	Moving West Songs
		This volume includes forty-four of the songs Americans sang as their nation expanded westward across the continent during the period between the War of 1812 and the Civil War.
		Their songs reflected their pride, fears and hopes, and described the dangers, the boredom, the discomforts and the loneliness of life on these new frontiers.
		The songs depict the prejudice against California's Chinese population in the 1850s and the suffering of the Irish, fleeing famine, as they migrated to a new, often hostile, home in America.

	Elton John - Songs from the West Coast (Album Review)
		But with Songs from the West Coast, he forgoes the Disneyland fluff that he's been peddling for the better part of two decades and sinks his teeth back into the type of songs that defined his career.
		For sure, there are moments when Songs from the West Coast falls a little short — most notably on Original Sin's inept lyrics and pedestrian melody — but the fact remains that this is unquestionably John's best outing in decades.
		But although Songs from the West Coast often recalls everything from the fully scored orchestrations of Madman Across the Water to the simplistic beauty of his self-titled release, John also throws in numerous new twists and turns that show that he refuses to be tied too closely to his past.

		Songs From The West Coast, puisque c'est ainsi qu'il a décidé d'intituler la chose, est un album qui coule entre nos oreilles comme un fleuve sans commencement ni fin, naturellement et sans aucun accroc....
		Many of the songs were coloured with the feeling of "done this many times before", and lack something I couldn't really put my finger on.
		Actually I really like half the songs, the others are 'Ballad of the boy in red shoes', which wouldn't be out of place on Madman across the water, and escpecially 'Look man no hands', 'love her like me' and 'Birds'.

	CD Baby: VIEUX DIOP: Traditional Songs of West Africa
		Vieux Diop, whose real name is Alioune, takes the heart of West African music into new territory, making it modern without losing its ancient sight.
		Vieux owes his musical heritage not only to his mother, who was always singing the melodies and rhythms of Senegal, their West African homeland, but to his love of American music.
		The material here has a quieter feel than that of the 1995 release- instead of the full band with driving drums and electric bass, we have Vieux's subdued vocals and elegant kora performing his takes on West African traditional songs.
