"Wishful Thinking" by Orla Murphy (Jazz Artist from London, England)

Orla Murphy's debut Jazz album goes by the name of "Wishful Thinking." This is an album that features Murphy's creamy smooth voice with mostly 3 piece accompaniments, playing a collection of mellow Jazz standards as well as Jazz-interpretations of well known songs. In the song, "Fragile" Murphy sings alongside an acoustic guitar in a relaxed and simple, yet deep and emotional sentiment. In "The Old Country" her voice interplays solely with the upright bass and drums in a smooth yet peppy Jazz number. In the track, "Be Cool" Murphy sings with a remarkable cadence in a playful and toe-tapping piece. This album is one that features classic Jazz and a highly talented voice and lets the talents of the musicians flow with style and grace. If you are a fan of simple and velvety Jazz, or maybe just want something mellow and comforting to listen to around the fireplace, then you should hear the album "Wishful Thinking" by Orla Murphy.

"Batida Diferente" by Norberto Goldberg (Latin/Jazz Artist from New York City, New York(NY))

"Batida Diferente" is an extremely well made Brazilian/Latin Jazz album by drummer Norberto Goldberg and his fellow talented musicians. Some of the best tracks on this album are in fact original compositions. For instance, the fast-paced and fun "Baiao" is well crafted with moving drum beats that compliment the melodic melody of the guitar and sax. The title track "Batida Diferente" pulls off some expert tempo changes with ease, showing off the talent of all the players. The album, "Batida Diferente," isn't just for fans of Latin Jazz or dance clubs; it's for all listeners who can appreciate outstanding music played with expert musicianship.

"Balumba Tombo revolution" by Various Artists (Pop Artist from Italy)

New from Italy's Pedale Baroque, "Balumba Tombo revolution" is another eclectic compilation of Pop and World Music artists and songs reflecting the wide-open scope of the unique project that produced '07's "Balumba Tombo reloaded." From the psych-inspired "Sea Child" by Danger, to the East-meets-West hybrid sound of Gandhi Goes to Bollywood's "Welcome to Legoland," the diversity of the 10 tracks blend perfectly to create a borderless pastiche of pure musicality. "Requiematic" by Maestro Poldo Catara dabbles in classical nuances, while CD-opener, "Distraction physique" by Bohemian Flambe, is straight-ahead rock with a decided French influence. Elsewhere, Frograssa's weird and unsettling "Frogs in frocks" and the ultra-'80's feel of Leonid Sdjalayev' "Eto niemoi film?" push the boundaries without sounding uncharacteristic or out of place. A CD for the musically adventurous, the "Balumba Tombo revolution" compilation is a provocative mix of styles and influences that will leave you wanting more from the compelling and innovative Pedale Baroque collective.

"Me and Mrs. Jones" by Tony Ocean (Easy Listening Artist from Illinois(IL))

Tony Ocean doles out skill and passion with his new CD, "Me and Mrs. Jones." While his cover of the Billy Paul classic is well done and worthy of being a title track, the Robbie Robertson-penned "Out of the Blue" provides Ocean with the perfect canvas for the kind of deep and soulful delivery the song demands. This album stays nothing but smooth throughout, but still holds some edge and emotion with Ocean's strong vocals. "Someone Like You" has all the elements this album is about: passion, beautiful piano, and catchy melodies. Another gem is the last track, "Be Honest," a duet with a female singer. Tony Ocean's fine CD, "Me and Mrs. Jones," is easy listening anyone can enjoy.

"12 Meditations On Love" by Jeri Hilderley (Folk Artist from New York City, New York(NY))

Jeri Hilderley's newest release is "12 Meditations On Love." This album is a collection of avant-garde songs that revolve around Jeri's almost operatic voice; which are meant as a celebration of nature's gifts, love, and the positive sides of life in general. "Blue Hydrangea" is a song in which Jeri sings energetically over mellow guitar picking, in a song inspired by the beauty of a flower. "Gay Beach in P-Town" is more of a playful song, in which a duet of voices sings carefully over xylophone playing in remembrance of good times at a gay beach. "Company of Two" is a song in which Jeri sings over a guitar and occasional cello in a song inspired by the possibilities of love between two people. This album is one that is made in dedication of the wonderful and mysterious quagmire that is love. If you enjoy calm, operatic singing, and love-inspired music then "12 Meditations On Love" is an album you would enjoy hearing.

"Tesla's Christmas" by Richard Souther (Holiday Artist from New York(NY))

Richard Souther's latest holiday album is called "Tesla's Christmas." It is, quite simply, an album which fuses modern electronic sounds with those of antiquated instruments to recreate Christmas carols. For "Go Tell It on the Mountain" a computerized sounding drum beat is combined with synthesizer and hand bells to create a beautiful yet different rendition of this well known holiday number. "Coventry Carol" is a carol that sounds like it was created by Radiohead, as it is a synthesized and somewhat trippy track, yet still retains the true feel of a holiday song. "O Tannenbaum" is beautifully replicated using ethereal background sounds with what sounds like pleasant wooden-xylophone playing. This album is perfect for those who appreciate both Christmas carols as well as when people combine and use new musical methods within well known songs. If you are already a fan of music such as that by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra then Richard Souther's "Tesla's Christmas" is undoubtedly an album for you.
