B.B. King was 77 years old when Reflections was released, which perhaps entitled him to reflect back on the song standards the album contained. Despite advancing age, King had already been unusually busy on the recording front for a septuagenarian, turning out the gold-selling duets album Deuces Wild in 1997, Blues on the Bayou in 1998, Let the Good Times Roll: The Music of Louis Jordan in 1999, the double-platinum Riding With the King with Eric Clapton and Makin’ Love Is Good for You in 2000, and the seasonal recording A Christmas Celebration of Hope in 2002.

The Zombies – The EP Collection (1992)

The Zombies - The EP Collection (1992)

Excellent collection of Zombies EPs from 1964 to 1966. Most Americans got turned on to The Zombies after they’d already broken up, via the belated US release of “Time Of The Season.” Casual fans know “Time…,” “She’s Not There” (in both mono and stereo here) and “Tell Her No” Continue reading “The Zombies – The EP Collection (1992)”

Total Size: 877 MB
Label: BMG Rights Management | Genre: Alternative Rock & Indie

Ever since the Smiths cut Twinkle’s 1965 obscurity “Golden Lights” in 1986, Morrissey has exhibited a knack for curious covers. Usually, he saved other people’s songs for the stage, sometimes sneaking a tune onto a B-side, but he never dedicated himself to covering his favorite tunes until 2019’s California Son.

Donovan – Troubadour: The Definitive Collection 1964-1976 (1992)

Donovan - Troubadour: The Definitive Collection 1964-1976 (1992)

While by no means a complete retrospective, this two-disc compilation contains a healthy sampling from Donovan’s first dozen years as a formidable musical figure. His chameleon-like sensibilities not only adapted to, but likewise defined the ’60s folk, pop, acid rock and the scene of swingin’ London. As well as hitting some of the more obvious high points, Donovan — who personally oversaw the project — included a couple of unissued demos (“London Town”/”Codine”), alternate versions (“Museum”/”Superlungs”/”Riki Tiki Tavi”) and previously unearthed titles (“Breezes Of Patchulie”/”Age Of Treason”/”What The Soul Desires”) Continue reading “Donovan – Troubadour: The Definitive Collection 1964-1976 (1992)”

Rick Wakeman – Rick Wakeman’s Greatest Hits (1994)

Rick Wakeman - Rick Wakeman's Greatest Hits (1994)

This Greatest Hits double-disc release is both utterly deceiving and painfully disappointing, since its tracks are made up of fabricated instrumental pieces of Rick Wakeman’s album cuts. Played by Wakeman, the songs are glossed-over remakes that may be true to their original note form, but are not the actual tracks from their previously released albums. Coming off like synthesized Muzak, popular favorites such as “Merlin the Magician,” “The Journey,” and Yes’ “Starship Trooper” lack depth, color, or energy, with only their familiar rhythms and melodies remaining Continue reading “Rick Wakeman – Rick Wakeman’s Greatest Hits (1994)”

Papa Roach – F.E.A.R. (2015) [Japanese SHM-CD Edition]

Papa Roach - F.E.A.R. (2015) [Japanese SHM-CD Edition]

The ninth studio album from California’s Papa Roach, 2015’s F.E.A.R. finds the journeyman hard rock outfit delivering more of its bombastic, high-energy sound. F.E.A.R. was produced by Kevin Churko (Ozzy Osbourne, Five Finger Death Punch) with assistance from his son Kane Churko, and the album’s title is an acronym that stands for “Face Everything And Rise.” The dark, aggressive irony behind this sentiment remains Continue reading “Papa Roach – F.E.A.R.

Deep Purple – Discography (1968 – 2014) UPDATE

Deep Purple - Discography (1968 - 2014)

Deep Purple survived a seemingly endless series of lineup changes and a dramatic mid-career shift from grandiose progressive rock to ear-shattering heavy metal to emerge as a true institution of the British hard rock community; once credited in The Guinness Book of World Records as the globe’s loudest band, their revolving-door roster launched the careers of performers including Ritchie Blackmore, David Coverdale, and Ian Gillan.

Kenny Rogers took a bit of a chance in releasing this loosly based concept album at the time, but boy, did it pay off! Sales for the album went through the roof, as the title track and “She Believes In Me” became pop crossover hits, with the latter reaching the pop Top 10. Later, “The Gambler” was turned into a string of made-for-television movies. Continue reading “Kenny Rogers – The Gambler (1978) {1980, MFSL Remastered, CD-Format + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip}”

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols is the first and only studio album by English punk rock group Sex Pistols, released on 27 October 1977, through Virgin Records.

Suzi Quatro – The Best Of Suzi Quatro (1996)

Suzi Quatro - The Best Of Suzi Quatro (1996)

Suzi Quatro was hardly the first Tough Girl in rock & roll — there were plenty of precursors, from Wanda Jackson and the Shangri-Las to Grace Slick and Janis Joplin — but Quatro codified a type of rock & roll woman who didn’t exist before she took the stage, one who looked as tough as the guys and wasn’t merely a singer but also an instrumentalist, the leader of the band who made the noise right Continue reading “Suzi Quatro – The Best Of Suzi Quatro (1996)”

Various Artists – Music From The Movies: Featuring British Movies 1937-57 (2008)

Various Artists - Music From The Movies: Featuring British Movies 1937-57 (2008)

This release celebrates the wonderful music written for British films during the 1930s, ’40s and ’50s by composers better-known for their works in the classical realm and for the concert hall. Vaughan Williams’ rousing music from the films The Loves of Joanna Godden and The 49th Parallel is heard, as is Walton’s famous Spitfire Fugue from The First of the Few.
