Notaro" Subject: Rufus - NJC All's right with Rufus Singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright pulls off an eclectic range of genres in his stellar new album. By SEAN DALY, Times Pop Music Critic Published May 19, 2007 Rufus Wainwright Release the Stars (Geffen) GRADE: A It is impossible for Rufus Wainwright to be subtle. Or private. Or straight. Or dull. The mischievous son of folk heroes Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle, the 33-year-old is drama incarnate, a gay icon, a recovering drug addict, a pop star like no other. Opera, gospel, cabaret. big band, Broadway, rock. On new album Release the Stars, Wainwright creates a brutally honest, genre-splattered gem even he calls "huge." How huge? Album opener Do I Disappoint You mixes bird calls, a children's choir and a crescendoing symphony akin to a Cecil B. DeMille epic. The song would be ridiculous if it weren't so ridiculously moving, a lapel-gripping plea for tolerance. But that's Rufus for you, always striving for a grand statement - and almost always making his point. Last year, the Hollywood-handsome star made news by booking time at Carnegie Hall and re-creating, song for song, a classic 1961 Judy Garland performance. The New York Times raved about the live show. So did Entertainment Weekly. The parallels between Rufus and Judy were suddenly clear: prodigious showbiz kids with all the talent in the world - and all the drugs, breakups and family dysfunction that come with it. The similarities don't stop there. Like Garland, Wainwright holds nothing back when he sings, whether he's soundtracking a Disney movie Meet the Robinsons or remaking a Beatles song (Across the Universe) or tackling an aria (Agnus Dei). He's a belter with a slightly nasal croon and an emphatic knack for language. He doesn't just yearn, he YEARNS. He might go off on a wild vocal run (he loves Edith Piaf almost as much as Garland), but he always returns to a crowd-pleasing place. Along with playing a handful of instruments, Wainwright writes his songs, too, framing moody, funny diary entries in colorful compositions. On 2002 song Cigarettes and Chocolate Milk, a must-have on any iPod, he chronicles his crystal meth dependency over a cartoonish melody fit for Willy Wonka. On the new Nobody's Off the Hook, he revisits his struggles with sobriety. "Haven't fallen down in a while, " he smirks, as an Eleanor Rigbian violin paints a lonely landscape. Wainwright's favorite topic remains the pretty young things he chases (and dumps) around the globe, and that pursuit reaches new heights on Between My Legs. What starts as a roots-rocky breakup tune ends with French horns, harp plucks and 73-year-old actor Sian Phillips echoing the lyrics with Shakespearean gravitas. Almost as good, the slow-building Slideshow is reminiscent of a '70s ballad by Elton John, another brazenly gay performer with universal appeal. Every now and then, Wainwright kicks half his band out of the studio and makes do with a smaller circus. On dirgelike first single Going to a Town, he laments, "I'm so tired of you America, " a Dear John letter to the country he hates to love. The gauzy, gorgeous Not Ready to Love devastates as well. Release the Stars builds to the closing title track, an escapist fantasy about the glamor and idealism of old-time Hollywood. Wainwright has time-traveled here before, starring as a ballroom balladeer warbling I'll Build a Stairway to Paradise in Martin Scorsese's Howard Hughes biopic The Aviator. But if that movie was big, this song is bigger: horn and string sections, booming drums, doo-wopping backing singers. And there, in the midst of it all, is Wainwright, masking his pain in the escapism of the movies, YEARNING for happily every after. ) 2007  All Rights Reserved  St. Petersburg Times ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 19 May 2007 08:53:00 EDT From: LCStanley7@aol.com Subject: Re: Banquet A youngster wrote: > What do you guys think of that song? > Hi Monika, Love the song.

I like Sarah Slean doing her own stuff. She has a very 1920s or 1930s sort of voice, I think. I've only got one CD of hers though. However, I found the arrangements of these songs (and I also listened to a couple of Ron Sexsmith's covers of Lightfoot and a couple of the French ones) all sounded the same. The tempo was pretty much the same for all (slooooowww), as if they overdid the reverential stuff.

Human activity is the main culprit, said researcher Corinne Le Quere, who called the finding very alarming. The phenomenon wasn't expected to be apparent for decades, Le Quere said in a telephone interview from the University of East Anglia in Britain. "We thought we would be able to detect these only the second half of this century, say 2050 or so," she said. But data from 1981 through 2004 show the sink is already full of carbon dioxide. "So I find this really quite alarming." The Southern Ocean is one of the world's biggest reservoirs of carbon, known as a carbon sink. When carbon is in a sink -- whether it's an ocean or a forest, both of which can lock up carbon dioxide -- it stays out of the atmosphere and does not contribute to global warming. The new research, published in the latest edition of the journal Science, indicates that the Southern Ocean has been saturated with carbon dioxide at least since the 1980s. This is significant because the Southern Ocean accounts for 15 percent of the global carbon sink, Le Quere said. Global Warming Spurs Winds Increased winds over the last half-century are to blame for the change, Le Quere said. These winds blend the carbon dioxide throughout the Southern Ocean, mixing the naturally occurring carbon that usually stays deep down with the human-caused carbon. When natural carbon is brought up to the surface by the winds, it is harder for the Southern Ocean to accommodate more human-generated carbon, which comes from factories, coal-fired power plants and petroleum-powered motor vehicle exhaust. The winds themselves are caused by two separate human factors. First, the human-spawned ozone depletion in the upper atmosphere over the Southern Ocean has created large changes in temperature throughout the atmosphere, Le Quere said. Second, the uneven nature of global warming has produced higher temperatures in the northern parts of the world than in the south, which has also made the winds accelerate in the Southern Ocean. "Since the beginning of the industrial revolution the world's oceans have absorbed about a quarter of the 500 gigatons (500 billion tons) of carbon emitted into the atmosphere by humans," Chris Rapley of the British Antarctic Survey said in a statement. "The possibility that in a warmer world the Southern Ocean -- the strongest ocean sink -- is weakening is a cause for concern," Rapley said. Another sign of warming in the Antarctic was reported on Tuesday by NASA, which found vast areas of snow melted on the southern continent in 2005 in a process that may accelerate invisible melting deep beneath the surface. Frightening Forecast for Earth In April, scientists laid out a troubling timeline of the planet's future.

The line "some get nothing though there's plenty to share" always hits me right between the eyes. That ecstatic moment of her vocalizing "gli-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ide" is in and of itself worth the price of admission. And like most FTR tunes, not many covers of it - (2), a pretty laid back Lani Hall and a semi-prog rock version by Manfred Mann's Earth Band where they switch around a lot of the words.

As Jerry says, this is the audio from a Toronto TV studio with audience. The back says "Sept. 23, 1994". It is quite good quality, but not as good as I would expect from an official release.
