Lou Reed – The RCA & Arista Album Collection (2016) [17CD Box Set]

Lou Reed - The RCA & Arista Album Collection (2016) [17CD Box Set]

In 1972, Lou Reed was a minor cult hero to a handful of rock critics and left-of-center music fans who championed his former band, the Velvet Underground, but he was unknown to the mainstream music audience. By 1986, Reed was a rock & roll icon, widely hailed as a master songwriter and one of the founding fathers of punk, glam, noise rock, and any number of other vital rock subgenres; he even scored a few hits along the way.

The Dave Brubeck Quartet – Time Out (1959) [1992, MasterSound Remastered]

The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Time Out (1959) [1992, MasterSound Remastered]

Dave Brubeck’s defining masterpiece, Time Out is one of the most rhythmically innovative albums in jazz history, the first to consciously explore time signatures outside of the standard 4/4 beat or 3/4 waltz time. It was a risky move — Brubeck’s record company wasn’t keen on releasing such an arty project Continue reading “The Dave Brubeck Quartet – Time Out (1959) [1992, MasterSound Remastered]”

Carole king – Tapestry (1971) [1994, MasterSound Remastered]

Carole king - Tapestry (1971) [1994, MasterSound Remastered]

Carole King brought the fledgling singer/songwriter phenomenon to the masses with Tapestry, one of the most successful albums in pop music history. A remarkably expressive and intimate record, it’s a work of consummate craftsmanship. Always a superior pop composer, King reaches even greater heights as a performer; new songs like the hits “It’s Too Late” and “I Feel the Earth Move” rank solidly with past glories Continue reading “Carole king – Tapestry (1971) [1994, MasterSound Remastered]”

Liam Gallagher – As You Were (2017) [Japanese Edition]

Liam Gallagher - As You Were (2017) [Japanese Edition]

As You Were was recorded in two locations. Greg Kurstin performed all of the instruments on the four songs that he produced (“Wall Of Glass,” “Paper Crown,” “Come Back To Me” and the psychedelic whoosh of “It Doesn’t Have To Be That Way”), while Dan Grech-Marguerat produced the remainder of the album at Snap! Studios in London. Continue reading “Liam Gallagher – As You Were (2017) [Japanese Edition]”

Duran Duran – Discography (1981-2015)

Duran Duran - Discography (1981-2015)

Duran Duran personified new wave for much of the mainstream audience. And for good reason. Duran Duran’s reputation was built through music videos, which accentuated their fashion-model looks and glamorous sense of style. Without music videos, it’s likely that their pop-funk — described by the group as the Sex Pistols-meet-Chic — would never have made them international pop stars.

Pacific Daydream an album full of the melodic mastery and craftsmanship for which Weezer are known – is a record that navigates the uncertainty between reality and dreams, blurring the line between the listener knowing if they are daydreaming the world of the album, or if the world of the album is daydreaming them.

Survivor – Discography (1979-2009)

Survivor - Discography (1979-2009)

Survivor’s brand of melodic, hard, album-oriented rock netted the group several hits during the 1980s, including two smash themes from Rocky films, but never quite matched the success or consistency of contemporaries like Foreigner. Survivor was founded in 1978 by guitarist/keyboardist Jim Peterik (formerly the lead singer of the Ides of March) with guitarist Frankie Sullivan; the two recruited lead singer Dave Bickler and recorded a self-titled debut album as a trio with studio musicians Dennis Johnson on bass and Gary Smith on drums.

Robert Plant – Discography (1982-2014)

Robert Plant - Discography (1982-2014)

In 1968, a naïve young singer from the Black Country hills in England named Robert Plant was discovered wailing the blues by veteran session guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist/keyboardist John Paul Jones. When Plant recommended his friend John Bonham as the drummer, one of the most successful bands in rock history was born: Led Zeppelin. Continue reading “Robert Plant – Discography (1982-2014)”

Elvis With The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra – The Wonder Of You (2016)

Elvis With The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra - The Wonder Of You (2016)

The Wonder Of You: Elvis Presley With The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra presents the iconic artist’s unmistakable voice and most dramatic original performances augmented with lush new orchestral accompaniment.

Croce’s debut ABC album was also his commercial breakthrough, topping the charts for five weeks, largely due to the comic, up-tempo title tune, a story song about competing pool hustlers, although Croce also reached the Top 20 with the change-of-pace ballad “Operator (That’s Not the Way It Feels).” Just after his death, ABC issued the track “Time in a Bottle,” and a newly ironic message propelled it to number one.

Gene Vincent – The Gene Vincent Box Set: Complete Capitol and Columbia Recordings 1956-1964 (1990)

Gene Vincent - The Gene Vincent Box Set: Complete Capitol and Columbia Recordings 1956-1964 (1990)

Six CDs containing the complete Capitol and EMI-Columbia recordings by Vincent, from 1956 through 1964. The 151 tracks may seem excessive, but the sound glitters, and since most of the post-1962 material was never issued in the United States, this stuff could be revelatory to serious fans. And the booklet is filled with detailed notes, sessionographies, and great photos.

Whitesnake – Whitesnake (1987) [2017, Remastered, 30th Anniversary, 2CD]

Whitesnake - Whitesnake (1987) [2017, Remastered, 30th Anniversary, 2CD]

Soon after its release in April 1987, WHITESNAKE became a huge success around the world, selling multi million copies. It peaked at #2 on the Billboard album chart and spawned four popular singles: “Still Of The Night,” “Give Me All Your Love,” “Is This Love” (which reached #2) and the #1 hit “Here I Go Again.” Including the newly remastered album expanded with a selection of unreleased bonus recordings.

Uriah Heep - Living The Dream (2018)

Uriah Heep are releasing their anticipated brand new studio album – the 25th in their storied career – which will be titled, appropriately enough, Living The Dream . “We have been together for 47 years and we have seen many bands come and go, so in effect we are Still Living The Dream, so it was the perfect title for the new album, says Uriah Heep guitarist and founding member Mick Box. Famed Canadian engineer, Jay Ruston has been called in to produce the album. Continue reading “Uriah Heep – Living The Dream (2018)”
