Music

We have three new (music) albums.
The first is "Dancing Through the Chakras" an Aussie production, not quite what I was expecting. I thought it would just be music but we have an Aussie lass coaching before each chakra. Actually it's very good. We start with the "tribal rhythms of the earthy base chakra" all the way up to the crown. So instead of the usual slow begining and wild end we start with lots of energy and slowly, slowly relax. Very nice.
Number two is Jay-Z (rapper not dancer). I really like him and I think one day he and Beyonce will be a chubby couple who compliment each other. It's a great album, I don't care for his over use of what we honkies refer to as "the N word" but aside from that it has some really great tracks. I love good rap, Emem, Kanye (how do you spell these names?) as opposed to those wannabees who think if it rhymes it must be rap.
Last but of course, not least, Gorillaz - Plastic Beach. Wow. It doesn't fail my expectations. Featuring among many others another big favourite rapper - Snoop Dog. If there's such a phrase as cohesive randomness it would describe this album. It's different but the same, the favourite, recognisable sounds in a whole new way. Five stars.
Talking of stars, I really must buy a Prime Circle album, they surely are the best to come out of South Africa, but, lest you think that doesn't mean much, please think on the amazing talent this country has to offer. Their cover of Careless Whisper must have George crying into his cornflakes and their original stuff, outstanding.
Play on.
