"The Christmas Collection"

Frank Sinatra
Audio CD: FDO 2004-10-26
Label: Reprise
"Talk about your gifts of Christmas past, "The Christmas Collection" is a must-have for any Sinatra-phile, right down to its family photos and one priceless shot of Sinatra swinging a golf club next to the tree wearing a Santa suit! Complete with four previously unreleased tracks (some from live TV specials) -- including two with Bing Crosby ("The Christmas Song" and "White Christmas"), the 18-song collection surveys Sinatra's holiday output and its effects are often chilling. Listening to him glide soulfully through Jimmy Webb's melancholy but romantic "What Ever Happened to Christmas?" or hearing him do his immaculate phrasing on "Silent Night" when he was visibly frail and aging in 1991 are close encounters of a Sinatra kind that are rarely captured on one album. There's also a delightful "The Twelve Days of Christmas" sung with his kids Nancy and Frank, Jr., from their 1969 record The Sinatra Family Wish You A Merry Christmas and insightful and intimate liner notes by James Ritz, not to mention those magical orchestral arrangements. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"Christmas Memories"

Barbra Streisand
Audio CD: FDO 2001-10-30
Label: Columbia
"Recorded between July 19, 2001 and September 7, 2001. Includes liner notes by Jay Landers. Christmas Memories was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. Barbra Streisand's first new holiday album in 34 years makes for a special occasion amongst her legions of fans. Christmas Memories, released within two months of the World Trade Center tragedy, is definitely a soothing, inspirational remedy for troubled times. "I'll be Home for Christmas" has been recorded hundreds of times, but in the context of American troops fighting abroad, the song becomes especially poignant. Barbra does a masterful take, with a polished, orchestral arrangement. Still glowing from saying "I Do" to actor James Brolin, Streisand shines on "A Christmas Love Song." Break out the chestnuts and eggnog as Babs warmly reminisces with vivid imagery on the Sondheim-penned "I Remember." Having recorded Gounod's "Ave Maria" on her first Christmas album, Barbra now brings that same passion to Schubert's version. Backed by a choir, the grandiose track resonates powerfully. Her voice soars to especially grand heights over a majestic arrangement on "One God," a song she first heard on a spiritual album by Johnny Mathis, and brings her unique style to the forefront on Christmas Memories. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

The Rough Guide To Classic Jazz

Various

Audio CD: FDO 1996-05-13
Label: World Music Network

"The 1920's and early 1930's was the great era of Jazz. This album spans the period, showcasing the big names, as well as some lesser known gems. If you're trying to build a collection of classic jazz, start here. Along with the usual King Oliver, Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton tracks, this also has Pinetop Smith's "Pinetop's Boogie Woogie," the first example of the genre on record, as well as the original Victor recording of Duke Ellington's "Creole Love Call" with Adelaide Hall. The only fly in the ointment is that these recordings are culled from Robert Parker's reissues, which are controversial in the way that they reprocess old recorded sound. If you're a purist, you may eventually replace this CD in your collection, but it is a wonderful way to start!......... at 128 kbps!"

The Rough Guide To The Music Of Okinawa

Various

Audio CD: FDO 2001-07-10
Label: World Music Network

"Lovely Asian music with a certain island flavour. Like the rest of the series, this CD covers a good spectrum of music, from traditional to various pop styles. Typical instruments used in Okinawan music are the sanshin (a kind of banjo), castanets, recorders, flutes, guitars and taiko drums playing shuffling syncopated rythms. Featured are such diverse talents as Ryukyu Underground, with their ambient drum'n'bass / reggae dub stylings, the Dick Dale influenced Surf Champlers, folk music legends Rinsho Kadekaru and Tetsuhiro Daiku, the wacky pop of Donto and Shisars with their meddley of musical styles pushing Okinawan music to the outer limits. Every song has something to offer to fans of Eastern music, because island music is by nature full of many exotic influences, blown in by all the trade winds. The voices of all the women, from Chieko Iha to Nenes, are beautiful. I'll risk losing my reputation as an objective reviewer by saying that the song "Shimajima Kaisha" by the group Four Sisters, always brings tears to my eyes. Recorders sounding like the warm trade winds, a rolling beat like the waves and sweetly tragic female vocals like cries over the sundering Sea. To round off a nice package,the liner notes by music guru Paul Fisher are excellent.!......... at 160 kbps!"

Balkans

Audio CD: FDO 2003-03-11
Label: World Music Network

"The Balkan countries constitute a region of striking contradictions. While political borders have been changing regularly in recent years, Balkan music endures, even thrives, defying political, religious, linguistic and ethnic confines. The region is bound together with some of the most dynamic folk music in the world – as the Turkish brass sound and a series of Muslim influences have swept northward and westward, Western vocal harmonies, waltzes, polkas, bagpipe and accordion have flowed in the opposite direction. Spanning the complete range of Balkan folk, this CD rounds up some of the best sounds from Greece, Serbia, Bulgaria, Albania, Romania, Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina....... at 256 kbps!"
