Kierstin Gray - anything&everything
(thesecondedition)
Like Jone Armatrading & Tracy Chapmen, Kierstin Gray is making her mark on the world.
If the rhythm, tempo and lyrics on this Cd don't get you smiling and motivated to do more, you must be asleep at the wheel. Sound your horn and tell your friends Kierstin Gray is coming to town. Wow!

It's in Your Heart by Darrell Blaine
A true folk singer in every sense. Blaine has the energy of Richie Havens and the heart of a child, the words are easily heard & understood. Playing guitar Darrell Blaine builds each song telling stories. Poignant and accurate you may find yourself hitting rewind before the song is even done to hear those lyrics again.

ONE by Lew Doty

Wow! What a voice, folk music has long been used to forward the progress of the 'Good Word'. Lew Doty has elevated this effort to a new level. With a full band backing him up, this CD is great. Filled with toe tappin, heart smilin, spirit liftin sounds this cd will take up residency in one of the 5 spots on your 5 disc cd player.

The Soul Wakes by Michael London

Musical explorations of the mystical poetry
of Jalaluddin Rumi, 13th Century Sufi master and poet, 1207-1273. Michael London on Guitars, vocals, Tibetan bells, guitar synth and percussion is wonderful. Come listen to the samples tring to discribe this is too hard. Each musician plays masterfully like one sound being made in perfect unity. Wow!

The Watch Man by Arlon Bennet
The balance of this amazing body of work just keeps getting better with each song. The ‘Watch Man' will have you playing his Album over and over again. The songs have a wonderful range of folk, blues, sometime sultry, sometimes rock'in, smooth and loving. Guest singer Renee Safier on ‘Have You Seen Me' is a perfect match to accompany Arlon Bennet's voice. It's like a gift to us all.

Mo Music by
Mo Stroemel

The songs are true folk style, strumming guitar, a little bass, accompanying guitar, and the occasional full arrangement. Mo's voice is unassuming, relaxing and very easy to listen to all day long. Let the stories of victories and noble struggles begin as told by Mo Stroemel.

Wood, Wind & Wire performs "roots nouveau music" that blends american folk music and americana - roots music with a sentimental touch. Hammered Dulcimer, acoustic guitar and bowed psaltery abound with modern flavorings and influences from appalachian, americana, roots and american folk music.

Cosmopolitan Rock

Knowing Love By It's Absence
Wynne Alexander's style is very interesting. She's been called cabaret and I can see that surely, but there's something else here to that I can't put my finger on. She uses strong heart pounding drumbeats and her deep sensuous voice, at times sounding like a carnival and at times an epic film score. Her lyrics are also very clever and well thought out. Wynne’s new CD has attracted critical acclaim from America's heartland to the capitals of Europe. Produced, arranged and almost completely performed by Alexander, she tackles the full range of human emotion.

Gospel


A Song Bird Sings 'Inside of Me'
by Rhetta A. Green
This is one you need to listen to all the way through to really appreciate the range and style. From Big Band to Gospel to a kind of dreamy old time crooner. Rhetta has a flare all her own, like Ella Fitzgerald or Betty Carter Rhetta is now making her place with these faithful songs.

I Will Praise Him
by The New Faith Singers

This Cd titled "I Will Praise Him!" is the first from Gwendolyn E. Green, four voices harmonizing in a truly Gospel style, sometimes with a church organ, sometimes acappella. This is a determined selection of faithful songs proclaiming Glory in the name of Jesus.

Drexel University Gospel Choir
by Director Rev. Greg Ross
Modern Gospel?, Rock'in Soul?, The Jazziest Jazz?, Rhythm & Blues?
How about all of the above! Wow, This CD breaks the mold and sets a new standard for Gospel singers and directors. Get up and clap because sitting still is not an option with this one. Using rhythms and accompaniments that will appeal to the masses, this is an A+ hit. After one listening we just pressed the repeat button and listened again. Can I get an AMEN! Congratulations Drexel University.!

A`cappella

Songs of Divine Wisdom
Sung by M.R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen(Ral.)
Sung completely a cappella in the language of Tamel and simultaneously spoken in English by the second voice of a translator. There is a melodic peacefulness that slowly beckons us, come closer, come closer. Like a tuning fork that has been struck causing that same sound in us to ring. It is the ring of truth that calls us. This is quite time music to understand the words. It also works extremely well as back ground, while working on a task at home or while driving. You will find your ability to focus has become enhanced. Understanding the words will bring even greater meaning to your life...

Instrumental: Meditation/Spiritual

Dolphins by Frederic Delarue

Piano- acoustic and electric, woodwinds, ocean sounds, dolphin sounds, sweet strings, chimes, and many orchestra sounds. How can you make the music sing the message of "Surrender to God"? Frederic Delarue enchants us with his sounds of unity with our maker. Wether you sit quietly to merge with the efforts of these beautifully inspiring sounds, to "Feel the Peace in Your Heart" (track 8)
or just in your car for the drive to work or home stereo while preparing dinner for the family, you will feel as though embraced by the arms of compassion, as though you were given permission to peer into the window of a secret place. Dolphins by Frederic Delarue is a must have. It sounds as though an entire orchestra is playing, but it's just Frederic or is it just Frederic?

KOTO KEYS
by: Mara Purl & Marilyn Harris

Japanese Harp & Acoustic Paino
Music for Meditation and Relaxation.

Sometimes we just need to have a little peace. Without the clutter of words we can focuse on our spirit in our own way. These sounds will craddel you like the womb. The day slowly melts away and you've found a place of calm waters, sweet jasmin, lite breezes, ahhhh... the music has completed it's mission...calm cool and collected.

Bob Gold - DEPARTURES

Bob Gold has concentrated on solo acoustic piano work, in performance and recording. While continuing to freelance in area clubs and hotels, much of his time has gone into the recording and mixdown of his first album, Departures. You can almost feel his heart beating as Gold shares his emotional songs. The piano sings his words, his tender touch is felt, and our hearts are soothed.

Pop/Rock

ICU In DANDYLIONS
by brokenNess

Carefully produced, the musicians are nothing less then skilled professional, and the creativity is wonderful. ICU In Dandylions by BrokenNess is a real life Pop/rock album, not heavy rock, but not soft rock either, a nice compromise in-between. ...If your alive and among the living there will be songs on this amazing album (Cd) that will drive directly into your heart... The stories of evolution, of coming of age, the stories of awakening....

POSEIDON'S SON by Kati Mac
Poseidon's Son is Kati's fourth CD. She got the idea for the CD while working at Club Med and still recovering from the World Trade Center disaster. The title song, Poseidon's Son, is about the healing power of the ocean and love. "For about a year, various things would trigger a panic attack in me. It was weird. Hard to talk about. At Club Med, watching guests play on the trapeze and fall to the net really shook me. I realized that the song I would write about my experience with 9-11 would be called Trapeze. I seriously feel like the melody and lyric of that piece were channeled. I've never had that happen before. It is definitely the perspective of the people I watched die that day, not mine."

Jacobs Well is not only a Christian Band with an Alternative Rock Sound but a Rock Solid Foundation in Jesus Christ. Jacobs Well was formed in 1998 and based out of First Assembly of God, Fort Wayne, Indiana. They are a group of 6 Christian men along with their wives and children.
