The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown – The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown (1968) [2010, Deluxe Edition, Remastered, 2CD]

Though a bit over the top, this album was still powerful and surprisingly melodic, and managed to be quite bluesy and soulful even as the band overhauled chestnuts by James Brown and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. “Spontaneous Apple Creation” is a willfully histrionic, atonal song that gives Captain Beefheart a run for his money.

George Benson – Songs And Stories (2009) [CD + DVD + Hi-Res]

George Benson - Songs And Stories (2009) [CD + DVD + Hi-Res]

George Benson’s sound is so recognizable that, in its way, it’s quite comforting to hear his voice or his guitar come across on the radio or in a club. His recordings have been polished and extravagant in many cases, but there are those signature elements — his relaxed delivery and silky touch on the strings and his voice, as evocative as a cool breeze floating across a hot summer night. Songs and Stories doesn’t deviate from his formula a great deal, but it doesn’t have to. Continue reading “George Benson – Songs And Stories (2009) [CD + DVD + Hi-Res]”

Throughout 1969 and into 1970, CCR toured incessantly and recorded nearly as much. Appropriately, Cosmo’s Factory’s first single was the working band’s anthem “Travelin’ Band,” a funny, piledriving rocker with a blaring horn section — the first indication their sonic palette was broadening.

Amy Winehouse – Black To Black (2006) [2007, Deluxe Edition]

Amy Winehouse - Black To Black (2006) [2007, Deluxe Edition]

A collection of B-sides to Amy Winehouse’s massive Back to Black album, this eight-track set features a range of material (nearly all consisting of covers) and functions at nearly the same high level as the A-sides and album tracks — no small feat. The first track is a slower version of the Zutons’ song “Valerie” that Winehouse had done earlier with Mark Ronson for Ronson’s Version album (and also featured in the film 27 Dresses).

The Beach Boys – Pet Sounds (1966) [2009, Audio Fidelity Remastered]

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (1966) [2009, Audio Fidelity Remastered]

The best Beach Boys album, and one of the best of the 1960s. The group here reached a whole new level in terms of both composition and production, layering tracks upon tracks of vocals and instruments to create a richly symphonic sound. Conventional keyboards and guitars were combined with exotic touches of orchestrated strings, bicycle bells, buzzing organs, harpsichords, flutes, Theremin, Hawaiian-sounding string instruments, Coca-Cola cans, barking dogs, and more.

The Strokes – Is This It (2001) [2002, US Version + DVD]

The Strokes - Is This It (2001) [2002, US Version + DVD]

Blessed and cursed with an enormous amount of advance hype from the British press, the Strokes proved they were one of the few groups deserving of glowing reviews with Is This It. Granted, their faultless influences — especially the Stooges, Lou Reed, and the Velvet Underground — have “critics’ darlings” written all over them. However, the Strokes don’t rehash the sounds that inspire them; they remake them in their own image. Continue reading “The Strokes – Is This It (2001) [2002, US Version + DVD]”

Faces - A Nod Is As Good As A Wink...To A Blind Horse... (1971) [2005, Audio Fidelity Remastered]

The Faces’ third album, A Nod Is as Good as a Wink…to a Blind Horse, finally gave the group their long-awaited hit single in “Stay with Me,” helping send the album into the Billboard Top Ten, which is certainly a testament to both the song and the album, but it’s hard to separate its success from that of Rod Stewart’s sudden solo stardom. In the mere months that separated Long Player and A Nod, Rod had a phenomenal hit with “Maggie May” and Every Picture Tells a Story, his third solo album Continue reading “Faces – A Nod Is As Good As A Wink…To A Blind Horse… (1971) [2005, Audio Fidelity Remastered]”
