  • Nobody believed [Madonna] would last. No story about her ever neglects to mention that fact, the improbability of her success, the enthralling triumph of complete mediocrity. In my house, we maintain a secret archive of magazines on which Madonna appeared on the cover. It's remarkable how many of them feature a headline to the effect of "the New Madonna" and "Madonna's New Look" and "Madonna Now. [Wexler] helped boost the careers of both the "King of Soul," [Charles, Pickett], and the "Queen of Soul," Franklin. Wilson Pickett, Solomon Burke and Percy Sledge were among the other R&B greats who benefited from Wexler's deft recording touch. He also produced Dusty Springfield's classic Dusty in Memphis, considered a masterpiece of "blue-eyed" soul. I just kept saying, 'This is too ......

  • Janis Ian's At Seventeen is a perfect fit -- a song that sounds like it came from [JANN ARDEN]'s own heartbroken oeuvre -- but California Dreamin' gives new meaning to the term "inessential. In the liner notes, Arden says she doesn't usually dabble in R&B, because "I try not to mess with the experts," so the very idea of her attempting to do Dusty Springfield causes a twinge of embarrassment, but she pulls it off nicely, giving her usually smooth voice a gutsy soul edge. Her rueful delivery turns Pat Benatar's Love is a Battlefield from a battle cry into a lament, revealing the hurt under the familiar lyrics to which you might never have given a second thought. HHH A tribute to pianist Tommy Flanagan and the calypso Park Palace Parade, both [SONNY ROLLINS]' compositions, are stando...

  • DAVID O'Meara lives in Ottawa, where he tends bar," reads the author biography in O'Meara's third book, Noble Gas, Penny Black (Brick, 70 pages, $18). Since author bios often include laundry lists of obscure literary awards, brevity is a relief. As you'd hope for in a book about a musician, [Jeanette Lynes] has a musical sense herself: "A record is a palimpsest, an incest/ of sound" or "Another room: The Goon Show blarking away./ Her brother mangling his guitar upstairs. [Margaret Christakos]' work is often very funny in using the language of the lyric against itself: "The way to San Jose is aquiver/ with few and fewer friends", or "Mauve hydrangea heads nodded off in front of my laptop/ with the pallor of popped vivacity."

  • It's Chris Robinson's beat-dog howl, snippy whinnying and hippie-ish cheer guiding tunes sadly ruminative (Oh Josephine) and sunshiny (Evergreen) through their dustiest paces that makes Warpaint battered. It's just like the difference between an old leather jacket and a new "distressed" one. You can't fake beat. ÔÇ´ÔÇ´ÔÇ´ DMBQ is the former Murley/Braid Quartet with saxophonist [Tara Davidson] sharing performing duties with [Mike Murley] and writing duties with Murley and pianist Braid. Davidson so impressed the other two as a guest on their 2006 tour (when this recording was made in Vancouver) they asked her to co-lead and continue the cerebral composing and interplay for which they have become known. Davidson blends easily into the band, holding her own with her former teacher Murley,...

  • I don't know whether that really speaks to men being a little bit kind of over-passionate in terms of how they react to the opposite sex, or women being a little bit more cautious in terms of how they respond, but one way or another there's about an eight-point difference between men and women," [Harris-Decima] president Bruce Anderson said Wednesday. "In that aspect, it's not entirely surprising," he said from Whistler, B.C. "Men, as much as I hate to say it, it's almost in some aspects lust at first sight.
