Most people primarily know Robert Palmer as the smooth crooner surrounded by sultry, ... more
black-clad models in the hit video for "Addicted
to Love". YetAt His Very Bestreveals him to be far
more than simply a suave lady-killer. Indeed, he
could be considered one of the finest white soul
singers of his generation. Of course, his 1980s
heyday is well represented here. "Addicted to
Love" is a stand-out, alongside such hits as "Some
Guys Have All the Luck", "Simply Irresistible" and
"Some Like It Hot", the big hit he shared with
Duran Duran's John and Andy Taylor as the Power
Station. But fans will also enjoy the disco
stylings of 1978's "Every Kinda People" (written
by Free's Andy Fraser), the swampy funk of 1974's
"Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley" and a minimalistic
but driving cover of ZZ Top's hilariously dumb "TV
Dinners". This last track is a telling choice.
Though Palmer is a serious student of music, he
has always exhibited a gratifying sense of humour,
a quality that's contributed mightily to his
long-standing success. He's a wealthy man, and a
diamond geezer.--Dominic Wills

Tanned troubadour Englebert Humperdinck still has the voice that seduced, charmed and ... more
delighted millions for the last forty years. While
starting out as Gerry Dorsey he was ignored, as
Englebert Humperdinck he became a sex god and a
(seemingly) permanent feature in the global hit
parade. This collection includes Englebert
classics--"Please Release Me", "The Last Waltz",
"Quando Quando Quando" and "Spanish Eyes". Eight
new recordings are also included, which should
delight the hordes of Humperdinck faithful. A
swinging version of "Strangers in the Night" is
offered up, as is Burt Bacharach's "Nothing in
This World"; "How to Win Your Love" and "Sometimes
When We Touch" are contemporary chart-friendly
ballads.--F.B.Hawkes

Who? Mike JONES!
Review of Who Is Mike Jones (Parental Advisory) [PA] - Mike Jones by  XICripZ

Advantages: Big hits
Disadvantages: Repetitive

...Mike Jones is a Houston-based rapper. He specializes in this the H-town style of rap which also involves 'Screwed and Chopped' in this style, the music is cut and jerked about, or at least it sounds like this to create an original sound. This style slows down the tracks and this album was brought out later with a second disc using the same tracks that are screwed and chopped. Many who do not listen to this music will think that the music has some digital glitches in them, but this is the effect that they are trying to create. "Who is Mike Jones?" is the debut solo album from this album. He chose to give it this title due to his name being so regular, its very common in America. This album was recored in 2004, but it wasn't until late in 2005 when it was released by Swishahouse. Jones' Swishahouse label mates feature on this album... Read review

Slicker for America
Review of Slicker Than Your Average - Craig David by  chockydavid1983

Advantages: Well- written songs, well-produced, lyrically masterful
Disadvantages: Samey if you're not a big fan, a couple of weak links

...of the tracks on this album. Possibly the weakest track is Fast Cars. This is one of the most heavily produced and isn't that great compared with "Eenie Meenie" and the title track "Slicker than your Average" which are just awesome garage anthems. It just seems to drag a bit and doesn't seem to make the most of a track that appears to have awesome potential from the offset. Most of the songs have some element of a relationship (No Craig David songs, nah!), and are lyrically very clever and puchy. He seems to be able to fit so many words into such a small space ot time while still annunciating everything perfectly, probably learnt during his time as an MC, this is probably highlighted best in the aforementined "Eenie Meenie". You still get the much-loved by fans trademark "OOh's", "Yeah's" and "What's" as gap- fillers. "You don't miss your water... Read review
