***Remy Shand 'The Way I Feel'---This was one of the most refreshing CDs I heard this year.Smooth,breezy,70s'-styled soul music by the very talented Shand.This album is mesmerizing.
***Santana 'Shaman'---Carlos delivers another winning album filled with many treats and surprises.Some songs have to "grow" on you,but overall,it's a fun,joyful album. ***Marc Anthony 'Mended'---Marc is one of the best singers in the biz and this album (his second English-language CD) is excellent,containing fierce uptempo Latin jams ("Tragedy") and beautiful love ballads ("She Mends Me"). ***Lauryn Hill 'Unplugged'---Many people thought Lauryn was insane for following up 'Miseducation' with this 2-CD acoustic set.But I think it's brilliant and captivating.One can only wonder what she will do next. | |
