New Album Releases, Week of 5-2-2006
This week we get several releases by some big name acts, though I'm not seeing anything particularly interesting. I might could go for new mother Carnie Wilson's A Mother's Gift: Lullabies from the Heart. A duet of "You Are So Beautiful" with her father might be worth hearing.
Jewel has a new album, Goodbye Alice in Wonderland. She's given up on the mildly interesting tact of having gone dance-pop to return to the tried and true (or trite and boring) confessional singer-songwriter stuff. Her music might be so-so and and overly earnest, but danged if that's not a hot picture on the album cover. If they'd just put out a CD with that cover with, say, a classic Joni Mitchell record on the inside- then you'd have something.
Tool has a new album 10,000 Days that has been a big deal on the net. It's currently #5 at Amazon on the day of release. They've never made any impression on me, but what do I know? Sister Jessa will be happy to tell you all about it, though.
Oh, and there's also a new Pearl Jam album out, if'n you don't have enough tuneless caterwauling in your collection.
HINT: There's a REAL record coming out next week. You might want to save your money for Paul Simon's Surprise.
