Plastic Beach by Gorillaz – Customer Review: Cartoon band Gorillaz’s new CD “Plastic Beach” features an armada of guests, including Snoop Dogg, Mos Def, De La Soul, Lou Reed, and Mick Jones & Paul Simonon from The Clash, to mention a few. However, they are well used and rarely overwhelm the songs they feature on. Unlike its Dangermouse-produced predecessor “Demon Days”, production this time is by Damon Albarn incorporating all his musical influences from projects as diverse as Amadou & Miriam to Blur and the results are simply staggering! Continue reading Plastic Beach by Gorillaz

My Best Days by Danny Gokey - Question: Do you have to be from “The South” to be country? Also, does someone from the Midwest–Wisconsin, let’s say–have the right to sing in the country genre? My answers to both questions are, “no” and “yes”, respectively. Danny Gokey, who is a Wisconsin native, attempts to record a country music album, and actually succeeds. His singing is genuine, as well as the production, instrumentation, phrasing and styling, and does not sound insincere unlike someone who would be a “wannabe” country artist. Continue reading My Best Days by Danny Gokey

Crazy Heart: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Ltd. Deluxe Edition) (Soundtrack) – The Crazy Heart soundtrack features great country music. I love the theme song “Weary Heart” by Ryan Bingham. His guitar playing and vocals are beautiful and soothing. I didn’t know that Jeff Bridges could sing country. There is no real country singer named Bad Blake, but I can believe that Jeff Bridges is a country singing star after listening to this song. This is a fun song. Another big shock is Colin Farrell. He sings the song “Gone Gone Gone” in his role as Tommy Sweet. Continue reading Crazy Heart: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Ltd. Deluxe Edition) (Soundtrack)
