The AFTERNOONS -
BABY YOU KNOW THE DEAL
|
|
****THIS ONE IS TOP OF THE POPS*****
I have put this one in my top 10 best power pop cds for 2007! The Afternoons are from Cardiff, England and this cd is a Spanish import that includes one "Hit" after another. Rarely does one album have this many great songs. Strong melodies, and songs that stick in your head like glue are what The Afternoons do best. The band's sound is very diverse and if members of The Left Banke, Beatles, The Cars, and The Ramones got together, it might sound like this. A true original..real strings, real brass, synths, fuzz guitars, jangly guitars , gentle, and powerful sounds, and even the kitchen sink thown in for good measure!! GRADE A!!!! *****

OUT OF PRINT!!! ONLY 1 copy in stock That's it!!!!!!
(IMPORT) This cd continues to be a Jam bestseller and for very good reason!!!One of the best cds in this catalog. American suitcase is a band that draws heavily from later period Teenage Fanclub and of course the Byrds!!!. The harmonies are superb and the songs are all excellent. Jangle pop of the highest order! Beautiful sounding music!!!! A+

American Suitcase -
Summerman
|
|
|
BACK IN STOCK ONCE AGAIN.THIS POWER POP CD continues to sell out!!!
This is super kool NORWEGIAN POWER POP!
This is a very psychedelic cd with beautiful vocal harmonies that deliver the goods. American Suitcase reminds me of an updated version of the Byrds in their classic era without being a clone!!! Also I can hear some Merrymakers production in the mix to further enhance the audio experience!
American Suitcase has their own charming sound which captures that Jingle Jangle fan, but this time on this release we find a bit more experimentation. In conclusion, this is a very lovely cd and I give it a full thumbs up! Get it!!!

PHIL ANGOTTI -
Afternoon Balloon
|
|
This is Phil Angotti and the Idea's 3rd and very hard to find release (and alone being worth the price of admission. On that cut, a Sgt. Pepper its one of the best!) The title track vibe radiates with tasteful use of strings etc..! The band branches out on this release covering a wide range of classic power pop stylings. From rock to baroque,this cd soothes the soul. The wonderful pure pop vocals of Phil Angotti tie everything together. Bottom line: Great power pop from Illinios! Grade A

The new Jam release by PHIL ANGOTTI is here! "EAST SIDE SOUL" is one of his strongest efforts to date complete with his full band "THE IDEA", the album covers everything from his rock and roll to his sublime pastoral sounds.

WAIT ANOTHER DAY

Great new cd on BLINDSPOT records. *BLINDSPOT* is Bart Mendoza's record label and he plays on this album...so already we know we're into something really good! Now on with the review. THE ANNA TROY BAND is great! I recently saw them live in Los Angeles, so I know what I'm talking about. This is the real deal. A real power pop/rocking/bluesy band that has a great female leader who can belt it out like a Joan Jett, or a Pat Benatar! The songs are catchy...the guitar playing superb! Production is sublime! If you enjoy female fronted rock bands this is an absolute must! One of the world's best and brightest new talents! Grade A

If you love 60's sunshine pop, you *really* need to check out Canada's best kept pop secret ARMSTRONG!!! They sound like so many of those 60's bands!With song titles like "SUNSHINE FEELING" it is obvious that this band is upbeat pop. They take their cues from bands like THE ORANGE PEELS, SIMON AND GARFUNKLE, THE CYRKLE, EDWARDS HAND, THE YELLOW BALLOON, THE MILLENIUM, THE ASSOCIATION, SAGITARIOUS,and more! Highly recommended to all fans of the genre! It's very nice music!

The AUTUMNS -
THE AUTUMNS +3 (Japan Import)
|
|
|
MY FAVORITE ALBUMS OF THEIRS. IF YOU HAVE NOT HEARD THEM: START WITH THIS ONE! (JAPANESE IMPORT WITH BONUS TRACKS!
The Autumns are one of California's best kept Shoegaze/dreampop secrets. Imagine if Jeff Buckley sang in a Shoegaze band. Imagine the Cure jamming good with Sigur Ros. The band is orchestral with very tender vocals and a wall of distorted guitars waiting to jump out of the shadows at any given moments. This is a beautiful, gentle, abrasive, dynamic cd. If you have never heard this wonderful band...this is the best place to start. Songs like "Wish Stars" and "Wonderful, wonderful" are so amazing that if you can't feel the impact--you just aren't human! Grade A* (japan import)
