Unpredictable Green World of Dar Williams
Review of Green World, The - Dar Williams by  MAFARRIMOND

Advantages: Modern folk with profound lyrics and beautiful melodies.
Disadvantages: Not widely available

...I first became aware of Dar Williams when I bought the Joan Baez CD, Gone from Danger. Dar Williams had written a number of tracks on the CD and also provided backing vocals on some. I was very impressed by this singer / songwriter and promised myself I would seek out more of her work. It took me some time but I finally came across this CD, "The Green World". The CD is the fourth of Dar Williams solo albums released in 2002 by Razor & Tie and I was not disappointed. The CD is enjoyable for many reasons. Each of the songs is a delight to listen to instilled with the folk-song storytelling quality. Dar's voice is pleasing and clear; at times wistful, at others mournful, sometimes childlike and sometimes whimsical. The lyrics are amazing and original; they are catchy yet the underlying sentiment is often profound; somewhat ambiguous... Read review

A triumph for Williams and the Potter franchise!
Review of Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban - John Williams by  ILoveBargains

Advantages: It's the best Harry Potter score yet - deeper, darker and inspired!
Disadvantages: Where have the old themes gone??

...When Warner Bros announced that John Williams was to take on the composition of the score for “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” (“Sorcerer’s Stone” for any Americans reading) I knew they had made the right decision. I was studying Music at the time and, I will admit without shame, had discussed this at great length with a few other students beforehand. We agreed that it would ‘have’ to be John Williams – the King of Memorable/Cheesy/Inspirational film scores that most have ingrained in the back of their minds. Who could forget the menacing Imperial March as Darth Vader marched into the corridor in “A New Hope”? I think I spent half my childhood running around pretending to be Indiana Jones (accompanied by the famous theme, of course). I heard the score to the Philosopher’s Stone in fragments on the radio...

John Egdell - Your Big Day
Review of Your Big Day - John Egdell by  phoenixgreen

Advantages: Great sound and fantastic lyrics - a beautiful album.
Disadvantages: Too short!!! You'll wish it was twice as long and you'll put it on repeat!

...*******Your Big Day - John Egdell******* This is a first album for the Newcastle based singer song-writer. After hearing him play live, and buying a copy of his album, I can't help but write favourably of this greatly inspirational artist. He does with music what I try to do with paint and canvas, and he does it with a quiet grace that is not often evident in the up-and-coming music scene. I hope I do his work justice in this review! ***The Artist*** John Egdell is a man of much talent. Born in Gateshead, he has spent much of his life fiddling about with music, and guitars in general, though as far as I know, there's not much by way of musical instruments he can't play. Give him a shaky-egg and he'll blooming shake it and by god there'll be rhythm and blues somewhere in the noise it makes! Quite simply, he is a gentleman... Read review
