Recorded at London’s Rainbow Theater in November of 1973, Somewhere Under the Rainbow captures Neil Young at the height of the Tonight’s the Night era, having finished that tumultuous album just months earlier and already taking the material to the stage. The Santa Monica Flyers, Neil’s backing band on this tour, consisted of pedal steel player Ben Keith, bassist Billy Talbot, drummer Ralph Molina, and Nils Lofgren jumping between piano, guitar, and even occasional accordion.

While promoting Metallica’s eleventh album, Lars Ulrich claimed 72 Seasons was “maybe the most friction-free record we’ve ever made” which is a fair assessment of the LP. Never before has Metallica seemed so comfortable being Metallica, embracing their identity as a collective and letting each member play to their strengths: Ulrich’s drums are pushed forward in the mix, Robert Trujillo roams wild with his bass, Kirk Hammett gets plenty of room to solo while James Hetfield processes all he’s learned in therapy.

When asked about his favorite instrument, Johann Wilhelm Wilms could only have answered: the orchestra. This statement probably sounds rather strange for a composer who, as a young pianist, was the number one among the piano virtuosos and teachers of his adopted city of Amsterdam and who was also appreciated as a flutist for decades; however, it is at least as plausible if one listens to one of his works for orchestra: every page of a Wilms Continue reading “Paolo Giacometti, Martin Sandhoff / Kölner Akademie / Michael Alexander Willens – Johann Wilhelm Wilms: Sinfonie und Solokonzerte (2007) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

While the speed-freak adrenaline heaviness and shrouded occult mystery of Tyranny and Mutation is the watermark for Blue Öyster Cult’s creative invention, it is Secret Treaties that is widely and critically regarded as the band’s classic. Issued in 1974, Secret Treaties is the purest distillation of all of BÖC’s strengths. Here the songs are expansive, and lush in their textures.

Coming off such conceptual, theatrical, sleazy hard rock records as the massively successful School’s Out (1972) and Billion Dollar Babies (1973), the Alice Cooper group decided that their next release would be more along the lines of their earlier, more straightforward work (à la Love It to Death). While Muscle of Love was a gold-certified Top Ten success, it performed below expectations (their previous two albums peaked at number two and number one, respectively) and would unfortunately prove to be the original Alice Cooper band’s last studio album together.

The kitsch enthusiast or novelty seeker will enjoy Ray Conniff’s I Can See Clearly Now. Known primarily for orchestral versions of contemporary songs, his recordings during the late ’60s and early ’70s as the Ray Conniff Singers included many straightforward recordings of current pop hits. This 1973 collection includes songs by Helen Reddy, Johnny Nash, the Fifth Dimension, Gallery, the Jackson 5, Albert Hammond, the Isley Brothers and Seals & Crofts! This fun easy listening album has only an average track listing, although it is a cheerful artifact of the early ’70s.

In January 1973, Perry Como traveled to Nashville and cut several tracks with Chet Atkins producing. RCA Victor quickly released his cover of Don McLean’s “And I Love You So,” which had appeared on the singer/songwriter’s little-heard 1970 debut album Tapestry, as a single, and when the disc showed signs of chart success (it eventually made the pop Top 40 and hit number one on the easy listening charts), Como and Atkins went back into the studio in March and April to complete an album by cutting versions of recent pop hits.
