Jackpot Juicer

Dance Gavin Dance

Hard Rock - Released July 29, 2022 | Rise Records

The tenth full-length effort from the dynamic post-hardcore unit Dance Gavin Dance, Jackpot Juicer is the final studio album to feature vocalist Tilian Pearson, who recently left the group, and bassist Tim Feerick, who died just months before the record's release. The band's longest-running LP to date, the 18-song set was produced by Kris Crummett and includes the fiery Rob Damiani (Don Broco)-assisted lead single "Synergy."© Tivo Staff /TiVo

Highway Queen

Nikki Lane

Country - Released February 17, 2017 | New West Records

Hi-Res
Nikki Lane's 2014 album for New West Records was a splashy affair, coming with an endorsement from Dan Auerbach, the leader of the Black Keys, who produced the album. As excellent as All or Nothin' was -- and it was a sharp, smart record, walking the fine line separating retro-Americana and modern country -- it was also somewhat hampered by its association with Auerbach, suggesting that Lane may be a hipster roots act. Highway Queen, Lane's 2017 sequel co-produced by Lane and Jonathan Tyler, dismisses any of these notions, thanks to its stripped-down noir-ish production. Alternating between immediacy and mud, Highway Queen has a distinct, dusky vibe that's alluring, drawing listeners into its hidden recesses. Lane favors old-fashioned forms -- there are hints of girl group, honky tonk, rock & roll boogie, and outlaw country percolating beneath the album's surface -- but when the tempo slows down and the vistas stretch out, she holds her own with Neko Case, assaying moody journeys into the dark corners of the soul. The key to Lane's appeal is that she's not an art-pop vocalist, she's a country singer, keeping her wounded emotions and kicking rhythms in the forefront; the hidden emotions certainly matter but the gut-level impact matters more. That's what gives Highway Queen its edge. As impressionistic as the smeary sounds can be, it's an album that rests on its sturdy songs and Lane's powerful performance, two elements that keep Highway Queen as engaging on repeated listens as it is on its first.© Stephen Thomas Erlewine /TiVo

Congo Ashanti

The Congos

Reggae - Released November 8, 1979 | VP Records

The Congos' 1977 release, Heart of the Congos, produced by maverick Jamaican genius Lee "Scratch" Perry at his Black Ark studio, remains a roots reggae classic, and is arguably the high-water mark of Perry's unique sound. By inference, Heart of the Congos was also a peak for the Congos, as well, which made their follow-up, Congos Ashanti, an immediate disappointment. Recorded at Harry J's for Columbia Records, Ashanti (done without any assistance from Perry) had a smooth, slick and glossy feel, and where Perry's trademark watery Black Ark sound had made the previous album seem rich, deep and mysterious, Ashanti turned the group's greatest strength (Cedric Myton's soaring falsetto) into its biggest weakness. Myton's vocals on most of this album are simply irritating, unhinged from Roy Johnson's clear tenor (and Perry's kitchen sink rhythm bed), they bounce around in the ether like a Rastaman on helium. The songs aren't particularly striking, either, at least not enough to overcome the mainstream production, and even with crack Jamaican session musicians like Sly Dunbar, Willie Lindo, Ernest Ranglin and Tommy McCook aboard, Congos Ashanti sounds pretty generic. Listeners curious about this duo should definitely check out Heart of the Congos, one of the greatest records ever to come out of Jamaica, but should approach anything else by the Congos with lesser expectations.© Steve Leggett /TiVo

Blah Blah Blah

Blahzay Blahzay

Hip-Hop/Rap - Released August 13, 1996 | Mercury Records

Blahzay Blahzay's debut album, Blah Blah Blah, is a stellar piece of East Coast hip-hop, which isn't surprising since the duo were heavily involved in New York rap for a number of years before they released their own record. Though Blah Blah Blah isn't as sonically innovative as any of RZA's productions for the various Wu-Tang members, it is miles beyond the standard G-funk and gangsta pap that flooded the market in the mid-'90s. Both DJ P.F. Cuttin and MC Outloud are skilled rappers, but more importantly, they know how to construct musical backdrops that are funky, menacing, and exciting. It's a debut album that's full of promise, but more importantly, also full of achievement.© Leo Stanley /TiVo

The Dramatic Jackpot

Ron Banks

R&B - Released January 1, 1975 | Geffen

A satisfying Dramatics collection that includes their revised, campy version of "Me and Mrs. Jones," which had remained a staple of their live shows. Astrology was riding high in the mid-'70s, and "(I'm Going By) The Stars in Your Eyes" provided fodder for astrological discussions as the guys poo-poohed the differences in personality traits associated with the signs. A good balance of fast and slow tunes helps make this album a winner. "Good Things Don't Come Easy" and "Never Let You Go" are two frantic dancers that chug along faster than a speeding locomotive, while "Trying to Get Over Losing You" succeeds in treating losing your lover in a positive, uplifting way. The guys must have been loaded with material to keep this one off a 45. Likewise for the aching, painful "I Cried All the Way Home," one of Tony Hester's best compositions, and easily the best ballad on the album. The Dramatic Jackpot has been reissued on CD and at a good price.© Andrew Hamilton /TiVo

Save the Last Dance for Me

The Drifters

Pop - Released August 5, 2021 | Rhino Atlantic

Hi-Res
The first LP appearance by the Ben E. King-era Drifters, as was usually the case with this group, took place more than a year after King himself had left the group, replaced by Rudy Lewis whose voice is featured on most of the tracks here. This album is more unified than its predecessor, which is understandable as it appeared in the wake of a succession of hits utilizing the same core group and the same style of production, mixing strings into an R&B sound and creating something new and attractive that crossed over very easily to pop listeners. "When My Little Girl Is Smiling," "Room Full of Tears," and the title track exemplify the sound, but the finest cut here might be "Nobody but Me." A Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman-authored B-side to the title cut, "Nobody but Me" should have been a hit in its own right. Actually, as with prior releases by the group, the album is comprised of single A- and B-sides, including "Please Stay," "Jackpot," and "Mexican Divorce." The album also provides a likely explanation for the non-release of the excellent "She Never Talked to Me That Way": its similarity (especially in the chorus) to another Pomus/Shuman number on this album, "Somebody New Dancing With You," which was cut earlier and probably precluded the release of "She Never Talked to Me That Way" on a single at the time.© Bruce Eder /TiVo

Jackpot

Chingy

Hip-Hop/Rap - Released January 1, 2003 | Capitol Records

A pop-rap sensation weeks before his debut album was even released, Chingy didn't really need a solid effort to move platinum-level units, as his massive breakthrough debut single, "Right Thurr," was certainly enough in itself. The track borrows everything wonderful about Nelly's "Hot in Herre" smash hit from the summer before. From the bouncy, bassy beats to the Southerrn dialect, and from the sexual overtones to the teen pop accessibility of the hook, "Right Thurr" is an instant party rap classic. The remainder of Jackpot -- especially "Holidae In," featuring both Ludacris and Snoop Dogg -- is nearly as tailor-made for pop-rap appeal. Credit largely goes to the Trak Starz, whose Neptunesque productions fill the album (they produce all but one song). On the downside, the quality of the hooks sometimes doesn't match up to that of the beats, and Chingy himself lacks the substance to match his style. Still, there are enough well-crafted songs on Jackpot to make it an entertaining listen from beginning to end, provided you skip past a few songs here and there.© Jason Birchmeier /TiVo

The Return Of Bruno

Bruce Willis

Funk - Released January 1, 1987 | UNI - MOTOWN

At the height of Moonlighting mania and after the Seagram's wine cooler commercials showcased his vocal skills, Motown asked Bruce Willis to record a full album of blues, R&B, and soul -- hence, The Return of Bruno. Willis has more vocal talent than, say, Cybill Shepherd, but he doesn't quite have the conviction or skill of the Blues Brothers. Often, it's difficult to hear him strain for notes on familiar items like "Under the Boardwalk," "Young Blood," and "Respect Yourself," but that same limited talent makes the ready-made originals "Jackpot," "Down in Hollywood," and "Flirting with Disaster" appealing kitsch. And, really, The Return of Bruno isn't anything more than a kitsch artifact -- Willis may deeply believe he has vocal talent, but the album stands more as a testament to the excesses of Reagan-era celebrity and baby-boomer nostalgia than as a piece of music.© Stephen Thomas Erlewine /TiVo
