Carole king – Tapestry (1971) [1994, MasterSound Remastered]

Carole king - Tapestry (1971) [1994, MasterSound Remastered]

Carole King brought the fledgling singer/songwriter phenomenon to the masses with Tapestry, one of the most successful albums in pop music history. A remarkably expressive and intimate record, it’s a work of consummate craftsmanship. Always a superior pop composer, King reaches even greater heights as a performer; new songs like the hits “It’s Too Late” and “I Feel the Earth Move” rank solidly with past glories Continue reading “Carole king – Tapestry (1971) [1994, MasterSound Remastered]”

Bob Dylan – Discography (1962 – 2018)

Bob Dylan - Discography (1962 - 2018)

Bob Dylan’s influence on popular music is incalculable. As a songwriter, he pioneered several different schools of pop songwriting, from confessional singer/songwriter to winding, hallucinatory, stream-of-consciousness narratives. As a vocalist, he broke down the notion that a singer must have a conventionally good voice in order to perform, thereby redefining the vocalist’s role in popular music.

White Light, aka Gene Clark, is the second solo album by Gene Clark, former member of The Byrds. It received critical acclaim upon its release,[citation needed] but only achieved commercial success in the Netherlands, where rock critics also voted it album of the year. Like all of his post-Byrds records, it did very poorly on the US charts. Continue reading “Gene Clark – White Light (1971) {2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip}”

Richard Thompson – Rumor And Sigh (1991) [2018, MFSL Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Richard Thompson - Rumor And Sigh (1991) [2018, MFSL Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

While Richard Thompson’s devotees will tell you the man is a triple-threat genius — passionate vocalist, compelling songwriter, and sterling guitarist — even his most loyal supporters will concede that the dour nature of his songs and the no-frills production of many of his albums make the bulk of his catalog tough sledding for the uninitiated. Given this, 1991’s Rumor and Sigh is arguably the best album for those wanting to sample Thompson’s work for the first time.

Gene Clark - The Lost Studio Sessions 1964-1982 (2016) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

24 tracks-Two CDs worth of music. Playable on both standard CD and SACD players, 36 page booklet. At long last, these 24 thought-to-be-lost recordings by the late, great Gene Clark is now in release on Sierra Hybrid SACD and Sierra High Fidelity on 2 LP audiophile vinyl set. These incredible recordings, which have never been released commercially, are from the original analog master studio recording sessions held in Los Angeles between 1964 and 1982. Gene Clark was one of the most influential musical pioneers of the rock era. A pivotal figure at the births of rock music’s golden trifecta of hyphenated subgenres (folk, psychedelic and country) in the1960s, he earned his rightful place in the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame as a founding member and principal songwriter of The Byrds.

Bob Dylan – Blonde On Blonde (1966) [1994, MasterSound, 24-Karat Gold Disc Remastered]

Bob Dylan - Blonde On Blonde (1966) [1994, MasterSound, 24-Karat Gold Disc Remastered]

If Highway 61 Revisited played as a garage rock record, the double album Blonde on Blonde inverted that sound, blending blues, country, rock, and folk into a wild, careening, and dense sound. Replacing the fiery Michael Bloomfield with the intense, weaving guitar of Robbie Robertson, Bob Dylan led a group comprised of his touring band the Hawks and session musicians through his richest set of songs. Blonde on Blonde is an album of enormous depth, providing endless lyrical and musical revelations on each play Continue reading “Bob Dylan – Blonde On Blonde (1966) [1994, MasterSound, 24-Karat Gold Disc Remastered]”

Tom Waits - Rain Dogs (1985) [2014, Japanese SHM-SACD, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Rain Dogs is the eighth studio album by American singer-songwriter Tom Waits, released in September 1985 on Island Records. A loose concept album about “the urban dispossessed” of New York City, Rain Dogs is generally considered the middle album of a trilogy that includes Swordfishtrombones and Franks Wild Years.

Don McLean – American Pie (1971) [2016, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Don McLean - American Pie (1971) [2016, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Don McLean’s second album, American Pie, which was his first to gain recognition after the negligible initial sales of 1970’s Tapestry, is necessarily dominated by its title track, a lengthy, allegorical history of rock & roll, because it became an unlikely hit, topping the singles chart and putting the LP at number one as well. “American Pie” has remained as much a cultural touchstone as a song, sung by everyone from Garth Brooks to Madonna, its title borrowed for a pair of smutty teen comedies, while the record itself has earned a registered three-million plays on U.S. radio stations.
