During 1969 and 1970, CCR was dismissed by hipsters as a bubblegum pop band and the sniping had grown intolerable, at least to John Fogerty, who designed Pendulum as a rebuke to critics. He spent time polishing the production, bringing in keyboards, horns, even a vocal choir. His songs became self-consciously serious and tighter, working with the aesthetic of the rock underground Continue reading “Creedence Clearwater Revival – Pendulum (1970) [1996, DCC Remastered, 24-Karat Gold]”

Irish songwriter, composer, vocalist, musician and poet, Brian Flanagan has worked with artists from diverse musical backgrounds such as Michael Flatley, Nadine Coyle, Eric Bibb, Nathan Carter, Finbar Furey, Brian Kennedy and Sharon Shannon. Brian is renowned for his ability to write to order, emotionally charged pieces that are immediately engaging. Love, loss, self-pity, recognizing chances and taking them – or not, almost mystical nature experiences, life-changing encounters, art and artists, environmental protection, human rights: it is truly a broad, moving and very current spectrum of themes which Irish singer-songwriter Brian Flanagan has worked through in the eleven tracks on this Audiophile SACD.

While recording her 2019 album War in My Mind with producer Rob Cavallo, Beth Hart sang a version of Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love” during a bit of downtime in the studio. Impressed, Cavallo suggested that Hart record an entire album of Zeppelin covers, but the singer demurred, saying she needed to be in a specific mindset to sing those songs: “you’ve got to be pissed off to hit that right.” Hart got pissed off during the COVID-19 pandemic, so she summoned Cavallo and made A Tribute to Led Zeppelin.

There’s truly enough warmth and good vibes to go around on Red Hot Chili Peppers’ 12th full-length, Unlimited Love. Not only did the band re-form their seminal lineup, welcoming guitarist John Frusciante back into the fold after a decade-long absence, but they also reunited with longtime production guru Rick Rubin, who was swapped out for Danger Mouse on their last album, 2016’s The Getaway.

Capturing some of their chart-topping smashes and other key tracks, Tears for Fears marks a monumental career with their collection Tears Roll Down: Greatest Hits 82-92. Toward the end of the praise surrounding their third album, 1991’s Seeds of Love, Curt Smith left the band. Roland Orzabal was left to sail the ship alone, and the strong success dwindled years later. However, this dozen-track compilation showcases some of the band’s early tracks heavily dominated by pulsating bass drops and heavy synth beats.

Blood, Sweat & Tears are no strangers to oldies radio but even so, they only have a handful singles in constant rotation: “You’ve Made Me So Very Happy,” “Spinning Wheel,” “And When I Die,” and maybe “Hi-De-Ho.” “You’re the One,” a Top 10 Adult Contemporary single from 1976, is rarely heard and that’s just one of many songs released on the A- and B-sides of singles released between 1968 and 1976, all of which are compiled on Real Gone’s 2014 double-disc set The Complete Columbia Singles.

From teen idol to international headliner, English singer/songwriter and consummate showman Robbie Williams graduated from late-’90s boy band Take That to become a successful solo artist, embracing a mischievous bad-boy image while becoming one of the U.K.’s most prominent entertainers and one of the best-selling artists of all time. Following his stint with Take That — during which time Williams and his bandmates issued three multi-platinum hit albums — his star grew even brighter, with a string of chart-topping albums and sales that surpassed Take That by a wide margin.

One of the first and longest-lasting country-rock groups, Poco had their roots in the dying embers of Buffalo Springfield. After Neil Young and Stephen Stills, the co-founders of that group, exited in the spring of 1968, only guitarist/singer Richie Furay and bassist Jim Messina remained to complete the group’s swan song, Last Time Around. The final Springfield track, “Kind Woman,” included only Furay and Messina, with a guest appearance on steel guitar by Rusty Young — at the time, he was something of a rarity as a talented lap steel guitarist Continue reading “Poco – Albums Collection”

The first album from the Clayton-Thomas-fronted band appeared in 1969, spawned four high chart hits, won a Grammy as Album of the Year, and went on to sell some three million units.
