Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head: Volume 01 is an instrumental-based (second overall) album by the American electronic rock band, Celldweller. It is the first album in the SVH series. While chronologically Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head Vol. 01 is the second studio album by Celldweller, it is not the second main Celldweller album; instead, the album is more of a side project. When asked about whether SVH 01 is a second Beta Cessions release, Klayton replied that "he wanted to be sure that SVH 01 was a separate entity from the Beta Cessions material".

One of the most underrated arrangers around, Roger Neumann had a rare opportunity to record his big band in 1983; surprisingly, the orchestra's second instrumental date would not take place for another decade. Neumann, who is featured on tenor during "Emily," heads a 19-piece big band on this highly recommended album that includes among its personnel the then-unknown altoist Eric Marienthal, trombonists Herbie Harper and Bob Enevoldsen. Each of the swinging performances is memorable in its own way, and this ( now long out of print ) album is well-worth searching for. ~ Scott Yanow

Bill Tole “has dedicated himself to bringing the best of the ’40s into the ’90s {and beyond}.” Tole leads a talented swing / dance band in the image of Glenn Miller, the Dorseys, Harry James, Ray Anthony.The music, with a few notable exceptions, is quite familiar but the charts are topnotch & played by its roster of outstanding West Coast–based studio musicians.A colorful scrapbook of modern big–band swing not to be missed.

High Fidelity [Original Soundtrack] [2000] Review by Derrick Mathis
Gen X rock buffs can revel in nostalgia with the High Fidelity soundtrack. The film centers on the romantic escapades of record-store owner and ex-club DJ Rob Gordon (John Cusack) and his full-time obsession with music. Since High Fidelity has as much to do with vinyl addiction as it does with the difficulties of love, great care has been taken with its selection of tracks, a solidly eccentric collection of heartache-heavy pop gems ranging from obscure '60s bands and groundbreaking artists like the Velvet Underground and Bob Dylan, to Stevie Wonder and Stereolab. As in the film, there's a method to the compilers' elitist rock-geek madness. Even co-star Jack Black's schlocky blue-eyed cover of Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On" doesn't seem out of place.

Fabulous Maynard in his mid-60's form.This CD is interesting as it contains two albums Maynard recorded for the Camden label in 1964.It's swinging, straight-ahead jazz, with a number of high-note trumpet features for Maynard and some tasty solos by some of his talented sidemen.Wonderful.
