| Once Upon a Full Moon Night In Our Players |
Here's what's recently caught our collective ears:
Once Upon a Full Moon Night Anything Can Happen What can we
say? We're biased.
Maura Kennedy Parade of Echoes A nice balance of voodoo
haunting ("The Thing with Feathers"), retro pop ("New Way to
Live"), introspective folk ("October"), and even an old-time
country weeper ("Shadows with the Lonely") on this first solo
from the lighter half of The Kennedys.
Duncan Sheik Covers 80s From the era of the Thompson Twins,
the Blue Nile, and Tears for Fears, Sheik pulls back the covers.
We'll bet you never suspected there was this much quiet emotion
beneath the original synth-drenched versions.
The Autumn Defense Once Around Once past the blatant
America ripoff of the opening track, you can settle in to the
layered harmonies and sparkling acoustics of this latest
installment from a coupla the Wilco guys.
Silje Nergaard A Thousand True Stories The Metropole Strings
add a Bacharach blast to the latest from this Scandinavan
jazz-pop diva.
Sacred Treasures from the Sistine Chapel A unique release from
Hearts of Space that centers on Allegri's pre-baroque choral
masterpiece Miserere, interlaced with original re-interpretations
of the melodies with, of all things, a saxophone. With enough
echo, unusual musical pairings can still provide ambient bliss.
Adele 21 "Rolling the Deep" and "Rumour Has It" define this
album of Brit-soul done 'way better than most.
