Dean Owens - Whisky Hearts
|
In many ways, Dean Owens’s third solo album is very old fashioned. That isn’t meant as a criticism - musically it references huge slabs of Springsteen (especially the opener, Years Ago, one of those slyly political songs with its ripe rip of sax, and the gloriously uplifting Hallelujah) and in its more relaxed moments the [...]

Tom Baxter - Skybound
|
It’s been three years since we heard anything from Tom Baxter. His 2004 release Feather and Stone, especially its opening track My Declaration, was a Radio Two favourite, but since then, not a sausage. Now comes Skybound, an autobiographical album, which shows off his angelic, dreamy voice with an eclectic mix of sounds and styles.A [...]

The Magnetic Fields - Distortion (Nonesuch)
|
It’s four years since the last The Magnetic Fields album, i, but Stephin Merritt has hardly been idle. Yet where 69 Love Songs showed a remarkable profligacy of songwriting, and Showtunes elicited his love of Chinese music, Distortion is a conscious step back - not just looking over its shoulder, but swiveling round for a [...]

As a gifted singer and a versatile pianist with no formal training, Sara Bareilles burst onto the pop scene with a naturally skilled voice ranging from powerful and
soulful to sweet and gentle, earning her instant comparisons to Fiona Apple and Norah Jones. At age 18, she left the Redwood forests of her hometown, Eureka, CA, [...]

Fogerty’s Creative Revival
|
John Fogerty’s newest, Revival, is easily his best record since Centerfield, and has some of his best material since the CCR days. Songs like Gunslinger, Creedence Song, and Long Dark Night hold their own against Creedence’s best stuff.
The album starts off with Don’t You Wish It Was True, with a beat that is similar to [...]

It opens his veins and eases heart strain. The study found 70 percent of ... Warne never did well at Perth and Murali has never set the house on firs so seam all the way.

Muttiah Muralitharan's quest to become Test cricket's most prolific bowler was held up by rain in his home city.

KUALA LUMPUR: The National Juniors have not been set a target for the eight-nation tournament, which begins at the National Hockey Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Thursday. Coach V. Muralidharan said this was because “the players are not 100% in top form ... Indians made 203 in that One Day International in 2004 with Virender Sehwag (34), Yuvraj Singh (47) and Murali Kartik (32) being among the runs.

Botha reminds me more of Symcox than Murali (who in my opinion does not chuck but that's another matter), and he deserves a chance at least in the ODI team where Harris is largely ineffectual due to his style, as Tuesday pointed out.
