98) Various Artists "Rise" is the soundtrack to a new independent film bearing the same name, chronicling the life of an electronic music scene promoter " The trippy dance track would play well in the clubs, as children of Cheap Trick fans who swooned over "I Want You To Want Me" discover the band on their own terms â€â€?Wayne Parry, AP Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "What's In The Bag?" (Razor & Tie, $17 " Smither always has been willing to reinterpret another artist when it suits his purpose, and he makes "Desolation Row" and the three other covers on "Train Home" his own The subtle arrangement of "Desolation Row," with Bonnie Raitt's mournful slide guitar, ghostly horns and almost martial percussion, turns this jaded epic into a masterpiece Not their best album by far, but still worth a listen or three " â€â€? Mark Donahue, AP Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Man @ Work" (Compass, $17 98) â€â€? Chris Smither While Chris Smither is a great songwriter, the centerpiece of his 11th album, "Train Home," is a cover â€â€? Bob Dylan's "Desolation Row 98) â€â€? Jane's Addiction If Jane's Addiction had been forgotten as a burnout band that recorded only a few albums before disbanding under the weight of their own success, they're giving fans a new reason to remember them on "Strays Hay is at his best when works alone And that's the thing about Smither â€â€? he's subtle "Strays" is a raw free-for-all, tempered by age and experience Other laggard tunes include "Roaches" by Trancesetters and "NTrance" by Nico, which are both understated, dark interpretations of a much livelier scene The two best tracks are buried in the middle â€â€? the thumping "I Feel Good" by Charles Feelgood and "Party People" by Hawk featuring Atomsmasher He's not an in-your-face singer, he's not a 300-beats-per-minute guitarist The album's only departure is in "Everybody's Friend," an acoustic ballad about losing a friend " Included are a flood song, a road song, a carnival song and even a love song 98) â€â€? Cheap Trick This is not your father's Cheap Trick album, and because of that, a new generation of fans may soon be grooving to the rockers 98) â€â€? Joe Ely Joe Ely has been singing twangy heartland rock for more than 30 years, so it's no surprise that there are no surprises on his 15th album, "Streets of Sin Certainly, Mya has some appeal of her own In a weathered voice he sings of acceptance and transcendence with lyrics that would make a Buddhist monk nod in recognition In fact, the songs that stay in your head most borrow their hooks from other hits: On one track, she reworks Tom Petty's "Freefallin"; on "Sophisticated Lady," she uses the music from Rick James' "Cold Blooded"; and on the sexy "My Love is Like On his blue guitar, he plays tunes in a style that would make Mississippi John Hurt proud He sings like a reformed sinner who still delights in old memories: "Perhaps this is as good as it gets/ When you've given up the drink and those nasty cigarettes/ Now I leave the party early, at least with no regrets," he sings in the opening track "Beautiful World," a remix from his 1998 solo album "Company of Strangers Throughout the album, Green strings together fractured pop culture references ("Jessica Simpson where has your love gone, it's not in your music") and snippets of vivid poetry ("prostitute fingers fumbling with matches"), all sung with deadpan delivery They're the only thing on the disc worth moving to The disc's highlights are a version of the Men At Work ballad "Overkill" and a rerelease of his 1993 song "Waiting For My Real Life To Begin," both featuring nothing by Hay's voice and his own acoustic guitar " A bonus version of "Down Under" features a Latin brass accompaniment from the Wild Clams and soul-salsa singer Cecilia Noel, who sings backup on a few other tracks Among the highlights is "Twisty River Bridge," in which the protagonist drives off a bridge But most of the album is just run-of-the-mill R&B that goes in one ear and out the other Though at times fun and funky, it's also very forgettable Have a nice day As the title suggests, the collection of remakes includes early 1980s hits from his Australian band Men At Work, but the familiar songs "Down Under" and "Who Can It Be Now?" are reincarnated here in stripped-down acoustic style "Suffersome" follows the same, only spicing the sound with syncopated rhythms and a bit of electronica , and it sometimes sounds like a demo His lyrics require listeners to think, a dangerous attribute in today's music business Ely opens the disc with two tunes that make Joe Everyman seem heroic, then reminds us on "Wind's Gonna Blow You Away" that we're all going to die What will Adam Green say next? Perhaps something introspective: "I don't go out for months without my Barnes and Noble credit card Ely finds fresh twists in these shopworn subjects, sharing his populist sensibility and dry wit in a pinched tenor that fronts sturdy, no-frills arrangements His voice is right up front: clear and uninflected, tinged with satire and insomnia Selected Audio Reviews Jul 23, 3:03 PM EST Selected Audio Reviews: "Strays" (Capitol, $18 Y The first song, "Will We Ever," is a slow waltz, and the second, "Where Home Used To Be," is just a bit faster Those tracks are repetitive sleepers which bring the CD to an aural halt Her voice, while as light as a bird's, is sweet and charming, and she always has at least one song that's so unusual lyrically that it sticks in your head for a bit: for example, "Late" could be the perfect jingle for a home pregnancy test ad 98) â€â€? Mya Although Mya's been on the R&B scene for a good five years now, it's hard to think of a song she's made that has had any lasting impact The CD is a stinker â€â€? Steven Wine, AP Writer "Someday when your bones turn to dust, that wind's going to blow you away," he sings If the movie is anything like the soundtrack, keep your popcorn money in your pocket As unlikely as it seems, the '70s stalwarts could have the rave hit of the summer in "Low Life In High Heels-Hummer " Underneath the song's sunny, fairy tale front, a menace seethes But at its heart is Green strumming his acoustic guitar " The songs sounds stifled and Crystal Method could have done better " Opening with "True Nature", a high-energy guitar onslaught that sets the tempo for the entire album, 44-year-old singer Perry Farrell cries through poetry with a voice that hasn't changed an octave since 1990, when the band released it's last album "Ritual De Lo Habitual â€â€? Steven Wine, AP Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Friends of Mine" (Rough Trade, $15 While Crenshaw's music is usually more bouncy, his melodies on "What's In the Bag?" remain as catchy as ever There's a lot fewer rockers here than Cheap Trick is usually known for, "Scent Of A Woman" and "Sorry Boy" notwithstanding, but the Lennon-ish "Words" and the poppy "My Obsession" make for intersting listening That's especially true when the final cut â€â€? the instrumental "AKA `A Big Heavy Hot Dog'" â€â€? ends abruptly, a casual conclusion to a laid-back set â€â€? Nekesa Mumbi Moody, AP Music Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Special One" (Big3, $17 Wo," the catchy hook from Black Rob's rap hit "Whoa!" becomes the focal point of her uptempo dance groove Crenshaw recorded most of the album at his home studio in Woodstock, N Smither is an American original, a product of the musical melting pot, and one of the absolute best singer-songwriters in the world â€â€? Anthony Breznican, AP Entertainment Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Rise: The Story of Rave Outlaw Disco Donnie" (Utensil, $15 " Each track follows a groove of punk and indie rock Hay's wry voice is a little deeper, a little rougher, but just perfect for emphasizing the bittersweet feeling of the music â€â€? a contrast to the upbeat memories of those songs from two decades ago That likely won't change with "Moodring," her third disc Crystal Method puts up a weak front to kick off the mixed dance track CD with "Roll It Up "Friends of Mine," his second album, adds polish to his skewed tunes, with a string section on all but one song "Carnival Bum" is the most ambitious tune musically, with spoken verses and tempo shifts "Train Home" is well worth taking Among the most hummable are two instrumentals, along with the dreamy "A Few Thousand Days Ago" and "The Spell Is Broken," which could pass for an outtake from his first record But several other songs lack energy, including covers of Prince's "Take Me With U" and Bootsy Collins' "I'd Rather Be With You This evenhanded treatment of lyrical matter charges each new verse with anticipation " Still, it's a satisfying set, with 12 songs that Ely describes as "a bunch of stories from the B-section of the newspaper â€â€? Eric Fidler, AP Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Streets of Sin" (Rounder, $17 â€â€? Ryan Lenz, AP Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Moodring" (Interscope, $18 "Love, wine and jealousy don't mix with gasoline," Ely observes The downtempo offerings also seem misplaced 98) â€â€? Adam Green Adam Green is a 22-year-old, freewheeling singer-songwriter of the new New York music scene â€â€? a combination of the Washington Square Park folkies and today's indie malcontents 98) â€â€? Marshall Crenshaw From the opening bars of "What's In The Bag?," it's evident that talented tunesmith Marshall Crenshaw is in a mellow mood â€â€? Ron Harris, AP Writer â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? "Train Home" (HighTone; $17 But even here the band's wild California sound comes out in guitarist Dave Navarro's somewhat nostalgic rock solos Some parts of "Friends of Mine" run together unforgettably, but much of it sticks, like "Bunnyranch 98) â€â€? Colin Hay In the best possible sense, "Man @ Work" is like Colin Hay's cover version of his own greatest hits album "Wrong Girl" tells of the perils of relationships over funked out guitar riffs and fills The jazzy "If I Could" sounds more like Rickie Lee Jones than Rick Nielsen, and "Best Friend" pretty much defines how loudly a human being can scream before suffering a brain aneurism It's a perfect return for a band that always lived on the fringe " Four of the 11 cuts feature a vibraphone and acoustic bass, giving those tunes a slightly jazzy feel, and there's also a cello and pedal steel Sounding very dated with strains of industrial metal sprinkled over plodding melodies, "Rise" fails to excite The song is little more than lead singer Robin Zander humming along to an infectious backbeat, backed by a kazoo (really!) and some ZZ Top-ish guitar squeals from Rick Nielsen, but it's the kind of song you can't get out of your head The government says they were tipped that ImClone founder Sam Waksal was selling his shares Jury Selection Begins in Stewart Case Jan 6, 11:06 AM EST Hundreds of potential jurors in the Martha Stewart trial filed into a federal courthouse Tuesday to fill out questionnaires drawn up by prosecutors and the homemaking maven's defense team 20 Jurors filled out the forms Tuesday under tighter-than-usual security Michael Kulstad, a spokesman for federal prosecutors, declined comment on the changes 27, 2001, a day before a negative government report sent its share price tumbling Federal agents were stationed outside entrances to the large rooms where potential jurors gather No new charges were contained in the new indictment Opening arguments should come several days after that While Stewart and Bacanovic will have to re-enter their pleas of innocent because of the new indictment, it was not expected to delay the start of the trial On Monday, the government filed a new indictment against Stewart and Bacanovic, making mostly cosmetic and typographical changes Still, prosecutors did change some of the language in the indictment, substituting the phrase "false and misleading" for "false" when referring to explanations Stewart gave investigators for her ImClone sale The jury questionnaire has not been made public by the federal judge who will oversee the case, and the prosecution and defense have declined to release it Lawyers on both sides will receive hundreds of completed questionnaires Wednesday, then spend two weeks reviewing them before interviewing some jurors in person on Jan Judge Miriam Goldman Cedarbaum has ordered the media not to speak to potential jurors, citing the need for an unbiased jury and saying she was acting at the request of both the prosecution and defense The two are accused of concocting a false story about why Stewart sold nearly 4,000 shares of ImClone Systems stock Dec Stewart and her also-indicted former stockbroker, Peter Bacanovic, were not in court Tuesday Filling out the questionnaires marked the beginning of jury selection in Stewart's trial on charges she lied to the government about her sale of ImClone Systems stock in 2001 20 Their plea appearance was not immediately scheduled Stewart and Bacanovic claim they had a previous arrangement to sell ImClone when it dipped to $60 per share They are scheduled to make their first appearances at the trial Jan |
