Barry Gibb - Now Voyager (1984)

“And I ra-a-an, I ran so far awa-a-ay….” OK, now that you’ve got that stuck in your head for the rest of the day, you may as well go ahead and get the rest of the hits and misses from the most badly coifed outfit in synth-pop history. Frontman Mike Score, a former hairdresser, is responsible for Continue reading “A Flock Of Seagulls – The Best Of A Flock Of Seagulls (1986) {2003, Reissue}”

Robin Gibb – Walls Have Eyes (1985)

Robin Gibb - Walls Have Eyes (1985)

Although it’s not as consistently catchy and inventive as his prior outing, the hip-hop/electro-fueled Secret Agent, Walls Have Eyes is probably Bee Gee Robin Gibb’s best-loved solo album. Part of the reason may be that it sounds more than a little like the Bee Gees themselves; besides brother Maurice (who also helped out on Secret Agent), the album also features older Continue reading “Robin Gibb – Walls Have Eyes (1985)”

VA - Twist And Shout: The Stateside Story 1962 (2013)

Stateside Records is a British records label founded in 1962 by EMI. The Top Rank label recently folded, so EMI bosses hired the Rank Organisation’s former executive Fred Exon to run the new label in direct competition with Decca’s London American imprint. Stateside dealt exclusively with imported American material; no home-grown acts were released with the Stateside moniker. Continue reading “VA – Twist And Shout: The Stateside Story 1962 (2013)”

Sheryl Crow – The Very Best Of Sheryl Crow (2003)

Sheryl Crow - The Very Best Of Sheryl Crow (2003)

Sheryl Crow was one of the key artists of the ’90s, if the yardstick is capturing the sound and spirit of the time. A former backing vocalist for Michael Jackson — an association that led to dubious tabloid headlines romantically linking her with the singer long before she was a star in her own right — she rode the first great wave of Women in Rock hysteria of the alt-rock explosion to fame with her first album, Tuesday Night Music Club, in 1994, settling into the weary aftermath of the post-grunge years with her brilliant eponymous second album Continue reading “Sheryl Crow – The Very Best Of Sheryl Crow (2003)”

Patty Smyth – Greatest Hits – Featuring Scandal (1998)

Patty Smyth - Greatest Hits - Featuring Scandal (1998)

When Smyth had her first hit with the band Scandal in 1982 with the peppy kiss-off “Goodbye to You,” MTV was still in its infancy and Alanis Morissette was not long out of diapers. Not exactly the stereotypical groundbreaker, the New York-born Smyth nonetheless helped make the pre-Madonna ’80s safe for women in rock, paving the way for such hit makers as Morissette, Sheryl Crow, and the whole Lilith Fair flock. While this career-spanning retrospective is a Continue reading “Patty Smyth – Greatest Hits – Featuring Scandal (1998)”
