Hillbilly Deluxe - Dwight Yoakam

Advantages: Great tunes and you get the music videos too
Disadvantages: none

...Wow! As a big beyonce fan i was not dissapointed by B'day deluxe addition as it has a lot of sas and some great songs that make you want to get up and dance.It has all the songs that the original Bday album comes with such as Irreplaceable and Dejavu and includes the newly released songs such as Beautiful liar and Ring the Alarm. The album has a combination of fast beat pop songs with classic R'nB and one or two slow ballads. My two favourite tracks have to be Flaws and All- a love ballad with a fresh twist , and Get me bodied- a fast upbeat song,perfect to listen to before you go on a night out. If the insanely great range of music wasn't enough the Bday deluxe edition also has dvd versions of some of Beyonces videos.(Some of the videos included are Irreplaceable, Flaws and All, Freakum Dress, Ring the Alarm and Beautiul Liar which...

Advantages: Beautiful Acoustic Guitar Poetical Folk Pop Ballads
Disadvantages: Very few if any

...Jack Savoretti has set the UK alight with his Debut Album 'Between The Minds' Deluxe. Not only a talented guitarist with a voice that sounds stunning but also lyrics and music that flows almost poetically. If there's a BRIT newcomer award then my vote goes to Savoretti. The CD's ooze quality, a blend of Bob Dylan, Tom Baxter, Damien Rice, Simon & Garfunkel, Nick Drake, Neil Young and James Blunt. Songs such as 'Dreamers', 'Dr.Frankenstein', 'Between The Minds' 'Chemical Courage', 'No One's Aware' and 'One Man Band' are simply fantastic, CD2 unplugged includes Live songs and a spine chilling brilliant version of Johnny Cash's 'Ring Of Fire'.To top it off a beautiful version of 'Between The Minds' with piano accompaniment. If you love ballads, songs with meaning, acoustic guitar, good quality songs, poetical stories and music at it's best... Read review

Advantages: Brilliant!
Disadvantages: Mad! (Or is that still an advantage?)

...Kate and Anna McGarrigle and Dwight Yoakam, I just couldn’t relate to it. But I persevered and came to appreciate it. I was determined to give this music a chance. By about the fifth listen I absolutely adored it. It’s a classic non-song, of course, (see my REM op if you haven’t been keeping up!) and, but for the excessive lyrics, it would make a great instruMENTAL! I wish I knew what the instruments were for my favourite bits so I could try to explain what it sounds like. Anyway, I keep finding myself humming musical passages and stings from this song. This is the sound of the runaway Ghost Train crashing into the out-of-control carousel at the funfair. I think that’s made it pretty clear. Best bit: From 1:54 into the track until 2:06. Brilliant! (9.5/10) 3. Retrovertigo (4:58) "Now I’m finding... Read review
