Joe Satriani – Discography (1986 – 2018)

Joe Satriani - Discography (1986 - 2018)

The 1980s were a golden age for guitar heroes but even six-string slingers need a hero of their own. Enter Joe Satriani. More than a hero, Satriani was a mentor, setting an example of what could be done with the instrument and also serving as a teacher to such luminaries as Kirk Hammett, Charlie Hunter, Primus’ Larry LaLonde, and Steve Vai.

Journey – Discography (1975-2011)

Journey - Discography (1975-2011)

During their initial 14 years of existence (1973-1987), Journey altered their musical approach and their personnel extensively while becoming a top touring and recording band. The only constant factor was guitarist Neal Schon, a music prodigy who had been a member of Santana in 1971-1972. The original unit, which was named in a contest on KSAN-FM in San Francisco, featured Schon, bassist Ross Valory, drummer Prairie Prince (replaced by Aynsley Dunbar), and guitarist George Tickner (who left after the first album). Another former Santana member, keyboard player and singer Gregg Rolie, joined shortly afterward. Continue reading “Journey – Discography (1975-2011)”

Hubert Sumlin – Blues Guitar Boss (2005) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Hubert Sumlin - Blues Guitar Boss (2005) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The classic 1990 album reissued after Hubert’s sad recent death Hubert Sumlin was a true icon and a hugely influential guitar player. This 1990 studio album was undoubtedly the highlight of his solo recording career-a set of all original material, superb playing and a true commitment from all the participants. Hubert’s recent death has brought out the tributes and justly so. His career was chock full of amazing recordings and this is the very best of them that appeared under his own name Continue reading “Hubert Sumlin – Blues Guitar Boss (2005) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Smokie – The Best Of (2003)

Smokie - The Best Of (2003)

The English glam rock band was fronted by Chris Norman, who became known to American audiences for his duet with Suzi Quatro, “Stumblin’ In”, which became a top chart hit around the world. But Smokie was most popular in Europe in the late 1970’s with hits like “Laying Back in the Arms of Someone”, “Don’t Play Your Rock N Roll to Me”, their cover of “Needles And Pins” and “Living Next Door to Alice” (which features the “F” word uncensored and stayed that way even when performed on television) Continue reading “Smokie – The Best Of (2003)”

Donald Fagen – Discography (1982 – 2017)

Donald Fagen - Discography (1982 - 2017)

Donald Fagen was one of the two masterminds behind Steely Dan, the seminal jazz-pop band of the ’70s. Fagen’s solo work has been a continuation of the band’s work of the early ’80s — carefully constructed and arranged, intricately detailed pop songs that are more substantial than their stylish surface may indicate. His 1982 solo debut, The Nightfly, was the best album he had made in years; it covered the same ground as the last two Steely Dan albums, yet surpassed them in terms of ambition and achievement.

Jimi Hendrix – Both Sides Of The Sky (2018) [CD + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Jimi Hendrix - Both Sides Of The Sky (2018) [CD + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Both Sides of the Sky is another collection of high-quality studio recordings, dating from 1968-1970. It might surprise some that, 45-plus years after his death, there’s still good material that hasn’t been previously released, but Hendrix was recording nearly all the time at this point, whether they were demos done in his apartment, late-night jamming with friends, working on new material, or finishing/reworking older tracks.

The Clash – Sound System (2013) [Remastered, Box Set, 11CD + DVD]

The Clash - Sound System (2013) [Remastered, Box Set, 11CD + DVD]

Most box sets are designed to enshrine an artist in the amber of posterity. The idea is that the artist has transcended their time, that they can now be appreciated outside of the context of their era. The digital age, where recordings from the past sit comfortably with tunes from the present, accelerates this trend, suggesting that all the classic artists exist upon their own continuum, that their development was almost a product of self-divination.

Roy Orbison – Black & White Night 30 (1989) [2017, Remastered, CD + Blu-ray + Hi-Res]

Roy Orbison - Black & White Night 30 (1989) [2017, Remastered, CD + Blu-ray + Hi-Res]

Amazingly, it has been 30 years since Roy Orbison‘s 1987 television ‘comeback’ show A Black & White Night. To mark the occasion ‘Roy’s Boys’ – Alex Orbison and Roy Orbison Jnr – have gone back to the source footage and audio and re-edited, remastered and, if you are feeling fanciful, ‘re-imagined’ the television special, to create an expanded audio/visual document that will be available on CD/Blu-ray or CD/DVD Continue reading “Roy Orbison – Black & White Night 30 (1989) [2017, Remastered, CD + Blu-ray + Hi-Res]”

Art Garfunkel – Angel Clare (1973) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Art Garfunkel - Angel Clare (1973) [2018, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Garfunkel (he was billed without his first name here) had a lot riding on his debut solo album, and Angel Clare, named after a character in Thomas Hardy’s novel Tess of the d’Urbervilles, lived up to the heightened expectations for the man who had sung “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and other Simon & Garfunkel favorites. Garfunkel took no chances, issuing as the first single Jimmy Webb’s “All I Know,” which was arranged in a similar style to “Bridge” and made the Top Ten.
