"This was certainly a nice surprise. Far from being standard-issue "relaxation music", "Peaceful Planet" presents the music of four accomplished "traditional" musicians from four regions of the world. Each segment is lovely.
Tracks 1-3 ("Spain") are original compositions by classical guitarist Cesar Fornes Berlanga. These are light, gentle pieces with a spontaneous, improvisational feel, paired subtly with the sounds of natural birdsong.
Tracks 4-7 ("South America") are presented by South Amercian musician Jorge Alfano, playing traditional instruments from the Altiplano.
Tracks 8-10 ("Zimbabwe") are musical explorations on mbira, by master player Erica Azim. The sound is like chiming layers of small, tuned bells.
Track 11 ("India") is by well-known North Indian musician G.S. Sachdev, who plays a raga in teental rhythm, pairing flute and tabla.
The booklet incuded is both respectful of each region's musical traditions and sufficiently detailed to provide the listener with a sense of what inspires each perfomer. I liked the balance found on this disc of well-chosen, diverse music, as well as acknowledgement of the skill, individuality and inspirations behind each of the four musicians. A very nice project, done tastefully."

"I like this album a lot, but without Lindsey Buckingham, it almost seems like a different band other than Fleetwood Mac. Always great to hear Stevie and Christine, but there's not enough of them. Again, I do like itâ¦although it sounds like I don't ð. Overall, I do recommend it to other FM fans."

"Everything but the Shel Siverstein track at the end was recorded live in 2005 at WFPK in Louisville, Kentucky -- the "live" feel really makes this a fun record. The Juggernauts are a jug band, but not too trad, as you will figure out soon enough --!

I'd love to give credit to the musicians here, but all I can tell you is this....the disc is dedicated to former member "Big Daddy T" from his old bandmates "Fish", "Roscoe" and "Smiley". How can a band with guys named Fish, Roscoe, Smiley and Big Daddy be anything but great?? Enjoy!"

"This is an excellent greatest hits collection that always improves my mood. "Six Months in a Leaky Boat" is my favorite song here, and somehow I don't think I had ever heard it until this collection. Now I don't know how I lived without it for so long. If you like Crowded House, Neil Finn and/or Tim Finn but haven't given Split Enz a chance, here's a great place to begin."

"I cannot recommend 'Tourist' by St Germain enough.
This cutting edge Future Jazz, House, Downtempo CD dropped on Blue Note in 2000.
It manages to sample everybody from John Coltrane to Miles Davis to John Lee Hooker.
Still sounding vital in 2024. Get the French EU Digipak pressing for good sounds!"

"There are lots of compilations of greatest hits for John Denver and I own a lot of them. What makes this particular CD worth keeping? Leaving on a Jet Plane. John rerecorded it (and other songs) for this GH album and it is much better than the "poppy" version on Rhymes & Reasons. On the 4-disc Country Roads compilation, the R&R version of Jet Plane is present. I haven't found where these GH versions of his songs show up anywhere else than on this album."
World Gone Wrong by Roger Matura (2012-02-14) |
Review by:
IC B.. - 9/30/2024 11:41 AM
"Life broken, society fractured are the themes of "World Gone Wrong", Roger Matura's first vocal album after ten years.
The singer and guitarist - son of a miner, and originally from Germany - left for the U.S. in 1978. He was a street musician before joining the folk scene there. His songs speak of love and freedom, his lyrics falling somewhere between themes of melancholy and political outrage. His voice is sometimes compared to that of Tom Waits, with that same quality of raw intensity and a lifetime's-worth of weatherbeaten weariness in it.
"World Gone Wrong" (2011) is Matura's nineteenth album, on Ozella Songways.
