The Pretty Things – Bouquets From A Cloudy Sky: The Complete Pretty Things (2015) [13CDs + 2DVDs, Box Set]

The Pretty Things - Bouquets From A Cloudy Sky: The Complete Pretty Things (2015) [13CDs + 2DVDs, Box Set]

It is a hefty box in every sense: 13 CDs, supplemented with two DVDs, accompanied by a gorgeous hardcover book and a variety of tchotchkes, including a poster that traces the twisted family trees and time lines of the band and, just as helpfully, replicas of legal documents that explain why the group didn’t retain rights to its recordings for years.

Cilla Black – Completely Cilla: 1963-1973 (2012) [Box Set, 5CD + DVD]

Cilla Black - Completely Cilla: 1963-1973 (2012) [Box Set, 5CD + DVD]

Cilla Black wasn’t a natural singer when the Beatles’ manager, Brian Epstein, discovered her, and while she learned the ropes well enough and developed into a strong ballad singer, she was never a serious threat to Dusty Springfield in the talent department. But the pop world isn’t really about pure talent as much as it is a matter of timing, luck, having the right look, and maybe most of all, good material and good production Continue reading “Cilla Black – Completely Cilla: 1963-1973 (2012) [Box Set, 5CD + DVD]”

Apple – An Apple A Day… (1969) [2020 Remastered]

Apple - An Apple A Day... (1969) [2020 Remastered]

Apple were a British psychedelic rock band. The band was founded in Cardiff in 1968 by Rob Ingram on guitar and Jeff Harrad on bass. They released a single LP in 1969, titled An Apple a Day. The album was a commercial failure, and the band ceased to exist shortly after its release. However, during the subsequent years several tracks from the LP, most notably “The Otherside” by Harrad, were dubbed classics of British psychedelic rock by critics, making An Apple a Day one of the most sought-after British psychedelic rarities.

Madeleine Peyroux – Let’s Walk (2024) [Japanese Edition]

Madeleine Peyroux - Let's Walk (2024) [Japanese Edition]

Let’s Walk is the ninth album by Madeleine Peyroux. On her previous outings, she recorded covers of jazz and Great American Songbook standards and works of contemporary songwriters. While she’s often co-written songs with her collaborators, Let’s Walk is entirely composed of her written originals, which offer excellent lyrics as she continues to mine jazz, blues, and folk.

The Doors – Live In Bakersfield, August 21, 1970 (2023) [2CD]

The Doors - Live In Bakersfield, August 21, 1970 (2023) [2CD]

The Doors Live in Bakersfield is one of the more unique shows from The Doors during a tumultuous 1970 when Jim Morrison was on trial on trumped-up charges in Miami. The band had been playing together live for five years, and were tight enough to be able to veer into the unknown. Continue reading “The Doors – Live In Bakersfield, August 21, 1970 (2023) [2CD]”

Neil Young & Crazy Horse – Fu##in’ Up (2024)

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Fu##in' Up (2024)

In 1990, Neil Young & Crazy Horse got the jump on the grunge movement with their brilliantly scrappy and distortion-coated release Ragged Glory. That record (along with their 1991 tour and live album counterpart Weld) celebrated feedback and volume, using overdriven guitars to deliver some of Young’s most spirited and straightforwardly melodic songwriting. Continue reading “Neil Young & Crazy Horse – Fu##in’ Up (2024)”

Creed – Human Clay (1999)

Creed - Human Clay (1999)

Most critics and pop music trainspotters didn’t give Creed’s 1997 debut My Own Prison much credit upon its release, even though it wound up going multi-platinum. At the time, they seemed like one of many heavy post-grunge guitar outfits — especially to the disinterested observers who tend to name genres and classify bands.

Petula Clark – Ultimate Petula Clark (2003)

Petula Clark - Ultimate Petula Clark (2003)

The most commercially successful female singer in British chart history, Petula Clark was born November 15, 1932 in Epsom, England. Trained to sing by her soprano mother, Clark embarked on a stage career at the age of seven; soon she was a fixture on British radio programs, and began hosting her own regular show, Pet’s Parlour — a series spotlighting patriotic songs designed to boost the morale of wartime audiences — at the tender age of 11 Continue reading “Petula Clark – Ultimate Petula Clark (2003)”

Santana – Santana (1969) [1994, Mastersound Remaster, 24-Karat Gold Disc]

Santana - Santana (1969) [1994, Mastersound Remaster, 24-Karat Gold Disc]

Carlos Santana was originally in his own wing of the Latin Rock Hall of Fame, neither playing Afro-Cuban with rock guitar, as did Malo, nor flavoring mainstream rock with percussion, as did Chicago. His first record, as with the best fusion, created something a little different than just a mixture Continue reading “Santana – Santana (1969) [1994, Mastersound Remaster, 24-Karat Gold Disc]”
