Fronted by the sweet but sassy Ellie Vee, The Charms are, well, charming. Always impressive on stage, the Boston rock band has just released its fourth record. The mix includes: the catchy melody with dive-bombing guitar interlude of "So Romantic;" the pure pop of "Here's To You," and "LTD," a song that recalls the Go-Gos and provides the record's title phrase as well as the buzzing, breathy "Lost Child;" the swaggering but biting "Star Rider;" the seductive, lusty wailer "Touch;" the hard-driving, drum-driven "The Wolf;" the easy swinging acoustic "She's Waiting;" and "Broken Heart," a girl group song with only one girl singing. "Strange Magic" was produced by Jim Diamond, Detroit's master of all things garage, and it's one of those records that grows on you each time you listen to it. In classic rock 'n' roll fashion, its 12 songs clock in at 35 minutes. That's less than three minutes each, which is how rock 'n' roll is supposed to be made.
