Yes to Yeah Ghost.

Advantages: Good Music, Good Lyrics, Good sounds.
Disadvantages: New

...get it. When I got Yeah Ghost, I was surprised however. This music was happy. And uplifting. It wasn't Zero 7, but it was good. I looked it up to see that this was somewhat a "new direction for them." Released this September, Yeah Ghost is a marvelous album for those who like Trip-Hop or Psychedelic Jazz. It generally follows Zero 7's style, except for the attitude of the music. It is more poppy and happier. I've listened to this album countless ...
...album was "Medicine Man." It was happier and made me feel better than any other work of Zero 7. Yeah, Ghost is yet another great CD from Zero 7. New, happier sound for them, though. New but good. Good amount of music and even better songs. The quality far outweighs the price. I loved this album. ...

These Are The Good Times?

Advantages: Lots of variety
Disadvantages: Not all the tracks make an impact

Chic released “Risqué” in 1979 as their third album. It saw the New York based (primarily) Disco-playing band come up with material which found them getting into not only this type of work but addition to it, some much deeper styles such as Soul and Funk in order to get some appeal from listeners other than those who had been into earlier music from them. 1. “Good Times” The album begins with a single which was probably the most well-known work to ...
...which went on to act as the foundation to not only Hip Hop (going on to be sampled in “Rapper’s Delight” and many subsequent tunes from similar East Coasters), but also for the Rock world as it acted as a bridge in order to allow more of the Funk sounds to reach out to other fields (as was seen in Queen’s “Another One Bites The Dust”). **Five Stars** 2. “A Warm Summer Night” In a big change to what you got in the opening eight minutes of Funk, you ...

Dance, Dance, Dance and dance some more!

Advantages: Fun, dancey, great disco
Disadvantages: Lyrically not great, might not be everyone's cup of tea

...follows: 1. Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah) 2. Everybody Dance (12" mix) 3. Strike Up the Band 4. Chic Cheer 5. Le Freak 6. I Want Your Love 7. Good Times 8. My Feet Keep Dancing 9. My Forbidden Lover 10. Soup for One 11. Savoir Faire If you are interested in disco, but don't want to invest in just compilations, this is a good start. Where to begin describing this? Funky basslines, groovy guitar riffs (everyone knows 'Good ...
...(Hear Me Tonight)', you'll realise that riff is from 'Soup for One'. One thing that could be an advantage or a disadvantage is that all the songs are the full versions. This could be bad if you're dancing, because you're going to be tired by the end of the 8 minute 'Everybody Dance'! I love every song, but personally, I think the two weakest are 'Soup for One', and, particularly, 'Chic Cheer', because it just doesn't really go anywhere. Lyrically, ...

How Did We Get From Jamaica To Snowflakes One Song After The Nex?

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Nothing specific

“Snowflakes” was released as the first Christmas album from the R&B singer Toni Braxton. Released in 2001, it finds her mixing in a range of tunes which have her taking on familiar tunes that all know from this time as well as some original compositions. It is noted for being recorded at a time when she was newly married and was expecting her first child. 1.“Holiday Celebrate” The album opens up with a track that shows that in this album we are about ...
...lts of effort put into it in order to make it sound much more than your average, quickly-thrown-together Christmas album as we get thoughtful production that mixes in the contemporary R&B trends with the Christmas-y themes for a big opener that I can't find any faults with. **Five Stars** 2.“Christmas In Jamaica” As things move on, we see there here we get what was the second album from the record and a joint that has her linking up with the Dancehall ...
