Cheap Trick never stopped working, persevering through both good times and bad. The 2010s wound up as something of a latter-day renaissance for the group, as they found a familiar groove with the adoption of Rick Nielsen’s son Daxx as their regular drummer in 2010. At the end of the decade, they released a flurry of albums all recorded with co-producer Julian Raymond. In Another World Continue reading “Cheap Trick – In Another World (2021)”

The past nine months have been a musical gift for Tom Petty fans. His family, producers and fellow Heartbreakers have culled through virtually everything from the Wildflowers era to release an embarrassing amount of amazing music. Last fall gave us Wildflowers & All the Rest, a multi-volume set of bonus tracks, demos and live cuts. Continue reading “Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers – Angel Dream (2021)”

This is a particularly interesting release because it features the 1978 version of Manhattan Transfer performing at three different concerts. This is how the ensemble sounded live when Laurel Masse was still in the lineup along with Tim Hauser, Janis Siegel and Alan Paul. The pacesetting vocal group (accompanied by a quintet that includes guitarist Wayne Johnson and Don Roberts on reeds) runs through 18 songs, many of which are quite brief.

The guitarist was inspired at the age of 13 during a performance by Chet Atkins on the Perry Como Show. He mae his first recording at age 15 and later played on George Benson’s White Rabbit album.

Body and Soul has Joe Jackson playing both hot- and cool-styled jazz songs, getting some worthy help from producer David Kershenbaum, who also lent Jackson a hand on his I’m the Man album. This is Jackson at his smoothest, from the fragility of “Not Here Not Now” to the earnestness of “Be My Number Two.” While both this song and “Happy Ending” charted fairly low in the U.K., the explosive “You Can’t Get What You Want” went to number 15 in the United States Continue reading “Joe Jackson – Body And Soul (1984) [2020, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

This is the stunning film & recording of Uriah Heep live in concert at the Astoria Theatre, London on November 8th 2003, featuring a glittering array of hits and special guest appearances by former Heep vocalist John Lawton and Heather Findlay of Mostly Autumn. This is the definitive proof that in the 21st Century Heep keep on rocking stronger than ever. Uriah Heep’s by-the-books progressive heavy metal made the British band one of the most popular hard rock groups of the early ’70s.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of “She’s The One,” we are releasing a remixed, remastered and re-imagined version of this album. The original album included several songs that were left off the original Wildflowers album (recently included as the “All The Rest” disc in the “Wildflowers & All The Rest” re-issue), so this re-release is an appropriate ending to the campaign celebrating the Wildflowers-era.

A brilliant, accomplished debut, Look Sharp! established Joe Jackson as part of that camp of angry, intelligent young new wavers (i.e., Elvis Costello, Graham Parker) who approached pop music with the sardonic attitude and tense, aggressive energy of punk.

This is the ultimate Neil Diamond record. Not necessarily the best — he’s at his most appealing crafting in the studio — but certainly the ultimate, capturing all the kitsch and glitz of Neil Diamond, the showman. And that also means that it’s not just loaded with flair, but with filler, songs like “Porcupine Pie,” “Soggy Pretzels,” and “And the Grass Won’t Pay No Mind” — attempts to write grand, sweeping epics that collapse under their own weight. Still, that’s part of the charm of Diamond and while it can sound unbearable on studio albums, it makes some sense here, surrounded by his pomp and circumstance.

As the youngest brother of the massively popular Gibb siblings, otherwise known as the Bee Gees, it’s no wonder that Andy Gibb was a superstar in his own right. An accomplished vocalist and writer, Gibb shot to the top of the charts with his 1977 debut Flowing Rivers. Shadow Dancing, released just one year later, effortlessly confirmed his ascension to the top of the pop pedestal. Working with his brothers again, Gibb wowed audiences with his easy-on-the-ears passionate pop. Continue reading “Andy Gibb – Shadow Dancing (1978) [Japan, CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]”
