About the Artist
Wit Woo was born. Like being sick from chewing tobacco they set out to make music. 1997/8 saw the band recording their Demo CD at Stepping Stone Recording Studio (Seattle, Wa). They gave the CD's away. The Rocket Magazine had this to say about the Wit Woo's Demo: "Combining the giddy, "who-gives-a-fudge" sense of humor of the Presidents of the United States of America and the searing melodic attack of Husker Du, Wit Woo manage to remind us why we like rock music - infectious choruses, fist-pumping power-chords and gleefully nonsensical lyrics." Wit Woo spent their time playing Seattle/Portland venues while compiling material for a "full album". In November of 1998 Wit Woo recruited Mark Salvadelena (of Seattle's Melody Unit) to record their second CD titled "Enjoy". So in the studio they went and out it popped. Greg Whisenant plays drums and hockey. Jeremy Knapp does the bass and vacuums his case. Chris Jentzsch bats right, throws right and plays guitar. Jeremy sings the most. Fremont (Seattle, WA is where it all started. Their lyrics are from the back of cereal boxes and their music is the maturing sound of innocence. Let these two ingredients bake in a power-pop oven. Cool. Eat. Enjoy.

Amazon.com

One of country's fastest-rising acts, Sugarland arrive at their follow-up to 2004's triple-platinum Twice the Speed of Life in a considerably altered state. Chief songwriter and founding member Kristen Hall is gone, and producer Garth Fundis (Trisha Yearwood) has been usurped in favor of crossover hitmaker Byron Gallimore (Tim McGraw, Faith Hill). One could argue that these are the predictable results of success--by opening for such megastars as Kenny Chesney and Brooks & Dunn, the Atlanta-based trio was forced to retool its organic, singer-songwriter, folk-rock sound to fill arenas. And while their intricate vocal harmonies added a subtle creative dimension to their debut, Enjoy the Ride is made up mostly of songs ("County Line," "Mean Girls") constructed to showcase lead singer Jennifer Nettles's big voice in ways the previous album did not. While the repertoire was written by Nettles and surviving partner Kristian Bush in collaboration with proven songsmiths Bobby Pinson, Lisa Carver, and Tim Owens, much of the wistful intimacy of the first album is now diminished. Furthermore, it seems foolish to now call this act a duo, as Bush receives very little time in the spotlight apart from his vocal harmonies and performance on guitar and mandolin. None of this should matter on the charts, however, since the real focus was always on Nettles, whose twangy, force-field soprano more than carries the day. As before, the lyrics are upbeat and positive--if the message of the first album was of flight and searching, the theme here is of digging in. The winsome Nettles does a fine job of selling it all, positioning herself as the Ambassador of Optimism, the Deep South successor to Jo Dee Messina. --Alanna Nash

Album Description

Sugarland, with the help of producer Byron Gallimore (Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Lee Ann Womack), deliver the same ferocity on Enjoy The Ride. From the catchy coming-of-age kick-off single and chart-topping "Want To," to the reflective rocker "County Line" and the hopelessly optimistic "One Blue Sky," the combination of Jennifer's powerhouse country-soul voice with Kristian's passionate harmonies and deep-rooted musicality hits home, even if these two road veterans, each with a decade of club experience behind them, hardly ever see theirs. "If we can't go home, we do in our minds," Kristian explains of their songwriting process, which on this record, includes collaborations with country artist Bobby Pinson ("Want To"), Brad Paisley's co-writer Tim Owens ("Settlin'"), old pal Jeff Cohen ("April Showers") and Nashville local Lisa Carver ("One Blue Sky," "Everyday America," "County Line," "These Are The Days"). "There's a sense of nostalgia," Jennifer continues. "You pull from the time when you were figuring out who you are as a person. Like in 'Want To,' it's not only a story of falling in love, it's about that moment or a choice that could change your life. And with 'County Line,' it's about a place where you have your first kiss or get in a fight or talk about football and that time when you felt most free."

Annoying voice from an over-rated woman........2007-07-16

Sugarland is one of the worst country bands ever produced. Frontwoman Jennifer Neetles has one of the most cringe worthy voices ever! That stupid song, Everyday America is completely dreadful and that over-played, Settlin' should have never seen the light of day. If you want to listen to bad country/pop music then Enjoy the Ride is just for you, but if you want a great listenable country album then check out Miranda Lambert's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Lambert actually has some talent!

Enjoy the Ride.......2007-07-05

This cd has a few great songs but they seem to blend together by the end of the cd! Not as exciting as I thought...

Nettles is a Legend in the Making.......2007-05-23

In today's cookie-cutter music industry that is full of over-produced and studio-pastuerized songs, it is vital to have a unique tone and style that makes you immediately-identifiable on the radio. At the core, I am a Rock musician, yet I appreciate a variety of music styles when performed and recorded well. Sugarland entered the scene as a "hip" Country act and knocked us (the audience) into a full-on smile! While they have been admirable and impacting as a group, it truly IS Jennifer's voice that is a huge selling point as a member of the band. When she sings, you immediately KNOW that it is HER! Many musicians just DREAM of having a instantly-recognizeable style that people will love! Miss Nettles is THERE! Furthermore, just about ANYTHING Country that she sings is gonna sound great because of her deep Southern accent and her unique vibrato and determined energy. How many OTHER Country artists have had a hit single with Jon Bon Jovi? It is hard to NOT like Jennifer Nettles, unless you don't like Country music AT ALL!! 'Nuff said!!!

Enjoy the Ride by Sugarland.......2007-05-20

I loved the CD. I think Sugarland gets better with ever CD released. Would recommend almost every song on the Cd.

Not settling..........2007-05-08

A great Cd with lots of straight to the heart songs. You won't go wrong with purchasing this cd.

Warren Zevon died in 2003, a year after learning he had an inoperable form of lung cancer. He took that year to wrap up loose ends, recording a moving coda to his up and down collection of albums, while being heralded by legions of admirers. This 14-song tribute to the singer-songwriter, coming out a year after his passing, allows for a cooler assessment of his gifts and, guess what? He was one hell of a songwriter. One part fierce rocker, one part slightly abashed sentimentalist, Zevon's lyrical arsenal included humor, sentiment, menace, and general weirdness, all of which he mixed and matched in wild ways. The early hits "Lawyers, Guns and Money" (done here by the Wallflowers) and "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" (recreated by Jackson Browne and Bonnie Raitt) turn bravado on its ear with witty self-deprecation. Pete Yorn's take on a later gem, "Splendid Isolation," captures Zevon's gift for leftfield pathos, while Jill Sobule's whispered "Don't Let Us Get Sick" allows one to bask in Zevon's hardboiled sensitivity; he wanted to allow his spirit to show, but he didn't want to get stupid about it. This compilation from his last record label was co-produced by Zevon's son, Jordan (who performs a previously unheard number, "Studabaker") and longtime cohort Jorge Calderon (who movingly recreates Zevon's so-long song, "Keep Me in Your Heart"). The duo bring together the likes of Bob Dylan, the Pixies, Steve Earle, and Bruce Springsteen to tip their hats to an artist who's songs deserve to live on for decades after his death. --Steven Stolder

Never follow an act that's better than yours........2007-06-17

A long time ago I learned this lesson the hard way (a story not worth the telling, btw). This isn't to suggest that the artists on this tribute album aren't as good as Warren Zevon; that's hardly the case and it's not the point. It's that some of the performances add nothing that Zevon hadn't already nailed. A lot of style gets applied, which is sufficient for covering a lot of other artists' material. But if you're going to cover a Warren Zevon song, you'd better have something real to bring to the table.

Happily, there are several good performances here, and even the few that should have been quickly euthanized seem to be products of simple vanity, here rendered sweet and forgiveable by purity of motive. It seems clear that these acts all share a genuine fondness for Warren and/or the songs themselves. Still, it perplexes me that some people who can appreciate music of such rare quality and intelligence can be so blind to their own inability to add anything to it.

Best of the bunch: "Studebaker" - Jordan Zevon (sounds like he learned to sing listening to his dad and Jackson Browne); "Searching for a Heart" - Don Henley; "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" - Jackson Browne/Bonnie Raitt/Waddy Wachtel.

Not sure what they were thinking: "The Wind" - Billy Bob Thornton (I could understand the "Sling Blade" guy better than this vocal); the Wallflowers - not bad I guess, but they make a good argument that Warren spoiled "Lawyers, Guns and Money" for everyone else and it should never again be attempted by anyone; the Pixies - you can't out-Zevon Zevon in a Zevon song, where his attitude will always be badder than yours.

So it's not necessarily that Warren Zevon is a hard act to follow. It's that his songs are a hard act to follow. If you're going to cover one, leave your stylings at home and bring your cojones instead.

Anyway, I definitely recommend the record. A lot of the material is worthwhile, and even with the stuff that isn't so good, the songwriting itself still manages to shine through.

a great CD.......2007-03-10

This is a fantastic CD. There are at least 5 songs on this album that I treasure, several of which I hadn't heard in either the original or the covered version. Having lost a parent recently, the nature of the tribute also struck a personal chord. Highly recommended.

Wonderful and Meaningful Songs.......2007-01-06

What usually happens is that the first rendition one listens and grows with is the one he loves best. For me it worked otherwise. Contrary to what another reviewer said, Zevon's interpretations of his own songs did not grab me. Ok, I was curious to see what he is about only because Dylan had expressed his admiration for him. And incidentally the inclusion in this cd of a Dylan interpretation was the reason I bought it. Yet the covers 'grabed' me indeed. Arguably the songs are nice, mostly expressing a solitary mood which suits me at this period of time. Moreover there is a uniform style in all the interpretations, so although there are some songs I like best I don't use this record to listen just to them but I go through it from start till end. Now, do they really bring out anything new or anything better? Not being I real Warren Zevon fan I cannot have an opinion, yet the fact remains that this cd is more enjoyable to me than his greatest hits.

Better than expected.......2007-01-03

This is a nice collection for die hard fans and for people new to his music. It's a good blend of famous and obscure Zevon songs. "My Ride's Here" by Bruce Springsteen is worth the price alone.

hit and miss.......2006-12-16

The songs are great, but if you are in the market for this disk you already know that. So how about the interpretations and performances? Well, with a few exceptions the performances are fine. But something about the interpretations didn't really grab me.

There were a few cuts on this disk that were just outstanding and a few that just didn't really work for me. But for most of them I just wondered what the point was. They didn't really bring out anything new, and certainly didn't bring out anything better.

I guess this is what happens with most tribute anthologies, but I had hoped for something different. For what it's worth, I think my favorite cuts are those by Springsteen and Zevon (the younger).

Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

A treasure of the musical world........2007-04-14

I was first introduced to Miss Russell in 1980 by fellow musicians in Rochester NY. We spent late nights after rehearsals secretly listening and laughing ourselves sick. She had the ability to put us and our conductor in our places and made us like it! Miss Russell clearly understood opera, live concert events, touring and all aspects of the music of the world. Parts of this album were recorded in New York City USA and parts in Johannesburg South Africa. It makes no difference where the audience is, the language and experience is universal and we all laugh together. Undressed bagpipes, ears turning into gardenias, the lament for the fat ladies, and "Jolly Old Sigmund Freud" presented in the singular voice of a "ruined opera singer" are irresistible.

The best comment about this album came from my seventeen year old son. Just last year (2006) I finally got a CD copy of this priceless work of art and shared it with him. He listened totally enthralled. The selection "Hamletto, or Prosciuttino (sung in simultaneous Italian and English0" caused him to comment, "Well, now I know what Hamlet is about." He since asked me to get the others and has loved them as well. "Backwards With the Folk Song" brought back memories of Voice Lessons and dreary concerts that now can be enjoyed safely from a distance. Today's indie and emo musicians could do well to listen and learn.

I would recommend Miss Russell's work for any teenaged class, they seem to adore her sly wit. Besides, all the French Horn players in the High School band need a little teasing from time to time.

A classic above all classics.......2000-03-17

From the velvet-voiced music reviewer herself, Anna Russell has laid many a sour note. This in itself, is what makes her so funny. She takes greater pains to sound bad as most other singers do to sound good. And the best thing about this, and all of her recordings in general is that you will never tire of them, no matter how much you play them... From those before her or after her in the musica funnia farma (P.D.Q. Bach, Victor Borge, Florence Foster Jenkins, etc.), it is in this venue of music appreciation (or as some say, depreciation), that will bring newer fans to the classical arena...

Funny and scathingly true.......1999-10-29

Highly recomended listening for the serious classical music enthusiast who enjoys a good laugh!

Hilarious - move over Victor Borge & Beatrice Lily.......1999-03-15

Anyone who loves classical music, Victor Borge, Flanders & Swann , Beatrice Lily, or PDQ Bach will love this album, play it over and over, and quote her to friends.
