Lowest Price Label Sampler 2009


Well, I checked it out. I gave it a listen or three and I'm sad to say I'm sorry I did. I'm very thankful that Amazon (and the respective labels) gives us these free samplers. It gives me a chance to try out some new artists (well, new to me anyway) whom I wouldn't have heard of otherwise. Occasionally, I've struck gold and I go back to buy an artists album. I'm sad to say that this time, I had no such luck. I didn't like a single tune on this sampler. I guess you can't win 'em all. Maybe you'll find something you like. I hope you do. Thanks for providing it though, Amazon. I truly appreciate it!Get more detail about Label Sampler 2009.

Low Price I Dreamed A Dream


I think Susan Boyle is nothing short of Amazing...the music was fantastic and her voice was just as exciting as the first night we all shared her well hidden secret.
We have all "dreamed a dream" at one time or another..it is so nice to see her's come alive.Get more detail about I Dreamed A Dream.

Save Romantic Moments Digital Sampler


for being free I was very surprised at how good it was - many free samplers should be passed by, but not this oneGet more detail about Romantic Moments Digital Sampler.

Discount Rated R


With this album Rihanna showed that she is much more than a pretty face who can belt out a catchy tune: Rated R has both depth and strength. Rihanna dared to step out of the cookie cutter pop-star mold by challenging herself and, more importantly, her fans. Every track is a departure from anything we have experienced in her previous albums. It's edgy, soulful and moving. I dare say it is the best album of the year thus far and 2009 is almost over.

In my opinion most of the negative criticism is coming from fans who are resistant to change. She grew as an artist and by doing so she may have outgrown some of her fans but she will surely pick up many new ones. I certainly count myself among them. Keep an open mind and listen to the entire album: it will not disappoint. Get more detail about Rated R.

Cheapest Middle Cyclone


I had never heard Neko Case before a friend played this for me. Now this CD is on heavy rotation at home, in the car, and at work.Get more detail about Middle Cyclone.

Cheap Clandestino


Get a taste of Manu with this very cool live song. He mixes genres from all over the world, therefore, you can't just peg him to being solely a Latin American musician...not at all. Give him a listen if you like the world music vibe, from Reggae to Trova, Ska to Samba, and so on. You will soon appreciate a fun, lively musician. If you have a chance to see MC live, I would highly recommend it. Talk about a diverse, unique, enjoyable crowd.

Purchase I Run To You


Lady Antebellum "I Run to You" has great harmony, and has a great rythm and beat to keep you interested.Get more detail about I Run To You.

Where To Buy Spiders Eat The Flies


Sounds like mixing STP + Alice in Chains + Trent Reznor + something fresh. Reminds me of those influences but creates something that doesn't feel stale. I really hope these guys tour the west coast!Get more detail about Spiders Eat The Flies.

Shop For O'Carolan's/Welcome Christmas


The first part is nice christmas-y music. It's good background music, or good to just sit there and listen to. The last little part is 'Welcome Christmas' like the Who's sing in the Grinch movie. It was a nice ending, I thought, to all the non-vocal music.Get more detail about O'Carolan's/Welcome Christmas.

Six Degrees Free Indian Music Sampler Review


I downloaded this for free from Amazon. There were a couple of songs I deleted from it for being to trendy/rap. Otherwise a great CD. It has Indian Fever on it which was used on Darshan's instructional video.

Energetic CD.Get more detail about Six Degrees Free Indian Music Sampler.

Southern Voice This instant


The fist listen to Tim McGraw's Southern Voice CD and I thought, it's ok, but not up there with say Set This Circus Down. But then I listened a few more times and have decided Southern Voice is my favorite Tim McGraw CD. Every time I try to decide which song is my favorite I just can't.

I agree with some of the other reviews that It's A Business... and Southern Voice are the weakest songs on the CD - but they do seem like just the right stuff for today's radio. And except for those 2, every song on Southern Voice I can "feel it in my soul." They are slices of life and McGraw is a master at telling those stories. Even if we have not personally lived those stories we can all relate to them. I can SEE the story unfold as if I'm watching a video as McGraw is singing the songs.

I first heard Tim sing "Still" and "You Had To Be There" in concert summer of 2008 and loved them both from the first listen. "Still" reminds me to just be still an enjoy my life - all the fond memories of the past and those to come.

"If I Died Today" has me in tears every time I hear it. Admit it, who hasn't wondered what would happen ... "Love You Goodbye" tells a story that too many people have lived and is another that makes me tear up when I hear it.

The haunting melody is what first caught my attention on "Good Girls" but it was the lyrics that keep that attention. Another song that shows McGraw is not afraid to take risks.

The uptempo love gone wrong "Ghost Town Train" has a melody that stays in your head.

Southern Voice is a CD I have recommended to every one of my friends.

The River Immediately


Cool vocals and acoustic guitar ditty, with modern throwback 60's type vocals with that reverb'y sound efx and background vox. Real cool somber piece, would fit right in during a montage on the HBO vampire series "True Blood". Take care people...Get more detail about The River.

Ooh You Hurt Me So Order Now


I think this song is the best side of pop, a melody you can't get out of your head, classic production, great lyrics, it's a song you want to hear over and over. Get more detail about Ooh You Hurt Me So.

Echo Decide Now


I think this is a great cd, Every song is good.I was not a huge fan of her previous CD, really only liked the hits from that CD and nothing else however I like every song on this CD and it is rare that I find a CD I enjoy listening to from beginning to end.Get more detail about Echo.

Battle Studies Right now


As a long time John Mayer fan and a fellow musician, I have to say this album is a disaster. I have loved all of his other albums, but this one is nothing like them. He seems to be experimenting with a different sound-one which is not working for him. Some of the songs are very 80's sounding. His rendition of crossroads is terrible; I'm sure Robert Johnson is turning over in his grave. Get more detail about Battle Studies.

Lowest Price Wonderlust King (BBC Sessions)


So, I was watching MTVU and I saw the video for this. I thought it was a good song and downloaded it. (the actual version). I ove this song, so I recommend it to anyone in a mood to listen to fast pace music with a good sound that "isn't" generic for once. Hope you all can enjoy it as much as I do.Get more detail about Wonderlust King (BBC Sessions).

Low Price Night Castle (Amazon MP3 Exclusive Version)


This is a long awaited holiday blessing. Just saw there local concert here in Sacramento for the 4th year in a row, and heard several songs live as well. I am excited about there spring "Night Castle" tour. The album is great and classic TSO!!! Love the playful banter of heavy metal, story telling from Paul O'neil, and the Classical influence that is evident.Get more detail about Night Castle (Amazon MP3 Exclusive Version).

Save Ninna nanna


I have no idea why they put this in the "Pop/General" category.

Think Astrud Gilberto - Sultry vocals backed with Bossa Nova/Latin Jazz orchestrations.
It transports you to a scene in a1940's black and white film, set in a cafe in Rio, or Havana.

You would never believe this band was formed in Portland, Oregon to play at political fundraisers!
More interesting info on their website at [...]

I will definitely be adding this to my "relaxing music" playlist.Get more detail about Ninna nanna.

Discount Ryko: Flash Of Light Sampler


This free "Sampler" album recommendation by Amazon totally surprised me with some really good tracks by talented performers I had not heard of before. Right on!Get more detail about Ryko: Flash Of Light Sampler.

Cheapest Cowboy Casanova


I'm not generally a country-music fan. This crossover hit is so catchy, reminiscent of an early Shania Twain...and a perfect foil for Underwood's vocal talents. I like the tempo changes, and this is a welcome departure from so many of today's extremely synthesized numbers. This is a great song for every-day listening, and fast enough to include in a work-out mix. I hope it doesn't get to the overplayed-we-are-sick-of-it radio play status.Get more detail about Cowboy Casanova.
