Alice Cooper – Discography (1969 – 2018)

Alice Cooper - Discography (1969 - 2018)

Originally, there was a band called Alice Cooper led by a singer named Vincent Damon Furnier. Under his direction, Alice Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical and violent brand of heavy metal that was designed to shock. Drawing equally from horror movies, vaudeville, heavy metal, and garage rock, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood, and huge boa constrictors, all coordinated by the heavily made-up Furnier Continue reading “Alice Cooper – Discography (1969 – 2018)”

Sam Cooke – Portrait Of A Legend 1951-1964 (2003) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Sam Cooke - Portrait Of A Legend 1951-1964 (2003) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Some 46 years after his first pop hit, and 39 years after his death, comes only the second attempt at a comprehensive Sam Cooke collection. Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 eclipses RCA’s early-’80s The Man and His Music, going it better in running time but losing some important recordings — “That’s Heaven to Me” and “Soothe Me,” arguably one of Cooke’s most important songs — in the process of summing up his career.

Sam Cooke – Tribute To The Lady (1959) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Sam Cooke - Tribute To The Lady (1959) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Tribute to the Lady is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Sam Cooke, released in 1959. It was recorded in tribute to jazz vocalist Billie Holiday, who died later that year. The backing band is the René Hall Orchestra. Continue reading “Sam Cooke – Tribute To The Lady (1959) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Sam Cooke – Ain’t That Good News (1964) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Sam Cooke - Ain't That Good News (1964) [2003, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The last of his studio albums released in his lifetime, Sam Cooke’s Ain’t That Good News offers a lot of superb material, pointing in several directions that, alas, were to go largely unexplored. The central number is, of course, the earth-shattering “A Change Is Gonna Come,” with its soaring gospel sound and the most elaborate production of any song in Cooke’s output.

Ry Cooder & V.M. Bhatt – A Meeting By The River (1993) {2008, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip}

A Meeting by the River can best be described as a spontaneous outpouring of music, unhindered by convention or form, brought into being by musicians so supremely capable that the music is never labored, the technique of their craft always subservient to the final product. Cooder and Bhatt are genuine masters of the guitar and mohan vina, respectively. The latter, an instrument created by Bhatt himself, is a sort of hybrid between a guitar and a vichitra vina, and is played with a metal slide. Continue reading “Ry Cooder & V.M. Bhatt – A Meeting By The River (1993) {2008, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip}”

Otis Redding – Otis Blue / Otis Redding Sings Soul (1965) [2016, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Otis Redding - Otis Blue / Otis Redding Sings Soul (1965) [2016, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Otis Redding’s third album, and his first fully realized album, presents his talent unfettered, his direction clear, and his confidence emboldened, with fully half the songs representing a reach that extended his musical grasp. More than a quarter of this album is given over to Redding’s versions of songs by Sam Cooke, his idol, who had died the previous December, and all three are worth owning and hearing.

Jeff Lynne’s ELO – Wembley Or Bust (2017) [CD + DVD]

Jeff Lynne's ELO - Wembley Or Bust (2017) [CD + DVD]

Jeff Lynne revived Electric Light Orchestra in 2015 — due to legal reasons, they were now called Jeff Lynne’s ELO — releasing a comeback album called Alone in the Universe and steadily mounting a return to the road. Several dates happened in 2016, but the tour reached its apex in June 2017, when the group played in front of 60,000 people at London’s Wembley Stadium. Released five months after that June 24 gig, Wembley or Bust — which was accompanied by a concert film — features the entirety of the gig, and if it’s not heard too closely, it could sometimes be mistaken for an ELO greatest-hits album.

Mötley Crüe – The End: Live In Los Angeles (2016) [CD + Blu-ray]

Mötley Crüe - The End: Live In Los Angeles (2016) [CD + Blu-ray]

On December 31, 2015, legendary rock icons Mötley Crüe completed their 35-year touring career as a band with a spectacular final concert at Staples Center in their hometown of Los Angeles, CA, just 10 miles from the Sunset Strip where the band’s infamous and decadent career first launched. The band thrilled the sold-out arena with performances of such mega-hits as Kickstart My Heart, Girls, Girls, Girls, Home Sweet Home and Dr. Feelgood.

Linkin Park – Discography (2000-2017)

Linkin Park - Discography (2000-2017)

Although rooted in alternative metal, Linkin Park became one of the most successful acts of the 2000s by welcoming elements of hip-hop, modern rock, and atmospheric electronica into their music. The band’s rise was indebted to the aggressive rap-rock movement made popular by the likes of Korn and Limp Bizkit, a movement that paired grunge’s alienation with a bold, buzzing soundtrack. Linkin Park added a unique spin to that formula, however, focusing as much on the vocal interplay between singer Chester Bennington and rapper Mike Shinoda as the band’s muscled instrumentation, which layered DJ effects atop heavy, processed guitars.

Faith No More – Discography (1985-2015)

Faith No More - Discography (1985-2015)

With their fusion of heavy metal, funk, hip-hop, and progressive rock, Faith No More have earned a substantial cult following. By the time they recorded their first album in 1985, the band had already had a string of lead vocalists, including Courtney Love; their debut, We Care a Lot, featured Chuck Mosley’s abrasive vocals but was driven by Jim Martin’s metallic guitar. Faith No More’s next album, 1987’s Introduce Yourself, was a more cohesive and impressive effort; for the first time, the rap and metal elements didn’t sound like they were fighting each other Continue reading “Faith No More – Discography (1985-2015)”

The Moody Blues – Discography (1965 – 2014)

The Moody Blues - Discography (1965 - 2014)

Although they’re best known today for their lush, lyrically and musically profound (some would say bombastic) psychedelic-era albums, the Moody Blues started out as one of the better R&B-based combos of the British Invasion. The group’s history began in Birmingham, England with Ray Thomas (harmonica, vocals) and Mike Pinder (keyboards, vocals), who had played together in El Riot & the Rebels and the Krew Cats.
