Frankie Miller – …That’s Who!: The Complete Chrysalis Recordings 1973-1980 (2011) [4CD Box Set]

Frankie Miller - ...That's Who!: The Complete Chrysalis Recordings 1973-1980 (2011) [4CD Box Set]

Scottish whiskey-voiced vocalist Frankie Miller never made much of a splash in the States, despite, or perhaps because of, his fixation on American soul and R&B. Yanks have never been terribly appreciative of the music that originated in their homeland, which might have been a contributing factor to Miller’s marginal popularity in the U.S. He was a fairly major star in the U.K., though, big enough for EMI to remaster, repackage, and reissue his catalog (at least for the titles on their Chrysalis imprint) into this generous four-disc box.

Paul Simon – Discography (1965 – 2017)

Paul Simon - Discography (1965 - 2017)

Paul Simon is one of the most successful and respected songwriters of the rock era. Rising to fame in the mid-’60s, Simon’s songs were mature and literate, but also melodically engaging, and spoke to the concerns and uncertainties of a generation. As the 1960s gave way to the ’70s and ’80s, Simon’s work tended to focus on the personal rather than the larger world, but he also expanded his musical palette, and helped introduce many rock and pop fans to world music.

One of the most hotly awaited second albums in history — right up there with those by the Beatles and the Band — Déjà Vu lived up to its expectations and rose to number one on the charts. Those achievements are all the more astonishing given the fact that the group barely held together through the estimated 800 hours it took to record Déjà Vu and scarcely functioned as a group for most of that time.

“Try to keep it as plain spoken as possible…” those are some of the first words the viewer hears in Plain Spoken: From The Chicago Theatre. A self-narrated musical journey, the film encapsulates the sound and soul of John Mellencamp. Stepping outside the boundaries of a concert film or documentary, Plain Spoken blends highly personal voice-overs from Mellencamp with live footage of him performing with his full band at the historic Chicago Theatre, just 250 miles from his native Indiana.

Art Garfunkel – Angel Clare (1973) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Art Garfunkel - Angel Clare (1973) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Garfunkel (he was billed without his first name here) had a lot riding on his debut solo album, and Angel Clare, named after a character in Thomas Hardy’s novel Tess of the d’Urbervilles, lived up to the heightened expectations for the man who had sung “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and other Simon & Garfunkel favorites. Garfunkel took no chances, issuing as the first single Jimmy Webb’s “All I Know,” which was arranged in a similar style to “Bridge” and made the Top Ten.

Art Garfunkel – Breakaway (1975) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Art Garfunkel - Breakaway (1975) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The second time around, Art Garfunkel turned to pop producer Richard Perry, who liked to record in studios rather than cathedrals and who replaced the angelic style of the first album with a lush pop approach. The result was Garfunkel’s best-selling album. The title track and a cover of “I Only Have Eyes for You” reached the Top 40 (the latter topped the U.K. charts), though the most prominent song was the Simon & Garfunkel reunion single “My Little Town.” Continue reading “Art Garfunkel – Breakaway (1975) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Love – Forever Changes (1967) [2018, 50th Anniversary Edition, Remastered, 4CD + DVD + Hi-Res]

Love - Forever Changes (1967) [2018, 50th Anniversary Edition, Remastered, 4CD + DVD + Hi-Res]

Love’s FOREVER CHANGES is the psychedelic folk-rock pioneers’ finest achievement. The set features a few firsts for the album, including the CD-debut of a remastered version made by its original co-producer and engineer Bruce Botnick, as well as the first-ever release of the mono version on CD. Also included are alternate mixes of the album, as well as a selection of rare and unreleased singles and studio outtakes. Botnick’s stereo remaster of the original album makes its vinyl debut on the LP included with this set. It was cut from high resolution digital audio by celebrated audio engineer Bernie Grundman. The DVD that accompanies the anniversary collection includes a 24/96 stereo mix of the album version of the original album remastered Continue reading “Love – Forever Changes (1967) [2018, 50th Anniversary Edition, Remastered, 4CD + DVD + Hi-Res]”

Love’s Forever Changes made only a minor dent on the charts when it was first released in 1967, but years later it became recognized as one of the finest and most haunting albums to come out of the Summer of Love, which doubtless has as much to do with the disc’s themes and tone as the music, beautiful as it is.

Rickie Lee Jones – The Sermon On Exposition Boulevard (2007) [Limited Edition, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Rickie Lee Jones - The Sermon On Exposition Boulevard (2007) [Limited Edition, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Consulting theologians and Bible scholars during the 1990s, photographer, writer, graphic artist, and everyday mystic Lee Cantelon (aka Pennyhead) assembled a small book presenting the words of Jesus Christ (just Jesus’ words, not the stuff surrounding them) in a fitting translation called The Words. He did it for the purpose of presenting those words to people who were not “religious” — people who were put off by organized religion or even offended by it.
