V/A – The Princess & The Warrior – CD (Trauma Records) The music is very airy, the vocals are whispy and it all comes together is a soundtrack that is best described as beautiful. The first half of the CD is composed of songs with vocals, while the...

V/A – The Out of Towners – CD Milan Records) This release starts out with one of those cheesy duets that I hate. Even though the rest of the CD is speckled with a few decent tunes, I wouldn’t recommend this release. {Mite}...

V/A – Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels – CD (Maverick Records) I have heard this movie described as a combination of Pulp Fiction and Trainspotting. This movie soundtrack seems to lean more toward that of Pulp Fiction, but isn’t as strong. Soul,...

V/A – Forces of Nature – CD (Dreamworks Records) A soundtrack full of pop-poop. I can actually remember when U2 use to be cool and not some musical whore. The many covers on this release are horrible. There are a few standouts like Tricky’s “Slowly”,...

V/A – Transmission Four – CD (Space 380 Music) This is the fourth comp released by Space 380 (hence the name of the disc). I think that this is one of the better comps that I’ve heard. It has a variety of bands, but not to wide of a range that they don’t...

V/A – Tea for 2000 – CD (Beggars Banquet) Talk about one great f-n’ compilation CD. The folks at Beggars Banquet put together nineteen killer tunes from nineteen killer bands that have a groovin’ dance ethereal sound. I’ve been listening...

V/A – Swing This, Baby! III – CD (Slimstyle / Beyond / BMG) This is a collection of 15 swing bands that I’ve never heard of before now. The only one that sounds familiar is Gary Setzer & King Cadillac, and that’s due to him being related to Brian...

V/A – Sweet Emotion/Songs of Aerosmith – CD (Heavy Hip Mama) I’ve gotten a few of this type of compilations where blues greats cover rock songs. However, where the other CD’s had more of a blues sound to begin with (Eric Clapton, Jimmy Hendrix), this...
