LOS ANGELES (Billboard) –A year ago, Kris Allen was attending the University of Central Arkansas, playing gigs at local bars and adjusting to life as a newlywed. Now, thanks to "American Idol," he's enough of a brand name that his major-label debut is self-titled. "Kris Allen" (19 Recordings/Jive) was released November 17, and odds are good that Allen can build off his digital-single

Parts of Norah Jones's 2007 album Not Too Late sounded rather like a scrubbed-up, housetrained Tom Waits, so it's no surprise that for this follow-up, she enlisted the services of producer Jacquire King in an attempt to obtain the "balance between beautiful and rough" that he secured for Waits's Mule Variations.

Up to now, Glee has sort of tip-toed around being a musical, keeping the songs primarily performance-based, with lyrical ties not overtly specific to the moment. "Ballads" is the first episode that really can't be called anything but a musical, with every song having overt literal meaning to the scene at hand. And if there was any question, Rachel set us straight at the end. "Just listen...

Just been watching the OGWT 1971-1987 DVD (which is bloody marvellous!

Fantastic! plus they play ace! Oh and Bonnie Raitt singing 'Been too long at the fair". That has to be the purest voice I've ever heard.Magnificent....

When I was growing up in Tulsa in the early 1970's, I remember the competition between the perennial AM radio enemies (at least to me) KAKC and KELI. I always liked KAKC, until the sixth grade, when I had a crush on a girl at church named Kelly, and then my favorite became KELI for a while. My older brother and I couldn't wait to hear Casey Kasem's American Top Forty show. We would listen to the entire...
