TWENTY FOUR SEVEN by TINA TURNER

TinaTurner

TWENTY FOUR SEVEN • TINA TURNER / CD / 2000 Tina Turner's first album of the 21st century continues in the vein of the sophisticated-sounding, adult-contemporary pop that she's been churning out since her fabled comeback from obscurity. Much like her last album, WILDEST DREAMS, Turner borrows nuances from Bristol natives and trip-hop specialists Massive Attack. Unlike DREAMS, Turner's choice of material here successfully leans toward the more obscure side. Helping her achieve this more contemporary approach is Spice Girls collaborator Absolute, whose production contributions include the infectiously airy "All the Woman" and the polite funkiness of "Without You," featuring a cameo by Bryan Adams. Elsewhere, Metro (the London team behind Cher's BELIEVE) inject a chiming guitar, squeaky-clean loops, and an ethereal sound to the female empowerment single "When the Heartache Is Over." Still a force to reckon with at the brink of 60, the former Anna Mae Bullock range hasn't faltered at all.

THE BEACH • SOUNDTRACK

BeachST

THE BEACH • SOUNDTRACK / CD / 1999 With THE BEACH soundtrack, Danny Boyle and Andrew MacDonald, the film's director and producer, continue their trend of exploring cutting-edge electronic and dance music (a pattern established with their films SHALLOW GRAVE, TRAINSPOTTING, and A LIFE LESS ORDINARY). With the help of DJ extraodinaire Pete Tong, they've assembled another impressive collection, this one tilted more exclusively toward the electronic. There is no filler here. Underworld contributes the steady roll and cheerfully hypnotic beat of "8 Ball," which easily stands with the best of their work. The production work and songwriting of William Orbit greatly improves the dance-lite grooves of All Saints, giving their "Pure Shores" a gorgeous, spectacularly spacious sound that nicely offsets the vocals.

Bloodflowers • The Cure / CD / 2000 The Cure: Robert Smith (vocals, guitar, keyboards, 6-string bass); Perry Bamonte (guitar, 6-string bass); Roger O'Donnell (keyboards); Simon Gallup (bass); Jason Cooper (drums, percussion). Recorded at St. Catherine's Court, Avon, and Rak Studio 3, London, England. With BLOODFLOWERS, Robert Smith and the boys give sway to the most shoegazery elements of their eternally languid arsenal to often stunning effect. Evoking memories of similar classics such as PORNOGRAPHY and DISINTEGRATION, the Cure's first effort of the 21st century simmers with serene seamless disorder as Smith lays his usual mixture of lyrical sorrow and delight upon a bed of ambient landscapes.

Telling Stories • Tracy Chapman / CD / 2000

Telling Stories • Tracy Chapman / CD / 2000 There's nothing particularly fancy about Tracy Chapman's particular brand of folk-rock; she just blends the folk into the rock more appealingly than most anyone out there. Her music has enough verve to have vaulted her out of obscurity twice. Her fifth jaunt, TELLING STORIES, continues her charming consistency with an alluring set of picture-perfect tunes. The bouncy title track opens the album with a clever circular play on a deceptively simple line, "there's a fiction in the space between...," which makes it clear from the start that Tracy remembers the value of a good pop song. Good pop songs abound on TELLING STORIES, from the country-rock of "Less Than Strangers" to the singer-songwriter folk of "Unsung Psalm" to the upbeat dance of "It's OK." Between her acclaimed debut and TELLING STORIES, very little about Chapman has changed, which is both comforting and good, the world needs good, well-meaning folk-pop songwriters and good, well-meaning folk-pop songs.
