Van Hunt - Use in the case of Emergency (rare items from the vault)

You can only get it at vanhunt.com He's also got another all new studio album coming out (likely in September) which some are already calling his opus.

I just saw this group the Noisettes on VH1soul last night during
the sub soul artists hour. Pretty good.


They're fantastic. Shingai might be the best frontwoman working today. Their first album (What's The Time, Mr. Wolf?) is on iTunes and, while much fuzzier and harder-edged than Wild Young Hearts, she shines brightly and the songs have a great variety.

Seriously?

I personally think Christina is a phenomenal singer, but I haven't been terribly fond of her albums. Is the new really a 'must have' ?


I love her albums because her lyrics are good, her voice is amazing, and she always does something different. That's the one thing that Christina has done with every single album she's released. From her bubblegum pop debut, to 'Stripped', (which was hip-hop and rock oriented), to B2B (which had jazz and blues influence throughout), she's thrown something different on the table with each new release and I respect any artist who doesn't stick to the same formula album after album after album...boring. That's what I consider to be a talented artist when they step outside of their comfort zone and try different genres but that's just me.

Everyone keeps pointing out that since Christina's upcoming album is going to be a 'Lady Gaga experience' (whatever the hell that means rolleyes ) that makes it less than interesting for some reason. Seriously, Lady Gaga ain't really doing anything that hasn't already been done several times thoughout the years, so I really don't get all the hysterics surrounding her at the moment. shrug

Her 'sound' was being done throughout the 80s and early to mid 90s. It's called techno, house, electronica with some hip-hop/pop undertones. Ain't nothin' even remotely 'new' or 'innovative' about Lady Gaga that I can see, but she's amusing, writes her own material, plays instruments, and has a good voice. Bjork, Elton John, and Grace Jones were doing the outrageous costumes waay before the world even knew what a Lady Gaga was. I like some of her stuff but she's nothing to fall out over (JMHO). I'm anxious to see Christina do an electronic album because she's a vocalist and I love when techno/house DJs remix songs by vocalists like Mariah, Whitney, and Jennifer, so that's why I'm anticipating Chris's new album. Just my twocents smile

this is good too. all of the songs from the Jan/Feb 1969 sessions in Memphis (both albums plus all the A/B-side singles and some bonus tracks). picked it up for $15 at Wal-Mart when I was on a midnight hunt for the Beatles:








but I suppose you meant something a little more "current" lol
