Bon Jovi – This Left Feels Right (2003) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Bon Jovi - This Left Feels Right (2003) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

God knows why Bon Jovi felt the need to recut its best songs in an adult alternative style with Patrick Leonard as the producer. In the thorough liner notes — presented as an interview between Jon Bon Jovi and guitarist Richie Sambora — by the suddenly ubiquitous David Wild, Jon claims that the roots of the album derive from a Japanese show he recorded where the intent was to release live, acoustic versions of the band’s standards. Alas, the recordings weren’t up to snuff, so the band reentered the studio and cut versions that have more overdubs than the original releases.

Roy Orbison – The Soul Of Rock And Roll (2008) [4CD Box Set]

Roy Orbison - The Soul Of Rock And Roll (2008) [4CD Box Set]

In 1988, Columbia Records released a four-disc Roy Orbison retrospective called The Legendary Roy Orbison. It contained 74 tracks. It was a great package except for one thing: it sounded terrible, as the mastering techniques in the first days of the CD were not what they are now. The Soul of Rock and Roll, issued by Sony Legacy in 2008, is an enormous improvement in the sonic arena, just for starters. This four-disc collection contains 107 tracks (33 more than the previous box) with selections from all the labels Orbison recorded for.

It’s hard to blame Noel Gallagher for opting for stability over adventure once he disbanded Oasis. After spending nearly 20 years battling his brother Liam, he needed to take things easy, and if his solo records — Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds (2011) and Chasing Yesterday (2015) — were a little too calm, consider it a consequence of navigating himself out of chaos.

The Who – Quadrophenia: Live In London (2014) [Deluxe Edition, 2CD + DVD + 2BD + Hi-Res]

The Who - Quadrophenia: Live In London (2014) [Deluxe Edition, 2CD + DVD + 2BD + Hi-Res]

When the Who initially attempted to tour Quadrophenia in 1974, the results were a disaster. The band performed the rock opera alongside a series of backing tapes containing synthesizers and sound effects, a decision that put the mercurial Who into a straitjacket and led to uncharacteristically restrained performances. For years, the legend that Quadrophenia didn’t lend itself to the stage persisted but things started to change in 1996 Continue reading “The Who – Quadrophenia: Live In London (2014) [Deluxe Edition, 2CD + DVD + 2BD + Hi-Res]”

T. Rex – Electric Warrior (1971) [2003, Reissue, CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

T. Rex - Electric Warrior (1971) [2003, Reissue, CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The album that essentially kick-started the U.K. glam rock craze, Electric Warrior completes T.Rex’s transformation from hippie folk-rockers into flamboyant avatars of trashy rock & roll. There are a few vestiges of those early days remaining in the acoustic-driven ballads, but Electric Warrior spends most of its time in a swinging, hip-shaking groove powered by Marc Bolan’s warm electric guitar.

Alice Cooper – Discography (1969 – 2018)

Alice Cooper - Discography (1969 - 2018)

Originally, there was a band called Alice Cooper led by a singer named Vincent Damon Furnier. Under his direction, Alice Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical and violent brand of heavy metal that was designed to shock. Drawing equally from horror movies, vaudeville, heavy metal, and garage rock, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood, and huge boa constrictors, all coordinated by the heavily made-up Furnier Continue reading “Alice Cooper – Discography (1969 – 2018)”

Jeff Lynne’s ELO – Wembley Or Bust (2017) [CD + DVD]

Jeff Lynne's ELO - Wembley Or Bust (2017) [CD + DVD]

Jeff Lynne revived Electric Light Orchestra in 2015 — due to legal reasons, they were now called Jeff Lynne’s ELO — releasing a comeback album called Alone in the Universe and steadily mounting a return to the road. Several dates happened in 2016, but the tour reached its apex in June 2017, when the group played in front of 60,000 people at London’s Wembley Stadium. Released five months after that June 24 gig, Wembley or Bust — which was accompanied by a concert film — features the entirety of the gig, and if it’s not heard too closely, it could sometimes be mistaken for an ELO greatest-hits album.

Mötley Crüe – The End: Live In Los Angeles (2016) [CD + Blu-ray]

Mötley Crüe - The End: Live In Los Angeles (2016) [CD + Blu-ray]

On December 31, 2015, legendary rock icons Mötley Crüe completed their 35-year touring career as a band with a spectacular final concert at Staples Center in their hometown of Los Angeles, CA, just 10 miles from the Sunset Strip where the band’s infamous and decadent career first launched. The band thrilled the sold-out arena with performances of such mega-hits as Kickstart My Heart, Girls, Girls, Girls, Home Sweet Home and Dr. Feelgood.

Linkin Park – Discography (2000-2017)

Linkin Park - Discography (2000-2017)

Although rooted in alternative metal, Linkin Park became one of the most successful acts of the 2000s by welcoming elements of hip-hop, modern rock, and atmospheric electronica into their music. The band’s rise was indebted to the aggressive rap-rock movement made popular by the likes of Korn and Limp Bizkit, a movement that paired grunge’s alienation with a bold, buzzing soundtrack. Linkin Park added a unique spin to that formula, however, focusing as much on the vocal interplay between singer Chester Bennington and rapper Mike Shinoda as the band’s muscled instrumentation, which layered DJ effects atop heavy, processed guitars.

Faith No More – Discography (1985-2015)

Faith No More - Discography (1985-2015)

With their fusion of heavy metal, funk, hip-hop, and progressive rock, Faith No More have earned a substantial cult following. By the time they recorded their first album in 1985, the band had already had a string of lead vocalists, including Courtney Love; their debut, We Care a Lot, featured Chuck Mosley’s abrasive vocals but was driven by Jim Martin’s metallic guitar. Faith No More’s next album, 1987’s Introduce Yourself, was a more cohesive and impressive effort; for the first time, the rap and metal elements didn’t sound like they were fighting each other Continue reading “Faith No More – Discography (1985-2015)”
