5 out of 5 stars "Somewhere between a purr and a foghorn".......2005-01-12

Tammy Grimes made a memorable Broadway musical debut in The Unsinkable Molly Brown in 1960, and appeared in several other shows, including Forty-Second Street. Her 1963 album was called "The Unmistakable Tammy Grimes," and her voice certainly is unlike anyone else's--somewhere between a purr and a foghorn--and I happen to love it. Collectables Records has released on CD both of Grimes' Columbia albums, whose 24 tracks are predominantly show tunes, including "I'm Just Wild About Harry," "I'll Be Seeing You," "Anything Goes," "How Long Has This Been Going On?", "Toot, Toot, Tootsie," "Miss Otis Regrets," "Gonna Build a Mountain," and a delightful rendition of "I'll Do Anything" from Oliver!

If you like smooth sould male vocals you will like this cd. Don't know why this is not getting any play here in the United States but I hear it quite often on soul24-7.com, a UK internet soul station. We are missing out here in the US. I highly recommend this cd.

4 out of 5 stars Beatz and Poems.......2007-03-24

Right away the supermarket tabloid looking album cover told me this was not to be a normal prog outing. Indeed, with their references on the cover to alien babies, miniature Amish trailer parks, and crop circles, I was looking forward to something like the wacky musical humor of French TV or even some Firesign Theater-type theatrics.
Not exactly. Coyote Poets of the Universe use beats and acoustic rhythms behind either soulful wailing or poetry narration. Andy O'Leary wrote the poems and he pours his paranoid poetry and spouts secrets over light beats and sound effects on "Sandanista Arcane" . Purgatory Avenue uses street noise to underscore the O'Leary's urban hip hop type poem. Some tracks are instrumental only, using interesting instruments like hardanger fiddle, koto, dumbek, and what sounds like a balafon to hold up extended workouts on fuzz guitar, flute or piano. "Sitting in the Dark" is about a front line soldier imagining his foes, and examining his options, with Arabic moans and acoustic trance.
But their strength is in the combination of trance, beats, ambient soundscapes with the cadence of the poems. Bill Nelson occasionally does this sort of thing. "Requiem (for Ed Martinez)" uses a loveable salsa. Toward the later parts of the album, the songs get ever more enjoyable, until culminating in "The Wild Trees", a building up of African acoustic percussion, then paino, then guitar, then the poetry tells about the trees growing wild, then the music follows the idea, evoking a wild dance at the end. Really great, once you are in the mood for this kind of thing. (from ww w.progressiveears.c om)

If you've heard this band before you'll not be surprised by the fact that they continue to taste the dust of many different musical roads on a splendid journey to the story of these times. Sometimes comical, other times melodic and reflective, to jazzy to transformational, this disc bears listening to a number of times. They recall some of the moods of their past works and move beyond in a variety of directions... In other words... I like it!

5 out of 5 stars William Gregory: "On The Turntable".......2003-02-22

Ives: Sonata no 1/ Copland: Sonata
James Nally-Piano (Eroica)

James Nally has conceived this great Modern American Sonata album, and it resounds with aplomb, idyllic youth and passion. The Copland and Ives Sonatas compliment one another like bookends, laying out a sonic wilderness that serves to remind us of our rich contribution to the cannon of contemporary music. The diversity found in the collage-like composition of Ive's Sonata is fragmented and trance inducing. Due in large part to Lou Harrison's considerable editing, Ives found his voice; a voice that pre-dated today's ideas of sampling. Ives extrapolated folk music, classical forms and gospel music to create a distinct voice that crossed boundaries. In this piano Sonata in particular we find Ives, borrowing from ragtime, hymns such as "What a friend we have in Jesus" and "Bringing in the Sheaves" and Liszt. While Copland's Sonata seems to be in juxtaposition to the Ives piece, it's simple to find the shared vision of the folk idiom and tribute to Americana. Mr. Nalley intelligently and vividly portrays these masterful pieces by setting the tone for each movement with precision and rapture. His playing is a concise explosion of mind, body and sound that is at times reminiscent of Pierre Laurent Aimard. This is a truly magnificent set of performances. William Gregory: "On the Turntable."

5 out of 5 stars American Record Guide.......2003-01-08

Copland: Piano Sonata
Ives: Piano Sonata I
James Nalley-Eroica 3097-65 minutes

The first impression of this release is the strong lyrical sense pianist Nalley brings to these thorny American works: the first sonata of Charles Ives with its atypical format of seven movements (two of which are grouped together), and Aaron Copland's only piano sonata with its three movements.
Ives worked on this sonata on and off from about 1902 to 1929. Because of Nalley's sympathetic ear for Ives the experimenter, his sound is full of beauty, even in what may first strike the ear as startling dissonances. His lyrical and harmonic senses guide the ear through a thicket of otherwise confusing harmonies and textures. And the result is a revelation.
While there are many passages full of clusters and unpredictable and irregular rhythms, expression and sound are enough to know what is going on, whether expansive and rhapsodic or foot-stomping dances. There are pockets of tonality, phrasing, and rhythmic gestures that keep the listener oriented. So for listeners who had just a few experiences with the more disorienting modern music of the last 50 years, or for those who skipped it but still went to movies in the meantime, this music will not seem so unmoored and forbidding as it was when first composed.
Ives makes considerable musical and technical demands on the pianist. One can tell he had a good sense of the piano and what tends to work on the instrument, what is idiomatic and natural to the hands in this setting. Like Brahms, Ives was probably a big man whose physique seemed to influence the technical demands he made to convey his musical ideas.
At first, there is a listener's satisfaction in recognizing and being able to name familiar melodies. But Ives's intention was to use familiar quotations, (such as 'Bringing in the Sheaves') that resonate with the American experience. Often this took the form of hymns from the Protestant tradition. The closer the listener's experience with this tradition, the deeper the resonance of the musical quotation.
Copland's voice is unmistakable. Dating from 1939, his Piano Sonata, where I is so reminiscent of his Variations of 1930, is impressive with its many clangorous and granitic sounds--so many gestures made up of wide intervals and leaps. The playful and charming II resembles the helter-skelter scherzo of Samuel Barber's sonata. It uses the interval of a major 6th both melodically and harmonically as the main building block. III's tone is majestic and reverential. Nalley tunes in to the introverted expression, creating a timeless, other-worldly quality. The clangorous clusters resemble pealing bells, with their loud overtones. And as the movement fades out, the "bells" resonate as if at a distance. Remarkably played. This recording is a real treasure! BARELA

I snatched this out of a radio promo dics collection a local radio station was going to throw out. This is certainly feel good music, and I will be buying their other albums (of course you need to go to their website for those).

To give a comparison, think early indigo girls with maybe a dash of 80s pop influence (the feel-good part). It is nice acoustic music that your grandparents, parents, and kids can all enjoy!

      Product Description

      Mixing music, style, and attitude with what The Boston Globe calls densely ringing electric guitars, grand melodic gestures, and a panoramic sweep of space and sound. The Good North have taken their cues from old-school Britpop, new-school indie-rock, and a dose of hardcore bravado. The combination has put TGN onto bills with such luminaries as Ted Leo, The Dismemberment Plan, Idlewild, Aerial Love Feed, Grandaddy, Stellastar*, Elefant, Ash, The Walkmen, and The French Kicks. They rock but aren't heavy, they emote but aren't emo. When they're onstage, they are riveting, when they are offstage, they don't seem to realize it because they are still a show: a continuous, self-referential, ludicrous sideshow of alcohol, cigarettes, cocksure posing, silly banter, and genuine affection for one another No doubt this is TGN and their new EP, Life Outside our Walls. The Good North formed in 2001, and have previously released 2002s Define Worth Wating EP and 2003s An Explanation LP. TGN have been featured on over 100 college radio stations and commercial stations such as Bostons WFNX & NYCs K-Rock.
