The Soundtrack
Of Our Lives-"Nevermore" From the greatest
living rock band's latest masterpiece, Behind the Music. White
Town-"Can't Make the World Go Away" This
previously unreleased song is holding us over until the
White Town full-length is complete. More, please. The
Witch Hazel Sound-"Music Becomes Vibration" The
new CD, This World, Then the Fireworks
, from
Kent, Ohio's, The Witch Hazel Sound mixes the pop song
elements of the band's critically-acclaimed debut CD, Landlocked,
and their more orchestrated follow up EP, It's All True. Jeff
Kelly-"Cruel Velvet Sea" The Hidden Agenda
release of Green Pajamas' In a Glass Darkly led
to Indiscretion, the new solo album from the band's creative
leader Jeff Kelly. The All Music Guide calls Indiscretion, "one
of (Kelly's) best albums period, including his Green Pajamas
records." Absinthe Blind-"Antarctica" An
ever-popular live favorite in Parasol's hometown, Absinthe
Blind has paid its dues and is starting to reap the rewards
with its first Mud release The Everyday Separation. Adam
Schmitt-"Overdone" One of four songs that
Adam originally delivered for his prospective Treefalling album.
Previously unreleased. Lasse Lindh-"Bruised" We
first heard Lasse Lindh sing on Club 8's "Keeping
Track of Time," and then were knocked flat when we
heard his full-length You Wake Up at Sea Tac. Neilson
Hubbard-"No One Is To Blame" During one of
his many tours supporting the Parasol release Why Men
Fail, Hubbard stopped in Champaign-Urbana for a live
performance where he wowed us with a cover of this Howard
Jones hit. He was gracious enough to record a version especially
for this collection. Chitlin' Fooks-"Not Enough
Tears" Bettie Serveert's Carol Van Dyk and Sukilove's
Pascal Deweze set the clock to a quarter past country on
their self-titled debut album, steeped in pure Americana. "Not
Enough Tears" is one of the CD's seven original songs
that mingle comfortably among the Flying Burrito Brothers,
Jimmie Rodgers, and Webb Pierce covers. Starlet-"When
Sun Falls On My Feet" This Swedish quartet made it
into Spin.com's Top 20 of 2000 with their second CD Stay
On My Side. This is the title song from Starlet's forthcoming
CD, their third for Parasol. June & the Exit Wounds-"Where
I'm Taken" Parasol Records' best selling artist, June & the
Exit Wounds (aka Todd Fletcher), has been recording the
follow up to a little more Haven Hamilton, please at
home and at various friend's abodes over the past year. "Where
I'm Taken" is a rough mix of one of the songs that
might make the new album. Angie Heaton-"Teach
Me" Nearly three years after her last solo release,
Angie Heaton dips her toe back in the water with an advance
song from her forthcoming album Let It Ride. Autoliner-"Misunderstood" From
Autoliner's latest album Be, "Misunderstood" carries
on the band's kitchen-sink-of-influences tradition, adding
trumpet blasts and wall-to-wall three part harmonies along
the way. Mark Bacino-"Downtown Girl" "Downtown
Girl" is the first song mixed for New Yorker Mark
Bacino's new album, which will be out on Nippon Crown in
Japan, and Parasol in the USA sometime in 2002. Fonda-"Love
Child" It was a great summer of 2001 for LA's Fonda.
The band released their second CD The Strange and the
Familiar and recorded the end theme, "Spy Kids
(Save the World)," for the hit movie Spy Kids.
The band recorded this cover of the Supremes classic for
a Motown tribute that has yet to be released. The Melody
Unit-"Welcome Back Tomorrow" The Melody Unit's
self-released CD from 2000, Odds Against Tomorrow,
was a consensus favorite around the Parasol office last
year. We approached this Seattle band about recording a
new album for Hidden Agenda and we're pleased to release Choose
Your Own Adventure this autumn. Orange Alabaster
Mushroom-"Valerie Vanillaroma" Canadian psych-garage-pop-cult
mastermynd Gregory Watson falls into the category of those
who have definitely had "too much to dream last night." Play
the album from which "Valerie Vanillaroma" is
culled, Space & Time: A Compendium of the Orange
Alabaster Mushroom, at a Nuggets box set marathon,
and see who blinks. Signalmen-"Hold Me Down" The
members of Signalmen have been involved in a variety of
local Champaign-Urbana bands over the years (Proof Of Utah,
Lonely Trailer, Weird Summer, The Outnumbered, The Last
Straw), but this current outfit may end up outlasting them
all. Jack Logan & Bob Kimbell-"Nothin'
But Sky" Following the critical and sales success
of their Little Private Angel CD, Jack & Bob
return with another collection of personal, homespun stories. Jenifer
Jackson-"Since You've Been Away" This home
demo is an exclusive track that does not appear on Jackson's
self-released CD Slowly Bright, or her critically-acclaimed
2001 Parasol debut Birds.
