Photographer: Olaf Heine. Arrangers: Klaus Derendorf; Eric Mouquet; Jeremy Lubbock; Mark Hammond; Mark Portmann; Paul Schwartz ; William Ross; David Foster; Walter Afanasieff. Powerhouse vocalist Josh Groban may not be all things to all people, but he's certainly many things to many people. An international sensation, Groban is a Broadway-ready belter, romantic crooner, and classical/pop crossover phenomenon. Groban largely shies away from the more operatic side of his musical personality on CLOSER, leaning more towards a lush, cosmopolitan style that finds him singing in Italian, French, Spanish, and English with equal aplomb. While the album is speckled with adult-contemporary pop production touches courtesy of Groban's mentor David Foster, much of the record sports a cinematic, grandly orchestrated feel. And on the closing track "Never Let Go," his collaboration with ambient popsters Deep Forest, Groban even bucks for inclusion on a future volume of the PURE MOODS series, showing that he's always got another stylistic surprise up his sleeve.

Definitive Hits by Herb Alpert (CD - 03/27/2001)
"Definitive Hits" (03/27/2001) Easy Listening Alpert, Herb, Interscope Records (USA)Personnel includes: Herb Alpert (trumpet); Janet Jackson, Lisa Keith (vocals); Tijuana Brass. Producers include: Herb Alpert, Jerry Moss, Burt Bacharach, Jose Quintana, Randy Badazz. Compilation producers: Herb Alpert, Larry Levine, Mike Ragogna. Includes liner notes by Herb Alpert and Quincy Jones. Digitally remastered using 20-bit remastering technology by Doug Sax and Robert Hadley (The Mastering Lab, Los Angeles, California). Personnel: Herb Alpert (trumpet); Lisa Keith (vocals). Audio Remixers: Don Hahn; Bryan Stott. Liner Note Authors: Quincy Jones; Burt Bacharach. Arrangers: Herb Alpert; Juan Carlos Calder¢n. Before his run at the top of the easy-listening charts, Herb Alpert was already a music-industry veteran, writing and producing hits for Sam Cooke and Jan & Dean. Alpert also deserves a place in history as co-founder and owner of A&M Records, one of the most successful independent labels of all time. A solid 20-track compilation spanning Alpert's career, DEFINITIVE HITS covers the trumpeter/singer/label executive's glory years--the 1961-'68 stretch between "The Lonely Bull" and the Burt Bacharach-penned vocal showcase "This Guy's in Love with You." However, it also conveniently gathers material from the post-Tijuana Brass period when Alpert specialized in easy-listening fusion hits like the disco-tinged jazz-funk of 1979's "Rise" and the adult-contemporary R&B of 1987's "Diamonds," which features A&M Records' then-new star Janet Jackson on lead vocals. But, of course, the real meat of the collection is the brilliantly arranged suburban exotica of "Spanish Flea," "A Taste of Honey," and "Whipped Cream," along with other fine examples of Alpert's Latin-tinged pop.

Romantic Saxophone: Late Night Sax by Various Artists (CD - 03/05/2002)
"Romantic Saxophone: Late Night Sax" (03/05/2002) Easy Listening Various Artists, Columbia River Entertainment GroupThis installment of the Romantic Saxophone series is populated with dreamy, instrumental arrangements of memorable pop hits like "From a Distance," "Up Where We Belong," and "The Greatest Love of All." It's unclear what makes these particular renditions very romantic or better for late nights. Truth in advertising aside, the sax leads are pretty solid throughout, even if most of the tracks threaten to be overwhelmed by synthesized horn and percussion backing tracks. ~ Johnny Loftus

Beyond the Sea/The New Limelight [Digipak] by Frank Chacksfield (CD - 07/20/2004)
"Beyond the Sea/The New Limelight [Digipak]" (07/20/2004) Easy Listening Chacksfield, Frank, Decca (USA)2 LPs on 1 CD: BEYOND THE SEA (1965)/THE NEW LIMELIGHT (1965). This Decca Phase 4 two-fer revives a pair of out of print LPs by English bandleader, pianist, and composer Frank Chacksfield, Beyond the Sea and The New Limelight, released in 1964 and 1965, respectively. Both albums contain romantic mood music with the first 11 tracks dominated by an ocean theme, including "How Deep Is the Ocean," "Sea Mist," "The Sea," "Moon River," and "Ebb Tide," while the remaining tracks focus on show tunes and standards like "Tonight," "Come Rain or Come Shine," "The Man That Got Away," and "Limelight." This is an enjoyable reissue from Frank Chacksfield's out of print catalog on Decca Records. ~ Al Campbell

On their 15th go at '70s song archaeology, Rhino dishes up the decade's kaleidoscopic music menu in all its intriguing and over-the-top glory. Tapping the 1975-1976 period, the 12 cuts take in indelible novelties (C.W. McCall's 18-wheeler hit "Convoy"), '50s nostalgia (Pete Wingfield's "18 With a Bullett"), Defranco Family-issue kitsch (David Geddes' "Run Joey Run"), and glam pop (Bay City Rollers' "Saturday Night"). There's also plenty of soul and funk variants, like Jigsaw's disco symphonic "Sky High," Joe Frank Hamilton's blue-eyed "Fallin' in Love," and Hot Chocolate's dancefloor-filling "Sexy Thing." The maturation of the singer/songwriter is also essayed (Janis Ian's still-solid "Seventeen"), while a country tearjerker finds its crossover legs (Jessi Colter's "I'm Not Lisa"). A few duds, a few gems, and a fair share of songs you will not need to hear a third time around. ~ Stephen Cook One reason that a lot of rock & roll fans hated the '70s was the lightheartedness that came to characterize radio -- basically, radio became fun, and it was rough, if you were an Allman Brothers fan or a devotee of almost any harder rock sounds, to tolerate a lot of the lighter sounds that filled the airwaves. Volume eight of this series shows just how confusing it could be flipping the dial in the summer of 1972; hard rockers like Jo Jo Gunne (an offshoot of Spirit) and their "Run Run Run," country/rockabilly band Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen and "Hot Rod Lincoln," Sailcat's "Motorcycle Mama," and Python Lee Jackson's "In a Broken Dream" (featuring Rod Stewart on the vocals) are here, interspersed with Gallery's relentlessly upbeat "Nice to Be With You," Cleo Laine's performance of the pop-devotional "Day By Day" from Godspell, the downright strange "How Do You Do?" by the Dutch duo Mouth & MacNeal, and the Addrisi Brothers' blue-eyed soul hit "We've Got to Get It on Again." The latter, for the singing/composing duo, was one of a pair of early-'70s triumphs, the other being the 5th Dimension's rendition of their "Never My Love." The whole disc is cheerfully schizophrenic with a few interesting and bizarre moments amid the one-shot wonders; the single edit of Argent's "Hold Your Head Up" has retained its power across the decades and was among the few self-consciously heavy-sounding records to scale the charts in those days. And then there's "Sylvia's Mother" by Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. Among the tracks here, the latter, an over-the-top country-pop-flavored satire, was, along with "Alone Again (Naturally)" by Gilbert O'Sullivan and the Gallery cut, probably responsible for giving AM radio the bad name it got. They do sound very good here, however, and they are fun (as it most anything intended that way by professionals) in moderation. ~ Bruce Eder For their 12th go at '70s hits and kitsch, Rhino delivers a beefy selection of indelible radio fare to prove just how strange and wide-open that decade's music was. From the MOR pop end of things, smashes like Terry Jacks' "Season

Let's Dance: The Best of Ballroom Foxtrots & Waltzes by Various Artists (CD - 11/11/1997)
"Let's Dance: The Best of Ballroom Foxtrots & Waltzes" (11/11/1997) Easy Listening Various Artists, Rhino Records (USA)Full title: Let's Dance! The Best Of Ballroom: Fox Trots And Waltzes. Let's Dance: The Best of Ballroom Foxtrots & Waltzes was designed to cash in on the swing and lounge revival of the '90s by offering a selection of foxtrots and waltzes, along with a choreography and beats-per-minute-guide, designed for hip young swingers. Despite a few selections that are a little too slick or schmaltzy, the music on the collection is generally first-rate, offering eight foxtrots and seven waltzes. The featured artists -- including Andy Williams, Harry James, the Manhattan Transfer, Mel Torm?, Percy Faith, 101 Strings, Melissa Manchester, Engelbert Humperdinck and Henry Mancini -- are uniformly strong, but what really matters is the rhythm, sway and the music, and on that level, Let's Dance: The Best of Ballroom Foxtrots & Waltzes fulfills its purpose quite well. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
