| | Frozen Orange - David Kilgour - Buy @ SmokeCDs.com music cd store |
 | | A sublime combination of Kilgour's signature guitar lines and shambolic quirky melodies, plus the indie-country tinged beauty of his Nashville friends, 'Frozen Orange' marks another magnificent step in this quietly achieving New Zealand legend's path to "pop" greatness. | | | The beautifully textural 'A Feather In The Engine' announced a real return to form for Kilgour, and it was while touring the US with that album that the basis for this album was hatched. | | | While opening for the sublime Lambchop on that tour, Kilgour utilised several members of the collective as his "backing" band to great success. |

| | David Bowie - Heathen |
| | The release of Heathen, Bowie's first album in three years, marks an important crossroads for him as he makes a concerted effort to transform from mere musician of note into musical godfather. | | | In marketing terms this album makes a big noise - that David Bowie remains one of pop's most successful and inventive chameleons, that everybody loves him, that he's back and that he means business. | | | Bowie is certainly not past it, and with Heathen he suggests that we're quite some way from hearing the last of him. |
