St. Vincent is one of the most creative recording artists working today. Her use of strings and elegant vocals show that she is developing into a mature creator beyond her earlier great quirky work.
Listen to your favorite tunes with this Bose; Wave; SoundTouch; Music System IV, which features built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for easy connection to your network and devices. Bose; waveguide speaker technology ensures room-filling audio.
Compact CD player/fm stereo radio is elegantly designed. The player is easy to set up. Remote is user friendly. Sound quality from such small Bose speakers is amazing. Bass is rich and solid. It also pairs with smart phones and tablets for sound streaming although I have never used this feature.
Following up his "Uptown Funk" hit with collaborator Mark Ronson, Bruno Mars shows why he is one of the most original talents in music today with this new CD, There are only 9 tracks on the disc, but they are all top-notch songs. "Versace on the Floor" should become the hottest track for couples in love.
This is an excellent solo album by No Doubt lead singer Gwen Stefani. It is heartfelt and personal as Stefani writes and sings about the heartbreak and new romance in her real life.
Chris Stapleton has been writing hits for other country artist for years. With his first CD release he reveals himself to also be an excellent singer and guitarist. The surprise is how bluesy his singing and playing is on some of these cuts. Highly recommended. Stapleton is a musician to watch. I expect great things from him in the future.
Elton John's latest has him collaborating with long-time writing partner Bernie Taupin (Taupin writes the lyrics, John the music). These are catchy, upbeat songs with Elton joined by his original band. This album is not up to the standard of his first albums in the '70s, but they will stay in your head and keep your foot tapping.
At the ripe age of twenty five Adele has matured with the latest collection which she also co-wrote with collaborators. You can't go wrong buying any CD by Adele. This is a coming-of-age collection.
Tedeschi/Trucks band came up with another winner. This is bluesy rock with lots of great slide guitar and Susan's great vocals. If you like southern-style blues/rock in the vein of The Allman Brothers with vocals in the style of Bonnie Raitt then you will enjoy this disc.
Mark Ronson is a talented musician who produced the best tracks by late singer/songwriter Amy Winehouse. Here Ronson writes and plays music but he calls on other talents like Bruno Mars for vocals. The great surprise is hearing Stevie Wonder's harmonica solo on the opening track. Highly recommended.
Carlene Carter has been recording great stuff for many years. It's great that she now pays tribute to the illustrious Carter Family, the first family of country music as well as folk music. If you like "roots" music you will enjoy these recordings.
My Best Buy number: 0737804810
What's great about it: I've always enjoyed Carlene Carter's music. On this CD she plays tribute to her Carter Family roots in great style.
