Advantages: Wonderful voice, lots of different styles and influences Disadvantages: Another practically unknown artist so few will search her out
voice is like saying the Grand Canyon is a pretty big hole in the ground? ? and that?s probably quite true ? there seem to be so many dimensions to her delivery that I?m literally struggling to describe her output. It?s far easier to point you all in the direction of her Myspace page and let you discover that wonderful set of vocals for yourselves.
If you?re into Norah Jones but long for someone with a slightly harder edge, then Brandi Shearer might well provide the sort of music you?re clearly hunting for. She?s never going to set the charts alight but that?s not what this album is about. Listen to it once or twice and you?ll be struck by just how good her voice really is, how it dominates the songs therein, her heart-shuddering style reminiscent of Fiona Apple or French chanteuse Madeleine Peyroux but ultimately falling between their two ...
Advantages: goals goals goals Disadvantages: doesnt have blackburn england or southampton goals
The legend that is Alan Shearer. Not only the greatest goalscorer in Newcastle United's history, but the finest the Premiership has had to offer with a record breaking 260 goals in its history, a long way ahead of his nearest rival Andy Cole.
The DVD itself charters Alan's Career right from the very start when he grew up playing for Wallsend Boys Club till his final goal against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. It also offers an interview with the man himself, where he looks back upon his glorious career and all his fantastic goals, and brings you all 206 of his record breaking Newcastle United goal, from the finesse finish against Aston Villa, to the thunderous volley against Everton.
This is a must buy for any Newcaslte United fan and also for anybody wanting to see some quality strikes.
Alan Shearer's Proud Career and Honours ...
Advantages: a great introduction, a little different and more swing jazz Disadvantages: not enough originals and a little less relaxed than twenty something
Having reviewed Jamie's most popular album "Twenty something" I wanted to complete the set and review his first, lesser known album - "Pointless nostalgic." This way it gives an opinion from the same person on two works that are a little different too each other. Pointless Nostalgic is a little less relaxed than on twenty something. It seems that Jamie isn't entirely comfortable with his own style at this point and prefers to cover songs a little closer to the original rather than the great changes he makes to some of the covers on his later album.
1. You And The Night And The Music
The album starts with an energetic rendition of this song. It does show quite a relaxed start to Jamie's approach to the covers but as mentioned above, this changes a little throughout the album. This song highlights the change in style that was made ...

Album Notes
Personnel: Harry Shearer (vocals); Shane Theriot (guitar); Dean Parks (guitars); David Torkanowsky, CJ Vanston (keyboards); Mark Shubb, Robby Scharf, George Porter Jr. (bass guitar); Gregg Bisonnette, Greg Bisonnette, Russ Kunkel, Shannon Powell, Raymond Weber (drums); Jerry Palter, Alan Barrows, Jeffrey Foskett, Judith Owen, Bernie Barlow (background vocals). Aside from his voice work on THE SIMPSONS, appearances on NPR, and acting roles as one of the key creative partners in Christopher Guest's improvisational comedy troupe (BEST IN SHOW; A MIGHTY WIND), Harry Shearer has maintained a side career as a musician. SONGS POINTED AND POINTLESS is a collection of topical, satirical songs (no surprise there, given his turn as Derek Smalls in the satirical metal band Spinal Tap), many of which debuted on his public-radio series. Highlights include the Global War on Terror satire, "Waterboardin' USA," and the deadly serious "Make New Orleans Whole," a post-Katrina condemnation of official responses to that disaster.
Album Reviews
Harp (magazine) (p.94) - "Shearer sings PET SOUNDS clomping gems filled with high harmonies -- funny, melodically rich, and produced by Brian Wilson's music director."
