Comme Si de Rien N'Etait
:Album Description:14-track CD album - Carla Bruni has always had a certain poetry. A definite je ne sai quoi. The grace, style & beauty of this Italian-born, France-raised thirty-something is legendary; her intellect & vitality striking, even formidable. Now as the first lady of France, Carla Bruni is one of the most photographed women of the world but she doesn't want this to affect people's perception of her or her music. She wants the music to speak for itself and here it does.

Sparks of Ancient Light
:Album Description:Magical history tours have been Al Stewart's trademark since the early 1970s, when he switched from writing about his own romantic turmoil to a wider view of the world and its rich cast of characters and events. While his 1976 international hit single, 'Year of the Cat,' was tied to no specific time, the albums surrounding it combined finely drawn character studies and detailed settings that ranged across continents and centuries, forming the template of history mixed with mystery for Al's subsequent recordings. Everything ...

The Hawk Is Howling
: :Mogwai's sixth album continues to showcase the fiercely layered guitars and dynamics of their classic work, and features a new array of rhythms and melodies.

Hey Ma
: :It s the 2008 reunion album from Tim Booth and the rest of the James gang.

Their UK success crossed over into the U.S. a few years later and the band were finally able to reap their just rewards. Now with Andy Diagram back in the band in addition to the Laid six of ...
