Album Reviews
With Anthology you can get an overview of Gaye's Motown work without having to plunk the money down for The Marvin Gaye Collection boxed set. The two-disc set contains most of his major hits (although the number one hit "Let's Get It On" appeared only on CD editions of Anthology), including "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)," "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)," "I Heard It Through the Grapevine," "Trouble Man," "I'll Be Doggone," "What's Going On," "Hitch Hike," "Can I Get a Witness," and "Pride and Joy," as well as his numerous duets with Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell, like "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," "Ain't Nothing like the Real Thing," "It Takes Two," and "Your Precious Love." ~ All Music Guide, All Music Guide

Never Miss A Beat Kaiser Chiefs |
| The kings of chorus repetition strike again with this good intentioned look at the state of our youth and the failure of the education system. Don't panic! As serious as this may sound, these are neither deep lyrics nor they reflect any worrying shift towards U2-like social analysis. "Never Miss A Beat" does not desperately try to be as popular as "Ruby", which makes it more enjoyable, and although it cannot compare with the Chiefs' best moments (namely, their debut singles) many want to see some sort of getting back to form, fuelled by their collaboration with new Britpop king, Mark Ronson, who was called to produce their forthcoming effort. His Midas touch is expected to rescue the band from the typical disappointing effect of that difficult second album. This new single, though, lacks of the shock and awe effect a different sound direction would have provided; instead Ronson respectfully brings the band back to the familiar sonic frame where Kaiser Chiefs used to feel at home, but a few surprises may be unveiled when "Off With Their Heads" gets a release. | |
