Ring Tones - Yeh Dil Maange More

The words in the Pepsi advertisement jingle compiled for the Indian audience, literally translating to “the heart wants more” and most everyone’s craze for new and varied ring tones are a perfect match. With the number of cell phone connections sky rocketing in India and the rest of the world, this is one craze that has very little chance of ebbing away. Not that I am one to complain, especially if the tune is one of Kishore Kumar’s evergreen melodies! But I’d draw the line at some of the more bizarre tunes or so called tunes, like a baby crying or the sound of a ‘fart’ that some individuals insist on assaulting our eardrums with.

Keeping Jackson Alive In Our Hearts

The King of Pop is more popular now than ever and with that there are a lot of new release CDs coming out onto the market of his hits from the long and ago and some of his more recent works. The best compilation of his works that I have experienced thus far is the Michael Jackson Ultimate Collection CD Set. This incredible 5 disc boxed set has been available for a while, but truly covers the best music of Michael Jackson’s career.

Madame Butterfly, the Betrayal: A Review of the Opera

Madame Butterfly is an opera written by Giacomo Puccini which is very popular. We strongly recommend opera glasses for this breathtaking opera. The reasons why are about to be shown to you.

The Boss: Say No More

For thirty years the Boss has been crafting heat-felt, powerful rock and roll? The man is more than New Jersey’s favorite son — he is a worldwide icon, a beacon of integrity and musicality. What is best of America Bruce embodies and that is evident to anyone who has ever seen him play his heart out live. To be in his presence as he cries out for the underdog in “Born to Run” or “Born In The USA” is to know, even for an instance, the soul of the American working class.

Frank Sinatra And Nelson Riddle: How It Happened

When considering the greatness of Frank Sinatra–both as an individual and in the music he created–it is important to place his achievements within the context of the man’s life. It is easy to forget that there was a time when he wasn’t ‘The Chairman of the Board’ and when he wasn’t regarded as the greatest male popular vocalist in history. There was a time when he was just another washed up teen idol trying to figure out a way to jump start his career and continue collecting a paycheck for being a singer. And then there were his personal problems–the love of his life, Ava Gardner had left him, his vocal chords were shredded from overuse, and he was on the skids financially as well as no longer in demand professionally. Frank recalled this time in his life by saying “It was all Mondays.”

The Chairman Of The Board Meets Brazil’s Bossa Nova Pioneer

One of the frequently heard criticisms of Frank Sinatras work is that he was essentially a one trick pony. He is often accused of not being a technically adept vocalist, and simply reworking a formula over and over again. While Sinatra certainly knew what worked for him, and what kind of songs and arrangements he liked this assertion is patently unfair and displays a profound ignorance of the entire body of his work. If you dig deeper in the Sinatra oeuvre, youll find some amazing examples of vocal prowess. Perhaps his best work in this regard came from his collaboration with legendary Brazilian guitarist Antonio Carlos Jobim.

Are Mp3 Files Compatible With The IPod?

MP3 files are easily the most popular form of audio storage found on the internet. The fact that the music is compressed to a small size for easy storage without losing any of the sound quality makes these files very desirable. The MP3 files are compatible with most operating systems available today as well as with many other devices used for listening to music. The MP3 files are easily transferred to other devices such as your cell phone, a CD, or even your IPod.

The Black Eyed Peas Are No Where Near “The E.N.D.” Of Their Career

The Black Eyed Peas just released their latest, fifth album to mixed reviews, perhaps because some fans have now gotten away from the music of the BEP’s and perhaps because they have gotten to listen to Fergie on her own, a few people were disappointed in this album, however it must be said that this seems to be some of their best collaborative work to date.

Guitar Instructional DVD: Begin Your Career Today

Like you probably have done, I have read a ton of interviews with great players and articles written by many of these same players. I often found it frustrating whenever the subject of learning to play guitar came up or when advice was offered on improving one’s playing. With a small number of exceptions, very little time and space was offered on this.
