Bachman-Turner Overdrive – Albums Collection (1973 – 2016)

Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Albums Collection (1973 - 2016)

Following his 1970 departure from the Guess Who, guitarist Randy Bachman recorded a solo album (Axe) and planned a project with ex-Nice keyboardist Keith Emerson (later canceled due to illness) before forming Bachman-Turner Overdrive in 1972. Originally called “Brave Belt,” the metal group was comprised of singer/guitarist Bachman, fellow Guess Who alum Chad Allan, bassist C.F. “Fred” Turner, and Randy’s brother, drummer Robbie; after a pair of LPs (Brave Belt I and Brave Belt II), Allan was replaced by another Bachman brother, guitarist Tim, and in homage to the trucker’s magazine Overdrive, the unit became BTO.

Bachman-Turner Overdrive’s Four Wheel Drive album is most often overlooked, mainly because all of the attention was focused on the singable “na na na naa”‘s of one of B.T.O.’s biggest hits in “Hey You.” But the rest of the album is made up of the band’s lunch-pail rock & roll sound, combining ample amounts of factory-made blues to street-dirty guitar rock.

Ben Davies called Bachman-Turner Overdrive’s first album a “fusion of Lynyrd Skynyrd-style Southern/trucker rock and ZZ Top’s anthemic arena rock,” and with their logo imprinted in a big metallic gear which looks like it inspired James Cameron’s Terminator trademark, Randy Bachman, his brothers Tim and Robbie, and C.F. Turner dish out a methodical mix of plodding hard dirges. Continue reading “Bachman-Turner Overdrive – Bachman-Turner Overdrive (1973) [2020, Remastered, WEB Hi-Res]”

Eric Clapton And Steve Winwood – Live From Madison Square Garden (2009) [2CD + BD + Hi-Res]

Eric Clapton And Steve Winwood - Live From Madison Square Garden (2009) [2CD + BD + Hi-Res]

Eric Clapton’s new millennium has largely been defined by collaborations with friends, beginning with a duet album with B.B. King following through with a Cream reunion and closing with tours with his former Blind Faith running mate, Steve Winwood. Clapton and Winwood did three concerts together at Madison Square Garden in February 2008 and the results were fruitful enough to spawn this double-disc album — along with its accompanying DVD set — and a moderately scaled 2009 tour.

Greendale ranks as one of the more elaborate projects Neil Young ever conceived, a concept album inspired by Thornton Wilder’s Our Town which was accompanied by a film telling the record’s story — the film was then used as a backdrop for a theatrical production featuring Young and Crazy Horse.

The Byrds - Albums Collection

Although they only attained the huge success of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, and the Beach Boys for a short time in the mid-’60s, time has judged the Byrds to be nearly as influential as those groups in the long run. Continue reading “The Byrds – Albums Collection”

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]”

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.

None of the Band’s previous work gave much of a clue about how they would sound when they released their first album in July 1968. As it was, Music from Big Pink came as a surprise. At first blush, the group seemed to affect the sound of a loose jam session, alternating emphasis on different instruments, while the lead and harmony vocals passed back and forth as if the singers were making up their blend on the spot. In retrospect, especially as the lyrics sank in, the arrangements seemed far more considered and crafted to support a group of songs that took family, faith, and rural life as their subjects and proceeded to imbue their values with uncertainty.

Recorded quickly during Led Zeppelin’s first American tours, Led Zeppelin II provided the blueprint for all the heavy metal bands that followed it. Since the group could only enter the studio for brief amounts of time, most of the songs that compose II are reworked blues and rock & roll standards that the band was performing on-stage at the time. Not only did the short amount of time result in a lack of original material, it made the sound more direct.
