Amazon.co.uk: Treasure: Music Treasure is a magnificent, if completely alien-sounding album that requires work on the part of the listener, with a few sessions required before the entirety of the album fully sinks in. Some might consider Treasure to be a difficult album, though I prefer to see it more as an album to come back to time and time again (...preferably late at night...), with each new experience exposing new ideas and interpretations that you perhaps didn't pick up on the first, second or third time. But when "Treasure" arrived in 1984 it was as if the clouds had parted after five dark years of Thatcherism and the world was suddenly bathed in an all enveloping golden glow. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B00006L5PQ   (1892 words)

cocteau twins discography fan reviews Head Over Heels It certainly does not sound like the album that should have come in between Garlands and Treasure, indeed, it goes against all expectations as to what I thought it was going to sound like (either a sequel to Garands, or a taster of Treasure). It is perhaps the least 'typical' of the Cocteau's albums, in that it reaches the furthest, explores the darkest depths and screams the most fearfully. This album, which predates the arrival of Simon, sounds just as good as anything done in later years -- in other words the sound is not dated. www.cocteautwins.com /html/discography/reviews/hoh_rev.html   (2863 words)

Ectophiles' Guide - Cocteau Twins I've been interested in the Cocteau Twins since their debut album Garlands, and they were my favourite band for quite a while in the Treasure era, but I lost them a little bit after Tiny Dynamite / Echoes in a shallow bay. My favorite album will always be Treasure, but I also liked some of their more recent albums, like Four-Calendar Café. Their early albums (Garlands and Head over Heels) are a bit rougher and more aggressive in texture and sound and are an acquired taste. ectoguide.org /search/cocteau.twins&source=entries&type=all&for=dead   (2863 words)

Jazz and Big Band Books This wonderful album is now available on CD. a superb companion album containing unreleased excerpts from Miller's radio broadcasts, all selected by Simon himself.

Mandrake Used as an aphrodisiac, the mandrake was also variously regarded as a charm for pregnancy, for invulnerability, and for discovering treasure. The mandrake has traditionally been the object of superstition, largely because of the resemblance of its forked root to the human figure. As late as the Middle Ages, a dose of the oddly shaped root was sometimes given to patients as a narcotic before surgical operations. www.angelfire.com /realm/shades/plants/mandrake.htm   (263 words)

List of All Products Overall, a startlingly great talent that deserves far wide recognition on the strength of this album that doesn’t have a bad track on it, and is one that many fans of AOR and, to an extent, prog rock, will enjoy and treasure for many years to come. album from this South African rock band, and it’s a vast improvement on the debut, in every way. For a start, the 13 songs are a step up from the material on the ‘Just Another Band’ album – A sixty-minute set of female-vocal led anthemic compositions that will have you joining in the choruses after just a play or two, and with the inclusion of several corking instrumentals along the way. www.rock-blues-guitar-cds.com /en-gb/p_12040.html   (263 words)

CD Baby: ARMS OF KISMET: Eponymous - hear and buy it at CD BABY. - from musicdish "Eponymous brims with an off-kilter wisdom and warped melodies, a treasure-trove of idiosyncratic rock and roll that will make you smile when it isn't busy making you think. Eponymous features Washington, D.C. indie-scene denizens Kowtow Popof (Eat My Dust), The Crowd Scene (Turn Left at Greenland), Janna Audey, Rob Santos, Eamon Loftus, Scott Goodrick and others.

Bullet's album: Trafik  (djmixed music review)    The album is a treasure of dark metaphors amidst dangled innocence—none are easily defined. This artist album is a compilation of spacey, psychedelic ambient trips, awash with chilled breaks and bass. Bullet is darker, harder and edgier, simultaneously spanning everything from big dancefloor tracks to sonic trip hop by infusing a heavily layered mélange of rock-influenced electronica and industrial-tinged vocals over a strategically chilled, 3am vibe. www.djmixed.com /djmixed/reviews/review.cfm?Article_ID=3165   (189 words)

National Treasure by Trevor Rabin Cinemusic.net Soundtrack Review Taking a break from relentlessly slamming National Treasure, there are a few pluses to be found on Walt Disney Records' generous (running thirty-eight minutes, when a simple suite might have sufficed) album. Perhaps most astonishing about National Treasure is it's thin, tinny eletronic sound, when the booklet clearly credits over 150 AFM union orchestra players, including such notable musicians as Bruce Dukov, Endre Granat, Malcolm McNab and orchestrator Brad Warnaar (in the horn section). With his derivative and bland score for National Treasure, Trevor Rabin is that composer. www.cinemusic.net /reviews/2004/national_treasure.html   (681 words)

Parasol Records : Labels : A Hidden Agenda Record : Nanook Of the North : The Taby Tapes The resulting album is a true treasure from these ancient lands in which our hero finds that navigating one's own heart can be far more challenging than traveling halfway around the world. It is there the band members meet the Eskimo boy and convince him to record his glittering story songs in their home studio (or so the tale is told on this wonderful album). At a little more than thirty minutes, the album deserves to be listened to as it was conceived: as a song cycle. www.parasol.com /labels/hiddenagenda/aha058.asp   (3575 words)

CD Baby: F: hinterland - from sna With a sound that is both retrogressively expansive to the 80's but consciously aware in modern, musical innovation, "F" is delivering their second dream-catching album to gold-panning, treasure hunters of CD Baby gems. While Hinterland is a relatively short album (my biggest complaint), there is so much depth in the lyrics and musicality of the six tracks that I had to listen to the CD several times to fully appreciate it. "Hinterland" is the second CD from Los Angeles songwriter/guitarist F. This 2003 release was created by equal parts D.I.Y. attitude and intense hours behind rehearsal studio doors. www.cdbaby.com /cd/fff2/from/sna   (820 words)

Encyclopedia: Music (album) Music seems to have been the first studio album by 311 because the albums before this one were independent releases. With satin ribbons of bossa nova rippling with a darker, more emotional color, blended with liquid guitar tones washing through textures so thick and cohesive that you'd believe you could cup your hands and pull them from the air, Villela and Peixoto deliver a treasure of mesmerizing, acoustic Brazilian jazz. Iron Maiden's 1980 self-titled album is certainly one of heavy metal's all-time best debuts. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Music-%28album%29   (287 words)

Jesusfreakhideout.com: Becoming The Archetype, "Terminate Damnation" Review The album, Terminate Damnation, is a treasure trove of blastbeats, grindcore, death and chug-chug riffage liberally woven with skillful leads and instrumentals that include guitars, piano and keys. Oddly and appropriately enough, the album was mixed in Denmark by the soon-to-be-legendary Tue Madsen at Antfarm studios. Also, the album art, a mural by a D. Seagreave (on whom Google.com had no hits for) is awesome. www.jesusfreakhideout.com /cdreviews/TerminateDamnation.asp   (481 words)

Adventure Music This album fills the double duty of being a remarkable introduction to Pascoal's music for the novice as well as a hidden treasure for the more experienced Pascoal fan. Finally, the sixth Adventure Music release is the most Bossa Nova influenced album of this batch and also the only one by a non-Brazilian artist. The album's only flaw is with the vocalise performances. musicabrasileira.org /reviewsinterviews/adventuremusic.html   (481 words)

Lincoln Letter and Civil War CDV Album Highlight Auction ; Maine Antique Digest, February 1999 It was, however, a treasure trove of significant Civil War mementos from a Peterborough area estate that riveted the crowd's attention. At crunch time, no less than four phone bidders were still heavily into the fray, as the album made its final surge to $17,600 from an anonymous collector on the phones. In October 1996 at Sotheby's, a Lincoln missive penned to Secretary of War Stanton in 1864 regarding recruiting Black soldiers from Kentucky brought $85,000. www.maineantiquedigest.com /articles/linc0299.htm   (669 words)

Trash by Alice Cooper (lyrics & reviews) Trash is a treasure for those who search for a great hard rock album and it's actually worth more than $9.98. All in all, I don't consider this album to be really bad by any means, I think it blows the doors off of most of the 80s pop bands of the day. Alice could always bring his charm to what ever album he did in any given time period, but on Trash he is totally out of character. www.19.5degs.com /album/trash/831   (669 words)

Metro Pulse/Platters This is a treasure-chest of an album, filled with world music and hip-hop beats, unorthodox instruments, a refreshing vitality. Pregnant while writing and recording the album, we catch her in that scary-beautiful time of becoming a grown-up. The passion in this album is real, complicated. www.metropulse.com /dir_zine/dir_2004/1417/t_platters.html   (669 words)

Megadeth Remasters Each album is a treasure of heavy metal history. Dave got the albums to actually sound better and represent his artistic visions. and once again, though there was nothign really wrong with this album to begin with, the remaster of it sounds even better than the original. www.classicrockrevisited.com /reviews/Reviews_04/Megadeth.htm   (865 words)

Al Kooper This album is a gift to those who treasure his continuing contribution. Having completed the album Odessey and Oracle at Abbey Road Studios, the Zombies were faced with less than ecstatic reactions from CBS [the record company]. Studying this album was how I learned to arrange music. www.legacyrecordings.com /alkooper/burp.html   (2833 words)

Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD album by rock band Presto Ballet called Peace Amongst The Ruins If you long for Moogs, mellotrons and some simply stunning harmonies than this album will be a delight and one to treasure. Wonderful album and recommended to all lovers of classic 70’s pomp/prog rock. Just listen to the vocal arrangements on ‘The Fringes’ (vocalist Scot Albright is ably suited to the big, bombastic arrangements on the album) or the classic Hammond organ/Moog sounds used on ‘Seasons’ and ‘Find The Time’. www.getreadytorock.com /reviews/presto_ballet.htm   (215 words)

Pendulumâ„¢ font family : MyFonts Pendulum is the much-anticipated digitization and swashy expansion of Americana, an amazing yet long overlooked treasure from the Nebiolo foundry, circa 1945. Pendulumâ„¢ is a Canada Type font family with 2 styles priced from $19.95. With heavy descenders and seemingly floating ascenders emanating from one of the most classical attempts at connected upright calligraphy, never did a font have this much charm and complexity at once. www.myfonts.com /fonts/canadatype/pendulum   (270 words)

Metamorphosis by Rolling Stones CD Cherry picked by former manager Allen Klein as a result of a bitter lawsuit that found a similar anthology contrived by Bill Wyman going unreleased, this treasure trove of cuts is a boon to both die-hard and casual Stones fans. Can't believe that some of the songs on this album never became commercially popularized! METAMORPHOSIS is a collection of outtakes from 1975 and has never been available on CD. www.cduniverse.com /search/xx/music/pid/4940247/a/Metamorphosis.htm   (614 words)
