Schnozzola (The Best Of Jimmy Durante) - Jimmy Durante

Advantages: Fast paced and topical joke telling at its best
Disadvantages: DVD Extras could have been better

...the real Jimmy Carr, unburdened by televisual etiquette he is able to really let fly. Recorded at London's Bloomsbury theatre, 'In Concert' is Jimmy Carr's fourth live DVD, and in my mind it's his best so far, he is on top form with nothing escaping his razor sharp wit. The always dapper Jimmy Carr seems particularly at home if a member of the audience is silly enough to try and heckle him; his put downs are swift, crisp and very very hard. Be in no doubt that if you heckle Mr Carr you will come a very poor second. One moment worthy of mention is how he deals with an audience member complaining that he is not racist and doesn't tell any racist jokes; his put down is quite brilliant. A lot of the humour is adult based, on more than one occasion I squirmed a little as he tightrope walks that fine line of controversy and bad taste, suffice to... Read review

Advantages: Fantastically feelingful, occasionally loud yet often graceful. An increadibly well rounded album
Disadvantages: It's a move away from 'Clarity'.

...My View of 'Jimmy Eat World' / 'Bleed American I remember most of the good bands that I've listened to over the years: Their best songs ring a bell in my head, I might even know the lines from some of them, at least I might think I do after a few bevvys. But I can tell when I've hunted down that mythical beast; the GREAT band, because much like J.F.K.'s assassination or the 9.11 attacks I can remember exactly where I was when it happened. I'm sure that many of you will know what I'm talking about. I'll quickly tell you in the hopes that setting the scene will inspire you in some way to run out and get your hands on this incredible piece of musical history. The sun was shining on Ferriby train station in a very English way, meaning that it was poking through the overcast clouds now and then. I was mooching around listening to... Read review

...I have been into Country music for as long as I can remember. Country music makes me feel good inside especially when I am listening to the type of Country I like. Finding the Country music I like can often be a chore considering so many artists in Country sing the same type of song. When looking for good Country music I look for originality, inspiration and real feelings. Some Country music is monotonous and not very original. I don't know why this is I suppose it's the same with any type of music really. However, there is some Country music that just hits you in the soul and moves you into feeling a varied array of emotions. Jimmy Wayne is one of these Country singers that hits you in the soul. Jimmy Wayne has quite a deep voice and he sings from the heart. He writes a lot of his own music and is very talented. Jimmy... Read review
