Wave Motion - Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician

Advantages: Different, refreshing
Disadvantages: Slightly repetitive musically

...was feeling in the Bon Jovi world, perhaps overshadowed by Jon’s figure. The album attracted Eric Clapton’s attention. But despite his participation on the album Sambora’s debut was far from being a success. Sambora had its second chance to prove his solo value in 1998 with the release of “Undiscovered Soul”, a title that once again suggested Sambora’s feelings towards his own talent. At the same time, Jon Bon Jovi already had a new album wandering the charts since 1997 “Destination Anywhere”. ***UNDISCOVERED SOUL*** COVER: I absolutely love the cover. It has a plastic three dimensional effect sleeve portraying Sambora looking away. The cover in the CD case itself shows a serious Sambora facing forward. The back of the plastic sleeve shows what seems to be a mystical triangle, hiding Sambora somewhere in the distance playing guitar... Read review

...Slow Motion by David Gray has to be one of my favourite albums. I bought as part of a 3 for £20 deal at HMV a while back so it was a pretty good bargain. I have to say i think it is one of his best albums, i particularly like the single 'slow motion' which is an excellent accompaniment when relaxing with a glass of white wine!! David Gray has a soulful voice which carries you away through the lyrics that he sings so feverently. I wasnt too fond of the 'disappearing world track' but i guess 9 out of ten is pretty good going!! It certainly has to be said that David Gray is an original singer, with a style not many other artists could imitate too easily. Some of the younger generation may not appreciate an artist like David Gray, but i really recommend it.... Read review

...In the late 1970's Grace Jones became something of a Disco Diva as she burst onto New Yorks club scenes with Disco hits such as I Need A Man and Do Or Die. However in 1980 following a new record deal with Island Records, home to various Reggae acts, Jones achieved further mainstream recognition with the superb Warm Leatherette album. Grace Jones shifted musical direction for the Warm Leatherette (1980) project, divulging into a diverse blend of sounds and styles ranging from Reggae, Rock, New Wave, Funk and Soul. The finished results were some of Jones most compelling recording work. This album was not least aided by the excellent production skills of Chris Blackwell and Alex Sadkin as well as the startling muscians behind her with Sly Dunbar on drums, Robbie Shakespeare on bass guirtars, Barry Reynolds and Michael Chung...
