In 1973, after nearly 15 years on the fringes of success, Charlie Rich scored big with ... more
Behind Closed Doors and was briefly catapulted to the level of superstar. The album is built around Rich's soulful singing and the dynamic and purposeful arrangements of producer Billy Sherrill. "Take It on Home" is typical: we begin with just Rich's deep, smoky voice, his own piano, and a barely audible drum tap. Soon, though, strings enter, climbing slowly, slowly, to an impassioned crescendo, then falling away entirely to underscore the declaration of fidelity that is the song's point: "I take it on home because I believe she'd do the same for me." Like most of the album, it'll give you goose bumps. --David Cantwell

Advantages: Gervais does it again! Disadvantages: Well, may be a bit "distasteful" for one or two...
And so, after reviewing both series of the Office, I thought why not continue the Ricky Gervais trend by having a gander at one of his stand-up shows - "Politics"...
After the world-wide success of the Office, picking up award after award, and then the unprecidented sell-out success of his first ever stand-up show, "Animals", Gervais came back with another attempt, this time, somewhat vaguely, looking at the world of Politics...
...The show opens up with a pre-recorded sketch with Gervais outside the Houses of Parliament and an appearance with Ash (his surname evades my memory at the moment, but he produced the Office with Gervais), who himself is "a bit racial" - Gervais' words, not mine - and then opts to prod fun at him, being disabled and originally from Egypt, in a somewhat faux-pas kind of way. The slightly crude, maybe even ...
Advantages: About 9 of the songs are excellent!! Disadvantages: None
The Best Of Ricky Martin Album is excellent, because about 9 of the songs on there are really funky and I love all the spanish/english lyrics!! There are 14 songs altogether, so considering 9 of them are really good, this CD is brilliant!! I think I first heard about Ricky and his songs was when I heard Livin' La Vida Loca and I loved that song, so I went on to buy this album and was amazed. :) It was definitely worth every penny, because I listen to his songs over and over again and never get bored!
Here's a bit about the artist himself, before I tell you more about the album:
He was born on 24th December 1971 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. His birth name is Enrique Martín Morales, but he changed it to Ricky Martin, so it would appeal more to the British public and many other countries. He started off his career when he was 12, being in ...
