Trama: Frank Zappa's first solo album, Hot Rats is a far-cry from the da-da adventures and audio collages of the original Mothers of Invention. Mostly instrumental and filled with long jams between Zappa, Jean-Luc Ponty and Ian Underwood, this slickly-produced album--one of the first 16 track recordings made--is filled with hummable tunes. The opening track, "Peaches en Regalia," is one of Zappa's most enduring songs and the album's only vocal track, "Willie the Pimp," is by Zappa's long-time friend Don Van Vliet, a.k.a. Captain Beefheart. --Andrew Boscardin

Trama: This 2nd CD from Marcelo shows how quickly he is maturing his brazilian roots into a robust collection of harmonies. Looking forward to his next one.

Trama: ..but it's still worth having if you're a Zevon fanatic like me. Sure, some of the lyrics seem a little dated ("Networking" reminds me of the days when an Apple IIe was considered top of the line), and the title track could have been part of a bad 80s action movie soundtrack. But the themes dealing with compulsive shopping ("Down in the Mall"), environmental pollution ("Run Straight Down"), and population problems ("Gridlock") are just as relevant today as when the album was released. The music is a fine example of Warren's writing sense and skewed perspective. And even though three tracks have been included in the Zevon anthology, it's still worth buying at least a cheap used copy for one of his all-time greatest songs: "Nobody's in Love This Year." Simply perfect.

Trama: Warren Zevon is a lost American Treasure. Like John Prine and maybe Randy Newman, he understood that songs could also stand as separate literary structures. But since "Genius" contains his post Elektra/Asylum output and the uncensored version of "Lawyers Guns and Money" (the you-know-what does not hit the fan on "AQNL"), "Genius" is the better buy. Of course, if you're feeling adventurous and have a few extra bucks, you should spring for "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead.""Genius" does trade off "AQNL's" "Ain't That Pretty at All" and the title track to the brilliant "The Envoy." Maybe someday that album and the live "Stand In The Fire" will make it to CD....

Trama: I dont know where they found this joker. This music is simply not good. Its like smooth jazz with this guy singing along to these ridiculously simple song structures that simply are repetitive and don't sound good. This music goes absolutly no where and it is very boring. A lot of this guys music is [borrowed] too. Also their is a song called Donkey Tonkey on here which really made me want to [hit] this guy, its like a kids anthem "Do the Donkey, the Donkey Tonkey" ...

Trama: don't buy this album as the first one of Zucchero, take BlueSugar - a great album that will blow you away, incredible songs. This album here is a bit harder to understand, Zucchero is an italina r&b hero - great songwriter. Listen to the music, you will enjoy it!!!
