The Beatles - Rubber Soul (2009)


While the Beatles still largely stuck to love songs on Rubber Soul, the lyrics represented a quantum leap in terms of thoughtfulness, maturity, and complex ambiguities. Musically, too, it was a substantial leap forward, with intricate folk-rock arrangements that reflected the increasing influence of Dylan and the Byrds. The group and George Martin were also beginning to expand the conventional instrumental parameters of the rock group, using a sitar on "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)," Greek like guitar lines on "Michelle" and "Girl," fuzz bass on "Think for Yourself," and a piano made to sound like a harpsichord on the instrumental break of "In My Life." While John and Paul were beginning to carve separate songwriting identities at this point, the album is full of great tunes, from "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)" and "Michelle" to "Girl," "I'm Looking Through You," "You Won't See Me," "Drive My Car," and "Nowhere Man" (the last of which was the first Beatle song to move beyond romantic themes entirely). George Harrison was also developing into a fine songwriter with his two contributions, "Think for Yourself" and the Byrds-ish "If I Needed Someone."

The Beatles - Help! (2009)


Considering that Help! functions as the Beatles' fifth album and as the soundtrack to their second film, while filming, they continued to release non LP singles on a regular basis, it's not entirely surprising that it still has some of the weariness of Beatles for Sale. Again, they pad the album with covers, but the Bakersfield bounce of "Act Naturally" adds new flavor (along with an ideal showcase for Ringo amiable vocals) and "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" gives John an opportunity to flex his rock & roll muscle. George is writing again and if his two contributions don't touch Lennon and McCartney originals, they hold their own against much of their British pop peers. Since Lennon wrote a third more songs than McCartney, it's easy to forgive a pair of minor numbers ("It's Only Love," "Tell Me What You See"), especially since they're overshadowed by four great songs. His Dylan infatuation holds strong, particularly on the plaintive "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" and the title track, where the brash arrangement disguises Lennon desperation. Driven by an indelible 12 string guitar, "Ticket to Ride" is another masterpiece and "You're Going to Lose That Girl" is the kind of song McCartney effortlessly tosses off, which he does with the jaunty "The Night Before" and "Another Girl," two very fine tunes that simply update his melodic signature. He did much better with "I've Just Seen a Face," an irresistible folk-rock gem, and "Yesterday," a simple, beautiful ballad whose arrangement, an acoustic guitar supported by a string quartet, and composition suggested much more sophisticated and adventurous musical territory, which the group immediately began exploring with Rubber Soul.

Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of AC/DC (2008)


Amazingly enough, AC/DC songs actually do make very pretty lullabies when done up on Mellotron and bells with all the rough edges soothed away, but there's something decidedly sinister about sending one's child to sleep listening to "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" or "Highway to Hell," no matter how lovely they might sound after being put through the sanitizing blender. AC/DC proudly proclaimed that "Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution." These versions, so perversely sweet, just might be.

Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of No Doubt (2007)


The Rockabye Baby series of CD's takes the songs of popular artists across all genres and rearranges the tunes as lullabies. Keyboard approximations of celeste, vibraphone, chimes and other suitably dreamy instruments replace the original instrumentation, lending each song a music box-like quality. The atmosphere is light, ethereal and sleepy, never rising above background music levels, perfectly in keeping with the goal of these discs. The No Doubt edition includes versions of "Don't Speak," "New" and "Suspension Without Suspense."

Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of Led Zeppelin (2006)


Each release in the Rockabye Baby! series takes the best known songs of a particular artist and places them in a lullaby processor that involves chimes, bells, and vibraphones, renditions that are slightly more involved than the music that comes out of the average baby mobile. Whether the original versions are heavy and aggressive or light and subdued, these lullaby versions are uniformly appropriate for their purpose. And, in some cases, they even happen to tease out an unlikely amount of melodicism not apparent in the originals. The Led Zeppelin volume features versions of "Over the Hills and Far Away," "Going to California," "Dazed and Confused," "Kashmir," "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You," and "Thank You."
