Britney Spears
Featuring a flurry of musical moods from a variety of producers--everyone from The Outsyders and Lil to Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and Lady Gaga--Britney's new album, Circus is clearly a determined effort to haul herself back to the top of the pops after a particularly rocky year. Lead single “Womanizer", with its stuttering drumbeat, buzzing synths and hooky chorus, is reminiscent of the album's other sonic firework, the raunchy “If U Seek Amy". These fiery missives indicate that Britney is back on form--but many other songs come across as damp squibs in comparison. Her extensive use of Auto-Tune adds a robotic aspect to her voice, rendering certain ...
~Like A Circus~, 2009-01-06
...Like An art form more like...i have already written a more detailed review on the deluxe edition of Britney's fantastic Circus album so i will keep from repeating myself.
Overall this boasts such fantastic music and creative lyric writing which summs up the tragic last half-decade of Ms Spears,this makes it an entirely personal affair yet makes the album fully enjoyable by all people that love genuinely great music be it rock,dance,pop,or contemporary Circus mixes it all up to make this a modern epic classic album and the greatest 2008 had to offer,nominated for awards this year at MTV,Virgin and international websites Britney is making a comeback of grande proportions and she is in mighty fine form.
all tracks here should be released as singles and i hope Britney will continue her stunningly artistic music videos as seen in the recent Womanizer and Circus.
the perfect tracks(all with great range and styles)-Circus,Out From Under,If U Seek Amy,Unusual You,Mannequin,Mmm Papi,My Baby & Amnesia.
the stunning dance tracks-Womanizer,Shattered Glass,Kill The Lights,Lace & Leather,and Radar.
the personal track-My Baby
and the filler-Blur.
all tracks are perfect and this is an all the more enjoyable affair than Blackout(2007) yet matches its perfect golden uniqueness that made BRITNEY(2001)and IN THE ZONE(2003)shine above any other album in the genre.
the Queen is definately back!

Salvation Army
A good move by the Salvation Army, 2008-12-03
Hhhmmm - a few negative reviews because this is 1) not completely Christian music or 2) moves away from the tradition of Salvation Army bands and band music or 3) not up to the standard of Army bands and the Staff band specifically.
I'm afraid I can't agree - this is excellent and exactly what the Army should be doing, reaching out to people with something a bit more accessible. Reaching out and providing help and support is the heritage of the Army, after all "Heart to God and hand to man".
Over the last few years the Army and the work it does has become less and less visible, to the point where most people under 30 have no idea who or what the Salvation Army is. As a result this CD is just the sort of marketing the Army needs to remind people of its mission, its focus, its value to the community, while providing an uplifting and relaxing musical experience. Getting into the top 25 on the Amazon best sellers list is a commendable achievement and may there be many more like this in the future !

Kate Rusby
Carol singing and Yorkshire would seem to go hand in hand. Who better to record an album of Christmas carols then, than South Yorkshire’s own Kate Rusby? Regarded as one of the UK’s best folk singers thanks to breathtaking albums like Hourglass, Sleepless and the recent Awkward Annie, Sweet Bells gives us Rusby’s own repertoire of Christmas favourites. She mostly keeps things pared down to voice, guitar and accordion (played by frequent collaborator Andy Cutting), as well as the odd splash of brass from the Grimethorpe Colliery Band. Festive favourites mingle with lesser-known songs like &ldq...
 Kate does Christmas - beautifully, 2008-12-31
This is a lovely collection of songs. The potent combination of Kate's melancholy yet uplifting voice, gorgeous melodies and sympathetic arrangements (Kate and brass band - a match made in heaven) results in an experience that stays with you long after you have finished listening. It gets better with each play, and is a worthy addition to Kate's catalogue of beautiful, rich, resonant work.

Girls Aloud
Ever since they trounced rival boy band One True Voice in the 2002 final of Popstars (The Rivals), Girls Aloud have gone from strength to strength, blasting their way into the charts with every new release, even trashing The Spice Girl's record of 10 Top Ten singles with their own new record of 12 (and counting). The time is thus ripe for a Best Of anthology, which is exactly what The Sound Of Girls Aloud is. Raiding the quintet's three albums to date (Sound Of The Underground, What Will The Neighbours Say? and Chemistry) the collection offers all twelve of the band's chart-smashes to date, from early, breakthrough tracks (the surf-guita...
Girls Aloud = Love!, 2008-11-26
Girls aloud are the most fantastic girl group Britain has had for ages! All of the songs, are catchy and very very good! I booked tickets last week to go see them in tour next year! If your thinking of buying this cd, do, you wont look back!

Take That
Not just a re-release, 2007-12-30
Obviously all the TT fans from 10 years ago will have the greatest hits album but this gives you chance to have the greatest hits plus the additions of several live performances and also a previously unheard track 'today I lost you' classic Gary Barlow lead with great BVs by the rest of the fab 4. A must have for all TT fans.

Jools Holland with Ruby Turner
Britain’s favourite jazz man Jools Holland, along with his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra, have been bringing their consistent brand of big band boogie to the masses for a remarkable two decades. Featuring 17 tracks (three quarters of which have been penned by Jools), The Informer is the band’s latest collection of feelgood British soul, rollicking boogie-woogie and sassy swing. Featuring British soul singers Ruby Turner and Louise Marshall as well as famed ska/reggae trombonist Rico Rodriguez, The Informer gets off to a soaring start with opener “The Informer...
Big Band Back On Top!!!, 2008-12-18
Jools Holland and his big band had a run of incredibly impressive albums- the 'and friends' series, 'swinging the blues', and the excellent collaboration with Tom Jones. Then came the very disappointing 'Moving out to the country', and last year's greatest hits compilation, and I started to fear that Jools and the gang had started to lose their way and run out of ideas (though live they were still as good as ever). Then along comes this album, blowing away any doubts. They're back, they're on form, they're having a blast. This album does what Jools and co. do best - delivers a set of swinging tunes, designed to get you up and dancing. If you're not even tapping your feet to the music by the end of the last track you need urgent medical help!
The album contains a well selected set of covers and originals, played with decided vim and vigour by the band. Vocals are shared between Jools, the superb Ruby Turner, and Rico Rodriguez (on the standout ska track L-O-V-E). The band are on fiery form, meshing together superbly and delivering a wall of sound that's totally irresistable. The best bit though is that every one sounds like they are really enjoying themselves. This is music as it should be, none of your Miles Davis serious experimentalism here, just a bunch of friends having a load of fun and sharing the joy.
And that's just the first disc! Included in this release is a second album called 'Consider The Source', a selection of recordings taken from live concerts in Cathedrals. The emphasis here is on Gospel, with Ruby Turner really coming into her own. The set is fantastic, and really is how church ought to be! There'd be a lot more people there on a Sunday morning if we had hymns sung like this!
All in all an excellent, swinging album, which marks a return to form for a terrific group of fun loving musicians. Highly recommended to fans of swing, blues, ska, gospel, or just music lovers in general. This really is the next best thing to seeing them live.

Seasick Steve
The most unlikely of stars, sixty-something Seasick Steve Wold might have started out with nothin', but these days he can headline the Royal Albert Hall. The second solo album from the much travelled bluesman (and, let's not forget, studio owner--he didn't suddenly step off a boxcar with a demo tape in hand--refines the sound that made 2006's Dog House Music so instantly appealing. Guests include Ruby Turner, KT Tunstall (playing rather than singing) and Nick Cave and Grinderman--Cave and Steve duet on their collaboration "Just Like a King". The title track, "Started out With Nothin'", is as catchy as it is wise, "One True" laments Steve's late dog ("my one true fr...
SSS is a Blues God!!!!!!!!, 2008-12-13
There is little more to say than the subject above. SSS is simply the best exponent of the blues in a long long long time
Also buy 'Dog House Music' and 'Cheap' with the Level Devils. I promise you won't be disappointed **************************
