Chris Isaak managed to turn his videogenic visage and brooding masculinity to his advantage in a big way, becoming a sort of MTV-era cross between James Dean and Elvis. Heady stuff, but don't hate him because he's beautiful. In fact, Isaak had been plying his trademark latter-day rockabilly sound for some years before the inclusion of "Wicked Game" in the David Lynch film Wild at Heart jolted sales of Heart Shaped World. (But in truth, the stylish Herb Ritts video didn't hurt, either.) Still, the album is a moody gem, featuring the pensive title track, the smouldering "Blue Spanish Sky", and, of course, "Wicked Game". If you still doubt Isaak's good intentions, though, check out the album's rocking finale, a fine version of Bo Diddley's "Diddley Daddy". --Daniel Durchholz
