| The rise of Bollywood soundtracks in the West has led to an increased awareness of the unique and often kitschy music and their composers, which have a popularity in India that rivals that of top pop stars in the West. With hundreds of song credits ranging from ad jingles or film soundtracks, as well as the music for the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical Bollywood Dreams, the 38-year-old Rahman's resume is such that he's now considered one of the great composers of India. Based on his original score to the film Warriors Of Heaven And Earth, this album adaptation is Rahman's first full-fledged orchestral work. Eschewing tabla and sitar cliques, Rahman takes in influences of Turkey and China as well as India and integrates them into sweeping orchestral arrangements that recall the East-meets-West panoramic beauty of the The Last Emperor soundtrack. Rahman has the rare ability to articulate complex emotions without lyrics, and Between Heaven And Earth is the work of this master in full bloom. --Tad Hendrickson

| The electro-powered grooves of the writing-production team the Neptunes have abetted fine-to-great tracks by everyone from Jay-Z and Ol' Dirty Bastard to Britney Spears. On their debut as performers, they display an irresistible knack for hooky tracks rooted in the eclectic listening habits they developed while growing up in the multiracial Virginia Beach, Virginia, neighborhoods they still call home. Fusing album rock and rap more forcefully and convincingly than Kid Rock or Durst-style aggro bands (the latter of whom they seem to lampoon on "Rock Star"), N.E.R.D. whip up a creamy yet slammin' mix. Main men Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo coax apropos guest shots from Kelis (the get-your-freak-on "Truth or Dare," the sexiest thing here aside from the ménage-a-wow plea "Tape You") and a handful of up-and-coming members. The live instrumentation that replaces the machine-tooled tracks of an earlier import version of In Search Of retains the tunes' syncopation while rendering it palatable for less eclectic rock fans. While not a commercial blockbuster on the order of many of their clients' discs, this venture is nonetheless one of 2002's standout releases. --Rickey Wright

List Price: $19.98
Amazon Price: $32.64

| At the height of their dynamic power Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle and Keith Moon combined to produce the extreme outer limit of rock experience. More so than any of Britain's legendary rock bands, The Who built their reputation as concert performers, setting standards by which all other rock bands continue to measure their own worth. The Who: Thirty Years of Maximum R&B Live features The Who playing not only their well-known hits, but lesser-known material that came to life on stage. It is the nearest thing yet to what, for many, was the ultimate high--The Who live. Also includes unseen early documentary footage plus exclusive new interviews with Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey and John Entwistle. Songs: Anyway Anyhow Anywhere, So Sad About Us, A Quick One While He's Away, Happy Jack, Heaven and Hell, I Can't Explain, Water, Young Man Blues, I Don't Even Know Myself, My Generation, Substitute, Bell Boy, My Generation Blues, Dreaming from the Waist, Sister Disco, Who Are You, 5:15, My Wife, Music Must Change, Pinball Wizard, Behind Blue Eyes, Love Reign O'er Me, Boris the Spider, I Can See For Miles, See Me Feel Me.
