The Gift(more) »rank: 1655by: Jim Brickman, Susan Ashton
Our review: :Jim Brickman's 1997 holiday package is all satin bows and glowing hearth embers, precisely the approach his romantically inclined legions would have wished him to take. Those with less sentimental ears might argue that at times the pianist's approach is a touch too sweet. 'Joy to the World' would be more affecting as a solo work, for instance, and we could have done without the strings and music-box embellishments heard in 'Angels.' Yet Brickman compensates by delicately tracing a path to our heart-of-hearts in the album's two superb, nonholiday originals, 'Fireside' and 'Winter Peace.' Three vocal tracks surface here: a breathy Kenny Loggins ... Detail |

The Visit(more) »rank: 3852by: Loreena McKennitt
Our review: essential recording:Mixing a variety of styles with a Celtic base, this was McKennitt's breakthrough album and remains one of her most musically interesting. 'All Souls Night' begins the album, with dance-like rhythms and McKennitt's wonderful voice singing about the Celtic New Year. Other features include a musical setting of Tennyson's 'Lady of Shalott', which, while not as sophisticated as Noyes' 'The Highwayman' on The Book of Secrets, is an enchanting listen. There's also an interesting rendition of 'Greensleeves' and the Spanish-flavored 'Tango to Evora', as well as the haunting 'Courtyard Lullaby' and the wistful 'The Old Ways'. A setting of words from ... Detail |

The Ultimate Jesse Cook (2-CD Set)(more) »rank: 1821by: Jesse Cook
Our review:Album Description:Jesse Cook began his amazing career on Narada, signing with the label in 1994. One year later, he released his debut album TEMPEST. The album quickly sold over 100,000 units in the U.S. alone and propelled the rumba flamenco guitarist into the limelight just as 'world music' was gaining broader acceptance among mainstream audiences. His astounding chops, sultry rhythms, and undeniable stage flair combined to make Cook one of the stars of the genre. Since then, he has become an international phenomenon.
