Curtain Call: New Songs From Past American Idol Finalists, Vol.1 (Exclusive Album)
Various Artists
Release Date: 2/5/08
Tracks: 12
Label: Audio Bee
Runtime: 41 minutes, 9 seconds
American Idol is starting to release compilation CDs featuring past contestants. In Feburary, they released "Curtain Call Vol. 1: New Songs from Past American Idol Finalists". The first volume featured 3 new songs from past contestants: John Peter Lewis, Stevie Scott, Ryan Starr and A.J. Tabaldo
Artist's Addiction Records and Rocket Science have come up with an idea to capitalize on the popularity of American Idol that will showcase some of the more obscure contestants from the past six seasons. The series, dubbed Curtain Call: New Songs from Past American Idol Finalists, will be exclusive to Wal-Mart and iTunes.
The first CD, due out February 5, features Jon Peter Lewis (season 3), Ryan Starr (season 1), Stevie Scott (season 5), and A.J. Tabaldo (season 6). The second, which will is scheduled to be released March 4, includes Gedeon McKinney (season 5), Patrick Hall (season 5), Alaina Alexander (season 6), and Rudy Cardenas (season 6).
By my count there are 140 people out there who got at least as far as the Idol semi-finals. And, in every season, there are certainly those who did not make the top 12 who really deserved to move on. Giving these people one more chance to get their music out there might work. Then again, with Wal-Mart's failure to properly promote their last Idol-related release - Bo Bice's See the Light - I can see these discs quickly hitting the bargain bin.
Here is the track listing:

Judges Thoughts : (R) This kind of music could suit your voice. It wasn’t a stellar performance but it was alright. (P) You are consistent. You have an emotional connection with each song. (S) I thought all of you looked odd together as a group. Wasn’t one of your best.
Name : David Cook
Song Title : Little Sparrow
Judges Thoughts : (R) You made your own arrangement. Another hot performance. (P) I have never heard a guy do that song. Fantastic. It shows how well rounded you are. (S) If you can make a song about sparrow good like you did, congratulation’s.
Name : Ramiele Malubay
Song Title : Do I Ever Cross Your Mind
Judges Thoughts : (R) I wasn’t jumping up and down. It was alright. 6.5 out of 10 (P) I am proud of you. I think that you really connected and were having fun (S) We aren’t going to remember this in 10 years. Overall I thought it was forgettable.

Judges Thoughts : (R) I thought it started rough but by the middle you picked it up. It was pretty good. (P) To me this was one of your strongest performances. You were great. (S) I didn’t like that at all. It sounded like the same song as before. If this had been the first time I had seen you I wouldn’t get it.

Song Title : Here You Come Again
Judges Thoughts : (R) I do believe that will be one of the better performances of the night. (P) That was beautiful. Oh my god. (S) I thought it was good, I didn’t think it was great. You need to have a word with whoever is dressing you. You need to start looking like a star.

Song Title : I Will Always Love You
Judges Thoughts : (R) You took on the biggest tiger of the night and it was alright. (P) Your voice is like a velvety tone. You are growing and growing. (S) The first part was good and the second part paled. It was good but not a fantastic version of the song.
