Filmed in November 2018, Hysteria At The O2 captures Def Leppard celebrating the ground-breaking Hysteria, one of their two diamond-certified 10x platinum albums (the other being Pyromania). Performed in it’s entirety before a ravenous sold-out crowd, this momentous homecoming event is made all the more powerful as it was their long-awaited debut at the iconic O2 Arena in London. Featuring electrifying performances of “Pour Some Sugar On Me,” “Animal,” “Women,” and “Love Bites,” band members Joe Elliott (vocals), Phil Collen (guitar), Rick “Sav” Savage (bass), Vivian Campbell (guitar), and Rick Allen (drums), conclude the set with a host of extra hits including “Let’s Get Rocked,” “When Love and Hate Collide,” and “Photograph.” Hysteria At The O2 includes bonus “Hysteria: Then And Now” mini-documentary.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - CSNY 1974 (2014) [Blu-ray + DVD + Hi-Res]

It was, at the time, one of the highest-grossing rock tours ever, grossing over 11 million dollars in an era when such figures were uncommon. Such success camouflaged the chaos behind the scenes — the bitter fights and feuds, the excess and indulgence that led to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young pocketing about a half million dollars each, when all was said and done. Big bucks were the reason the CSNY 1974 tour even existed. Continue reading “Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young – CSNY 1974 (2014) [Blu-ray + DVD + Hi-Res]”

Jean Michel Jarre, son of film composer Maurice Jarre, is one of the true pioneers of electronic music. Oxygène is one of the original e-music albums. It has withstood the test of time and the evolution of digital electronica. Jarre’s compositional style and his rhythmic instincts were his strong points in 1976.

Stéphane Grappelli was a French jazz violinist who founded the Quintette du Hot Club de France with guitarist Django Reinhardt in 1934. It was one of the first all-string jazz bands. He has been called “the grandfather of jazz violinists” and continued playing concerts around the world well into his ’80s. This 1969 album is a collaboration with Barney Kessel, an American jazz guitarist born in Muskogee, Oklahoma. Noted in particular for his knowledge of chords and inversions and chord-based melodies, he was a member of many prominent jazz groups as well as a “first call” guitarist for studio, film, and television recording sessions. Kessel was a member of the group of session musicians informally known as the Wrecking Crew.

This is the perfect setting for acoustic guitarist Earl Klugh, playing strong melodies (including such standards as “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes,” “Laura,” “Mona Lisa,” and “Two for the Road”) while joined by strings and several horns in an orchestra arranged and conducted by David Matthews. As usual for a Klugh session, the guitarist sticks mostly to the themes and does not improvise much, as he never considered himself a jazz player; but the overall effect is quite pleasing.

Soul Asylum are not the band they used to be, and that’s not a judgement, that’s just a fact. In the year 2020, lead vocalist and songwriter Dave Pirner is the only member left from their original lineup, and 36 years on from their debut album (and 28 after they broke through with Grave Dancer’s Union), it’s foolish to expect them to sound like they did in the era when flannel shirts and beat-up jeans were briefly fashionable rather than slobby.

Paul McCartney always got the short end of the stick when he was in the Beatles and again in the ’70s, as he and his erstwhile partner John Lennon pursued solo careers. McCartney was attacked for his virtues — for his melodicism and his domesticity, along with his desire to form a real touring band following the Beatles.

Like any recording artist of the ‘60s, Bob Dylan had his albums mixed for mono during the bulk of the decade. Stereo mixes were simultaneously released, but they didn’t take precedence until the end of the ‘60s, when the industry and public tastes shifted toward two speakers.

Released in 1978 after London Town gave McCartney another huge hit, Wings Greatest rounds up McCartney’s greatest hits from 1971 to 1978 — which means it skips “Maybe I’m Amazed” but touches on Ram. The main strength of this collection is that it contains many hits that never appeared on any album, and these are among McCartney’s very best non-Beatle singles: the eccentric domesticity of “Another Day,” the choogling rocker “Junior’s Farm,” the Bond anthem “Live and Let Die,” the piledriving “Hi Hi Hi,” and “Mull of Kintyre,” a Scottish-styled folk ballad that was his biggest hit in England.
