Cecil Taylor Unit - Cecil Taylor

Advantages: a great album, mixed songs,
Disadvantages: none

...LOG ON - riotous Ragga Dancehall and slamming hip-hop vibes make LOG ON a well exciting and upbeat release, for your ears!! The track "Showdown" features Ky-Mani Marley with Elephant Man and has huge crossover potential and is the second song on the title. A song with a great combination. There's also an exclusive cut from Buju Banton and some wicked tunes with Cecile, Spragga Benz, Ricky Rudy and the great Ward 21. With a total of 22 tracks this album is jam packed with dancehall hits and features a truely eye catching CD cover.. My favourite song from the album is log as it mixes ragga with a bit of rnb i would say... another of my favourite song is Bad Man Bad Girl (featuring Ce'cile) cecile gives this song a lift, a uplifting bad man bad gal mood... I wasnt very keen on a couple of tracks which were Bring The War i felt... Read review

Advantages: A great rock album from Queen's drummer
Disadvantages: A few weak songs

...An amazing debut solo album written and performed entirely by Roger Taylor, the drummer of world famous rock band Queen. A great start with No Violins, a classic rock song followed by the 1970s single Future management and Good Times are Now. My Country I & II is my favourite track on the album and is great to listen to after a bad day at work! Although there are one or two weak tracks, like Fun In Space, the album is consistent and very enjoyable to listen to. After listening to all four of Roger Taylor's albums, I think this one has to be the best. A completely different to sound to most of Queen's music, this album is refreshing to listen to and Roger's vocals are great! I would definately recommend this album to any Queen or Roger Taylor fans, or anyone interested in trying some of his solo work.... Read review

Advantages: A different slant on a classic track
Disadvantages: Not everyone's cup of tea

...Lifted from Julienne Taylor's debut album, "Racing the Clouds Home", "Second Hand News" is a cover of the classic Fleetwood Mac song from the "Rumours" album and is brave track to cover as it is so well known. A very creditable job of "Second Hand News" is done by Scot Julienne Taylor who takes the driving beat of the original and adds a Celtic slant to proceedings, of more interest are the other two tracks "Rose of Sweethay" and "Woodball" which are both acoustic versions and push the vocals to the front and really show what many people are raving about....
