But if you’re yet to call the likes of Martha Reeves and the Vandellas’ original Dancing in the Street (it knocks the stuffing out of Mick and Dave), Marvin Gaye’s irresistibly infectious Can I Get a Witness and The Supremes’ glorious Stop! In the Name of Love your own (to name but three of the many must-have numbers assembled here), now’s the time. <br />The tracklist for discs one and two – Milestones and Influences and British Chartbusters respectively – reads fairly predictably, but when the quality’s so high, there can be few complaints in that department. And this set offers more than just a clutch of catalogue highlights – disc three focuses on live performances from the likes of Stevie Wonder, The Miracles and Diana Ross, and the fourth and final CD collects ‘Killer Bs’, featuring flipsides from the Four Tops, Michael Jackson and more. <br />It’s the live numbers, recorded in London and Paris, that are of particular interest – Wonder’s superlative I Was Made to Love Her, from a 1970 set at London’s Talk of the Town, showcases the man’s natural vocal flair as he fills every possible silence between the lyrics with an enthusiastic hoot or a holler. His Signed, Sealed Delivered (I’m Yours) is almost implausibly funky – if the irrepressible rhythm doesn’t get you the strutting bass will, and the brass section elevates the song to a dizzying high come its climax. The intimacy of some numbers, particularly those from the Motortown Revue show in Paris, is such that you could be in the room with the performers. <br />With so much to take in, this ‘introduction’ is certainly a lot more comprehensive than most.</span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"> <br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1 <br /></strong>1.

Lead singer Albert Griffiths was an accomplished lead guitarist, and harmony singers Clinton Fearon and Gallimore Sutherland played bass and rhythm guitar, respectively. Although they always seemed to operate somewhat in the shadow of the sweeter-voiced Mighty Diamonds and were not quite as prolific, the Gladiators nevertheless made about as many really fine records as their closest competition, and the ones that they made for Virgin's Front Line imprint are among their best. Proverbial Reggae finds them augmented instrumentally by members of the legendary Revolutionaries studio band, and includes such classic Griffiths compositions as "Best Things in Life," "Jah Works," and the strangely catchy "Stick a Bush," a song whose inscrutable chorus has been parsed nearly to death on reggae discussion lists worldwide. This album was out of print and unavailable for over 20 years; three of its tracks were included on the collection Dreadlocks, the Time Is Now, which was released as part of an initial Front Line reissue push in 1990. In 2002, the original album was reissued on CD with the original cover art. Highly recommended.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Jah Works 3:27 <br />2.

Once again showing a sturdiness of vision that transcends the folk realm, McCarthy reconciles blustery framing gestures like “Intro: Darkness” with the great overlooked. “Parade” revels in the warms and colds of big-city humanity, as McCarthy sings of her astonishment that “a parade made the people in this big town look each other in the eye.” She also returns to the domestic themes of 2008’s A Table Forgotten EP in the ritualistic chants of “Sweeping Spell” and “Housekeeper.” The other constant on Light is McCarthy’s pliable chemistry with her collaborators. On “Violet,” they seem intent on gliding through dozens of harmonies and frictions among voices and instruments, and for all the switch-ups, the song keeps finding new momentum right up to its final, pristine vocal crescendo. Short instrumentals—three “Interlude” tracks and the blurry twinkle of “Bells For Ura” and “Outro: Light”—grease the wheels between mightily realized songs like “O Mary” and “Hibernation Tales.” It might’ve been enough for Faun Fables to bear up McCarthy’s commanding theatricality on this album. Instead, it has a surplus of ideas that only make Light feel more purposeful.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Intro: Darkness 1:33 <br />2.

Whether it's his blues albums or his hard rock albums, Gary Moore had released many great albums during his near 40-year solo career. But by far "Wild Frontier" was the highlight of his hard rock -career. <br />Released in 1987, "Wild Frontier" was another great addition to all the great albums released that year. With Guns N' Roses' "Appetite for Destruction", Whitesnake's "1987" and Def Leppard's "Hysteria", "Wild Frontier" was in good company. <br />The albums sound was different than most rock albums at the time, but still had a typical 80's rock-style to it. The album adopted Celtic elements from Gary Moore's homeland of Northern Ireland, and was dedicated to Moore's childhood friend, Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott, who passed away the earlier year. <br />The album opens up with the epic "Over the Hills and Far Away", which right away shows the Celtic influences of the album. The song also includes some of Moore's most memorable lyrics. <br />"</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><em>They came for him one winter's night. <br />Arrested, he was bound. <br />They said there'd been a robbery, <br />his pistol had been found.</em>" <br />The lyrics tell a story of a man who is wrongly accused of robbery. He won't reveal that he spent the night of the robbery with his best friends wife, so he is sentenced to ten years in prison. A true classic. <br />The album continues with the title track (which Lynott was originally supposed to sing) and "Take a Little Time", both of which are great rockers, with catchy choruses and magnificent hooks. But the next real showstopper comes with the following track. "The Loner" is a moody and emotional instrumental, which just might be one of the greatest instrumentals of all time. The song is dripping with emotion and feels like somewhat of a precursor to Gary Moore's later blues material. <br />Following "The Loner", we get the albums only real misstep; a cover of the 1967-hit "Friday on my Mind" by the Australian band The Easybeats. The song is by no means bad, but it feels very unneccesary being on an album where the original material is so strong. I'm pretty sure that recording a cover for the album was more the record company's idea than Gary Moore's. <br />After "Friday on My Mind", we get "Strangers in the Darkness" and "Thunder Rising", both of which are very catchy. "Strangers" slows things down a bit, before the album kicks into "Thunder Rising", which is probably the heaviest track on the album. <br />The original album ends with the emotional ballad "Johnny Boy", which once again shows the Celtic influences of the album with soothing keyboards and bagpipes. <br />The CD-version also included the alternate versions of "Over the Hills and Far Away" and "Wild Frontier", as well as an extra track, titled "Crying in the Shadows", which fits quite well into the albums overall sound, and could have easily taken the place of "Friday on My Mind". <br />Overall the album is catchy, emotional and extremely good. While it may not be the greatest album from an artistic point of a view, it's an album that Moore could have easily been proud of.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

The trio of teenagers was formed in 2008 while the players were still in high school, and has developed since then into an intense and wildly imaginative group that takes music to its extremes. Emotional, minimalistic, intense and grooving, this is music that goes beyond imagination to the edges of sanity. The group continues their sonic experiments by adding unusual instruments into the traditional rock band setting.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

These early releases for the production team of Joe Gibbs and Errol "E.T." Thompson yielded the group's finest work. Following an unfortunate engagement at Duke Reid's famous Treasure Isle studios (the results of which can be found on the unauthorized Africa Stand Alone), the vocal trio hooked up with Sonia Pottinger and engineer Errol Brown. The partnership, kick-started by Harder Than the Rest, proved highly fruitful, producing a series of albums that closely approached the quality of the earlier releases. This 1978 set finds lead singer Joseph Hill and harmony vocalists Albert Walker and Kenneth Dayes in a mellow mood. Though the melodies can suggest otherwise, by the sound of Hill's voice, the singer can't quite disguise the weight of his words. Songs detail the group's concern for the people of their community in general, and for Rastafarians specifically, driving home a series of lessons, warnings, and pleas. The one song that attempts to dodge these realities, "Love Shines Brighter," is unfortunately marred by over-sentimentality. The typically excellent assembly of session men respond to such material with an appropriately light touch: the exemplary rhythm work of keyboardists Ansel Collins and Earl Lindo and guitarist Willie Lindo is kept under close watch by the great Sly Dunbar. The drummer's playing is effortless as he alternates the makeup of a particular pattern or subtly changes up the rhythm, heading into a chorus. Closer attention to the backing for tracks like "Behold," "Tell Me Where You Get It," and "Vacancy" reveals the sort of strength, though subtle, that drives the best roots music.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

The result was an album that probably did more to seduce listeners far beyond their homeland than any other, not least because it was the first to secure a release in the U.S. and the U.K. Yet although it was recorded live in the studio direct to two-track tape, this is no mere exercise in bash-it-out, one-take boogie. It's a warmly atmospheric set that contains some of the Nits' most fully realized work to date. Many of the songs are inspired by childhood memories, including the title track with its reference to the young Henk Hofstede's assumption that there must be mountains beyond the borders of his home town of Amsterdam. A massive hit across continental Europe, "In the Dutch Mountains" still generates a storm of applause at Nits concerts. Another live mainstay is "J.O.S. Days," an atypically rustic song about Hofstede's failure to make his local football team, featuring sampled acoustic guitar and (real) harmonica. This contrasts sharply with the dreamy "Two Skaters," at around seven minutes one of the longest songs in the Nits' repertoire and as close as they've ever gotten to an exercise in pure atmospherics. Other highlights include "The Swimmer" (yet another in a long line of film references), with frenzied accelerating piano assaults framing a delicate melody; the faintly berserk "An Eating House"; and the gorgeous lullaby "Good Night," with Hofstede's tender vocals cushioned by a remarkably convincing brass band sample. On the vinyl edition, this made for a wonderful coda to the album, but for the CD release three bonus tracks -- none of them quite in keeping with the rest -- were tacked onto the end. Nevertheless, In the Dutch Mountains marked the beginning of a richly creative five-year period that the Nits have yet to top.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

The album opens with the infectious, bluesy "Can't Lose What You Never Had", followed by the country sounding "Just Another Love Song" featuring Dickey Betts on vocals. The jazz influenced instrumental "High Falls" (14:26) is reminiscent of "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and alone makes the album worthy. Betts also does some fine slide work on "Nevertheless" and "Sweet Mama". The vocals on the title song, "Win, Lose or Draw", are not up to Gregg Allman standards, but Betts' beautiful, soulful solo is noteworthy. What holds this album together is Betts' guitar sound- just a beautiful tone throughout.</span></div> <br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

King's influence is strong, with strings overlaid on many of the short, pop orientated songs. The result is similar to the way Phil Spector hijacked the Beatles "Let it be" album. It would be interesting to hear FGTR without the strings, as I am sure it would sound far more like the Genesis with whom we are familiar.<br />In retrospect, the band's capabilities are clearly there, and some of the songs such as "One eyed hound" hint at what was to come on "Trespass". Much of the band's efforts to explore their capabilities are smothered by King's over production, and his efforts to make the band commercially successful. Even Gabriel's vocals only occasionally point to the power which would be unleashed on subsequent albums.<br />We should not however be too hard on King, he did after all discover them and set them on the road to becoming the band we all know and love. The poor selling original "From Genesis to revelation" LP is of course very rare and of significant value. It has however been re-issued on numerous occasions.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1<br /></strong>1.

It's an appropriate format for compositions that deal even more graphically and, for the first time, humorously with Waits' late-night world of bars and diners. The love lyrics of his debut album had long since given way to a comic lonely-guy stance glimpsed in "Emotional Weather Report" and "Better Off Without a Wife." But what really matters is the elaborate scene-setting of songs like the six-and-a-half-minute "Spare Parts," the seven-and-a-half-minute "Putnam County," and especially the 11-and-a-half-minute "Nighthawk Postcards" that are essentially poetry recitations with jazz backing. Waits is a colorful tour guide of midnight L.A., raving over a swinging rhythm section of Jim Hughart (bass) and Bill Goodwin (drums), with Pete Christlieb wailing away on tenor sax between paragraphs and Mike Melvoin trading off with Waits on piano runs. You could call it overdone, but then, this kind of material made its impact through an accumulation of miscellaneous detail, and who's to say how much is too much?</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Ultimately, he was best remembered for a body of songs that he discovered, adapted, or wrote, including "Goodnight, Irene," "Rock Island Line," "The Midnight Special," and "Cotton Fields." But he was also an early example of a folksinger whose background had brought him into direct contact with the oral tradition by which folk music was handed down, a tradition that, by the early years of the century, already included elements of commercial popular music. Because he was an African-American, he is sometimes viewed as a blues singer, but blues (a musical form he actually predated) was only one of the styles that informed his music. He was a profound influence on folk performers of the 1940s such as Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, who in turn influenced the folk revival and the development of rock music from the 1960s onward, which makes his induction into the Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame in 1988, early in the hall's existence, wholly appropriate.<br />Leadbelly's recordings, in addition to the more legitimate reissues on Rounder, Columbia/Legacy, RCA Victor, Capitol, and Smithsonian/Folkways, have turned up on a dizzying number of labels in the CD era, especially as they have come into the public domain in Europe (where copyrights extend only 50 years). Confusing as this discography may be, it is a testament to the continuing influence of Leadbelly on contemporary music.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1</strong><br />1.

Yes indeed, only 6 months after releasing the okay-but-not-super "Together Through Life" album comes Bob Dylan's first Christmas album ever.<br />"Christmas In the Heart" is a collection of traditional Christmas songs, no new Dylan-penned material here. And that is not a slight, as Dylan has shown us that he loves bringing us the tradition of American music (Dylan-style Americana). But how do you bring Christmas songs into Americana without destroying the very psyche of these Christmas tunes? And that's where the problem arises. When listening to this, I wasn't sure whether to laugh or to cry, and instead simply scratched my head, incredulous at what I was hearing. Not helpful in this context is Bob's voice. While his low-fi singing doesn't deter (and in fact enhances) his last couple of studio albums, it simply doesn't work on here, as Bob's voice has the finesse of a bull in a china shop.<br />If I had to point to some highlights on here, I'll go with "Here Comes Santa Claus", "Hark The Herald Angels Sing", and best of all "O' Come All Ye Faithfull (Adeste Fideles)", with Bob singing the first few lines in the original Latin words. Worst of all on here for me is ""Must Be Santa", with is brought at breakneck speed, sort of like a freightrain barrelling down the tracks. Bottom line, I have no idea what Dylan really expected to bring with this album.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Here Comes Santa Claus 2:35<br />2.

Since this is Claire Diterzi, though, it makes sense.<br />Although foremost a musician/songwriter, Diterzi has a long-standing association with other strands of the arts. She’s composed for modern dance, film (2007’s Requiem For Billy The Kid) and has also soundtracked visual art exhibits. Her 2008 album ‘Tableau de Chasse’framed her stage shows subsequent to its release. But whatever the themes or chosen medium, Diterzi is about the music.<br />However, Rosa Luxemburg probably didn’t have music on her mind. Of Jewish descent, she was brought up in Poland and from around age 15 was involved in left-wing politics. After fomenting a general strike, she fled for Switzerland at 18 (the other organisers were executed) and then settled in Germany. A prime mover in the Social Democratic Party (SDP), she was well known for her words, both written and orated. Often imprisoned, she predicted the forthcoming First World War and argued that workers should rise in a general strike to prevent it. When war came, the SDP struck a no-strike deal; Luxemburg organised anti-war demonstrations and split from them to form Die Internationale, which evolved into the Spartacist League. She contributed to illegal anti-war pamphlets, was imprisoned again and following her 1918 release was seized by Germany’s Freikorps and shot. Her body was thrown in a Berlin canal.<br />Despite the raw material, Diterzi’s creation is no po-faced litany, but instead a vital body of music and lyrics that engage with the subject as though its ebb and flow was positive, uplifting even. She had been approached by Argentinean stage director Marcial Di Fonzo Bo with the idea of a show based around Luxemburg after he had seen her on stage. He’d been impressed with her full-on approach and, equally, she has engaged head on with his idea, creating ‘Rosa La Rouge’.<br />The album opens with a chorale, glitchy sounds and birds tweeting – ‘L’Eglise’. It sets the scene for the remarkable ‘Je Touche La Masse’, where a Luxemburg speech is pitched against almost-R&amp;B electro that could be Britney Spears circa ‘Toxic’. Diterzi partially sings in English (very rare that) and insinuates Arabic-style melody lines (a typical touch – beautifully realised on ‘Tableau De Chasse’ as well). As ‘Rosa La Rouge’ unfolds, it’s obvious Diterzi isn’t on a lecturing trip. The title track’s Russian-sounding chorus mixes with her treated, squeaky voice and upbeat electronics. Yet, ‘L’Arme, A Gauche’ is a virtually straight balled with a yearning and affecting melody, and lyrics that evoke the idealism behind the idea of forming a people’s army. ‘Aux Marches Du Palais’ plays with light opera – another typical Diterzi touch. She’s previously recast musics from the past: ‘A Geboux’ from the 2005 album ‘Boucle’ could have been sped-up Arletty.<br />Heard without any concept of how this extraordinary music might be staged, the album stands on its own: accessible, but imbued with meaning. ‘Rosa La Rouge’ is a remarkable creation by a unique artist.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

In the Mahavishnu Orchestra, that debt was obvious; on Love Devotion Surrender, with Carlos Santana, the pair covered its title theme. McLaughlin even paid direct homage to the saxophonist on 1995’s After the Rain, which featured not only Coltrane’s material, but drummer Elvin Jones as well. With his group the 4th Dimension -- Gary Husband on keyboards and occasional drums; Mark Mondesir on drums; and Cameroonian bassist Etienne M'Bappé --McLaughlin explores an electric jazz that is deeply and directly indebted to Coltrane’s modal music and lyric interplay, and also to the emotional and spiritual aspects of the saxophonist’s expressions. On set opener “Discovery,” carefully chosen keyboard modes drive McLaughlin’s attack around a melodic statement without actually succumbing to a specifically agreed-upon theme. Likewise Husband’s piano solo, which uses the middle and high registers, and offers arpeggios and ostinatos around his own articulation of the modes, playing right into them the way McCoy Tyner would. Guitar and keyboards go head to head later in the track to breathtaking result. “Special Beings,” by contrast is a lithe, shimmering, melodic ballad that actually swings. The bass playing by M'Bappé, while understated, here creates a sense of motion underscored by the double-timed light touch of Mondesir. “Recovery” employs Husband on drums and keyboards with Mondesir on additional percussion. This is a triple-timed workout for the band with inspiring bass work by M’Bappe. McLaughlin’s guitar work moves from taut, speedy, knotty fusion to emotional soloing. The band engages in rhythmic counterpoint, scalar interplay, and funky asides while remaining poignantly focused on “singing” together, rather than just expertly riffing around one another. The set contains some moody ballad work as well, in “Lost and Found" and the closing title track where McLaughlin uses his guitar synth, but the playing is soulful and communicative, not just cosmic and atmospheric. To the One is an inspired milestone for McLaughlin and a fine recorded introduction to one of the more exciting electric jazz groups in the 4th Dimension.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

This band is in the top of the Dutch metal scene with their complex yet grooving and melodic metal approach. 2008 brings their third release Silhouettes, according to the band their most accessible album so far.<br />Well about the accessible part they’re a 100% right. They’ve also stated that this record isn’t that much revolving around a concept, but more aimed at the songs individually, which is definitely true. What I hear is a way more grooving, slightly less complex yet very rhythmic metal band which can both be listened to very intensively as well as on the background. The production is very smooth on all fronts just like with the previous record Drawing Circles. The biggest improvements come from the samples and keyboards which have more different dimensions and sound, as well as from the vocals. Vocalist Eric Kalsbeek has exceeded himself again on all fronts. Especially his singing voice has really improved and become more versatile, as the bio states he sounds like a mixture of Devin Townsend and Phil Anselmo, I can relate to that. You really can’t find a better metal vocalist in this little country I think personally.<br />Although I feel like overall Drawing Circles made a bigger impression on me than Silhouettes, I think the latter takes more time to really grow on you. Since it goes by so smoothly, you might miss the little things here and there which become more apparent over time. Well it is obvious what to conclude I’d say; Textures has once again delivered a product of high quality which is bound to please all fans of their previous albums and most people into modern rhythmic metal for sure!</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

On the follow-up album, 2000's ASTRAKAN CAFE, he again explores a trio approach, this time with Barbaros Erkose on clarinet and Lassad Hosni on percussion. Brahem has been acquainted with these two musicians for a long time, first recording with Hosni nearly 30 years ago, and previously collaborating with Erkose on the 1992 ECM album "Conte de l'incroyable Amour". Their rapport is cool and confident, and they work towards intensity in the music more through their total force of collaboration than the showy performance of any individual musician.<br />The disc opens with "Aube rouge a Grozny", where Erkose's soft clarinet floats for a full minute before Hosni enters on a simple drum line. Brahem makes his appearance with the second track, "Astrakan cafe", where his solo oud playing is accompanied only by some gentle murmurming. The full trio then perform for the first time on "The Mozdok's Train" and continue with "Blue Jewels", "Nihawend Lunga", "Ashkabad" and "Halfaouine". "Parfum de gitane", positioned halfway through the album, marks the trio's finest hour. A complex track, it ranges through moods ranging from contemplativeness to passion. The second half of the album features the Brahem solo performance "Khotan", the duet between Brahem and Hosni "Dar es Salam", and a thrilling ending where the trio as a whole reprise "Astrakan cafe".<br />Somewhat unusually for ECM, the liner notes contain a commentary on the album, written by Paolo Scarnecchia.<br />I think this disc will appeal to a very wide audience. Fans of European jazz will of course love it, but it will please those looking for ambient stylings as well. Indeed, for people who want chillout music but are wasting their time with dross like Thievery Corporation, this is a likely to satisfy but offer a much richer experience. If I award it less than five stars, it is only because Erkose's clarinet can sometimes be too smooth, the same complaint I had about Surman's saxophone on THIMAR. Would that Brahem work with a performer with a slightly more aggressive style. Nonetheless, this album is recommended.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Planes EP and compliments it with a brilliant handle on composition and musicianship. The result: an truly excellent album that satisfies cerebral and physical sonic cravings. The explosive dynamic between loud and soft is still an integral part of Ativin's methodology, but on German Water, volume changes are utilized more as elements of a song/sound rather than just for shock value. "Modern Gang Reader" begins at a snail's pace, but by song's end, the jagged double-guitar attack of Dan Burton and Chris Carothers has sandblasted away the song's earlier low-key inklings.<br />In the gently zooming, futuristic march "Stations," drummer Rory Leitch steadies the pace as a lone riff repeats in the background. From nowhere, guitars burst into an enveloping riff that might be the most ear-pleasing, head-nodding passage the band has yet penned. From the skipping, treated guitar pleasure of "Fortune Telling Fish" to the epic "Meeting With The Center Of The Earth," German Water is an inspiring collection of forward-looking rock.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Feeling like nothing goes your way? Maybe your life is unfair, and everyone else treats you like crap? Well finally things are turning around – My Own Private Alaska (MOPA) has just the music for you! Classical piano, muscle-bound jazz drumming, and throat rending screams combine to eleven bleak songs that will sing your depressed soul to sleep.<br />My Own Private Alaska is another French experimental export, and this trio nails their philosophy on life over and over again. More about the lyrical content and overall feeling of despair than the actual component parts, MOPA creates songs that are just barren of any positivity at all. Album opener “Anchorage” sees a lilting piano line convert into a frenzied drum and piano combo with frantic yells, screams, and complaints over it. And this is the positive song on the album. “After You” starts with an interesting groove, but soon descends into the same cacophonous morass as all the others.<br />The individual performances are noteworthy, however. Pianist Tristan Mocquet alternates between pretty scales and spaced-out chord progressions. Drummer Yohan Hennequin follows suit, seamlessly moving between jazzy feather drumming and more a-rhythmic poundings. And vocalist Matthieu “Milka” Miegeville sounds like he is five minutes from slitting his wrists the entire time. These three take their intense individual performances and combine together to form an awful message of despair.<br />This isn’t the run of the mill black metal despair either – this is true self-mutilation despair. The songs are mostly about unrequited or undeserved love, loneliness, and the sad state of the world in general. My Own Private Alaska offers glimmers of hope through momentary beauty or synchronized grooves, but always return to the noise-and-bang of their depressive wailing.<br />The media press kit says “French innovators MOPA (My Own Private Alaska) might be the band to save rock and roll.” Well they probably are innovators, but when I think rock and roll, Chuck Berry and The Rolling Stones come to mind, not sobbing-in-the-bathtub noise laments. The music itself is complex, challenging, and interesting, and definitely worth multiple listens for the musically inclined. But the overwhelming depression can’t be escaped, and makes the whole album a huge downer. If you are feeling particularly down one day, or enjoy things that are depressing in general, than My Own Private Alaska is for you. Otherwise stick to Blind Guardian.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Anchorage 5:41<br />2. After You 4:13<br />3. Die for Me 5:50<br />4. Broken Army 5:47<br />5.

In my opinion the group and production is sometimes a bit tighter than the PEOPLE recordings with JB at the helm (even more imaginative at times) though the absence of JB's groans and grunts and direction are definitely missing... that said the rhythm section no doubt is as tight as tight gets, I think a noticable difference is that the horns are a lot more together, while the rhythm section maybe a bit (just a bit) looser (more relaxed?) than on the JB recordings... still tight and sticky in the Tower of Power sense of the word... however, a bit Jazzy too.<br />All in all this great in and out of print recording is well worth having... Today Maceo stands on his own as a leader, but back then he was definitely JB's ever faithful sideman... and this album is one of the first times the serious question was ever asked... could Maceo make it on his own without JB? (In answer to the question, All The King's Men would eventually fall apart and he'd go back... Maceo would eventually join the P-Funk organization, but it wouldn't be until about 20 years that he was able to stand stage center and do his thing... the irony being that the entire roots of his sound of today can be heard on this album just as good and fresh.)<br />If you like this album be sure to read Fred Wesley's bio - - some great behind the scenes stories about the whole sound, era and experience!</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

While the band's earlier efforts perfected a more traditional brand of country-rock, their fourth record is marvelously eclectic, both musically and emotionally; never before had they rocked as hard as on "Real Light," dug as painfully deep as on "Two Hearts," or hit quite the same peaks of exuberance as on "Miss Williams' Guitar," a tribute to Olson's new wife, neo-folkie Victoria Williams. The addition of keyboardist Karen Grotberg brings rich new layers to the Jayhawks' sound, as does the inclusion of a string section on cuts like "Blue" and "I'd Run Away," a soaring pop song that's quite possibly the best thing the group ever recorded. A fitting legacy especially with the bonuses of this Legacy Edition consisting mostly of acoustic demos which allow us to appreciate the band's skills even more.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1</strong><br />1.

The Eternal is Sonic Youth's first album for legendary indie label Matador Records after a nearly 20-year stint with Geffen Records, which dovetails nicely with the fact that this is also the band's first album with former Pavement bassist (and Matador alum) Mark Ibold. Sonic Youth even changed their usual songwriting approach, writing and recording tracks in quick batches instead of planning an entire song cycle at once. Dust wasn't allowed to settle on these songs, nor could it -- the most striking thing about The Eternal is how hard it rocks. The contemplative haze that drifted over Murray Street, Sonic Nurse, and to a lesser extent Rather Ripped is blasted away by opening track "Sacred Trickster"'s lunging, massive guitars and Kim Gordon's demand to be pressed up against an amp. The rest of the band sounds revitalized, too: Lee Ranaldo's excellent "What We Know" is a furious yet complex rocker, and Thurston Moore sounds like the leader of the gang on "Thunderclap for Bobby Pyn," which name-drops the Heaven's Gate cult and the alias of Germs singer Darby Crash between its "whoa-oh" and "yeah yeah"-fueled choruses. This is the heaviest Sonic Youth have been since Sister, and it's fitting that their return to the indie world touches on their SST days. That's not the only era they revisit, however. "Poison Arrow"'s skronky grind evokes Dirty's sexier moments; "Antenna"'s radio love turns Murray Street's sun-streaked drones into epic pop; and "Calming the Snake"'s tumbling, atonal riffing suggests summery menace as much as it does Sonic Youth's no wave roots.<br />While there's a little bit of almost everything that has made Sonic Youth great over the years, the band hasn't put these elements together in precisely this way before. Considering how expansive their last few albums for Geffen were, The Eternal's relatively concise songs also set it apart, but when Sonic Youth do stretch out, it's with purpose. "Anti-Orgasm" begins as a duet/duel between Gordon and Moore, who trade challenges and come-ons over free-falling guitars that become a rolling, slow-motion excursion; the track's instrumental interplay is more violent, and more sensual, than its words. "Massage the History" is even more vast, encompassing fragile acoustic strumming, distortion storms, and dead calm over its nearly ten-minute expanse. While The Eternal doesn't flow quite as effortlessly as some Sonic Youth albums, it's perfectly balanced, its raw moments tempered by the subtle "Walkin Blue" and "Malibu Gas Station," which creeps so imperceptibly toward its raging guitars that they're almost unnoticed until you're caught in their undercurrent. Sonic Youth's freedom to follow their bliss is what holds The Eternal together; just as paradoxically, the changes they make on this album not only bring excitement to their music, they reaffirm just how consistently good the band has been -- and continues to be -- over the years.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

These pinnacles of violinistic virtuosity are obviously important to him, for he has now recorded them again, for Onyx, with equal brilliance but more thoughtfulness. Yet his new version has to compete with Thomas Zehetmair's more dynamic (if marginally less polished) account, which has appeared almost simultaneously. While there is little to choose between the two violinists in technical terms, Zehetmair conveys an urgency and a spontaneity that aren't on Ehnes's agenda. Not only are Zehetmair's tempos faster - he takes 67 minutes over the set to Ehnes's 78 - but he introduces an extra element of fantasy to his performance by adding embellishments of his own to the already fiendishly difficult violin writing.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

It's not to say Jane only recorded songs by the great Serge Gainsbourg, they obviously constitute the core of the album with 13 songs on the 21 displayed here (whether they were originally recorded by Jane or Serge or some other artist). Of course, she gives an heartfelt and faithful rendition of the man's material. True, she's helped by the intimate setting (mostly strings and piano) her musicians create. The rest of the songs - composed with artists such as Hawksley Workman, Alain Souchon, etc. - fits the bill nicely bringing something new to her usual repertoire. Some would argue Jane Birkin is not a great vocalist, you won't see me denying this fact but it's her lack of technical skills which make her voice so fragile and delightful and since she's able to convey emotions through it, there's no reason not to enjoy this charming live album.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Great songs, great playing, great production. Apparently, though, there was an unspoken question in the minds of their critics and maybe even in the minds of their fans; could these guys actually play like this? Or did they just splice a bunch of parts together in the production booth to provide the impression that they could play these parts? Well, Yes didn't really like having their chops questioned (I guess), and they wanted to settle the question once and for all. And so, they did the logical thing; they released a live album.<br />Now, the main disadvantage of the album, let's face it, is the length. As far as I know, they included every single song from their stage set on this album, and as a result this sucker is a triple album well over two hours in length (though this hugeness is muted nowadays given that it fits comfortably into two CDs). Also, the emphasis is clearly on the epics, and even the songs that were originally 'short' (i.e. less than ten minutes) are often expanded greatly. There's also the issue of sound quality; it doesn't bother me as much as it once did, but there's little question that it's on par with that of a typical bootleg.<br />BUT, let's face it, there is simply no getting around how good these songs are. The playing is FEROCIOUS and tight, and possibly even better than in the originals. Plus, there are enough changes in the songs to keep them fresh (although the structure basically remains the same). In addition, each of the band-members gets a solo-section, which might be considered slightly tacky (if you're cynical) but are all well performed. Rick Wakeman throws in excerpts from his then-new solo career, Bruford gets a decent (though not exceptional) drum solo, Squire extends "The Fish" into ten-minutes of monstrous bass-riffage, and Howe graces us with a runthrough of "Mood For A Day" (not to mention his excellent solo in "Yours is No Disgrace").<br />As for the songs, there's not really any point in going through all of them one at a time, since for the most part they are done fairly similarly to the originals. Well, sort of - structurally and in essence, they're mostly the same as before, but there are enough changes to keep the songs sounding fresh this time around. "And You And I" receives the most noticable change - the quiet acoustic opening is replaced with an immediate display of the gargantuan "Eclipse" section, and while I'm not thrilled with that development, the track doesn't sound worse for it. But there are other subtlties - for instance, the opening section of "CTTE" is significantly reworked, with Howe playing faster and more aggressively than ever before.<br />The main reason to get this album, though, is for the last two tracks. "Yours is No Disgrace" is simply a Howe extravaganza, as he plays at break-neck speed while also hardening up his guitar tone in a way not found elsewhere on the album. And of course, there's "Starship Trooper," which simply defies all description in its incredible energy and entertainment value. "Würm" boasts power and blazing solos from both Howe and Wakeman, to the extent that one could easily call this the DEFINITIVE live Yes performance. Yessongs, excessive as it may be, is necessary if only for this.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1<br /></strong>1.

But DR DREAM turned out to be a different kettle of fish.<br />The A-Side contains as perfect a sequence of songs as you can imagine. 'Day by Day', the funky opener (with superb backing vocals by Doris Troy and other soul singers), is followed by a brief (but philosophical!) acoustic mini-song, which leads straight into the album's rocking tour de force, "Didn't feel lonely till I thought of you", one of Kevin's all-time classics, with fiery lead guitar by Ollie Halsall. Poetic relief is then provided by a dreamy blues song with a terribly long title (typically Ayers) and with a crystalline guitar solo by Mike Oldfield. I'm not an Oldfield nut, but I guarantee all prog freaks that this superb solo alone warrants purchase of the album. The best is yet to come, though, for Ayers (almost) concludes the A-side with a souped-up version of his signature tune, "Why are we sleeping?", the original of which can be found on the Soft Machine's debut album. Utterly bombastic, by turns scary, furious and funny, this track contains a louche night club interlude (with sax provided by Lol Coxhill) and a grandiose church organ-driven climax. To reduce the horror, and send the listener to bed with a smile, Ayers has it all followed up with the brief but unforgettable "Ballbearing blues".<br />It's on the B-side, however, that the nightmare really begins. Intertwined acoustic guitars, eerie sound effects, Michael Ratledge's fuzz organ and Nico's spooky vocals dominate the first section in a multi-movement suite that can be interpreted as a warning against the self-delusion of young lovers, the dangers involved in taking too many drugs, or both. The middle section of this suite is dominated by some delightfully jazzy electric piano, and the final riff is so dark, long drawn-out and menacing that it will haunt you for days. But once again, Kevin refuses to leave the listener with a curse, and he concludes the album with "Two goes into four", one of his loveliest acoustic ballads.<br />Anyone interested in the Canterbury Scene, or in British psychedelic rock, will find this album invaluable. Everyone else will find it an excellent addition to their collection. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Day by Day 3:52<br />2. See You Later 0:28<br />3.

They've been chugging out pummeling, riff-heavy rock music for the better part of the last 30 years, and they show no sign of stopping soon. This was their 8th full length offering, Orgasmatron, and it's exactly what you'd expect from these dinosaurs of rock - Lemmy Kilmister's charismatic gritty snarl layered over a jubilantly energetic bucketful of grooving hard rock riffs and juicy, luscious classic metal solos. Motörhead have always stuck to this formula, and it's a much-needed breath of fresh air when you consider the ridiculous levels that some bands take their "progressions" to these days. People always cite repetition as a drawback to music, but that is a flawed generalization - this, while sticking to the same formula throughout, kicks a lot of ass.<br />Every song here is very good, with the best probably being the title track, which is a slower, grinding number with cool lyrics and an excellent groove, with a vocal performance that will send chills down your spine, followed closely by the opening ass-stomper "Deaf Forever," which will never come out of your head, no matter how much you try. "The Claw" is another awesome song, pretty typical for Motörhead, except with a better chorus then usual, and perhaps a bit more speed too. But fuck, every single track smokes, and this is the album you want to put on for a good time. This is the same formula they've always used, and why mess with success? Who really needs a bunch of flashy bells-and-whistles "progressions" to such a great Metal backbone in the first place? Orgasmatron rocks, and Motörhead rocks, and if you just want something that rocks without any semblance of pretension or artistry, then turn to this. That's all that needs to be said.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Deaf Forever 4:25<br />2. Nothing Up My Sleeve 3:11<br />3. Ain't My Crime 3:42<br />4.

Over an illustrious career of inspiring Bret Easton Ellis titles he’s also attempted opera, punk, jazz and soul. He can be forgiven then for making two consecutive studio albums which stick to a core of country and Americana. To focus on the trappings (and the list of "respected" players) however, is to miss the point. Whatever the stylings, the crux of Costello remains his songs, voice and words. It’s these which have enabled him to survive dips over decades, and avoid stagnation. His blatant craving to be identified within the Great American Songbook has also helped him to float above fashion. Last year’s Secret, Profane &amp; Sugarcane sold much more strongly in the US than in the UK, and this is effectively its sequel.<br />Like its predecessor, it was produced by T Bone Burnett in Nashville in under a fortnight. Musicians include recurring cohorts The Impostors and The Sugarcanes, plus cameos by Vince Gill, Marc Ribot, Buddy Miller and Leon Russell. Inevitably then, it’s "rootsy", with all the lap-steel that entails. It never works magic with such elements the way Robert Plant seems able to, but it’s a solid, generally impressive hour.<br />It suggests topical themes of deprivation and bankruptcy, but the lyrics play fast and loose, often digressing into standard, if dark, love ballads. The title song rages at Wall Street, a little foggily. Indeed several songs chug by placidly, hamstrung by Burnett’s generic tropes. Stations of the Cross is the first number to entice and enthral, with some of the broodiness of Pills and Soap. It breaks the rut, and the album then ascends and transcends through Five Small Words and Church Underground: Costello at his best, the music freeing up his unique voice rather than turning him into any old bar-room bluesman. (The nadir is Russell’s My Lovely Jezebel, which could be Cliff fronting Status Quo.)<br />Then he’ll sing something as literate and brutal/wounded as All These Strangers and remind you of his gimlet eye and keen ear. So, while it’s no Costello classic, this repays patience.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

The strategy worked, resulting in the group's first number one album and in "Caroline," its first top-five single. Mostly, the album succeeds in spite of itself. "Roll Over Lay Down," not immediately impressive, builds into a tizzy over the course of five minutes. It is one-upped by "Caroline," the definitive Status Quo rock song, a not particularly hard or fast four-on-the-floor stomp saved by a massive, deceptively simple guitar hook. "Forty-Five Hundred Times," less catchy but harder rocking, is brutally long, but is rescued by its placement as the album's closer. In between, the group, writing in some instances with coordinator Robert Young, offer up slight variations of their standard formula. Several of those, like the rickety, Beatlesque "Claudie" and the bluesy "Softer Ride" transcend their three-chords-and-a-riff construction enough to render them decent, memorable pop songs. Down to the proto-Spinal Tap black-on-black cover, this was the vanguard of British denim rock in 1975, and given the narrow conceptual and technical limits within which the Status Quo had to work, it has held up well, though it is certainly not for the faint of heart or attention span. Clearly the product of a band at their commercial and creative peak, Hello! wears its strengths and weaknesses well: not particularly flashy or intelligent, but without exception confident, comfortable and fun.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

The album sounds as if it was deliberately written for theatre; and theatre it indeed is. Like a soundtrack to an avant-garde play, it unfolds its beauty via seven tracks, and takes the listener on a journey into a joyous yet slightly dark and fantastically twisted French cabaret. Only Moon And Moon is not French, but a New-York based assembly of talented musicians that had joined together and spilled into this recording not only their talent, but also their guts and wildest imagination.<br />The album's concept are the pains and tribulations of a certain king who goes through a process of soul-searching and spiritual journey of sorts, in order to become a better man, or something like that. Each track opens with a short speech by a young girl and then suddenly, boom! An eruption of sounds and colors: A great vocalist opens with his heartfelt and diverse voice — alternating between almost military speeches and beautiful, pitch-shifting dramatic singing — a voice that is the backbone of the recording.<br />Traditional rock as well as jazz instruments, a gigantic rhythm section and a million tiny other sounds shower down soon after, creating an exotic style of jazz-oriented, dark post-rock of the highest order.<br />Ultimately, the arrangements are what makes this album tick. Moon And Moon utilizes a mammoth amount of instruments, vocalists and musicians to record this intricate album; the thing is, they know EXACTLY where to place each and every instrument — no matter how exotic or alien it sounds — how to arrange the instruments flawlessly and how to make the whole grand operation work, in perfect harmony. VII Acts of an Iron King is a complex, exotic, and alien. If you like the work of Mothlite on their incredibly good album The Flax of Reverie (reviewed on Maelstrom as well), you will enjoy VII Acts of an Iron King, and then some.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

After The Original Soundtrack which proved to be a commercial breakthrough, because of the single I´m not in Love, 10CC were eager to follow up the succes and How Dare You proves to be a worthy follow up to The Original Soundtrack. In fact I think How Dare You is a better and much more entertaining album than The Original Soundtrack.<br />The album starts with the instrumental title track which is actually very enjoyable. It´s not because it´s complex or challenging, but more because of the melodic qualities and the superb production. Other great tracks would be I Wanna Rule the World, I'm Mandy, Fly Me, Iceberg and Art for Art's Sake. The latter with an actual hard rock riff. I´ll make sure not to forget the intricate and beautifully crafted Don't Hang Up. The feature I enjoy the most about 10CC´s music is there vocals though. Beautiful mulitlayered vocals and intricate vocal lines means that every song is quite the experience even though the basic formula is vers chorus. Commercial music like this couldn´t have survived on a prog site without intricate instrumentation though and there are lots of exciting instrumental parts. They don´t stand alone most of the time though but are generally played while the vocals dominate. One thing I shouldn´t forget when reviewing this album is the great humour that 10CC is known for. These lyrics are very cleverly written and sometimes reminds me of the biting sarcasm of Frank Zappa.<br />The musicianship is outstanding. Everything flows easily even though 10CC play some pretty challenging things underneath the commercial exteriour of the songs.<br />The production is otherworldly. 10CC simply had some of the best productions of the seventies.<br />How Dare You is a very good album and it actually reminds me a bit about my favorite 10CC album Sheet Music. At least it sounds closer to that one than to The Original Soundtrack IMO. I think How Dare You is an above average album and I´ll rate it 4 small stars. Recommendable to people into commercial music with a twist. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. How Dare You 4:15<br />2. Lazy Ways 4:23<br />3.

Brown offers some suggestions on Soul on Top, which finds the Godfather of Soul making an intriguing detour into jazz-minded big-band territory. Recorded in 1969 and reissued on CD in 2004, Soul on Top unites Brown with the Basie-influenced orchestra of jazz drummer Louie Bellson -- and stylistically, the results are somewhere between soul-funk and the funkier side of big-band jazz. This Brown/Bellson collaboration isn't straight-ahead jazz; nor is it typical of Brown's late-'60s output. But if recording a big-band project with Bellson was a surprising and unexpected thing for the Godfather of Soul to do in 1969, it was hardly illogical or bizarre -- Brown, after all, grew up listening to jazz (as well as blues and gospel) and was well aware of the legacies of Basie, Lionel Hampton, Duke Ellington, and others. Besides, jazz and R&amp;B are closely related. While some jazz snobs would have listeners believe that jazz and R&amp;B have little if anything in common, the fact is that they're close relatives that get much of their energy and feeling from the blues. So it makes perfect sense for Brown to combine soul, funk, and jazz on this album, which finds him revisiting some major hits (including "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" and "It's a Man's Man's Man's World") in addition to embracing "September Song," "That's My Desire," and other standards that one typically associates with jazz and traditional pop. Although not among the Godfather's better-known efforts, this fine album is happily recommended to anyone who holds R&amp;B and jazz in equally high regard. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Unlike his earlier material, however, Tokumaru has now dropped the sounds of melancholy he presumably performed to show how difficult and taxing it was to manufacture such abstract world spaces. Port Entropy, if it can be described simply, is a celebration. Gone are the gloomy and introspective tracks lamenting the hostility of our adult reality. In their place is an album that is almost all bright colors and vibrancy. At times, this sunny outlook can be too much to bear.<br />There are two things that a listener first coming to Shugo will recognize immediately: (1) he’s singing in Japanese and (2) there are a whole lot of instruments being played. Tokumaru is a multi-instrumentalist and part of the appeal of listening to him is knowing that he is responsible for every sound you hear. Whether Tokumaru has enlisted the help of others for this album, this reviewer knows not (there’s a distinct crispness in the instrumentation that makes me think it’s possible he has brought in others to record at least some of the album parts—but he’s a Japanese artist with no American PR company and little is known about the man, so it’s anyone’s guess). Regardless, there’s still a ton of different instruments here—literally dozens—everything from little bells to wooden blocks and toy pianos. The overall effect of this variety, when combined with Shugo’s Japanese lyrics, is an general sound of otherness; an aesthetic that is foreign and different above all else. In the past, Shugo had presented his foreignness with conditions, essentially saying that his work was different, that he was sad about his isolation from the typical and conventional, and that if you wanted to join him as an outsider then you’d have to experience with him the sadness of being an outsider. That sadness that marked much of Shugo’s first three albums is entirely absent on Port Entropy.<br />On album standouts “Lahaha” and “Rum Hee,” Shugo’s guitar confidently leads both tracks in bouncing melodies that start quick and climax big. A bright flute and high-key piano line thrust forward on “Lahaha” as Tokumaru weaves together melodic lyrics and a strong guitar. With “Rum Hee,” Tokumaru tries his hand at a lowercase “a” anthem, belting out an infectious “Rum Hee—Rum Hee—Rum—Hee” while the many sounds of the song coalesce together around an invigorating climax. On album closer “Malerina,” Shugo shoots his voice through a processor and goes island-chic, dropping a head-nodding guitar line over a well-paced collection of percussion knocks. The album’s successes feel like victory laps; all positivity and big smiles. And because the lyrics are foreign, there’s no way to tell of Tokumaru’s intent beyond the overall mood of the sound itself. When Tokumaru scales himself back, as he does on the shuffle-footing “Suisha”, the slow parts, now sans-sadness, lose their emotional bite. Without the high-energy that’s present in his anthems and faster-pace songs, the slower tracks feel like pulse-less space fillers.<br />It’s nice to see that Tokumaru has shaken what seemed like guilt about trying to make a playful world filled with as many toy-instruments as possible. It’s unfortunate, however, that he has removed much of the emotional content that made his previous albums so rewarding on repeat listens. Like encountering a service industry professional with a well-practiced smile, you wonder in a way what kind of feelings are at work behind such a crafted presentation of happiness. Hopefully Shugo will invite us to explore this question with him on his next album.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Platform 0:44<br />2.

The only problem is that those lyrics were written by Folds’ ex-wife Anna Goodman. It’s the kind of unintended, villain-free slight that’s song fodder for Folds, who’s forever on the prowl for fresh targets to rebuke. Lonely Avenue, the geeky dream mash-up of lyrics by the author of High Fidelity and tunes by the perpetually pissed-off pianist, is unsurprisingly chock-a-block with character studies, but they often sink their venom into abstractions instead of specific people (“Picture Window”), or are at least willing to look beyond punchline potential in their search for poignancy (“Levi Johnston’s Blues”). “Some guy on the Net thinks I suck and he should know / He’s got his own blog” from “A Working Day” is certainly bald enough to be a Folds broadside, but it abandons its tuneful gurgle before the barbs can really sink in, and “From Above” busily ruminates on the lives of a couple who would have been perfect for each other if only time and circumstance hadn’t intervened. More sweet than cynical on this outing, Folds and Hornby are perfectly complementary as a pair of smart-asses with sentimental sides.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />1.

In its own right however, Hergest Ridge stands up as a fine piece of work.<br />Generally smoother and more continuous than TB, Oldfield manages to compile an album with a similar structure but which sounds quite different. The most striking part of the album comes about five minutes into the second side, when the almost ambient soft melody stops, to immediately be replaced by an absolute wall of sound. The pace is lifted by a driving, incessant rhythm, which thunders along like a train barely remaining on the tracks. This occupies much of the second side of the album, and transforms it completely. A more serene sound returns to close the album, allowing the required catching of breath.<br />A very good album, generally somewhat mellower than Tubular Bells, but with a real sting in the tail.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Jumping from composition to improvisation so seamlessly that it is often impossible to tell what is what, this is some of the craziest music he has ever created.

The proper heirs to the majesty of Accept, the band's crunchy guitar set aside the musical landmark that is Chris Boltendahl's vocal performance has placed Grave Digger constantly one step ahead in the metal industry.<br />Being obviously a concept album, 'Tunes Of War' does not emphasize on a certain character or certain string of relatively close events, but instead features almost 700 years of Scottish history. The tracks tell the story of the battles of Carham, Largs, Flodden Field and Culloden in chronological order, and while this presents little relevance musically, the characters portrayed do. The legendary William Wallace, is preceded in song by a short harmonic guitar intro, after which his constant fear of not living up to his followers' expectations is brought in through the use of a strong choral performance.<br />As its title suggests 'The Ballad Of Mary (Queen Of Scots)', is a balladic retrospective on Scotland's most beloved female figure, Queen Mary I. The vocals are executed quite out-of-style for Grave Digger outside the rough voice spectrum we are all used to, in an almost entirely acoustic piece. The most honorable mention here, and a taste of what was to come, is keyboardist HP Katzenburg's interference, creating a symphonic piece worthy of no other.<br />The Jacobite Rebellion quickly comes into play with perhaps the most well-known track off of this album 'Rebellion (The Clans Are Marching)'. After a short acoustic intro, and an inspiring chant, the song comes into full gear and features what is in my opinion, Grave Digger's most neck-break-speed guitar-work so far! While bagpipes in rock'n'roll are not something previously unheard of, i mean who can forget AC/DC's 'It's A Long Way To The Top', it immediately becomes obvious this album would not be complete without the use of the traditional Scottish instrument.<br />The battle of Culloden is 'the end of Scotland' and as such, 'Culloden Muir' is sung from the perspective of a doomed warrior, with desperation absolutely obvious in the vocals at one point.<br />Definitely a piece to which i, for one, cannot find a flaw,'Tunes Of War' is Grave Digger's strongest work yet, which proves that a band that reunites after a relatively long hiatus is not doomed to obscure releases that only die-hards would buy and that reaching out to new generations is quite possible.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Their style is at once heavy and airy, deep and elegant. Their harmonies and melodies are both beyond measure. Their defining song is "Satta Massagana," the unofficial anthem for the Rastafarian faith. Following that legendary tune is a daunting task, but Arise does it pretty darn well. While the songwriting is not of the caliber of the material on the immaculate collection Satta Massagana, the cool-yet-emotional, holy-yet-funky pure roots sound is the same. Tracks like "Wicked Man," "South African Enlistment," and "Jah Loves" (a Rastafarian take on the jazz standard "Nature Boy") could easily fit on Satta. And while you'd be tempted to say that cuts like "Meditation," "Hey You," "Mightiest of All," and "Let My Days Be Long" would be weak links on Satta, it's somewhat unfair to view everything in the shadow of that album; there's little doubt that these are solid, solid album cuts that display the power of the mighty Abyssinians.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Wholly dominated by the mystical and strangely charismatic lead singer and songwriter Joseph Hill, Culture has always dealt in simple (some would say simplistic) and yet absurdly catchy melodies, astringent harmonies and lyrics of the very dreadest character -- very few love songs, very few party songs, just lots and lots of dire warnings issued to Babylon and its fellow travellers. Although the band is most commonly praised for its work with producer Joe Gibbs (most notably the stone classic Two Sevens Clash album), many the tracks Culture recorded under the supervision of Sonia Pottinger are every bit as good, and Cumbolo includes ten of the best of those. Just about every song here counts as a highlight, but "Natty Never Get Weary," "Poor Jah People," and a charming adaptation of "This Train" are all particularly good. And the backup is provided by a shifting contingent of Jamaica's studio aristocracy that includes Sly &amp; Robbie, Ansel Collins, and "Deadly" Headley Bennett, among other luminaries. Highly recommended.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. They Never Love In This Time 4:40<br />2. Innocent Blood 5:43<br />3. Cumbolo 3:59<br />4.

Although the group was composed of adept musicians, the likes of bassist Lloyd Parks and drummer Sly Dunbar were brought in to assist, adding further gloss to the group's already-stellar sound. Producer Prince Tony Robinson showcased the trio and their songs to the very best advantage and picked wisely amongst the possible inclusions to create the most sumptuous of sets that really did offer something for everyone. For the international set there were two fine Wailers covers to highlight the similarities between lead singer Albert Griffiths' vocals and Bob Marley's own. "Soul Rebel" is, if anything, heavier than the original, while "Rude Boy Ska" is even more militant, yet still awash in gorgeous melody and the trio's lovely harmonies.<br />Jamaicans were equally impressed by the group's updates of two of the Gladiators' own songs, including a new version of their smash 1968 debut "Hello Carol" and "Bongo Red," recut in scorching, militant style as "Mix Up." But if those impressed, the new numbers overwhelmed. The most fiercesome was "Hearsay," a vehement assault on gossips; "Chatty Chatty Mouth" contrarily rounds not on rumor-mongerers but boasters; however, the Gladiators take satisfaction that Jah will give him and his ilk their come-uppance. The flowery keyboards imbue "Chatty" with a Studio One aura, although this is a new number, while equally delectable is the exhilarating "Eli Eli," a bouncy unity number. Elsewhere, "Looks Is Deceiving" talks in parables, as Albert Griffiths brilliantly reinvents a series of old adages. The rest of the album comprises a trio of masterful cultural numbers. "Thief in the Night" harkens back to the early days of reggae, with its strident beats and aggressive riffs, its theme an equally vigorous warning of Jah's wrath. When the band began work on this album, many believed that man's final days were nearing, be it Armageddon itself or civil war, and "Know Yourself Mankind" gives voice to the seething turmoil of the time, while "Bellyfull" reflects the suffering and unsettled conditions causing turmoil in the ghettos. Throughout this set the musicianship is superb, the vocals fabulous, the arrangements sublime, while the songs are filled variously with rich atmospheres, fierce rhythms, sweet melodies, or easygoing riffs as required. Everything about this set is masterful, and it remains a classic, one that Gladiators fans have consistently returned to over the years.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Producer Tommy Cowan took special care with this record and insured that the all-star cast never overwhelmed the vocalists. This was a real danger, as Israel Vibrations were far from the most powerful of singers. Other vocal groups of the day could easily hold their own in the midst of the deepest roots and dub, but the Vibes needed sympathetic arrangements to best showcase their unique sound. In fact, it was their very vocal vulnerability that was the trio's appeal. The almost reedy quality of the Vibes' singing, the feeling that they were struggling just to gather the strength to even reach this paltry level of vocal thrust, was part of the charm. The group's actual physical disabilities just made their stylings all the more poignant. It was Same Song's Rastafarian themes and the trio's obvious religious devotion which made this such a cultural classic, even if the album doesn't have that almost melancholy quality of the Abyssinians, nor the righteousness and fire of Burning Spear or Black Uhuru. Instead, the Vibes brought an almost child-like quality to roots, a naïveté hither unknown in what was otherwise a streetwise genre. The very simplicity and straightforwardness of the lyrics reinforces this feeling. The Vibes message of "Why Worry" sums up their personal philosophy of finding answers, hope, and salvation through prayer. The title track, a real charmer and hit to boot, insists that "we're all going to sing the same song," but their fervid delivery gives even this seeming platitude real power. Even when presented with the brutality of life, as on "Licks and Kicks," the album's only true political song, the trio still attribute the violence that inspired the song to Jah's will. One comes away from the album convinced that the trio have entrusted themselves to Jah, and, with that, all of life's complexities have fallen away. The meek shall inherit the earth, the Bible states, but as the Vibes prove, the meek aren't necessarily voiceless victims, and even the meekest amongst them can, in the right setting, be the loudest. Same Song is a shout of belief, so heartfelt, as to quiet all else around it.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

What does is this 2011 series of remastered editions of their back catalog (album 1 to 10, the remaining 5 in the fall). Though it's not as spectacular as the Beatles' equivalent, it's a huge improvement on the previously available cd editions. The various bonuses are not as juicy as one could expect, not that it matters that much with remasters of that quality. Finally, in 2011, we can get rid of our old and tired vinyls and listen to Queen on cd the way we always were supposed to. Trust me, the music's even better like this.</div><br /><div align="center"><span style="color:#006600;"><strong>[#947]</strong></span><a href="https://rapidshare.com/files/1777279069/QQR11.rar"><span style="color:#006600;"><strong><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632310739296689810" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-79Pcs6VBvgQ/Tin8xrBlnpI/AAAAAAAADZM/vTnKo951eJo/s200/queen.png" /></strong></span></a><strong><span style="color:#cc0000;">Queen<br />(1973)<br /></span></strong><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="color:#000099;">Time: 79:43<br /></span><strong>Disc 1</strong><br />1.

Cardioid doesn't disappoint nor does it really surprise the listener. A logical follow-up to his first album, it shows Nucci delivering more of his heartfelt brand of folk pop. There are a few eccentricities though, for example Lady in Black definitely displays a Beatles influence that was hardly noticeable on his debut, or Breathe In in which Nucci fiddles pretty damn convincingly with oriental influences and even Pink Floyd on the delightful Monkey's Evolution. By these tiny additions to his sound, Yodelice has managed to release an album which will please both those who wanted him to stay right on the same path and those who wished for something a tad more varied. Not many artists are capable of reconciling both sides like Nucci did on what will probably be one of the best french albums of 2011.<br />PS: Those who've seen Guillaume Canet's Little White Lies should remember Maxim singing in it. And those who haven't yet seen this heartbreaking tragicomedy should really consider viewing it.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Breathe In 5:44<br />2.

"Woman Cactus," "Silly Fool," and "Think It Over" are catchy synth pop at best, yet for the most part charmless, dated, and disposable. Then, frustratingly, comes a triple whammy of three of their most memorable songs. Legend has it that Stars on 45 producer Jaap Eggermont pushed the band into adopting a more commercial approach on Adieu, Sweet Bahnhof, although he is only credited as engineer. Yet that at least would explain the blitzkrieg of brittle pop pastiche that opens the album and the solid gold nuggets you have to rummage around for. "Mask," the first such nugget, is another of those slow-burning ballads like "Dapper Street," on which Henk Hofstede summons his best Elvis Costello croon, bolstered by a satisfyingly abrasive brass section. The bandmembers were never happy with the recording, however, and reworked the song in a spellbinding new arrangement with the Amsterdam Saxophone Quartet for the 1989 live album Urk. In fact, reservations about the production extend to much of the album, which sounds muddy, drowned in reverb, and heavy on the analog synths. No amount of technical shortcomings could sabotage the title track, though. It's a delightfully wistful Parisian waltz with a refrain that still gets audiences joining in over 20 years later. Hofstede's "The Tender Trap" is the album's last classic, a widescreen vignette of romance gone wrong with a stately brass arrangement and an overarching melody. Though the album eventually fizzles out, there are still three more fine songs to come in the form of Robert Jan Stips' "Poor Man's Pound," Michiel Peters' "The Infant King," and Hofstede's "Vah Hollanda Seni Seni." This latter is a rare venture into the world of social comment for the Nits, with its depiction of racism as seen through the eyes of a Turkish immigrant girl.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

How dare she play with our memories? How dare she use Auto-Tune on the chorus vocal? "Butchered" and "almost unforgivable" cried the fansites. But as Bon Iver and Sufjan Stevens have already shown, Auto-Tune – a pitch-shifting tool typically used to mask defects – can also be used for beauty. It’s not as if Bush’s own vocal was altered. Instead, it’s just the song’s computer voice, which now resembles 2001: A Space Odyssey’s HAL 9000 rather than a demo on a kid’s Casio. A bonus two-minute coda of Talk Talk-style folk-jazz floatiness extends the mood of blissful angst. Butchered? More like reborn.<br />The problem is less that Bush’s new album consists of old songs than the fact she’s only released one album of new ones in 18 years. She’s had the urge to tinker before, sprucing up Wuthering Heights for her 1986 greatest hits, The Whole Story. All the vocals and drums on Director’s Cut – totalling four tracks from 1989’s The Sensual World, seven from 1993’s The Red Shoes – are new; if such a term existed, you could say the overall execution has been to ‘de-80s-fy’ the originals. Gone are the gated drums, the keyboard presets, the Synclavier washes; in comes a softer, golden glow. Minus the choc-box orchestra (plus subtly altered lyrics), the rest of Moments of Pleasure emerges into the light, shaded by a solemn choir. Rubberband Girl, which in context sounds like a knees-up down her local boozer, comes over like the work of a totally different band (weirdly, that band is now The Rolling Stones).<br />The Sensual World’s title-track, now re-named Flower of the Mountain and borrowing Molly Bloom’s soliloquy from James Joyce’s novel Ulysses as Bush intended (she was originally denied permission), is another major alteration. Yet, musically, it’s rather more cosmetic. Just as Bush sounds in great voice – richer, bolder, brighter, wiser – so the re-cast Lily and The Red Shoes’ title-track follow suit, but they’re hardly re-inventions. As much as it’s fascinating to hear Bush the Elder look back at Bush the Younger, is the tinkering worth a full album? Yes, because it’s a sign Bush the Artist is still alive (she’s working on new songs too) and Director’s Cut (a less prosaic title would have been nice) is a gorgeous body of work. No, because it’s writer’s block by any other name. No, because it’s not radical enough a move. But if Deeper Understanding raised hackles, imagine if Kate had gone dubstep or collaborated with Odd Future. World wars have broken out over less. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1</strong><br />1. Flower Of The Mountain 5:15<br />2.

Ochs had grown by leaps and bounds as a performer in the space between the two albums, and where Phil sometimes sounded a bit clumsy and uncertain on his first LP, here he brims with confidence, and his guitar work -- simple but forceful and efficient -- didn't require another musician's sweetening as it did on All the News. Most importantly, while Ochs' songwriting was uneven but compelling in his first collection, I Ain't Marching Anymore finds him in consistently strong form throughout. The craft and the emotional weight of the material makes even the most dated material ("Draft Dodger Rag" and "Here's to the State of Mississippi") effective today, and a surprising number of the songs remain as potent (and sadly timely) today as in 1965, especially "Iron Maiden" and "That's What I Want to Hear." And if there are fewer jokes on this set, "Draft Dodger Rag" is funnier than anything on Phil's first album, and his cover of Ewan MacColl's "Ballad of the Carpenter" (as well as his adaptation of Alfred Noyes' "The Highwayman") revealed what a strong interpretive performer he could be. (His liner notes are pretty good, too; it's a shame he didn't write more prose.) Literally dozens of singer/songwriters jumped on the protest bandwagon after the success of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez, but one would be hard-pressed to name one who made an album that works as well almost four decades later as I Ain't Marching Anymore.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Gloss Drop, its newest delivery, deftly cements such an impression.<br />The band’s full length debut, 2007′s Mirrored, was one of the year’s most sterling releases. Vocalist Tyondai Braxton’s heady performance made for one of those truly unique experiences. Backed by Dave Konopka, John Stanier and Ian Williams, Braxton summoned both subtlety and bluster. At times quiet and others fiery, Braxton’s vocals would prove a good foil to a sound that hinted at diverse relations, be they the best of indie rock or the most inviting electronica.<br />A vocalist’s resignation has been the death knell for many a band. And when Braxton departed Battles to pursue a solo career, a conclusion could reasonably be expected. Not that Battles has ever been a lead-dependent act — its complicated sound in Mirrored integrated vocals as almost another element to a Molotov cocktail of combustible materials. However, when a collective has a distinct voice, losing it is often the beginning of the end.<br />Gloss Drop is Battles’ reclamation of that Molotov cocktail of tone and din, and a statement of persistence. If Braxton is missed, Battles makes it clear in this commanding release that it isn’t going away quietly.<br />From the opener, “Africastle,” Battles continues to push the margins of its influences in a recording that seems effortless as it is intricate. You get the sense on instrumental tracks like it, “Futura” and “Wall Street,” among others, that Battles seems comfortable making slightly off-kilter rock/pop, never to be touched by mainstream culture though just a hair’s breadth from being embraced by same. It’s a delightful contradiction at times, to make music that its simultaneously friendly while being seemingly exclusive. However, Battles does it in a way that never seems condescending. The group’s penchant for experimentation — think: the world music hints throughout Gloss Drop typified in “Dominican Fade” and the orchestral build of “White Electric” — is often inviting while eluding the expected. Tantalizing? Definitely.<br />The new release is further energized by a series of creatively selected collaborators. Gary Numan, electronic music pioneer and he of the 1979 hit “Cars,” gives a spellbinding performance on “My Machines.” Criminally underappreciated for decades, Numan has, since the aughts, found a new generation to embrace what was once, when he self-sabotaged by declaring love for Margaret Thatcher in the culturally resistant 1980s’ UK, a tarnished legacy. On “Ice Cream,” Battles puts forth a churning rhythm for Chilean vocalist and producer Matias Aguayo that makes those aforementioned world music connections all the stronger. Kazu Makino, Blonde Redhead’s always impressive lead, brings her slinky voice to “Sweetie &amp; Shag.” While Battles does not really replace Braxton — questions of a potential future replacement seem to hang out there for future recordings — complimentary vocal choices add to Gloss Drop in a heavenly fashion.<br />The recording concludes its journey in “Sundome,” a stunning collaboration with one of the undisputed kings of noise rock by way of Japan, Yamantaka Eye of the Boredoms. Though that act started with the abrasive blast of recordings like Pop Tatari and Chocolate Synthesizer, the artist often referred to as simply Eye as well as the Boredoms settled into an ambient, almost ethereal groove in later releases. Such plaintive rhythms come across gorgeously in Gloss Drop‘s closer. Here, Eye’s understated vocals seems to pick up where the last Boredoms’ releases left off.<br />Where the progression of Gloss Drop takes Battles long term is going to be perplexing, but regular listeners as well as new fans won’t be disappointed.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Understandably, it was quite a challenge to come up with a successor to the commercially and artistically successful Artificial Animals Riding on Neverland. This time was not spent crafting a brand new sound or something as AaRON returns with pretty much the same "piano rock" formula, something not sounding too different fron Coldplay or Keane but with a distinct, folkier side which makes the difference. Ho, sure, Birds in the Storm will not shake the foundations of todays's pop music but this is a damn good album with pleasant melodies and clever arrangements, something you don't come across everyday.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

One of the attractions of the group’s music is its nursery-rhyme tenderness – sailors, animals and people are described in dreamlike, childish fashion in the space of twelve songs – added to their delicate approach of using pure, simple tunes that hit home.<br />The album’s sound is reminiscent of the late Elliott Smith, or even Scott Walker, both of them brilliant composers who have never been so present as in the orchestration of this new Cocoon creation. The piano has now found its place, even though the harmonic formula hasn’t basically altered: two voices that interweave almost right to the end.<br />The hedonistic melody of Dee doo (perhaps in admiration for Arcade Fire?) fleshes out just a little more thanks to the rich arrangements of piano, violin and trumpet. The songs are often simple and organic: life close to nature, bad memories buried deep under a blanket of snow, a teasing crowd of aquatic animals, and a stream of metaphors to describe a rudderless human race. The movie-like beauty of Oh my god plunges us into a “cocooned” world of slick narration and blurred atmospheres. A perfect album for those in search of musical adventure in a water wonderland.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Sushi 3:22<br />2. Comets 2:57<br />3.

The dissonant diminished scale melodies driven by odd-metered rhythms sound similar to mid-70s King Crimson. The freer jazzy sections sound a bit like Soft Machine on their 3rd or 4th album, other sections reflect early fusion artists such as Chick Corea or Brian Auger. The big difference is that this album is driven by sonic texture changes that help push the music forward thanks to the pioneering production work of Brian Eno.<br />Eno is the most valuable player on this recording. His production skills were ahead of the game at this point making the music a constant shifting kaleidoscope of sound, his "treatments" help the strong melodic developments of Manzanera shift smoothly from one idea to the next.<br />Two songs stand apart from the others. One of those is R.F.D. by keyboardist Dave Jarrett. This is a beautiful piece of impressionism in the style of Ravel with understated electronic keyboards more similar to 60s lounge interpretations of classical music rather than rock. The other is Rongwrong that features drummer Charles Hayward in a Robert Wyatt style wandering avant-pop song, unfortunately Hayward doesn't have Wyatt's cool jazzy voice. Too bad this is the only release by this amazing band, it would have been nice to hear more.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Sol Caliente 7:35<br />2.

For the most, this is music to be felt more than thought. Good simple songs about good simple things, to tap a toe to, drink a beer to, wipe away a tear to.<br />On the other hand, though, when you step back and consider the context, A Treasure becomes more than just a collection of countrified tunes delivered with gloriously ragged enthusiasm. This album is the sound Neil Young makes when you push him.<br />These recordings date directly from the period when Young, infamously, stood about to be sued by his own record company, Geffen, for wilfully making “musically uncharacteristic” records. The troubles commenced with his baffling, vocoder-led ’82 label debut, Trans, but really blew up over his intended ’83 follow-up, the Nashville-recorded Old Ways (not to be confused with the drastically reworked album of that title eventually released in ’85).<br />When Geffen rejected that for being “too country” and asked for something “more rock’n’roll,” Young’s answering fuck-you came in two parts. First, he greased his hair into a parody quiff and handed them an ersatz ’50s rockabilly LP, Everybody’s Rockin’. Then, without his label’s backing, he gathered the best country band he could, and hit the road to play the countriest songs for the countriest audiences in the countriest venues possible. Most of A Treasure was recorded away from the regular rock circuit, at state fairs, rodeo arenas and on country TV shows. This, folks, is what happens when you tell Neil Young not to play country music. He goes and plays it.<br />The plainly gorgeous, Harvest Moon-y opener, “Amber Jean”, one of five previously unreleased songs, sets the tone. Written for Young’s newborn daughter, it’s a daddy singing to his baby about all the good things that await her. The order of the day is family values, love, home, work, but the band play with rare fire, and the singer has this strange glint in his eye. After hearing the tearing version of “Are You Ready For The Country” preserved here, in fact, it’s difficult to return to the song’s Harvest incarnation without finding it wanting and weedy; the International Harvesters cut roils with joyful venom reminiscent of Young’s Time Fades Away era. Equally, a frayed reprise of “Flying On The Ground Is Wrong” is plausibly more exquisitely sweet than Buffalo Springfield’s original. But, on the whole, there’s no long-haired weirdo stuff. No llamas, spacemen or Aztecs, no tired-eyed drug deaths, no Nixon, no students getting shot. The closest to ‘protest’ is the slightly ugly “Motor City”, where the protest is that there are too many damn Japanese cars on American streets. And when it comes you can hear the baited, recession-hit crowd baying agreement.<br />And here’s where, back in the mid-1980s, it got difficult for Neil Young fans. While playing these hootin’ and a-hollerin’ shows, Farmer Young was also suddenly praising Reagan and, notoriously during AIDS’ first grip, using homophobic language in interview. Never mind that country’s high lonesome end had always been an essential part of his DNA. For some, all this combined was like watching the man who sang “Ohio” jump tracks to join forces with the rednecks who blew Captain America away at the end of Easy Rider.<br />As often with Young, what the hell was actually going on remains hard to fathom. It could be that, after Geffen trying to force him one way, he’d just swung out in the other direction, like a wrecking ball. Listening back 26 years on, though, the question fades. It’s the music that you hear. Clearest of all that, in The International Harvesters, Young had found a band that fired him up like few outfits outside Crazy Horse. Those buying the Blu-Ray version of A Treasure will also see visual evidence, in a shaky collection of live footage.<br />Young’s guitar is here, of course, but cedes ground to blind pianist Hargus “Pig” Robbins and, particularly, Rufus Thibodeaux’s show-stealing fiddle. Their interplay on a reworking of “Southern Pacific”, Young yelling final announcements like a demented Casey Jones, blows the neutered version Crazy Horse recorded for Re-ac-tor clear off the tracks. Strangest of all, though, is how straight and lifeless the re-recorded Old Ways album Young finally cut with these guys sounds compared to their live shows.<br />If you want to quibble, you could bemoan the decision to make this a cut-up compilation, with songs drawn from different concerts, rather than a straight document of one night. Equally, among the unreleased tracks, I would gladly have ditched three – “Soul Of A Woman”, a slightly plodding big blues vamp that points in a direction Young would explore with The Bluenotes; the comedy country-by-numbers “Let Your Fingers Do The Walking”; and the slightly cloying “Nothing Is Perfect” – to make room for another not included, “Interstate,” one of Young’s most desolate lost songs, which found its definitive shape with the Harvesters.<br />Warts, ugly cousins, blazes of greatness and all, however, A Treasure makes a perfect snapshot of this ornery, shapeshifting moment. Certainly, there’s no arguing with the other unreleased song, “Grey Riders”, a spooked, weird run through “Ghost Riders In The Sky” territory, cannily sequenced as the closing track, and not merely because the Harvesters shift to a new pitch of intensity. Here, as though he can hold it back no longer, Young’s guitar begins wrenching loose in mangled, restless, rusty squeals. You could call it the “classic Neil Young” sound, if there was such a thing. But as the howl comes slicing through, it sends out a clear signal. Things were about to change. Again.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Amber Jean 3:17<br />2.

This package contains the original, studio-concocted Miles Davis set that Miller mostly composed. There's also a previously unreleased gig from that year's Nice Jazz festival, delivered by a powerful octet including the late Bob Berg on tenor sax. As liner-note writer Ashley Kahn points out, I made an about-turn over this music in the 80s, from first doubting it as bland funk to reconsidering it as late-flowering Miles, creativity galvanised by Miller's input. But more importantly, Kahn's fine essay offers insights into Miller's assessment that producing finished studio tracks for Miles to blow on didn't work: you had to leave them as rougher sonic sketches and let his improvising bring them to life. The original Tutu is essential for admirers of the trumpeter's late work who don't already own it, but the live show includes some anonymous non-Tutu material and too much down-the-line rock-blues guitar from Robben Ford, and despite robust tenor-blowing from Berg and an affecting (and startlingly early-jazzy) trumpet solo on New Blues, this isn't the kind of live Miles show that makes you wish you'd been there – unlike much of the music on his 1973-91 Montreux festival box set. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc One<br /></strong><span style="color:#006600;">Album</span><br />1.

Catch a Fire (Deluxe Edition) actually goes one better -- issuing the original as well as a non-overdubbed (aka "Jamaican") version of the album. Disc one contains the latter version -- which has been previously unissued until this point. It also tends to overshadow the brilliant sonic restoration done on the standard issue -- featured on disc two. The early "Jamaican version" of Catch a Fire consists of the album as it was first delivered to Chris Blackwell -- talent scout/owner/operator of Island Records. While pleased with the results, Blackwell convinced Marley &amp; the Wailers that sonic enhancements might be in order. The "Jamaican version" was then remixed with added lead guitar work by Nashville cat Wayne Perkins, as well as various keyboards textures from John "Rabbit" Bundrick. The ironic thing is that the changes and augmentations made by the session pros ultimately suppressed the organic and otherwise uncomplicated nature of Marley &amp; the Wailers music. This very quality became the thing that propelled Marley -- and ultimately his message -- globally as well as spiritually, allowing him to join the ranks of John Lennon, Bob Dylan, and Marvin Gaye. Also included on the "Jamaican version" are two additional tracks: "High Tide or Low Tide" and "All Day All Night" recorded for inclusion on the original Catch a Fire. While they have been released in various forms over the years, they have been returned to their place in the Catch a Fire running order. The second disc contains Catch a Fire the way it was originally issued. While not as historically significant, it has never sounded better. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:85%;">Disc 1<br /></span></strong><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="color:#006600;">Jamaican Version<br /></span>1.

The album shows the original three at their best, balancing lead vocals on several songs between Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer, and Peter Tosh. The album not only serves to further reveal Bob's soon-to-be legendary work, but also to show the talent of Bunny Wailer with his lead vocals on songs like "Hallelujah Time" and "Pass It On".<br />The album also shows Tosh taking lead with Marley on "One Foundation" and alongside Marley on "Get Up, Stand Up". The album's biggest gem, however, was "I Shot the Sheriff," soon to be made a favorite in the U.S. and the U.K. by rock artist Eric Clapton on his 1974 "451 Ocean Boulevard" album.<br />The deluxe edition also features a concert from the tour in Leeds, U.K. just one week before the Wailers broke up. (Bunny, however, was already absent, having refused to tour outside of Jamaica once and for all earlier that year. His temporary replacement,the Wailers' old vocal coach, Joe Higgs was also absent, quitting the tour after they completed their shows in the U.S.) 1973's "Burnin'" shows the original Wailers at their very best before their breakup and is a timeless classic for music fans everywhere, I can guarentee it.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1<br /></strong>1.

This album would be the album that would finally push, and forever keep reggae in the mainstream of music in the U.S.<br />The album is laden with hits, from the joyous "Positive Vibration," and the danceable "Roots, Rock, Reggae," to the enigmatic and powerful "Crazy Baldhead," and the anti-racism statement "War". Each song is a Marley classic and an essential to any collection. The alternate mixes and the rare bonus track, "Jah Live" are all amazing. The second disc, contains a concert from the U.S. "Rastaman Vibration" tour at the Roxy in Hollywood in May. The second disc also includes two bonus tracks, the delightful "Smile Jamaica," and a remix of it, both recorded after the sessions for the main album.<br />This album is sure to delight any listener and is crucial to every Marley or reggae collection.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1<br /></strong>1.

But if you are not convinced buy it and you will be for sure. This album was released in 1977, and was recorded in London England. Bob Marley and members of the band survived an attempted assination in December of 1976, and went into self imposed exile in London. Here the creativity of the band is quite good, and many of the Songs that you know by Bob Marley and the Wailers appear on this disc. Jamming, Exodus, One Love, Three Little Birds, and Waiting In Vain. All the tracks are great on this disc and you can hear for the first time in all of the Wailers recordings that the quality of the recording equipment here is much better. The dummer's (Carlton Barrett) high hat never came through so clear. This album marks the intro of Junior Marvin (lead guitar)to the band. The band was about to gain superstar status and this album marks the beginning.<br />The second disc features some live tracks from the 1977 tour and the songs slected for the release happen to be from the 1977 Rainbow theater concerts, which will also be availble on dvd very soon. The live performances really come through and prove that the band has a tremendous vibe live and that while in concert they most certainly bring their best. the Lee Perry tracks are rather rare and are very nice to listen to. the booklet that comes with the cd can provide more insight into them and how they came to be, but just know that it is not the Wailers backing Bob on them, rather musicians from other bands. At the end is a Bob Marley promotion of the album for radio which is really nice to hear. If you are questioning yourself about this set or the single disc edition, this set offers a more diverse selection, and the bonus tracks and bonus disc are really a great addition tot he album of the century.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Disc 1</strong><br />1.

After being embraced by the club scene in the early ‘90s, Callier regained the confidence he needed to come out of retirement. Shortly after, he was picked up by a fellow soulful folkie and down-tempo electronic audience advocate, Beth Orton, for her 1997 EP, Best Bit, and Callier found comfort in a new generation of musicians.<br />With his latest recording, Hidden Conversations, Callier decided to wholeheartedly embrace his younger generation of supporters and put a good deal of creative forces in their hands. Massive Attack’s Robert Del Naja is the mastermind behind the beats for 3 of the recordings, truly accenting Callier’s soulful voice with a world full of eerie, noir-style beats. The reason this collaboration is so favorable to success is that it was never highlighted as something Del Naja took over. This is still Terry Callier’s show, and it’s not one of those shock factor comeback albums with a bunch of young, hot shot producer collaborators. Callier has been in the game for four decades, staying dedicated to his art, developing it at a slow and steady pace along the way.<br />With that said, pulling Del Naja along for the ride is no small feat. Most producers save their best work for their pet projects, giving their second-rate material to side projects, but Hidden Conversations is a labor of love, and some of the best work Del Naja has done within or out of Massive Attack in recent years. The intro track, “Wings” is easily the heaviest hitter on the album, featuring a sluggish trip-hop banger drenched with an ambience of pads and a gorgeous, minimal chord progression on the Rhodes. Callier delivers with the confidence of the Last Poets during his spoken word bit, and sings with a vibrato that only a true veteran can carry. The other Del Naja co-written track, “John Lee Hooker”, is a diversion from his normal electronic-based production into something more traditional. Still carrying the same overall feel into a more guitar-driven sound, this is an exploration of trip-hop in a more organic environment—something groups like Zero 7 and Cinematic Orchestra have championed in recent years.<br />Although Del Naja brings a vibrant addition to Hidden Conversations, the biggest surprise on the album is Callier’s solo writing. The admiration and technique comes full circle, while Callier takes on the sound of down-tempo mixed with a minimalist electronic edge that will gladly appeal to ‘90s trip-hop heads. In particular, the last song on the recording, “Jessie and Alice”, is the perfect blend of Callier’s slow, blissed-out acoustic guitar strumming drenched in a lo-fi reverb, among the glitchy, subtle soul-jazz beat. On “Fool Me Fool You”, Callier goes back to his days as a prophetic voice in the Windy City, speaking spoken-word with authority and clarity that many of today’s hip-hop emcees are incapable of approaching. He brings the focus back to simplicity and repetition in getting your message across, something many of hip-hop’s elder statesmen would help impart to a younger generation of emcee as one of the most important elements of the genre.<br />While Callier has always somewhat defied genre classification, he really takes it to the next level here. Using his experience as a veteran soul singer and underground folk legend, he has been making strides to make his voice heard during his second run as a performing artist. While 2005’s Lookin’ Out was a near-perfect visit to the past, Hidden Conversations is the most profound, forward-thinking record Callier has put out since his flawless run in the early ‘70s with What Color Is Love? and I Just Can’t Help Myself.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Scott Weiland, brothers Robert DeLeo &amp; Dean DeLeo and Eric Kretz have put out some classic songs with STP since 1992. These classic songs can mostly be found interspersed among their first 3 releases going all the way back to Core.<br />Interestingly, none of STP's previous 5 releases--especially the latter two--No. 4 and Shangri-La Dee Da--could be called an album that has great songs from start to finish. With an average of 10+ songs per disk, STP typically would have between 1 and 5 songs that really stood out and made each disk worth the purchase. On this self titled 2010 release EVERY song is good. So in that respect shouldn't I have given this a 5-star 'classic' rating?<br />Well, no. The difference is that while every song on this disk is good where you don't feel the need to skip over any of the songs, there really aren't big standouts (you know, like Sex Type Thing, Vasoline or Trippin on a Hole in a Paper Heart). I mean, I am tremendously enjoying this disk, but I see a future where I will soon tire of it and perhaps not be compelled to keep any of the songs in my media player's random rotation.<br />The first 4 songs are very STP. When you hear these songs you'll say, "Wow, that is STP and they are back!" Like on many of STP's latter career tunes, you can hear The Beatles and Led Zep influences mixed in with STP's own unique sound on this disk. There are even three songs that sound like 3 separate generations of David Bowie sat in on...you'll know 'em when you hear 'em; I think that this is STP's first disk where the Bowie influence was so loud and clear.<br />But again...no big standouts. Why is that? Perhaps the missing element is the camaraderie that makes all great bands...well...great. In an interview on The Howard Stern Show during May 2010, the boys admitted that the album was not really recorded as a band...or should I say that Weiland recorded his vocals in sessions outside of where the band recorded their parts. That's not very "bandlike".<br />Overall, like I said, the entire disk is really good.

A new direction and an overhauled musical vocabulary (gone was the growly bass and the organ, in came futuristic keyboard sounds, odd time signatures, intricate arrangements and extended instrumental passages) The Raven--as perennially acknowledged by the band's large and dutifully black-garbed cult following--is The Stranglers magnum opus.<br />From the epic title-track--a questing, valorous Norse saga adorned by Dave Greenfield's wuthering Artic synths and sung in breathless fashion by JJ Burnel--to the quirky prog-rock science of "Genetix" (on which former biochemist Hugh Cornwell got to show-off his knowledge of pioneering 19th-century Austrian geneticist Gregor Mendel). The Raven was--and remains--enthrallingly fresh, musically daring and downright ominous. Paranoia abounds--there's the grimly pretty (but rather hypocritical) anti-heroin lament "Don't Bring Harry" and the helium-inhaling vocal freakiness of "Meninblack", a portentous slab of psychedelic lethargy detailing the existence of a black-suited extraterrestrial mafia. But there's pop too--"Duchess" and the doleful "Baroque Bordello", a song almost compassionate and empathic compared to the leerier lyricisations of old. The Raven is The Stranglers' finest achievement.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Longships 1:10<br />2.

In 2005, along with vintage soul legends like Irma Thomas and Billy Preston, he guested on Joe Henry’s I Believe To My Soul compilation. Later that year, his New Orleans home was flooded during Hurricane Katrina, forcing him to become a temporary New Yorker. Two more Henry-produced albums soon followed – Our New Orleans, a benefit album for the devastated Gulf Coast, and The River In Reverse with long-time admirer Elvis Costello. All the while, Toussaint toured the world, earning warm welcomes from audiences wherever he played.<br />That applause will only grow louder with the release of The Bright Mississippi. It’s quite simply one of the best albums we’ll hear in 2009.<br />Remarkably, given Toussaint’s long involvement with New Orleans R’n’B, soul and funk (from Professor Longhair through to LaBelle and beyond), here he focuses on a strand of the city’s musical heritage that he has previously left untouched – jazz. Although pride of place goes to songs associated with New Orleans favorites Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet, Jelly Roll Morton and King Oliver, the album goes beyond them with nods to Bix Beiderbecke, Django Reinhardt, Ellington and Monk. To do justice to such a list, Toussaint is joined by a stellar band including Don Byron on clarinet, Nicholas Payton on trumpet (his dad, Walter, played bass on Toussaint’s production of Lee Dorsey’s “Working In A Coalmine”), Marc Ribot on guitar and special guest appearances by Joshua Redman and Brad Mehldau. The rhythm section of David Piltch on bass, Jay Bellerose on drums and Toussaint’s piano provide rhythmic verve old classics without ever sounding like second-line strut.<br />These versions pay homage without obsessing about period authenticity. So, the opening version of Bechet’s “Egyptian Fantasy,” in which Byron and Payton trade soaring solos, sounds suitably authentic. In a similar vein, on Morton’s “Winin’ Boy Blues,” the piano duet of Toussaint and Mehldau complement each other and mesh beautifully; the only anachronism comes when Toussaint slips in a jaunty quote from his ’50s composition “Java” (as covered by Al Hirt). Great fun.<br />In a diversion from prior Toussaint albums, only one of the 12 tracks here features his vocals – “Long Long Journey,” with lyrics by Leonard Feather. Pop psychologists will have a field day with Toussaint’s impassioned delivery of couplets such as “Sometimes I feel so weary / travelling through life alone” or – given his seeming post-Katrina fascination with rivers – ”When the river stops flowing / and the trees lay down and die.” Yes, the hurricane hit a lot of people hard.<br />On an album where every track is a gem, the two Ellington tracks, “Day Dream” and “Solitude,” stand out, both perfectly capturing the air of melancholy that is distinctive to the Duke. Monk’s “Bright Mississippi” also deserves special mention. The title track is more upbeat than Monk intended, with Bellerose pushing it along and Toussaint using it as a showcase for his buoyant piano style. So matched are pianist and composer that I can only hope that Joe Henry’s next brainwave will be an entire album of Toussaint playing Monk. And even then, I can’t imagine it matching the class and the charm of The Bright Mississippi.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Egyptian Fantasy 4:39<br />2.

Tempos are exaggerated a bit, but not annoyingly so, and sonics are solid without being dressed up. Versions of "Nobody's Hero," "Alternative Ulster," "Wasted Life," "Tin Soldiers," and the show-ending "Suspect Device" are exciting; the band is tight, rage-on loud and utterly captivating. The crowd sounds like a big one, attesting to Stiff Little Fingers' success in both the charts and in the shops, but there is nothing cloying or dodgy here; it's all just in your face SLF-brand melodic punk rock, with stiletto sharp hooks, in-the-red guitars and Jake Burns' bleeding snarl above the din. The 2005 version apes the British versions of 2001 and includes the same bonus tracks -- "Running Bear," "White Christmas," and the third part of the Burns interview with Alan Parker -- the first two are on Inflammable Material and Nobody's Heroes.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Unlike 2007's mini-album Live and Rare, which patched together performances from MCR's fall 2006/winter 2007 dates in the U.K. and Europe, The Black Parade Is Dead! is a lavish CD/DVD affair chronicling two performances: the CD captures the band's October 7, 2007, Mexico City date -- their last as the Black Parade -- while the DVD features video of that show as well as their October 24, 2007, date at Maxwell's in their home state of New Jersey. The Black Parade Is Dead!'s grandiosity is only fitting, considering how elaborate The Black Parade was, and also fittingly, the Mexico City show is a song-for-song performance of that album -- the only difference is "The Black Parade Is Dead," where Gerard Way announces to the audience that this is "the last performance of The Black Parade forever!" As on The Black Parade, the highlights happen when My Chemical Romance make these songs about death sound especially lively and theatrical. "Dead!" sounds especially searing, the satirical strut of "Teenagers" has an extra swagger, and the vaudevillian unnamed fan favorite closing track -- now known as "Blood" -- has an even more mischievous spring in its step, while hearing the audience sing back the words to "Welcome to the Black Parade" and "Mama" adds to their resonance. The Maxwell's date, which the band played to a very limited crowd of about 200 or so fans, draws just over half its set list from The Black Parade but also touches on Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge peaks like "Helena," "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)," and "Thank You for the Venom." Even if it seems thorough to the point of being overdone, The Black Parade Is Dead! is a completely appropriate -- and fan-pleasing -- final nail in The Black Parade's coffin.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Despite his already poetic, intensely personal lyrics, Lynott was only beginning to develop as a songwriter, and the band's unfocused, folk-infused early efforts are a far cry from their mid-'70s hard rock glory. Recorded on a shoestring budget, their self-titled debut is surprisingly mellow; many songs, such as "Clifton Grange Hotel" and "The Friendly Ranger of Clontarf Castle," sound confused and unfinished. Quiet ballads like "Honesty Is No Excuse," "Eire," and "Saga of the Ageing Orphan" abound, while supposed rockers such as "Ray-Gun" and "Return of the Farmer's Son" fall remarkably flat. In fact, Lizzy only bare their claws on "Look What the Wind Blew In," a gutsy rocker that hints at things to come. Four bonus tracks (originally released as singles) were added to this CD reissue, and of these "Things Ain't Working Out Down at the Farm" is quite memorable, while the mournful "Dublin" contains Lynott's first great lyrics. Not Lizzy's best but still a must hear for any fan and 70s rock enthusiast.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. The Friendly Ranger At Clontarf Castle 3:02<br />2.

Again, songwriting was divided between Hofstede, Peters, and newcomer Stips, and again Hofstede established himself as an inspired melodist with the dramatically orchestrated "Sketches of Spain" and the wryly nostalgic "Dapper Street" -- a remarkably beautiful song that would now surely be acknowledged as a classic if only it had had the name Elvis Costello attached to it. Unlike Omsk, however, this time the contributions of Peters and Stips measure up to their leader's. Peters' "Bild Am Sonntag (As Usual)," with its tick-tock rhythm underpinning one of the band's rare forays into vocal harmony, is a dreamily ominous song about small-town boredom turning sour. Stips' "Memories Are New (III)" has a languid South American feel buoyed by nylon guitars, vibraphones, and rippling piano, and is only let down by Stips' rather colorless vocals. Oddly, though, it's Hofstede who supplies Kilo's weakest track, the closing "Your Next Tyres," which sounds like a leftover from the band's self-consciously quirky period. The band's production throughout is lush and spacious, with Stips' distinctive multi-layered keyboards providing the illusion of a much bigger band without ever lapsing into the kind of synthesized overkill that makes so many recordings from the early '80s so easy to date and hard to listen to. [Kilo was reissued on CD as a two-fer with the 1986 album Henk.]<br />Henk was the first album to be recorded by the Nits as a three-piece following the traumatic departure of Michiel Peters, yet it found them in an unexpectedly playful mood. From the eccentric openers "Bike in Head" and "Port of Amsterdam," it was clear that the bandmembers were once more in control of their own destiny and would have no truck with pleas to emphasize their more commercially viable songs. "Bike in Head," for instance, deploys samples of bicycle bells and includes the lyric "I just bought an elephant today," while "Port of Amsterdam" is a rambunctious drinking song in which Hofstede's voice is subjected to all manner of wacky electronic distortion. But for all its often wilful eccentricity, Henk does contain a core of enduring songs that marry the band's pop sensibility with its more experimental tendencies. On the first, "Typist of Candy," Hofstede's touching, double-tracked voice recalls the Everly Brothers, though any retro intent is canceled by a beguiling climax featuring Robert Jan Stips' fairground keyboards and what sounds like someone tap dancing on a typewriter. "Home Before Dark" is an altogether more somber affair, the album's single foray into understatement and one whose directness and simplicity foreshadow Henk's successor, In the Dutch Mountains. "Sleep (What Happens to Your Eyes)" survives a tricky synth arrangement to become one of the Nits' most persuasive blends of melody and electronica, while the irresistible "Cabins" sets Philip Glass to a four-square beat. Too much of the rest, however, is quirky in a bad way. More than once, you suspect Stips and his fancy new sampling equipment were allowed to run riot, dressing up already slender songs with eldritch noises that began to date as soon as the record hit the shops. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

The group's strongest songs -- "Changes," "Can You See Me," "Look in the Sky" -- appear here, much of it in the vein of Cream and Jimi Hendrix. Keaggy is an amazing guitarist with innovative playing techniques and an ear for texture and tone color, while Sferra stands out as the strongest writer of the group.

After seeing punk dissovle into New Wave, they tried to keep up with the trend without totally compromising their original punk sound. But after witnessing their lush experiment with 1980's "End of the Century" go wrong, the Ramones had a hard time finding their place. The following year's "Pleasant Dreams," and "Subterranean Jungle" didn't capture the attention the Ramones hoped that they would garner. This is a shame.<br />"Subterranean Jungle" -- in a word -- rocks. I would place it in the same CD juke-box rack with popular hard rock acts such as Green Day, Blink 182, Rancid, and Sum41, and it would not sound out-of-place. The guitar sound on "Jungle" is supreme -- tastefully layered and aggressive, and Dee Dee's bass nearly stands out as much as it did on "Ramones," providing a head-bopping, buzzy beat. The production does go over-the-top with the drums; the snare is so taut, you almost begin to believe that Marky is playing with brushes. Producers Glen Kolotkin and Ritchie Cordell tried to capture their late '60s bubblegum heyday, with the drum signatures, chimes, and Joey's croon. It works, but doesn't quite fit into the genre for which the Ramones are known.<br />That having been said, this is still a great album from song to song. "Time Bomb" hits a low point with questionable lyrical content (but then, "Jungle" is a brooding album), and "I Need Your Love" is a sleeper. The best of the album can be heard between the two '60s covers, "Little Bit O'Soul" and "Time Has Come Today." Even after that sequence, there are still gems like "My-My Kind of a Girl" and "Everytime I Eat Vegetables, It Makes Me Think of You," which shows that the Ramones could still joke light-heartedly about thorazine and shock treatment. Even the cover of the foursome on a heavily-graffitied subway train deftly defines the combination of humor and darkness that makes "Jungle" what it is.<br />This is a very good album, containing some of the most undervalued, straight-up rock the Ramones have ever recorded. The fans got it wrong. </span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1. Little Bit O' Soul 2:43<br />2. I Need Your Love 3:08<br />3. Outsider 2:10<br />4.

It’s not so much a guitar as a piece of two by four with a string nailed to it. He calls it his Diddley Bow, and the resultant groove is exactly that as laid down by the bloke who (almost) had that name, only in reverse.<br />This third solo album is a cracking collection, one that rings with the depth of twang comparable only to the likes of the legendary Ry Cooder. That’s not surprising, given that Steve (real name Steven Gene Wold) sticks just as assiduously to the analogue way, all valve amps and ribbon microphones along with the extraordinarily-built instruments he uses: he introduces track three by saying, “Alright, little cigar box…”<br />That track is called Happy (To Have a Job), and it sums up Steve’s career. Born “around the post-war period” in Oakland, in the San Francisco Bay area, it seems he was a genuine, bona-fide hobo, fathering children fairly liberally, hitting it off with the grunge fraternity in Washington. Then came a move to Norway with the wife, which included a booze-cruise to Denmark, his reaction to which gave him the nickname he doesn’t particularly like, but is lumbered with.<br />Then, a couple of years ago, a few prescient UK festival bookers took a chance and he became the darling of the circuit, working audiences brilliantly and showing just how few trappings you need to nail it when you have this sort of natural ability. Steve’s spell in the spotlight might have arrived late in his life, but nobody can argue it’s not been deserved.<br />He has produced, written, recorded and engineered this release, and performs everything except the drums – here, Dan Magnusson steps in. Some listeners may bemoan a lack of bass in the mix, and to hear this material with a little more low end could be a treat, but that really is being picky. The groove, as you might already have noted, is impeccable; the songs are authentic and it all sounds so effortless – an effortlessness that can only come from a lot of living.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Fueled by disgust with the music industry, a whopping dose of LSD, and an ever-expanding palette of rock, jazz, and blues influences, Peter Green released The End of the Game in 1970 to critical and commercial revulsion; the album's six tracks are all edited cuts from a chaotic space jam held by Green featuring a number of respected studio musicians, crossing genre boundaries from blues to jazz to rock to psychedelica to ambient to sheer uncompromising noise. Blues purists disowned Green as a fraud and a sellout, while rock junkies responded with profound bafflement. Looking back on The End of the Game now, in light of the popularity of experimental groups such as Tangerine Dream and Sonic Youth, the album seems tame and accessible to most audiences. Those who hold blues tradition in holy regard will still likely shy away, and more than a few fusion lovers may also justifiably cringe at the druggy madness that awaits within, but for open-minded appreciators of stark rock melodies, blistering funk grooves, and startling dark ambient soundscapes, a veritable treasure trove lies in The End of the Game.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

In other words, he’s applying –intentionally or otherwise- his commercially viable and thoroughly bankable, white face to a black roots sound. Ready and aimed at any cynic who dares to dismiss him as a gimmick though, Kray has even gone so far as to call his debut LP Tales From A Skinny White Boy. We could debate Londoner Bobby Kray’s credibility and authenticity till the cows come home, but the question is: is this album any good?<br />On initial listen, the music is incredibly easy to digest; Kray’s high-pitched, Justin Timberlake-styled vocal glides over catchy melodies and rolls effortlessly through gentle drums and chilled bass. “Silly Games” leaps out as an obvious highlight. That is until the reggae connoisseur sitting to your left informs you it’s a cover of Janet Kay’s 1979 lovers rock classic and the original is far better. Kray also covers well-known reggae anthem “Bam Bam”, made famous by Sister Nancy, and the result is far more pleasing. Well, more pleasing than Chaka Demus &amp; Pliers’ version, anyway. Digs aside, slow burner “Help Me” is a beautiful, sensitive track, and possibly the most natural of the album. Meanwhile, “Mr Otty” hears Kray’s vocal at its best; hitting both low and high notes over a contagious, head-nodding, reggae backing track. Sadly, tracks “Mary Jane”, “I Love You” and “Wait Up” have ‘album filler’ written all over them.<br />Overall, Kray’s debut offering, entirely produced by UK dub master Dennis Bovell, is totally inoffensive; which is possibly the ultimate insult to any self-respecting musician.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

Left, right and center you hear and see techno, electronic and house music which is far removed from the heady days of Krautrock and real instruments being played. (and please, don’t mention Rammstein or Tokio Hotel.)<br />That’s why it’s so refreshing to see a band like the Cologne based Von Spar approach things so differently. Somewhat surprisingly, Von Spar have already got two albums under their belts and used to be better known as an emo band.<br />Even though this remarkable album utilizes electronic production, Foreigner could be classed as a total backlash towards the soullessness of electronic music. These are real songs made with real instruments and the they are deeply reflective. Foreigner starts its journey with ‘Scotch and Chablis’, easily one of my favorite tracks of the year, resembling the pop noir attitude that the NY art-pop collective Lansing-Dreiden had. A soothing pop gem, that hurls every curveball that you can imagine.<br />The likelihood is that this album will go unnoticed this year, like all the best ones do, but tracks like ‘HyBoLT’ beg to be noticed; Von Spar drive this tune straight out of a Cory Haim movie and it’s a sexy, confident total gem.There are moments of strangeness here too; ‘Collecting Natural Antimatter’ resembles the same adrenalin I would feel hearing ‘Chariots of Fire’; long winding guitar lines ala Mark Knopffler, pitch driven keys played by Tom Cruise, and a break down which is ridiculously good.<br />‘You Can Shake Down On My Settee Tonight’ provides us with some avant-garde German moments, the least accessible track but still fun nonetheless; I ask myself what am I waiting for? Go and paint something on the wall.<br />And finally ‘Daddy Longlegs’, what a song. Seven minutes of Giorgio Moroder/ Jean Michelle Jarre loving. As soon as the bass-line kicks in, you have no choice but to run with it. It goes to many different places including Saturn and back, but by the time its finished your exhausted.<br />This is a real album! Especially in a time where people’s attention span have gone from 1 second to 0.5 seconds. Give this a full proper listen, you’ll stop saying Scooter and start saying Von Spar!</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.

In 1972, Michael Viner was an executive at MGM Records. Asked to put together some music for the soundtrack of an upcoming B-movie horror film, The Thing with Two Heads, he called on songwriter Perry Botkin, Jr., and the two of them whipped up a pair of songs called "Bongo Rock" and "Bongolia." By the middle of 1973, the songs, attributed to the Incredible Bongo Band, began to take off, both in Canada and on the U.S. R&amp;B and pop charts, so Viner and Botkin took the concept to the next obvious level and cut an album, also titled Bongo Rock. Successful enough to scrape into the bottom of the Billboard album chart, the pair put together The Return of the Incredible Bongo Band in 1974 before fizzling out. There are some other pertinent details worth knowing, for example, that Jim Gordon, of Derek &amp; the Dominos fame, was one of the key drummers on the project, and that Ringo Starr supposedly stopped in to bang out a few beats. But some of the best stuff happened long after the demise of the IBB, when early hip-hop DJs such as Kool DJ Herc and Grandmaster Flash, and then the Sugarhill Gang, Massive Attack and others, discovered the Incredible Bongo Band's recordings and began using samples from them. What started as a tossed-off filler session for a crummy flick took on a life of its own. This CD reissue contains not all, but most of the tracks from the two original albums, plus two remixes, "Apache (Grand Master Flash Remix)" and "Last Bongo in Belgium (Breakers Mix)." Interesting as it is to hear how the bongo-centric beats were toyed with by the hip-hoppers, the original recordings stand up on their own as classically kitschy cheese-rock. Bongos aren't the only sound heard, naturally, and fans of both lounge-rock and that crisp, reverby guitar sound prominent in old spy movies and Ventures records will dig what the IBB were all about. Their version of "Apache," the classic '60s instrumental made famous by the Shadows, is the equal of any other, and while that can't be said of their takes on "Satisfaction," "Raunchy," "Wipeout" or even "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida," these studio musicians -- most of whom the creators of the IBB don't recall but which may or may not have included some heavyweights -- sure had a good time stepping out on their nights off.</span></div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">1.
