Roger Hodgson – Albums Collection (1984 – 2010)

Roger Hodgson - Albums Collection (1984 - 2010)

Best known for his stint fronting art pop hitmakers Supertramp, Roger Hodgson was born in Portsmouth, England, on March 21, 1950. While growing up in Oxford, Hodgson started playing guitar before he was a teenager, and was soon writing songs while at boarding school. He began recording during the late ’60s, issuing a single in 1969 as part of the session band Argosy with Elton John (then known as Reg Dwight).

Jeff Lynne’s ELO – From Out Of Nowhere (2019)

Jeff Lynne's ELO - From Out Of Nowhere (2019)

Unlike either its predecessor Alone in the Universe or 2001’s Zoom, From out of Nowhere didn’t appear after a prolonged period of silence from Jeff Lynne’s ELO. It arrived in November of 2019, nearly exactly four years after Alone in the Universe, a rapid turnaround that recalls Lynne’s work schedule as a bandleader and producer in the 1970s and ’80s. That’s not the only way From out of Nowhere conjures memories of the past. Continue reading “Jeff Lynne’s ELO – From Out Of Nowhere (2019)”

King Crimson – On (And Off) The Road (2016) [19 Disc, Box Set]

King Crimson - On (And Off) The Road (2016) [19 Disc, Box Set]

The 19-disc limited edition box set ‘On (and Off) The Road’ presents a complete overview of the enduringly popular 1980’s incarnation of King Crimson.

The Moody Blues – Every Good Boy Deserves Favour (1971) [1995, MFSL, Remastered]

The Moody Blues - Every Good Boy Deserves Favour (1971) [1995, MFSL, Remastered]

The best-realized of their classic albums, Every Good Boy Deserves Favour was also the last of the group’s albums for almost a decade to be done under reasonably happy and satisfying circumstances — for the last time with this lineup, they went into the studio with a reasonably full song bag and a lot of ambition and brought both as far as time would allow, across close to four months (interrupted by a tour of the United States right in the middle).

The Moody Blues – In Search Of The Lost Chord (1968) [1993, MFSL, Remastered]

The Moody Blues - In Search Of The Lost Chord (1968) [1993, MFSL, Remastered]

In Search of the Lost Chord is the album on which the Moody Blues discovered drugs and mysticism as a basis for songwriting and came up with a compelling psychedelic creation, filled with songs about Timothy Leary and the astral plane and other psychedelic-era concerns.

The Moody Blues – Days of Future Passed (1967) [1989, MFSL, Remastered]

The Moody Blues - Days of Future Passed (1967) [1989, MFSL, Remastered]

This album marked the formal debut of the psychedelic-era Moody Blues; though they’d made a pair of singles featuring new (as of 1966) members Justin Hayward and John Lodge, Days of Future Passed was a lot bolder and more ambitious.

he band’s fifth release, Rain Dances is Camel at its best, offering the most consistent and representative package in their saga. The addition of Caravan-cofounder Richard Sinclair proves profitable, as do a few colorist touches by Brian Eno on “Elke.” Mel Collins’ woodwinds are among the highlights, especially on “Tell Me” and the title track. From beginning to end, this project flows gracefully. Continue reading “Camel – Rain Dances (1977) {2014, Japan, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip}”

Camel – Moonmadness (1976) [2014, Japan, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Camel - Moonmadness (1976) [2014, Japan, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Abandoning the lovely soundscapes of Snow Goose, Camel delved into layered guitar and synthesizers similar to those of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here on the impressive Moonmadness. Part of the reason behind the shift in musical direction was the label’s insistence that Camel venture into more commercial territory after the experimental Snow Goose, and it is true that the music on Moonmadness is more akin to traditional English progressive rock, even though it does occasionally dip into jazz-fusion territory with syncopated rhythms and shimmering keyboards.

Camel – The Snow Goose (1975) [2011, Japan, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Camel - The Snow Goose (1975) [2011, Japan, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Camel’s classic period started with The Snow Goose, an instrumental concept album based on a novella by Paul Gallico. Although there are no lyrics on the album — two songs feature wordless vocals — the music follows the emotional arc of the novella’s story, which is about a lonely man named Rhayader who helps nurse a wounded snow goose back to health with the help of a young girl called Fritha he recently befriended.

Electric Light Orchestra – Face The Music (1975) [1993, MasterSound, 24-Karat Gold Disc, Remastered]

Electric Light Orchestra - Face The Music (1975) [1993, MasterSound, 24-Karat Gold Disc, Remastered]

Electric Light Orchestra’s more modest follow-up to Eldorado is a very solid album, if not as bold or unified. It was also their first recorded at Musicland in Munich, which became Jeff Lynne’s preferred venue for cutting records. At the time, he was also generating songs at a breakneck pace and had perfected the majestic, quasi-Beatles-type style (sort of high-wattage Magical Mystery Tour) introduced two albums earlier. The sound is stripped down a bit Continue reading “Electric Light Orchestra – Face The Music (1975) [1993, MasterSound, 24-Karat Gold Disc, Remastered]”

The Moody Blues - Long Distance Voyager (1981) [2014, Japanese SHM-SACD, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Long Distance Voyager is the tenth album by The Moody Blues, first released in May 1981 on the group’s Threshold record label. It was the group’s first album featuring keyboardist Patrick Moraz (who previously had worked with bands such as Refugee and Yes) in place of co-founder Mike Pinder, who left after Octave in 1978.
