UPDATE: ADDED CD-LAYER RIP!!!

Baby I’m-A Want You is Bread’s best album, showcasing its soft and hard sides (yes, Bread had a hard side) at their respective peaks. “Mother Freedom,” with its crunchy James Griffin guitar solo, and the superb soft rocker “Baby I’m-A Want You” made a brilliant opening which the rest of the album had a hard time matching.

Label: Universal | Japan | Cat#: UIGY-9544 | Genre: Progressive Rock

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.

Janis Joplin – Pearl (1971) [1993, MasterSound Remastered]

Janis Joplin - Pearl (1971) [1993, MasterSound Remastered]

Janis Joplin’s second masterpiece (after Cheap Thrills), Pearl was designed as a showcase for her powerhouse vocals, stripping down the arrangements that had often previously cluttered her music or threatened to drown her out. Thanks also to a more consistent set of songs, the results are magnificent — given room to breathe, Joplin’s trademark rasp conveys Continue reading “Janis Joplin – Pearl (1971) [1993, MasterSound Remastered]”

Richard Wagner / Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin / Marek Janowski – Lohengrin (2012) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Richard Wagner / Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin / Marek Janowski - Lohengrin (2012) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Janowski’s Wagner cycle arrives at Lohengrin and by this point in the series some things can safely be relied on. The first is Janowski’s penchant for fast tempi which, in this context, carries the welcome advantage that each act fits onto one disc. It seldom feels rushed, however. When he broadens out it is for the more famously contemplative moments, such as In fernem Land or Einsam in truben tagen. In fact, the dawn interlude in the third act begins remarkably slowly but gathers pace as it develops, an effect that not everyone will enjoy.
