I have been a huge fan of Aimee since her album “I’m With Stupid,” As a lyricist and musician, she is a national treasure. Her live shows are always wonderful.
Various Artists/Holidays Rule/Hear Music,/strong> In time for KVNF's Holiday Auction, 17 tunes from a variety of Artists & Genres to get you in the spirit!
Lana Del Rey/Paradise/Polydor< font color="black"> Haunting voice & equally haunting lyrics.
Kelly’s guitar playing and singing are amazing. She’s been described as “Stevie Ray Vaughan in a woman’s body with Janis Joplin screaming to get out.” Kelly does things with a guitar that simply amaze me.
With the release of this CD, Carlos returns to the classic Santana Sound. Stunning music, simply stunning. The CD’s title track, "Shape Shifter," as well as “Nomad,” are emblematic of Santa’s stinging guitar solos, the big Hammond B3 organ weaving in and out, relentless percussionists keeping everyone honest . . . Carlos' transgalactic musique is back . . . big time.
Tracey Thorn/Tinsel & Lights/Merge I know, I know! It is too early for Holiday music, but the "Everything But The Girl" girl does a masterful job mixing it up with tunes for AnyTime!
Empresarios?El Sonido Magico/Fort Knox The Dance Floor Kings from DC blend Salsa, Dub, Reggae & Cumbia to create an authentic "Tropicaliente" beat.
Sugar Blue has done it again with his live 2-CD release “Raw Sugar.” One of the most striking tunes is an updated “Miss You.” Striking as in “it will flat blow you away.”
