Night Call

Olly Alexander (Years & Years)

Pop - Released January 21, 2022 | Polydor Records

Hi-Res
The third album from England's Years & Years, 2022's sleek and hooky Night Call, is singer Olly Alexander's first production since the departure of founding members Mikey Goldsworthy and Emre Türkmen. Amiably citing creative differences that grew more apparent during the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns, the trio split in 2021, purportedly scrapping a finished album and paving the way for Alexander to push forward on his own. The result is a diamond-sharp production rife with disco-hot bangers that evoke the classic work of artists like Giorgio Moroder, Michael Jackson, and the Real McCoy. It's a frothy, throw-back aesthetic that fits perfectly with Alexander's charismatic persona and highly resonant vocal style even as it is admittedly a stylistic shift away from the arty electronica that helped win the group a BBC Sound of 2015 award. While there's certainly a more direct pop quality to Alexander's work here, the album is no less finely attuned than his past work. Helping him make this transition are a handful of like-minded writers and producers (several who've worked with Years & Years before), including Mark Ralph (Gracey, Marina, Clean Bandit), Clarence Coffee, Jr. (Jesse Ware, Dua Lipa, BUNT.), and Swedish duo Galantis, the latter of whom also guest on the uplifting house anthem "Sweet Talker." Other cuts like "Starstruck" and "Crave" are shimmering dancefloor shakers that bring to mind Alexander's past collaborations with pop legends like Kylie Minogue and Pet Shop Boys. While Night Call builds nicely upon Years & Years' indie electronic roots, it primarily feels like a new beginning for Alexander as he boldly embraces his pop future.© Matt Collar /TiVo

Jessie J

Pop - Released October 14, 2014 | Lava Music - Republic Records

Hi-Res
Though Jessie J's 2013 album Alive had several singles enter the U.K. Top 40, it did little in the U.S. J followed the rather bland, ballad-heavy set with Sweet Talker, a collection of songs tailored to regain her footing as a pop star in the States. At the very least, the album is a lot more energetic than the misleadingly named Alive: filled with cameos by American artists as well as collaborations with A-list producers, Sweet Talker is the flashy opposite of what came before it. Sometimes the too-much-is-never-enough approach actually works: "Bang Bang," the Max Martin-produced hit single that presented J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj as a saucy girl group for the 2010s, goes so over the top with pop fizz that it demands listeners' attention. While it's arguable that Minaj's mile-a-minute rapping and 2014's pop It Girl Grande steal the show from Jessie, "Bang Bang" did get her back on the charts and on people's minds in the U.S. The rest of Sweet Talker doesn't quite capitalize on that hit's sound or momentum; recorded in just three weeks, it finds J trying as many sounds and styles as possible in the hope that something will stick. The album's second single, "Burnin' Up," nods to rap via a cameo by 2 Chainz and to EDM with strobing synths; elsewhere, she returns to P!nk-esque pop on "Masterpiece" and "Said Too Much," a decent riff on "Blow Me (One Last Kiss)" and the brash attitude of her debut on "Ain't Been Done." Likewise, the album's ballads run the gamut from the pretty but repetitive "Personal" to the more overwrought territory of "Get Away" and "Fire," which ends up sounding more frantic than dramatic thanks to J's rushed delivery. A few moments on Sweet Talker balance the album's extremes: "Seal Me with a Kiss," which features De La Soul, channels "Bang Bang"'s sense of fun into playful retro-soul with hip-hop flair, while "Keep Us Together" opts for a more mature R&B pop sound that feels a lot less contrived than much of the album. While Sweet Talker's lack of a clear artistic voice makes it wildly uneven, it just might be loud enough to regain American listeners' attention.© Heather Phares /TiVo

Sweet Talker

Richard Thompson

Film Soundtracks - Released January 1, 1991 | Capitol Records

In 1990, Richard Thompson wrote the score for Sweet Talker, a pleasant but unremarkable Australian comedy starring Bryan Brown and Karen Allen, and a year later Thompson's record label gave the film's soundtrack album an American release (which is more than can be said of the film itself, which quietly went straight to video on these shores). Thompson wrote four songs for the film, including a pair of upbeat pop/rockers, "To Hang a Dream On" and "Put Your Trust in Me," and an amusing country & western pastiche, "Boomtown," for which Thompson handed the vocal chores over to John Andrew Parks. But the rest of the album is devoted to instrumental pieces, and while they're skillful and well played (and feature Thompson's usual stable of longtime sidemen, including Simon Nichol, Dave Mattacks, and John Kirkpatrick), they're clearly background music; they weren't designed to have an especially strong personality of their own, and for the most part they don't. As a result, the Sweet Talker soundtrack is the sort of thing that will please loyal fans but won't do much for the casual observer, though Capitol Records is to be commended for allowing Thompson's U.S. fans to hear some above average marginalia at domestic rather than import prices.© Mark Deming /TiVo
