Conor Oberst - Conor Oberst
Artist: Conor Oberst Review: On last year's "Cassadaga," Conor Oberst left his home in New York to wander the country's byways. On his latest album, recorded in Mexico, the Omaha, Nebraska, native is still drifting, having ditched both his Bright Eyes moniker and longtime producer Mike Mogis. A rough-hewn, death-haunted travelogue, this set proves that while you can run from home, you can't run from yourself. And sometimes that's OK. Largely, this is the introspective folk rock of Bright Eyes, though there's some welcome... Rating: 3.5 Stars

The Clash - Live at Shea Stadium
Artist: The Clash Review: In late 1982, the greatest punk band of all time was in the midst of a swift, sad decline: Though the Clash had just released their most commercially successful album, Combat Rock, they had also just booted longtime drummer and then-smack addict Topper Headon — a move that, according to late, great frontman Joe Strummer, sent the band "limping to its death." The f0llowing year would see the departure of singer-guitarist Mick Jones, and the classic Clash lineup would never cut another... Rating: 4 Stars

The Zutons, You Can Do Anything
The Zutons are, you'll be relieved to know, on fine form.
James Hunter, The Hard Way
More blues, maybe? More twanging rock'n'roll, perchance?

Rodney Crowell - Sex & Gasoline
Artist: Rodney Crowell Review: Ever since 2001's The Houston Kid, country singer Rodney Crowell has been coming to terms with his private life in his music. The largely acoustic Sex & Gasoline is his meditation on femininity — not just a celebration of women, but a real attempt at empathy. In the midtempo shuffle "The Rise and Fall of Intelligent Design," he imagines what it feels like to be female. Over the fingerpicked folk of "Moving Work of Art," he reveals his own tendency to objectify women. And in "I've Done... Rating: 3.5 Stars
Friendly Fires - Friendly Fires
Artist: Friendly Fires Review: In the vein of funky white guys like Hot Chip and LCD Soundsystem, these British lads take disco and rock, rave and pop, groove and melody, and Cuisinart them into an airy froth. But unlike many dance-rock peers, this trio never actually stretch out for the high-steppers at the discothèque: Only one cut on their 10-song, 37-minute album goes past the four- minute mark. At heart, they are strict pop formalists, packing each track with peppy hooks ("On Board," as heard in a Wii ad), gushy New Roma... Rating: 3.5 Stars
Mystery Jets, Twenty One
At times this makes for rather surreal, though tantalizingly marvelous listening.
Mattafix, Rhythm & Hymns
This has its share of pop hooks, but attempts to square this with Mattafix's world music sympathies don?t always come off.

Brett Dennen - Hope For The Hopeless
Artist: Brett Dennen Review: Brett Dennen was a hippie camp counselor before he became a John Mayer-approved troubadour on 2006's So Much More. So brace yourself for "Closer to You," where he admits to "wearing nothing but my birthday suit." That unsettling mental image aside, Dennen's third disc suggests he may soon give Dave Matthews a run for his tour grosses. "Make You Crazy" is a jubilant rave-up with Femi Kuti on vocals, while the quiet ballad "So Far From Me" is perfect for a dorm-room make-out. Dennen can be heavy-h... Rating: 3 Stars

Jimmy Hughes - The Best of Jimmy Hughes
Artist: Jimmy Hughes Review: An overlooked gospel-turned-R&B singer with a keening, feminine voice, Jimmy Hughes put Muscle Shoals, Alabama, home of the Fame label and studios, on the map with his Top 20 hit "Steal Away" in 1964 — several years before Aretha Franklin and Otis Redding recorded there. His verge-of-tears intensity enlivens this collection, out of print for years, which spans from soft, elegant ballads like "Why Not Tonight" to greasy funk workouts such as "I'm a Man of Action." Some of the material, like... Rating: 3.5 Stars

Otis Redding - Live in London & Paris
Artist: Otis Redding Review: Otis Redding didn't simply "play concerts." The soul giant was a human Mount Vesuvius: He erupted. Redding was at the height of his fame in March 1967, when he played these two brief shows in London and Paris. (He would die in a plane crash in December that year.) And the audience's reaction is ecstatic — it's a fair bet that few of these Europeans had ever witnessed a spectacle quite like Redding and the all-star Stax house band, Booker T. and the MG's and the Mar-Key horns, tearing into...
