Roy Orbison – The Soul Of Rock And Roll (2008) [4CD Box Set]

Roy Orbison - The Soul Of Rock And Roll (2008) [4CD Box Set]

In 1988, Columbia Records released a four-disc Roy Orbison retrospective called The Legendary Roy Orbison. It contained 74 tracks. It was a great package except for one thing: it sounded terrible, as the mastering techniques in the first days of the CD were not what they are now. The Soul of Rock and Roll, issued by Sony Legacy in 2008, is an enormous improvement in the sonic arena, just for starters. This four-disc collection contains 107 tracks (33 more than the previous box) with selections from all the labels Orbison recorded for.

It’s hard to blame Noel Gallagher for opting for stability over adventure once he disbanded Oasis. After spending nearly 20 years battling his brother Liam, he needed to take things easy, and if his solo records — Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds (2011) and Chasing Yesterday (2015) — were a little too calm, consider it a consequence of navigating himself out of chaos.

The Who – Quadrophenia: Live In London (2014) [Deluxe Edition, 2CD + DVD + 2BD + Hi-Res]

The Who - Quadrophenia: Live In London (2014) [Deluxe Edition, 2CD + DVD + 2BD + Hi-Res]

When the Who initially attempted to tour Quadrophenia in 1974, the results were a disaster. The band performed the rock opera alongside a series of backing tapes containing synthesizers and sound effects, a decision that put the mercurial Who into a straitjacket and led to uncharacteristically restrained performances. For years, the legend that Quadrophenia didn’t lend itself to the stage persisted but things started to change in 1996 Continue reading “The Who – Quadrophenia: Live In London (2014) [Deluxe Edition, 2CD + DVD + 2BD + Hi-Res]”

T. Rex – Electric Warrior (1971) [2003, Reissue, CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

T. Rex - Electric Warrior (1971) [2003, Reissue, CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The album that essentially kick-started the U.K. glam rock craze, Electric Warrior completes T.Rex’s transformation from hippie folk-rockers into flamboyant avatars of trashy rock & roll. There are a few vestiges of those early days remaining in the acoustic-driven ballads, but Electric Warrior spends most of its time in a swinging, hip-shaking groove powered by Marc Bolan’s warm electric guitar. Continue reading “T. Rex – Electric Warrior (1971) [2003, Reissue, CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Andy Gibb – Discography (1977-1991)

Andy Gibb - Discography (1977-1991)

Once the Bee Gees experienced a career revival with the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack in 1977, the Gibb brothers’ younger sibling Andy began his own solo career. Following his brothers’ disco style, Andy Gibb’s first three singles (“I Just Want to Be Your Everything,” “(Love Is) Thicker Than Water,” and “Shadow Dancing”) all hit number one. Three more consecutive Top Ten hits followed, cementing his overnight sensation status. Continue reading “Andy Gibb – Discography (1977-1991)”

R.E.M. - Reveal (2001) [2005, Reissue, DVD-Audio + Hi-Res]

Reveal is the 12th studio album by American alternative rock band R.E.M., released in 2001 on Warner Bros. After having adjusted to former drummer Bill Berry’s departure and releasing Up to mixed response in 1998, R.E.M. released the more upbeat Reveal, co-produced with long-time collaborator Patrick McCarthy. The album received generally positive reviews from music critics. Continue reading “R.E.M. – Reveal (2001) [2005, Reissue, DVD-Audio + Hi-Res]”

Mannheim Steamroller – Fresh Aire 8 (2000) [2016, Audio Fidelity Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Mannheim Steamroller - Fresh Aire 8 (2000) [2016, Audio Fidelity Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Fresh Aire 8 is the final album in the Mannheim Steamroller Fresh Aire series. Fresh Aire 8 has a full sound that offers a well-balanced blend of synthesizers and orchestra richly augmented by the London Symphony. Always thematic affairs, the topic this time is Infinity and how it relates to all facets of human life…love, art, philosophy, mathematics and of course music. This allows for some rather bizarre musical pieces as classic Mannheim Steamroller riffs weave their way through the tapestry of new sounds.

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.
