| | The Botanic Verses $14.74 Replacing early vinyl-only compilations as the definitive history of the band's earliest days, The Botanic Verses -- groaningly obvious pun of a title aside -- makes for mighty fine listening. If the March Violets never quite escaped the shadow of fellow Leeds denizens and early supporters the Sisters of Mercy, it's not for lack of trying -- Denbigh was no Andrew Eldritch clone in terms of singing style (though, like Eldritch, he clearly loved his David Bowie collection), while the dark, aggro surge of the music carved its own wired and romantic path. Guitarist Ashton and bassist Elliott found a reasonable space between Joy Division, Echo and the Bunnymen, and Bauhaus for their respective approaches, and were as much masters of shade, throb, and scalpel sharp guitar lines as anyone. Perhaps inevitably beginning and ending with the mighty punch of "Snake Dance" -- the initial version is the extended 12" mix, and arguably superior in terms of all around drama to the original -- The Botanic Verses isn't organized by any particular order of recording. Full recording details are provided for the trainspotters -- noted producer Flood got some of his earliest credits on a variety of tracks -- while it's very conveniently noted whether Garland or Murray was duetting with Denbigh at any particular point. It's no surprise in the end why the band essentially ended after Denbigh's departure in later years; when he was around, the tension usually built to the breaking point. The male/female vocal dynamic was definitely one of the March Violets' strong points, and their most successful tracks push that hard, whether it's the more immediately radio friendly dance-rock fury of "Walk Into the Sun" or the murkier edge of "Children on Stun." Plenty of other winners surface throughout: the slow-then-fast dank funk of "Slow Drip Lizard," the wonderfully vicious "Radiant Boys," the blunt "1 2 I Love You." ~ Ned Raggett, RoviPerformers: Cleo - Vocals; Rosie - Vocals |

| | Standards in Gray $12.97 Texas-based singer Kelly Gray made her recording debut on this CD. She displays a mature style and a deep expressive voice that is sometimes reminiscent of Sarah Vaughan (especially on parts of "How Long Has This Been Going On" and "Since I Feel For You"). Gray is at her best when she is bending notes or interpreting bossa-nova numbers. Her scatting is not quite up to that level and when she imitates a trumpet on the overlong "All Blues," it quickly evolves from being cute to becoming tiresome. Backed by a superior rhythm section (including pianist Dave Catney and guitarist Dwight Sills with guest appearances from saxophonist Warren Sneed), Kellye Gray is mostly in fine form for this date. If she could be a bit more subtle in her vibrato and in her emotional climaxes ("How Insenitive" gets a bit ridiculous) her music would grow in value. ~ Scott Yanow, RoviPerformers: Tom Anastasio - Bass; Dave Catney - Piano; Kellye Gray - Vocals; Dwight Sills - Guitar; Warren Sneed - Sax (Soprano), Sax (Tenor); Sebastian Whittaker - Drums |
| | Clockwork Gray $10.97 Tick... Tock...Tick... Tock... It's the sound of a heart that stopped. Pop, Pop, Pop, a series of shots, and a gangsta went in the ground. He tried to Feel the Sunshine, but all his days turned out gray. Gray as the ground, gray like dead flesh, and gray like the steel of a hot barrel. Still, the streets couldn't stop him, and the ground couldn't keep him. So he came back, with a heart full of horror and a mouth full of murder. He came back and he kept on comin'... Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock... It's the pulse, a beat, bumpin from beneath, comin up through the ground and filling the street. It's the inevitable pulse oftime, flowing from his soul. It's his ammunition. The undead have much, and now he wants control. The beat is felt in every step of his story. The pop of a gun. The drop of a casket. Then the explosion of rebirth, and the invasion in your speakers as his beat comes for you. The Undying defeated death, and he bumps on to his next hit, looking fo a pulse to fill his empty veins. The pulse of time... Clockwork Gray is the fourth solo album from Blaze, and it continues the tale of vengeance and indulgence of a man from beyond. And that's where he continues to go. Beyond death, beyond revenge, beyond hip-hop, beyond sexy, and beyond scary. It's a street story of getting what's his, but knowing there's always more to get. Clockwork Gray goes back in time to the darkness where it started, with heavy hip-hop beats and the realest ruthless rhymes. This Dead Homie is a shadow at your back, but is he there to keep you covered, or cover you with blood? Close your eyes and let the darkness in, but this time the casket may close on you...Performers: Jamie Madrox - Vocals |

| | The Gray Race $9.97 It's a testament to a band that their weakest work is still this great. There's no question that the loss of guitarist Brett Gurewitz hurts the band. Gurewitz had a hot, edgy sound, and wrote half the songs, including all four singles off 1994's stunning Stranger Than Fiction. Losing such an awesome talent would cripple most groups. Fortunately, the other writer, extraordinary vocalist Greg Graffin, remains. He too has penned so many of Bad Religion's most memorable songs, and one can now add a bunch from Gray Race to this list. Moreover, this LP shows why it's an enormous relief this band survives and still prospers -- there's no better punk rock band in the world. Not even close. No one else can mix such high octane tunefulness, the most thought-provoking lyric sheet around, and Graffin's still ungodly, powerful voice. Hell, does anyone in America deliver better harmonies than this bunch? No! The standouts are the mid-tempo chuggers -- "Pity the Dead" is so catchy it hurts, with a knockdown bridge that stops the heart as Graffin strains for a dramatic high note. Likewise, "Spirit Shine" and the radio hit "A Walk" show the kind of melodic gifts a band should have to beg Lucifer for. The only reason Gray Race is even remotely weaker than their other LPs is because sympathetic producer Ric Ocasek (the Cars) smoothes out the firepower a tad. As well, without Gurewitz's half, a couple of songs seem so-so by past standards, and there's less variety. But make no mistake, Gray Race is one of the finest LPs any American band released in 1996; may they make records 'til the title of this LP refers to their hair. ~ Jack Rabid, RoviPerformers: Brian Baker - Guitar; Jay Bentley - Guitar (Bass); Greg Graffin - Vocals; Greg Hetson - Guitar; Bobby Schayer - Drums |

| | We Can Fly [Collectors' Choice] $7.98 The third album by the Cowsills starts most promisingly with the appropriately soaring "We Can Fly," which features one of the most thrilling sunshine pop choruses of the group's career. Though nothing else on the album quite reaches those heights, this is probably the Cowsills' most consistently entertaining album. Featuring the highest percentage of original tunes by various Cowsill brothers, with only the somewhat treacly ballad "Yesterday's Girl" coming from an outside songwriter, We Can Fly is blessedly free of the lame covers and second-rate bubblegum castoffs that mar their other albums. The production, by Bill Cowsill and Bob Cowsill, incorporates the orchestral flourishes of the arrangements in an overtly Beatles-inspired pop/rock context, resulting in songs like the gently psychedelic "Beautiful Beige" and the sweet harmony pop of the Kinks-like "Mister Flynn" and "Gray, Sunny Day." After the requisite greatest-hits compilation -- you gotta have "The Rain, the Park and Other Things" and "Hair," after all -- We Can Fly should be the first avenue for further exploration. ~ Stewart Mason, Rovi |
| | Lucy Gray $13.97 Going into the recording of Lucy Gray, Envy on the Coast must have had it in mind to make sure no one could write them off as merely another simplistic emo group spawned from the sprawl that is Long Island. For them, that apparently meant not relying on huge choruses and cheeky lyrics (or even hooks, really) to fill space, as evidenced by the crackling piano- and guitar-driven bursts that fill Lucy Gray. And though the record is not as dramatic and technical as they might want one to believe, there is more noticeable ambition packed into these 12 rock songs than most of their peers attempt on album number one. Solid tracks like "Sugar Skulls," "Mirrors" and "The Gift of Paralysis" mesh dynamic vocals and dexterous guitars with subtly shifting rhythms that sometimes recall a band like Gatsbys American Dream. Minor dramatic touches -- as in the admittedly weird placement of choral singing in the brief "(X) Amount of Truth" -- further prove that these guys are purposely trying to craft more than the standard fare. It all adds up to more than enough to excite fans of their 2006 EP, not to mention deservingly win them some more. But a hard to ignore detail about Lucy Gray is that it needs to be tightened up. At almost fifty minutes in length, there's just too much extra fat on many of these tracks, which trimming away could do wonders in helping streamline the band's musical vision and strengthen songs into being more memorable. Plus instead of the piano ballad "Starving Your Friends" being a nice second-half break from the rest of the rather aggressively paced tracks, it only leads into another ballad from whose plodding grasp the album never fully recovers, causing it to simply fade out in a bland haze of guitars and static. Envy on the Coast is not quite where it wants to be (wherever that is, the guys probably haven't even decided yet), but this album -- despite its imperfections -- is still very much a worthy start. ~ Corey Apar, RoviPerformers: Daniel Nigro - Singer, Vocals; Bryan Russell - Glockenspiel, Keyboards; Bill Jain - Percussion; Brian Bryne - Guitar; Dan Nigro - Vocals; Dan Gluszak - Drums; Anthony Green - Vocals; Jeremy Velardi - Gui |

Tapestry - A Style Just Right for You
If you have never considered a tapestry as part of the wall decor of your home, you have been missing out from one of the most beautiful and individual art forms of all time. Although tapestries have been around for many centuries, the variety or selection of themes available today is by far what is so exciting about these woven works of magnificent art.
In the beginning tapestries were hand woven and took many, many hours of work to produce the final product. This left little to choose from in the form of tapestry subjects. The early tapestries were either likenesses of royalty or images conceived from Bible stories.
Down through time, with the invention of machines to produce tapestries, this art form became much less time consuming. The result was that tapestries could now be made with the same or better quality in a variety of different art topics and could be duplicated many times over for all who appreciated fine art at a reasonable cost.
Today you have choices. More choices than you could possibly imagine. So you have to ask yourself, “What am I looking for in a tapestry?” Only you have the answer to that question. The answer lies in the theme or basic decor of the room in which you plan to hang the tapestry.
There are several factors involved in choosing a tapestry for your decorating theme. You have to know style, genre, color and theme. Once you have answers to those, you now have to decide on size. But let’s not get too far ahead. We should go over this in deeper detail.
I’m going to start out with tapestry styles. When we talk about tapestry styles you have, but are not limited to Fine Art, Decorative, Modern, Vintage, Abstract, American Folk Art, Antique Traditional, Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Arts and Crafts, Classical, Cubism, Figurative, Impressionism, Native/Primitive, Neoclassicism, Post-Impressionism, Pre-Raphaelites, Realism, Renaissance, Romanticism, Traditional, Transitional, Viennese and Expressionism.
Try not to be overwhelmed by the long list of styles. This is good because you have something in this list that will complete the decor of almost any decorative theme a room could possibly have.
Now let’s explore genre. Genre actually sets the mood or topic of the tapestry. Here your choices are, but not limited to Action/Adventure, Alternative, Classical, Contemporary, Contemporary Still Life, Country and Rustic, Drama, Fantasy, Novelty, Patriot, Romantic, Still Life and Traditional Still Life. There are more genres, but this give you a starting point to explore.
Next you will want to consider color. After all, your tapestry should fit in with the color scheme of the room in which it hangs. With color you have black and white, blacks, blues, reds, browns, creams, golds, grays, greens, oranges, pinks, purples, tans, whites, yellows and multi-color. This is just a partial color list to give you an idea of the choices you have.
Last, but not least, you will want to consider themes to match the environment of the room you will proudly hang your tapestry. The theme you choose will set the entire mood or feel of the room. Whatever emotion you want to express will be brought to the forefront through the theme of your tapestry.
Here are some of the themes offered on these beautiful woven works of art. You have Entertainment, Fashion, Gambling, Nudes, Coffee/Tea, Wine, Fruits/Vegetables, Cuisine, Angels, Portrait, Figures, Botanical, Bouquet, Mediterranean, Backyards & Patios, Countryside, Desert, Farms, Floral/Plants, Formal Gardens, Fruits, Lake & Pond, Landscape, Nature/Outdoors, River and Streams, Seaside, Southwestern, Still Life Plants, Towns, Trees, Tropical, Cityscapes, Architecture, Storefronts, Architectural Detail, Buildings, European Buildings, Houses, Restaurants/Bars, Children's Art, Antique Maps, Maps, Animals, Birds, Fish/Marine Life, Jungle Wildlife, Birdcages, Dogs, Horses, Insects, Shells, Tropical Birds, Wildlife, Medieval, Native American, Victorian/British, War/Military, Mythology, Pottery and Vases, Antique, Sports, Holidays and Special Occasions, Motivational and Religious.
Although the list of themes above is quite large, it only touches on a small part of all the themes available on a wall tapestry. I provided you with this list of tapestry themes in order to give you an idea of the big picture (no pun intended). I wanted you to see just how large a selection is truly available to you.
The great benefit of adding a tapestry to the decor of any room is how the room comes alive with emotion. No matter what style, genre, color or theme, you will always have a feeling of pride when you enter a room that displays a tapestry proudly.
