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 [...]

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 [...]

Album: Sonne

The companion "son of a bitch" is found in King Lear where reference is made to "One that art nothing but the composition of a Knave, Beggar, Coward, Pandar, and the Sonne and Heire of a Mungrill Bitch." The BBC. in takes the easy way out and ... Glen Metropolit, a first-round pick in 2007, a third-round pick in 2007 (Brett Sonne), a second-round pick in 2008 and a conditional first-round pick in 2008 Tkachuk was in a different situation than Forsberg. After the lockout, Tkachuk was mocked for ... Dan Gendur, Vitali Karamnov, Matt Ius and Brennan Sonne also scored for the Tips. For Ius it was his first career WHL goal. But Barrie was the true hero for Everett. After giving up Tyler Dittmer's goal just 2 minutes, 6 seconds in, then watching a ... Sonne captain? Crowley captain? Please! Being older doesn’t amount to an automatic qualification for the captaincy. The captains job is to be a leader on & off the ice. Age has little to do with the qualifications. Check the Pittsburgh Penguins ... Once again there was no room for forwards Brennan Sonne, Brandon Campos and Vitali Karamnov because of the overager and Euro crowding. Forwards Morgan MacLean and Eric English and defensemen Eddie Friesen, Chris de la Lande and Matt Strong were ... Forwards Brennan Sonne, Brandon Campos and Vitali Karamnov were forced to the stands because of the returns of Fiala and Crowley, limiting the overage and Euro slots available. Forwards Jordan Mistelbacher and Eric English and defensemen Jeff Regier ... Everett has six overagers (Fiala, Dan Gendur, Brennan Sonne, Brandon Campos, Dane Crowley and David Reekie) and can keep just three. The Tips also have three Euros (Fiala, Lukas Vartovnik and Vitali Karamnov) and can keep just two. Fiala, of course ... I suspect that Brennan Sonne, Dane Crowley and Jonathan Harty are the players in the mix for the "C". However, the Tips can't really make a final decision until they clear up their overager situation -- can't make Sonne the captain then bid farewell ... With the departure of Brennan Sonne the Tips are planning on assigning another "A". However, it probably won't happen until next week. - In prospect news, Everett had a pair of 16-year-old list players named to Team West for the World Under-17 Hockey ... The overager deadline came and went today with the Silvertips, as expected, remaining on the sidelines.
