(I prefer listening without visuals, if only to keep to the context of the original. Rufus Wainwright, Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall – Take your pick: You can enjoy Rufus re-staging Judy Garland’s legendary, Grammy-grabbing 1961 performance in its entirety before a rapturous crowd at the actual location, via this two-CD set, or you can pick up the DVD ( Rufus! Rufus! Rufus! Does Judy! Judy! Judy! Live from the London Palladium), which adds a full “Get Happy” to the finale, plus Wainwright in all his inimitable splendor.Robbed of the visual element that typically makes beat-boxers seem better than they really are, incapable of singing in anything but a monotonous, placidly pretty tone, his mouthing-off here (so to speak) winds up a persistent distraction in songs so recycled they can instantly elicit disapproving chuckles.

But though this is arguably the most of-the-moment Idol-related release since Kelly Clarkson’s Breakway, it’s also inadvertently hilarious. Or how about a Keane retread? Maybe you’re in the market for a ballad with all the depth and believability of Patrick Swayze’s “She’s Like the Wind”? Yeah, Blake’s got one of those, too – and 13-year-old girls are gonna love it all as much as his impeccably trimmed facial hair. Don’t like his handful of Justin Timberlake rip-offs? No worries – here’s a Maroon 5 facsimile, and another. So it is that Lewis’ ADD (get it?) is an expensive put-on, an everything-plus-the-kitchen-sink enterprise aiming to keep him on Top 40 radio by any means necessary. Yet even at his best (which pretty much amounts to his novel handling of Bon Jovi’s “You Give Love a Bad Name” and little else) two things were painfully evident: Lewis’ “talent” is as borrowed as his vocal range is narrow, and his merely adequate beat-boxing would certainly become a major annoyance once the time came for this clone to cut his inevitable debut.

Blake Lewis, Audio Day Dream – Contemporary when most of his competitors were old-fashioned, Lewis was a breath of fresh air during American Idol’s sixth season.

Another (more forgiving) opinion of Blake Lewis’ debut … Toby Keith, Mindy Smith, Barry Manilow and more offer holiday albums … Jill Scott, Lupe Fiasco add local dates
