartet

Most have probably heard of Branford from his stint as Leno's band leader on The Tonight Show. Shortly after his departure, his younger (and more talented) brother Wynton came into the spotlight by winning the Pulitzer Prize--the first ever by a jazz musician. Now after ten years of silence, Branf... [More]

"Central Reservation" by Beth Orton

Beth Orton is an amazing vocalist and an inspired songwriter, but the production on this album is of the quality you'd expect for someone much less talented. In other words: let her vocal abilities and stunning guitar melodies speak for themsleves and leave the super-produced background noise for l... [More]

"Back On Top" by Van Morrison

This album should definitely put Van Morrison Back On Top, being one of this year's smoothest, best produced, and most well written gems. If you are a seasoned Van Morrison fan, this album is a must. If you are not, this CD will probably leave you breathless. Morrison spirals together a refined a... [More]
