In retrospect, 1982 was a brief, exhilarating moment in between the fall of disco and the rise of MTV, when the eternal verities of real rock & roll broke through once again. The punk and new wave music of the late ’70s had given way to power-pop, a return to catchy, relatively unadorned guitar rock. In that context, it was easy to see Marshall Crenshaw and his self-titled debut album as the Next Big Thing.

The more things change in music, the more they stay the same. The alternative rockers of the 1990s may have caused so-called corporate rockers like Poison and Bon Jovi to become less visible, but at the same time, the worship of 1970s baby boomer culture was alive and well among post-baby boomers. In 1998, one of the most memorable examples of 1970s-flavored music came from the New Radicals. Continue reading “New Radicals – Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too (1998) {Japanese Edition}”

Rickie Lee Jones – Traffic From Paradise (1993) [2012, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Rickie Lee Jones - Traffic From Paradise (1993) [2012, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

“Just give me many chances … time to learn to crawl,” sings Rickie Lee Jones on this, her fifth album of new material in 14 years. Clearly, she’s had a lot of chances already, and some have paid off big, notably her first two albums, Rickie Lee Jones and Pirates.

Rickie Lee Jones - It's Like This (2000) [2008, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

It’s Like This is an album by American singer/songwriter Rickie Lee Jones, released in 2000. Like her 1991 album Pop Pop, this is a mixture of covers ranging from musical classics from the likes of Lerner and Lowe, Hoagy Carmichael and the Gershwin brothers, to classic rock from Steely Dan and Marvin Gaye.

Rory Gallagher – Big Guns: The Very Best Of Rory Gallagher (2005) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Rory Gallagher - Big Guns: The Very Best Of Rory Gallagher (2005) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The compilation Big Guns: The Very Best of Rory Gallagher is one of the ways assembling a retrospective should be done. This set offers a portrait of a true guitar hero and songwriter, one whose flash never outweighed his substance, one whose work is so utterly and dazzlingly fresh it not only stands the test of time, but transcends it. Being an Irish bluesman was tough for Gallagher, especially when he began his career in the 1960s.

Todd Rundgren - A Wizard, A True Star (1973) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Something/Anything? proved that Todd Rundgren could write a pop classic as gracefully as any of his peers, but buried beneath the surface were signs that he would never be satisfied as merely a pop singer/songwriter. A close listen to the album reveals the eccentricities and restless spirit that surges to the forefront on its follow-up, A Wizard, A True Star.

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.

Wanda Jackson – Right Or Wrong (1992) [4CDs Box Set]

Wanda Jackson - Right Or Wrong (1992) [4CDs Box Set]

This four-CD set is like a photo album of Wanda Jackson growing up, from innocent adolescent to rockabilly star and the dominant female country singer of the early 1960s. Her complete recordings from the first Decca session in March 1954 until her Capitol session of November 2, 1962, constitute the part of her career that rock & roll and rockabilly fans most care about.
