Kanada Kev Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 http://bit.ly/aSG5QJ Roger Waters – Radio K.A.O.S. The concept is based around a 23-year-old disabled man from Wales named Billy. Billy is confined to a wheelchair and is thought to be mentally a vegetable. However, Billy is highly intelligent but has no way of expressing himself. Billy has a twin brother Benny who is a coal miner. Billy lives with Benny, Benny’s wife Molly, and their children. Unfortunately, Benny has lost his job in the mines due to the “market forcesâ€. One night, Benny and Billy are out on a pub crawl when they pass a shop full of TV screens broadcasting Margaret Thatcher’s “mocking condescensionâ€. Benny vents his anger on this shop and steals a cordless phone. Next, in theatrical fashion, Benny poses on a footbridge in protest to the closures; the same night, a taxi driver is killed by a concrete block dropped from a similar bridge. The police question Benny, who hides the phone in Billy’s wheelchair. Benny is taken to prison, and Molly, unable to cope, sends Billy to live with his uncle David in L.A.. Billy is gifted and can hear radio waves in his head (“Radio Waves†track 1), so he begins to explore the cordless phone, recognising its similarity to a radio. He experiments with the phone and is able to access computers and speech synthesisers, he learns to speak through them. He calls a radio station in L.A. named Radio KAOS (hence the album title) and tells them of his life story about his brother being in jail (“Me or Him†track 3), about his sister-in-law not being able to cope and sending him to L.A. to live with his uncle Dave (“Sunset Strip†track 5), and about the closures of the mines (“Powers that Be†track 4). Billy eventually hacks in to a military satellite and fools the world in to thinking nuclear ICBMs are about to be detonated at major cities all over the world whilst deactivating the military’s power to retaliate (“Home†track 6 and “Four Minutes†track 7). The album concludes with a song about how everyone, in thinking they were about to die, realises that the fear and competitiveness peddled by the mass media is much less important than their love for family and the larger community. (“The Tide is Turning†track 8). In 2008, this song was used by Bob Cesca to make a popular internet video promoting Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.[1] The album is dedicated “to all those who find themselves at the violent end of monetarism.†(Wikipedia) mp3@320CBR Tracklist: 1. “Radio Waves†– 4:58 2. “Who Needs Information†– 5:55 3. “Me or Him†– 5:23 4. “The Powers That Be†– 4:36 5. “Sunset Strip†– 4:45 6. “Home†– 6:00 7. “Four Minutes†– 4:00 8. “The Tide Is Turning (After Live Aid)†– 5:43 http://bit.ly/aSG5QJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanada Kev Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Some really well done arrangements on this release. Enjoyed it much more than i thought i would http://bit.ly/bJ3T1z Sonically amazing, musically impeccable, vocally superb, this album swings hard from start to finish. Crank it loud on a great stereo. Crank it loud in your car with the windows open and the top down. This is fun music, this is music to drink cocktails to, this is a seriously fun album that seriously swings hard! Beginning his career by entering amateur contests and sneaking into clubs, Paul Anka has gone on to become one of the most prolific, successful songwriters in history. This year marks his 47th Anniversary in show business, which he celebrates with the June 7th Global release of his latest album, “Rock Swings.†It is a concept that takes rock hits from the 80′s and adds a swing arrangement to give them a completely different, and fresh new sound.

Kanada Kev Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Any Little Feat fans should check out this Lowell George solo effort. http://bit.ly/9muGjm Few musicians mirror Los Angeles’s tradition of rock chameleons better than Lowell George, son of a Hollywood furrier and the brilliant, short-lived auteur that shaped Little Feat’s ’70s sound and fury before retreating to allow a more democratic if less gripping chemistry to surface. George’s hearty but lyrical, blues-rimmed voice, signature electric slide guitar, and infectious, often surreal songs defined the band–as did his production on their pivotal mid-decade albums, which convinced more than a few listeners that they were Southerners. His 1979 solo album, recorded shortly before his untimely death, mixed new originals (“Honest Man,†“Cheek to Cheek,†“Himmler’s Ring,†and the touching “20 Million Things†among them) with smart R&B covers from Allen Toussaint (“What Do You Want the Girl to Doâ€) and Ann Peebles (“I Can’t Stand the Rainâ€), dressed in tight brass choruses and sleek backing choruses, and fit snugly with the Feat canon. – amazon.com mp3@320CBR Tracklist: 01. What Do You Want The Girl To Do 02. Honest Man 03. Two Trains 04. I Can’t Stand The Rain 05. Cheek To Cheek 06. Easy Money 07. 20 Million Things 08. Find A River 09. Himmler’s Ring 10.

Kanada Kev Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 (edited) This sounds GREAT! http://bit.ly/bz63dK Trey Anastasio – TAB at the Tab TAB at the Tab, recorded live on February 27, 2010 by Trey Anastasio Band at the legendary Tabernacle in Atlanta, captures the band at the peak of its powers and includes live renditions of classic TAB songs and numerous new compositions. Building on 2009′s stripped-down four-piece lineup lead guitarist/vocalist Anastasio, Russ Lawton (drums), Tony Markellis (bass) and Ray Paczkowski (keyboards) TAB added horns back into the mix for its most recent foray. Longtime TAB members Russell Remington (tenor saxophone and flute) and Jennifer Hartswick (trumpet and vocals) were joined by newcomer Natalie Cressman (trombone and vocals), just 18 and on her first national tour. The instrumentation, vocals and arrangements prove a formidable combination, from the scintillating opener ‘Money, Love and Change’ to the tender ‘Words to Wanda’ (marking the song’s first appearance on record). TAB at the Tab also marks the recorded debuts of fan favorite ‘Windora Bug,’ and Led Zeppelin’s ‘Black Dog.’ – Dry Goods mp3@320CBR Tracklist: 1. Money, Love and Change 2. Words to Wanda 3. Alaska 4. Valentine 5. Sand 6. Windora Bug 7. Drifting 8. Goodbye Head 9. Show of Life 10.
