Free as a Bird [Germany CD Single] $9.59 Everyone in the world had an opinion about the “new” Beatles single “Free As A Bird” in late 1995. Mine is that it’s not half bad — which is far from being great. And great was what the world expected in the wake of a massive, and somewhat misleading marketing campaign. If you are a moderate Beatle fan and just want a copy of the new song, this may be the most economical way to get it. If you are a completist, note that this four-song, 13-minute-and-40-second EP is baited with three previously unreleased tracks, studio take nine of “I Saw Her Standing There,” two incomplete takes of “This Boy,” and a newly edited version of the fan club-only seasonal song “Christmas Time (Is Here Again).” ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi |

Free $15.99 2007 release. Born in Aachen, Germany, David Garrett was a prodigy violin soloist, who had reached and surpassed many an important milestone before his matriculation at Juliard in New York. The child of an American mother and a German father, David’s interest in violin began at the age of four, when his older brother received a violin from his father — who himself was a antique stringed instrument dealer. A year later, David had already won a competition, and by seven was playing in public as often as possible. Within five more years, David had gone on to play with an orchestra (playing Mozart) and at the age of ten made his concert debut. As his teenage years dawned, David had already released two albums, and appeared on television. This kind of talent was quickly picked up by Deutsche Grammophone, who offered him and signed a contract with him at the age of 14. He graduated Juliard in New York in 2004, after having been a student with Itzhak Perlman. He played with many of the world’s orchestras, and in 2007 he played with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, with whom David toured the United States in 2008. |

To Be Free $39.98 There’s no question that Nina Simone is richly deserving of a three-CD (plus one DVD), 51-song box set such as To Be Free. From the late ’50s until her death, she was one of the great unclassifiable pop singers of the 20th century, and if her voluminous recording career was erratic, the first 15 years at any rate had many highlights. Any complaint about this particular package has more to do with the balance of eras represented than the quality of the contents, which is generally very good. If one is to criticize, however, it’s that it does seem heavily weighted toward her 1967-1973 recordings for RCA, which take up about two-thirds of the three audio discs. Perhaps that’s because it’s on the RCA/Legacy label, but certainly a good case could be made that her pre-1967 recordings for a variety of other companies (most often Philips) were worthy of greater representation. To focus on the positives, however, most of disc one does include strong pre-RCA tracks from the first decade of her recording career, including some of her best-known classics of the time, like “My Baby Just Cares for Me,” “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood,” “See-Line Woman,” “I Put a Spell on You,” and “Four Women.” While the RCA era arguably saw her move too much into pop-oriented production on occasion and too many covers of pop/rock hits, the selections from that era are chosen with intelligence, including a good number of live tracks. The two post-1973 cuts — one from 1978 and one from her final proper album, 1993′s A Single Woman — seem like afterthoughts to ensure that most of her career was covered in some way, but that’s justifiable considering that the last three decades of her life saw little in the way of noteworthy recordings.Though there’s not much in the way of rarities, the set also does contain half a dozen previously unreleased live tracks of merit; four songs from the hard-to-find album A Very Rare Evening, recorded live in Germany in April 1969; and a couple (a live cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Suzanne” and an alternate version of “Ain’t Got No — I Got Life”) that make their first U.S. appearance. The most tantalizing item for serious Simone fans is the DVD of a 1970 television special, though it turns out to be a little less exciting than one might have hoped. Lasting just 23 minutes, it intersperses scenes of her recording in the studio and performing on-stage (most of the songs being fragments, highlighted by a complete live version of “Go to Hell”) with interview snippets in which Simone offers basic comments on the rewards and difficulties of being a creative musician. Still, in all this is a very good box set illustrating Simone’s facility at jumping between and blending numerous genres, including soul, pop, rock, jazz, Broadway, classical, and even (on the previously unissued 1973 live performance “Nina”) world fusion music of sorts with backing by sitar and kalimba. Just don’t necessarily take it as a summation of all her greatest work, with much mo |

Transformer [Germany] $16.79 David Bowie has never been shy about acknowledging his influences, and since the boho decadence and sexual ambiguity of the Velvet Underground’s music had a major impact on Bowie’s work, it was only fitting that as Ziggy Stardust mania was reaching its peak, Bowie would offer Lou Reed some much needed help with his career, which was stuck in neutral after his first solo album came and went. Musically, Reed’s work didn’t have too much in common with the sonic bombast of the glam scene, but at least it was a place where his eccentricities could find a comfortable home, and on Transformer Bowie and his right-hand man, Mick Ronson, crafted a new sound for Reed that was better fitting (and more commercially astute) than the ambivalent tone of his first solo album. Ronson adds some guitar raunch to “Vicious” and “Hangin’ Round” that’s a lot flashier than what Reed cranked out with the Velvets, but still honors Lou’s strengths in guitar-driven hard rock, while the imaginative arrangements Ronson cooked up for “Perfect Day,” “Walk on the Wild Side,” and “Goodnight Ladies” blend pop polish with musical thinking just as distinctive as Reed’s lyrical conceits. And while Reed occasionally overplays his hand in writing stuff he figured the glam kids wanted (“Make Up” and “I’m So Free” being the most obvious examples), “Perfect Day,” “Walk on the Wild Side,” and “New York Telephone Conversation” proved he could still write about the demimonde with both perception and respect. The sound and style of Transformer would in many ways define Reed’s career in the 1970s, and while it led him into a style that proved to be a dead end, you can’t deny that Bowie and Ronson gave their hero a new lease on life — and a solid album in the bargain. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Performers: Barry DeSouza – Drums; David Bowie – Vocals (Background), Vocals; Herbie Flowers – String Bass, Multi Instruments, Tuba, Bass, Guitar (Bass); John Halsey – Drums; John Halzey – Drums; Klaus Voormann – Guitar (Bass), Bass; Lou Reed – Keyboards, Guitar, Vocals; Mick Ronson – Multi Instruments, Recorder, Vocals (Background), Piano, Guitar; |
