Subtitled “funk classics from sassy soul sisters” this album’s sentiment may have it’s heart in the right place, but it fails to describe the full picture here. These women are sexually, emotionally and vocally aggressive, leaving their men in no doubt as to who wears the trousers in their respective relationships. Each track here oozes raw sexuality, whether the role of the singer is that of a bored housewife (“Crumbs Off the Table”) or as sexual predator (“Your Thing Ain’t No Good Without My Thing”).

5. ?Steam From Da Knot?

Advantages: Really impressive action adventure score, one of the best of 2005 Disadvantages: Some action scenes a little unremarkable
barren first half of 2005. Then thunder struck!
"Howard Shore will no longer be working on the score for Peter Jackson's King Kong."
How could this happen? Three Academy Awards. A seemingly charmed director/composer relationship. One of the most anticipated scores of the year. Shore has been fired? Shortly afterwards Jackson himself gave a statement citing "creative differences" as the cause for the separation, which in its vagueness was much speculated. After all Shore had almost finished recording the whole thing by the time he was canned and any "creative differences" would most certainly have been sorted out long before. Studio intervention in the likes of Gabriel Yared's Troy score in 2004 came immediately to mind, though that would also seem a little strange as I'm sure producers would have been more than willing to put labels ...
