I was thinking today about how much Stevie Nicks' The Wild Heart needs a remaster. The version that I have is so soft and muted. While turning up the volume of the individual tracks inside iTunes has helped some, it just doesn't sound as crisp as her later recordings. Even Bella Donna sounds better! I've always maintained that The Wild Heart is the bridge between the acoustic/classic rock of Bella...

Lights perform some sorta fuzzed out disco ritual in their video for “Fire Night.” I wonder if they’re trying to summon Stevie Nicks through the use of magic and glitter. But whatever, “Fire Night” is all about vocal harmonies over fuzzed out guitar with one kick ass bass line. This might (might) be the best [...]

It was 19 years ago this week (can you believe it’s been that long?) that the Milli Vanilli lip-synching scandal came to a head – the duo were stripped of their Grammies after it was revealed that they didn’t sing a single note on the Girl You Know It’s True album. But they [...]

By Bry Schulz3 1/2 Stars:When I think of Gina Gershon, I think of her lesbian roles in movies like “Bound” and “Showgirls.” She's sort of an Indie darling and gives off a total "not to be effed with" vibe. Imagine my surprise when I listened to her album titled "In Search of Cleo" and it wasn't your usual actress-gets-a-music-deal sound. From the very first...

Filed under: News , Exclusive , Count Five , New Music , You Oughta Know , Canada When a songwriter records someone else's tune -- effectively making the song their own -- it's the most heartfelt compliment an artist can bestow. That is, providing the new version doesn't suck. To promote his current North American tour, Gentlemen Reg is releasing 'Heavy Head,' a six-song EP featuring b-sides, remixes...

As I have talked about on countless occasions, I usually hate the term "guilty pleasure." For something to be a guilty pleasure requires there to be a component of embarrassment to go along with the enjoyment of the pleasure, and I'm here to tell you, I'm over all that. When it comes to the things I like, love me of leave me, baby, I'm not apologizing. Or am I? Because the other day on my...

The other day we had a “family unit patronize the junk shop. It was of a variety I am seeing more frequently nowadays: an affluent co-ed, her boyfriend, mom and pop. My coworker Cass and I watched in amazement as this foursome spent no less than ten minutes debating the pros and cons of a [...]

Dun Dun DUN!!!! VILLAINY!!!! So the villain of the piece chose as her inspiration the painting Mischief and Repose, by John William Godward. Not pointing it out for any reason other than it goes with this screencap. Because, did you know? Irina is the VILLAIN. Such is the extent of her villainy that when it's combined with the sheer blandness of the rest of this season, it turns out she's not much...

Although you will have heard some of these tracks before, I do not think that Stevie Nicks has ever sung more passionately and her vocals any better than they are on this new album. You can read the review in Riveting Riffs Magazine http://www.rivetingriffs.com/stevie_nicks.htm
