The Beatles - Primal Colours (Unreleased Album) 1968
.jpg)
This was an intended release from 1968, but was pulled at the last minute. Many of these tracks would, however, later see the light of day, in slightly different form, in the wonderful White Album released later in 1968.
In May 1968, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison assembled at Kinfauns, George Harrison’s home in Esher, and demoed 23 songs. The majority of these songs were conceived during the group's visit to Rishikesh, India in the spring of 1968, where they undertook a transcendental meditation course with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
Track list:
1. Brian Epstein Blues
2. Back In The U.S.S.R.
3. A Case of The Blues
4. Blackbird
5. Piggies
6. Birthday
7. Yer Blues
8. Mother Natures Son
9. Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey
10. Child Of Nature
11. Helter Skelter
12. Junk
13. Honey Pie
14. Old Brown Shoe

Holly Golightly - Main Attraction

Release Date: Jun 5, 2001
By the time of her second solo release -- issued the same year Holly Golightly hung up her Thee Headcoatees go-go boots -- she had already established a separate identity from that lively garage rock combo. Sure, you'll still recognize that unmistakably cool, acerbic voice, but like her debut, The Good Things, Main Attraction falls into another genre altogether. Although it shares the pop smarts of Thee Headcoatees' best work (most of which consisted of covers or Billy Childish-penned originals), garage has been replaced by folk and country, and punk by soul and R&B. Meanwhile, the crazed horns on "If I Should Ever Leave" give that particular number a ska feel, while the languid psychedelia of "The Sign" and "Seashells" evokes the Paisley Underground of 1980s outfits like Rainy Day and Opal. To say that her sophomore effort, which was originally released in a limited edition by Germany's Teenage Kicks, represents a more "mature" Golightly -- which it does -- makes it sound as if she'd gone "soft," but nothing could be further from the truth. It's eclectic, to be sure, but slick or boring -- never. Main Attraction was reissued by the U.K.'s Damaged Goods in 2001.

Holly Golightly - Good Things

Release Date: Oct 5, 1995
Holly Golightly's solo debut is quite a departure from her usual gig as a member of the garage-rocking, Billy Childish-sponsored group Thee Headcoatees. But for a couple of tracks, Golightly and Thee Headcoatees drummer Bruce Brand create a low-key and introspective musical mood. The overall sound is still raw and live, but the tempos and performances are relaxed. Golightly's voice is very intimate and conversational. She sounds especially good when she harmonizes with herself to create a girl group sound. The songs she wrote are filled with wit and verve and not a little anger. The title track is a classic "you hurt me, you suck" type of song; in fact, most of the songs here are. It is a real broken-hearted breakup record. And Golightly has the good sense to cover a Wreckless Eric song, "Comedy Time." Good Things is a strong debut that definitely points the way to good things to come from Holly Golightly.
Track list:
1 Virtually Happy 3:30
2 Listen 2:25
3 Wherever You Were 2:39
4 The Good Things 3:09
5 Expert 3:08
6 Comedy Time 3:00

8 Without You 3:02
9 Anyotherway 3:00
10 The Ride #2 3:31
11 Every Word 3:14
12 The Last Time 2:20
13 Charm 2:54

Gram Parsons & Flying Burrito Brothers - Gram Parsons Archives Vol.1_Live at the Avalon Ballroom 1969

Release Date: Nov 6, 2007
Recording Date: 1967-Apr 6, 1969
It's very easy to underestimate the importance of Gram Parsons to American music. He never had anything close to a hit, and while he was pivotal in the creation of country-rock, and by rote, alternative country, none of his direct efforts at it (the Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo, an album and a half with the Flying Burrito Brothers, his own two solo albums) stirred up any kind of mass public acceptance. Yet three decades and on past his death, Parsons' fragile version of what he called "cosmic American music" (a seamless blending of country, blues and rock) continues to make him a both a cult figure and a continuing influence on musicians traveling a similar path and synthesis in the 21st century. Parsons probably came closest to realizing his "cosmic American music" dream during his brief stay as a founding member of the Flying Burrito Brothers, and so this double-disc release, which features well-recorded live sets from 1969 of the original Burritos lineup (Parsons, Chris Hillman, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Chris Ethridge, and Mike Clarke) opening two shows for the Grateful Dead at the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco on April 4 and April 6, is a true archival treasure, perhaps doubly so because it comes direct from the famed Grateful Dead tape vault. The real surprise here is the sound quality, which is excellent, and it's easy to hear Parsons and Hillman work their sometimes unsteady (but endearingly unsteady) vocal harmonies while all of the band instrumentation is mixed back a bit (but not alarmingly so, every nuance is audible). The band sounds limber and fresh, and the versions here of "Close Up the Honky Tonks," Little Richard's "Lucille" (one version each night, with the April 6 rendition being a tad faster), and Parsons and Hillman's compositional masterpiece, "Sin City" (again, two versions, one each night), are vintage Burritos in full glorious flight. There are also inspired covers of Hank Williams' "You Win Again" and George Jones' "She Once Lived Here," which gains a kind of fragile emotional power when filtered through Parsons' frail, halting vocal approach. Also included in the set are two demo recordings, a delicate harmony workout on Phil Everly's "When Will I Be Loved" from 1967, and a gorgeous solo piano version of "Thousand Dollar Wedding" taped in 1969, and which is, hands down, the emotional highlight of this collection. Fans of Parsons and the Flying Burrito Brothers are going to love Gram Parsons Archive, Vol.1 and the solid sound quality of these recordings will no doubt surprise and delight. A real find.

Holly Golightly - Up the Empire

Release Date: Feb 10, 1998
On this laid-back live outing, Holly Golightly sounds a little like a caffeinated Kendra Smith (Opal, Rainy Day). She eschews psych-rock in favor of folk, blues, and low-key R&B, but her insouciant delivery evokes a similar sort of casual, romantic world weariness -- not unlike the iconic character so enchantingly portrayed by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. The performances are loose and appealing, with spare instrumental backing spiked by frequent blasts of harmonica. The country-tinged original "If I Should Ever Leave" features the welcome addition of slide guitar and violin. There are plenty of whoops and hollers during the more rocking numbers -- from the audience or from the band; it's hard to tell -- but they rarely overwhelm or distract from the music. Up the Empire may not be the best place to start with Ms. Golightly's oeuvre, but it isn't a bad place to end up -- especially if you'd like to re-create the experience of an intimate, neon-lit juke joint where all the kids meet to tap their toes, snap their fingers, and clap their hands to the slinky beat.
Track list:
1 Won't Go Out
2 I Can't Stand It
3 Come the Day

Johnny Cash - Sings the Ballads of the True West [Bonus Track]

Release Date: Aug 27, 2002
Recording Date: Aug 14, 1959-Mar 23, 1965
One of the projects Johnny Cash wanted to do when he was on Sun Records was to record an album of songs from the Old West. Of course, Sam Phillips wouldn't hear of it, but the idea -- along with concept albums of gospel, train songs, and others -- all came to fruition when he moved to Columbia Records. This concept album is a 20-track set that combines songs and narrations, the bulk of which were recorded in 1965 (the lone exception is Carl Perkins' "The Ballad of Boot Hill," which originates from a 1959 session). The booklet includes Johnny's original liner notes to the album, along with song-by-song comments. One of Cash's best concept albums. [The 2002 CD reissue adds two tracks: the Peter LaFarge song "Rodeo Hand" (recorded at the sessions and eventually issued on a Bear Family import), and a one-minute instrumental alternate take of LaFarge's "Stampede."]
CD covers included
Track list:
1 Hiawatha's Vision 2:25
2 The Road to Kaintuck 2:43
3 The Shifting Whispering Sands, Pt. 1 2:54

Billy Childish & Holly Golightly - In Blood

Release Date: Dec 14, 1999
An excellent addition to the catalog of British garage-punk, icon Billy Childish teams up here with chanteuse Holly Golightly of thee Headcoatees. Her group is the female companion to his legendary Headcoats, and the duo share a passion for the monotony of lurching mono-chord riffs. Hence, In Blood is a concept album based around a message -- that three chords is too many. Backed by the Medway Delta Review, the band is effectively the Headcoats with the addition of Johnny Gibb of the Wildebeests. The group burn through a series of variations on the E chord -- staggering the beat and twisting the riff into every possible variation within the formula. The duos combined voices and lyrical wit make In Blood a kind of post-punk Lee Hazlewood/Nancy Sinatra affair. A compelling highlight in the expansive cannons of Billy Childish and Holly Golightly this comes highly recommended.
Track list:
1 Step Out 3:14
2 In Blood 3:16
3 Let Me Know You 3:28
4 You Got That Thing 3:00
5 Demolition Girl 3:42
6 Upside Mine 3:22

A John Waters Christmas

A John Waters Christmas is the type of kitschy Christmas compilation one would expect from the cult director, featuring such gems as Roger Christian's reading of "Little Mary Christmas," the ballad of an orphaned girl who is passed up for adoption year after year until Santa Claus finally brings her a new set of parents, and Tiny Tim's rendition of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," which is, in all earnestness, one of the most uplifting and beautifully sincere versions of the song ever recorded. Certainly the holiday season is the perfect time to exercise musical novelty, considering that any holiday CD will stay on the shelf for the majority of the year. Waters has picked the best and fuzziest numbers for this set, including (oddly) a modern composition by Chicago indie provocateurs the Coctails, which features Sea and Cake multi-instrumentalist Archer Prewitt. Their lovely contribution, "First Snowfall," fits into the scope of the collection remarkably well, snuggled between Rita Faye Wilson's charming "Sleigh Bells, Reindeer and Snow" and the brilliant album closer, "Santa Claus Is a Black Man." A John Waters Christmas is a great set to break in and celebrate the season with, no doubt, and there is little overlap with any other holiday releases. It should be noted that the bitter "Here Comes Fatty Claus," sung from the perspective of Santa's overworked and underappreciated employees (led by Rudolph), elevates this collection to the "Parental Advisory: Explicit Content" level, but this should be no surprise for fans of John Waters' productions.
Track list:
01.Fat Daddy - Fat Daddy
02.Tiny Tim - Rudolph The Red Nosed
03.Stormy Weather - Christmas Time Is Coming
04.Little Cindy - Happy Birthday Jesus
05.Rudolph And Gang - Here Comes Fatty Claus
06.Roger Christian - Little Mary Christmas
07.Big Dee Irwin And Little Eva - I Wish You A Merry Christmas
08.Jimmy Donley - Santa! Don't Pass Me By
09.Alvin And The Chipmunks - Sleigh Ride

A Date with John Waters

The last time the beloved cult director released a mix album under his own name, he gathered together an odd, intriguing, and nonstop fun passel of Christmas tunes. This time the auteur behind Hairspray, Pink Flamingos, and Polyester would like to suggest tunes to play on your next date -- with him. Of course, were you actually to date John Waters (and it's hard to imagine that John Waters has ever been on a real date), you should be aware going in that the man has pretty eclectic taste and a real sense of humor, and that he's something of a perv. So you would have to appreciate a collection that sets off with Patience and Prudence's virginal '50s ballad "Tonight You Belong to Me" (with a name like Patience and Prudence you expected something lurid?) and then dives right into Elton Motello's late-'70s punk onslaught "Jet Boy Jet Girl," with its graphic account of gay sex ("Jet boy, jet girl, gonna take you 'round the world/Jet boy, I'm gonna make you penetrate, I'm gonna make you be a girl"). It doesn't get any less kooky from there. Clarence "Frogman" Henry's "Ain't Got No Home" is a classic N'awlins R&B AM radio staple, but in this context it somehow ends up sounding nasty. Ditto for Ray Charles' "Night Time Is the Right Time." Of course, Waters would want to spin the late "Egg Lady" Edith Massey's version of the Four Seasons' "Big Girls Don't Cry," but it's a mite surprising that the mustachioed one would choose something as relatively sedate as "In Spite of Ourselves," by the singer/songwriters John Prine and Iris DeMent. (Maybe he thought her name was Iris Demented.) Josie Cotton's '80s sensation "Johnny Are You Queer?" is a natural fit, as is Mink Stole's "Sometimes I Wish I Had a Gun." Less so Dean Martin's "Hit the Road to Dreamland" and Eileen Barton's "If I Knew You Were Comin' I'd've Baked a Cake." Well, maybe not such a surprise on that last one, if you know how John Waters' mind works.
Track list:
01.Patience and Prudence - Tonight You Belong To Me
02.Elton Motello - Jet Boy Jet Girl
03.Clarence Frogman Henry - Ain't Got No Home
04.Mildred Bailey and Her Swing Band - I'd Love To Take Orders From You

Stereo Total - Juke Box Alarm
Release Date: Dec 7, 1999
Singing in German, French, English, Japanese, and Italian, Stereo Total are an über-hip, ultra-Euro electro-pop group from Berlin, who are capable of inducing massive booty wiggling. Infectious in the extreme, this foursome employs brash pop grooves, crunchy techno beats, and kitschy, cheese-ball lyrics to create what they like to call "sissy disco." On Juke-Box Alarm, the song "Heaven's in the Back Seat of My Cadillac" sounds like Thai hooker karaoke, while numbers like "Touche-Moi," "Party Anticonformiste," and "Nouvelle Vague" are fun, fabulous, and chic like some flashy, coiffed French maiden. This is a party platter that will keep things going until the wee hours. [Juke-Box Alarm was reissued in 2006 by Kill Rock Stars.]
Track list:
1 Holiday Inn 2:33
2 Comicstripteasegirl 1:41
3 Sweet Charlotte 1:31

Holly Golightly - Down Gina's at 3

Release Date: May 25, 2004
If anyone in rock & roll these days deserves to be called a chanteuse, it's Holly Golightly. While most vocalists seemingly believe that bludgeoning their listeners with overblown displays of "soul" is the way to go, Golightly sings with a cool slink that communicates passion and fire through glorious understatement, and on her best records she's the closest thing to Peggy Lee or Julie London punk rock has ever spawned. Recorded live at a gig on her 2003 American tour (complete with banter between the star and her audience and frequent shouts of encouragement to drummer Bruce Brand), Down Gina's at 3 captures Holly in appropriately low-key form; while guitarist Eric Stein (ex-Greenhornes) can and does rock, for the most part he has the good sense to lay back and conjure a spare, bluesy backdrop for Holly to embroider with her voice, and while one might wish that Holly was a bit higher in the mix on these tapes (which appear to be straight-to-two-track from the audience), hearing her voice play peekaboo with the band suits both the material and the performer just fine. In the tradition of a great jazz singer, here Holly is singing with the band, not over them, and the casual but heartfelt tone of this performance works like a charm. And the choice of material is fine indeed, with Golightly taking "Sally Go Round the Roses" and "This Strange Effect" and making them her own, while her own tunes (such as "Wherever You Are" and "Walk a Mile") are every bit as striking. While Ko and the Knockouts join Holly on-stage for a ragged but right encore, Down Gina's at 3 is truly at its best when Golightly and her combo are winding their way through something slow and quiet; her genius is being able to say so much with so little, and this recording proves that sort of magic is hardly limited to the recording studio.
Track list:
01.Wherever You Were
02.Directly From My Heart
03.Length of Pipe
04.Walk a Mile
05.Slowly But Surely
06.This Wondrous Day
07.Further on Up the Road

Golightly's 1997 album happily kept her own playful vibe going just as it should, combining home and Toerag Studio recordings into another stew of bluesy garage rock and R&B sass. Assisted by her usual crew of backing musicians, like drummer Bruce Brand and guitarist Dan Melchoir (not to mention Baine Watson as "the hick"), Golightly assays originals for the most part, kicking off with the well-groovy "Run Cold." There's one great cover, though: Hattie Hart's old Memphis blues classic "I Let My Daddy Do That," with just Golightly and Melchoir on the track, coming with an appropriately recorded on the porch in 1920 vibe. Most of the album has a distinct midcentury vibe, blending styles and arrangements to sound like a bit of never-never land Americana. The title track is a definite winner, caught somewhere between a slow, rockabilly ballad, cool dismissive '60s pop/psych and Golightly's own particular vibe. Concluding number "Anyway You Like It" is another good listen; both a touch wistful and sharp, its slow pace and harp from George Sueref wrapping things up with a bit of gentle melancholy. Handling production and keeping everything sounding just the way she wants, Golightly comes up with some fun and atmospheric touches, like her self-duet on "Indeed You Do," switching between direct mic singing and from-one-room-over compression. Individual kudos: Brand's swinging drums on the romantic warning sign "A Length of Pipe," Melchoir's own songwriting contribution to the album, Mat Radford's "whistlin'" on the agreeably twangy "One Kiss," and the group instrumental "Snake Eyed," with fine slide guitar from Ed Deegan.
Track list:
01.Run Cold
02.Indeed You Do
03.I Let My Daddy Do That
04.For All This
05.Painted On
06.A Length Of Pipe
07.One More Fact

Josh Rouse & Kurt Wagner - Chester EP

Release Date: Sep 14, 1999
The follow-up to Josh Rouse's acclaimed debut is even more promising than its predecessor: for the five-song Chester, Rouse sought out lyrics from the great Kurt Wagner, the mastermind behind Nashville freakshow Lambchop, and the result is a gorgeously understated record that plays beautifully to the strengths of both artists. Despite the seeming schism between the two, Rouse's bright, chiming songs fit Wagner's darkly surreal vignettes like a glove, at times (as on the superb opener, "Something You Could Always Tell") even co-opting Lambchop's orchestral touches to stunning effect; here's hoping a full-length collaboration is in their future.
Track list:
1.Somehow You Could Always Tell 2:54
2.That's What I Know 3:31
3.Table Dance 6:10
4.65 3:28
5.I Couldn't Wait 4:05

Dusty Springfield - Dusty The Complete BBC Sessions

Release Date: Jun 4, 2007
Recording Date: Jul 26, 1962-May 1, 1970
This 22-track CD isn't exactly the "complete" group of sessions Dusty Springfield recorded for the BBC. It's just all of the ones that have survived in good sound quality; there were some others, sadly, that the radio network didn't preserve (including her first solo session in November 1963, and performances of some songs she never put on her official record releases). Fortunately, the 22 that do remain (including three she recorded in July 1962 in a pop-folk style as part of the Springfields) make for a good and lengthy disc. True, it's a little short on the prime bonuses that 1960s BBC rock comps usually offer, namely songs that were never included on standard releases. But there are a half dozen of those, all of them quality covers that suit her style, including Bobby Lewis' "Tossin' and Turnin'," Stevie Wonder's "Uptight (Everything's Alright)," Dee Dee Warwick's "We're Doing Fine," the Rascals' "Good Lovin'," Jackie Wilson's "Higher and Higher (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me)," and the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody." The other tracks include BBC renditions of some of her hits ("Wishin' and Hopin'," "Little by Little," "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me," "Son of a Preacher Man," "I Just Don't Know What to with Myself," "Little by Little"), though there are just as many lesser-known tunes from her '60s releases (including two notably different versions, oddly enough, of Betty Everett's "I Can't Hear You [No More]"). In common with many BBC releases, the arrangements and performances of the songs she also cut for records aren't too different from the studio versions; in fact, since Springfield habitually employed pretty elaborate orchestral production, they're noticeably thinner. But they're still good, and detectably different from their more familiar official counterparts. That's what you want from a BBC collection, and in some ways it's actually a more consistent listen than most of Springfield's non-best-of albums, since almost every song is a soulful pop number that suits her strengths.
Track list:
01) Swahili Papa [Russ Conway Show 26.07.62]
02) Dear John [Russ Conway Show 26.07.62]
03) Say I Won't BeThere [Ken Dodd Show 14.07.63]

Nina Nastasia and Jim White - You Follow Me

Release Date: May 28, 2007
What do you get when you add Dirty Three/Tren Brothers drummer Jim White to a Nina Nastasia record? It all depends on what you are expecting to hear, of course. White was part of the spiny little band that accompanied Nastasia on her initial Fat Cat offering On Leaving in 2006. While that record was skeletal, this one is positively minimal, yet in some ways it is also bigger. With only White's syncopated, iconoclastic beatmaking as a foil, Nastasia is challenged to get her songs across with her guitar playing carrying more of the weight. White is not an accompanist here, he is a collaborator, even though he didn't write the songs. In just 31 minutes the pair look into the strange shapes and images that are at the root of her mostly hummable songs and stretch them to the breaking point. Steve Albini recorded the set at his Electrical Audio studio in Chicago, and his trademark is on White's drum sound, full of bassy tom toms and wispy brushwork, even as his bass drum and his rim shots color the end of each line Nastasia sings, and creates breaks in the heart of lyrics to underscore a line or two, offering a portal to the meaning of her sometimes elliptical lyrics, or providing a tunnel into the emotion in a song. Topically, You Follow Me has reflections on family, broken commitments, memory -- bitter and bittersweet -- and death. These are bright and shiny subjects to be sure, but Nastasia's voice emits tenderness no matter what she is singing, creating a sense of equanimity in all of it. Her notions of regret, reverence, anger and fear are all offered matter of factly, yet there is no doubt of her devotion to the truth a song dictates. White gets that vocal instrument, and he does his best to point toward it in every song.
Track list:
1 I've Been out Walking 3:18
2 I Write Down Lists 3:15
3 Odd Said the Doe 3:12
4 The Day I Would Bury You 2:55

Roy Orbison - 3 albums [Sings / Memphis / Milestones]

Roy Orbison - Sings [1972]
Roy Orbison was in his sixth year with MGM Records at the time he cut the songs for Sings -- he'd seen his fortunes wax and wane, mostly the latter, during that time, principally because, in his view, the label had never given his records the promotion they deserved; by contrast, London Records, which released the same recordings in Europe and the rest of the world, did promote them there, and he'd had major hits in Europe and Australia during this same extended dry spell in America. He still threw everything he had into his recordings, however, as can be heard here -- despite four different production credits spread among its 11 songs (including Orbison and his occasional writing partner and backup singer Joe Melson), it's an amazingly consistent album and features Orbison as the co-author on five of the songs. Mainly, it features his voice at its strongest and most confident, whether on romantic ballads such as "God Love You" or "Rings of Gold," or on slightly more country-flavored numbers like "Plain Jane Country (Come to Town)." He achieves new heights of drama and soaring vocal purity on "Harlem Woman," and jumps to a bouncy, acoustic guitar-driven country-pop number on "Cheyenne." "Changes," an original number by Orbison and Melson, sounds like a lost single, and its melody seems to owe a debt to either Anton Karas' "Third Man Theme" or Kurt Weill's "Mack the Knife."
Track list:
1. "God Love You" (Roy Orbison & Joe Melson)
2. "Beaujolais" (John Carter & Tim Gilbert)
3. "If Only For Awhile" (Bill Dees & Larry Henley)
4. "Rings Of Gold" (Gene Thomas)
5. "Help Me" (Roy Orbison & Joe Melson)
6. "Plain Jane Country" (Eddy Raven)
7. "Harlem Woman" (Roy Orbison & Joe Melson)
8. "Cheyenne" (John Carter & Tim Gilbert)
9. "Changes" (Roy Orbison & Joe Melson)
10. "It Takes All Kinds Of People" (Roy Orbison & Mike Curb)
11. "Remember The Good" (Mickey Newbury)
LINK
Roy Orbison - Memphis [1973]
It's difficult to say exactly what Roy Orbison was doing with the Memphis album, although one wishes he'd done another album's worth of material like it. On one level, it shows his rock & roll batteries recharged with the opening number, "Memphis, Tennessee." But then it moves on to more familiar sentimental country-pop territory of the kind that Glen Campbell had been charting with and filling his albums with for a few years -- and after that comes a hot, beat-driven, chorus-laden, big-sounding number. Further down the line is a carefully understated interpretation of Don Gibson's "I Can't Stop Loving You" that shows how less can be more with a voice like Orbison's, and then there's the pop/rock country "Run the Engines Up High," which incorporates some heavy, rock-style fuzz guitar, and a version of "I Fought the Law," complete with phased drums, that is as good as any you'll ever hear this side of Bobby Fuller's single. Perhaps this was intended to be Orbison's answer to the pair of albums that Elvis Presley had generated out of Chips Moman's American Studios in Memphis in 1969-1970, except that Orbison didn't need the "comeback" -- he hadn't squandered time and years on bad movies (except one) and bad soundtrack songs; he just needed to sell some records, which this didn't really do. So what we have here is Orbison veering very successfully between rock & roll, country, and pop, with excellent production by the singer and Joe Melson.
Track list:
1. "Memphis, Tennessee" (Chuck Berry)
2. "Why A Woman Cries" (Jerry McBee)
3. "Run, Baby, Run (Back Into My Arms)" (Joe Melson & Don Gant)
4. "Take Care Of Your Woman" (Jerry McBee)
5. "I'm The Man On Susie's Mind" (Joe Melson & Glenn Barber)
6. "I Can't Stop Loving You" (Don Gibson)
7. "Run The Engines Up High" (Jerry McBee)
8. "It Ain't No Big Thing (But It's Growing)" (Neal Merritt, Alice Joy Merritt, Shorty Hall)
9. "I Fought The Law" (Sonny Curtis)
10. "The Three Bells" (Bert Reisfeld) & (Jean Villard)
11. "Danny Boy" (Frederick Weatherly)
LINK
Roy Orbison - Milestones [1974]
Milestones was hardly that, at least artistically. Indeed, that it comes off as well as it does is amazing, considering that Orbison was merely trying to fulfill the basic terms of his original MGM Records contract and leave the label -- thus, he didn't want to commit any really good material he might've been working on that could go more profitably elsewhere, but he also had to record a proper, releasable album. Even under those circumstances, he couldn't resist putting his best effort into the vocals on some of the material that was here, which included a lot of excellent covers, among them "Sweet Caroline," "I've Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now)," "Drift Away," and the Bee Gees' "Words." John D. Loudermilk's "I Wanna Live" was the single, issued in August of 1973 and also opening the album, which disappeared without a trace, but did its job. Orbison had fulfilled the terms of his contract and was able to prove that none of his albums had received the promotional efforts promised (mostly because the MGM Records presidency had become a revolving door job for the duration of his time there), thus precluding the label from holding onto him. He would return to Monument Records in coming years, and then move on to record for Elektra and Virgin.
Track list:
1. "I Wanna Live" (John D. Loudermilk)
2. "You Don't Know Me" (Cindy Walker & Eddy Arnold)
3. "California Sunshine Girl" (Letha Purdom)
4. "Words" (Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb)
5. "Blue Rain (Coming Down)" (Roy Orbison & Joe Melson)
6. "Drift Away" (Mentory Williams)
7. "You Lay So Easy On My Mind" (Donald L. Riis, Bobby G. Rice, Charles W. Fields)
8. "The World You Live In" (Joe Melson & Suzie Melson)
9. "Sweet Caroline" (Neil Diamond)
10. "I've Been Loving You Too Long" (Otis Redding & Jerry Butler)
11. "The Morning After" (Al Kasha & Joel Hirschhorn)

Motörhead - Ace of Spades [Bonus Tracks]

With the 1980 release of Ace of Spaces, Motörhead had their anthem of anthems -- that is, the title track -- the one trademark song that would summarize everything that made this early incarnation of the band so legendary, a song that would be blasted by legions of metalheads for generations on end. It's a legendary song, for sure, all two minutes and 49 bracing seconds of it. And the album of the same name is legendary as well, among Motörhead's all-time best, often considered their single best, in fact, along with Overkill. Ace of Spades was Motörhead's third great album in a row, following the 1979 releases of Overkill and Bomber, respectively. Those two albums have a lot in common with Ace of Spaces. The classic lineup -- Lemmy (bass and vocals), "Fast" Eddie Clarke (guitar), and "Philthy Animal" Taylor (drums) -- is still in place and sounding as alive and crazed as ever. The album is still rock-solid, boasting several superlative standouts. Actually, besides the especially high number of standouts on Ace of Spades -- at least relative to Bomber, which wasn't quite as strong overall as Overkill had been -- the only key difference between this 1980 album and its two 1979 predecessors is the producer, in this case Vic Maile. The result of his work isn't all that different from that of Jimmy Miller, the longtime Rolling Stones producer who had worked on Overkill and Bomber, but it's enough to give Ace of Spaces a feeling distinct from its two very similar-sounding predecessors. This singular sound (still loud and in your face, rest assured), along with the exceptionally strong songwriting and the legendary stature of the title track, makes Ace of Spades the ideal Motörhead album if one were to choose one and only one studio album. It's highly debatable whether Ace of Spaces is tops over the breakthrough Overkill, as the latter is more landmark because of its earlier release, and is somewhat rougher around the edges, too. Either way, Ace of Spades rightly deserves its legacy as a classic. There's no debating that. [The various single-disc reissues of Ace of Spades append a B-side ("Dirty Love") and two songs from the St. Valentines Day Massacre EP ("Please Don't Touch" and "Emergency").]
Track list:
1 Ace of Spades 2:47
2 Love Me Like a Reptile 3:24

Isaac Hayes - Instrumentals

Instrumentals is just what it says: instrumental tracks by Hayes, from the first half of the 1970s. As could be expected, most of the songs are from soundtracks that Hayes did during the period. While this funk is more atmospheric than innovative, it's mood music par excellence on those occasions when you want to simulate the vibe of cruising dimly lit bars in search of a good time. Hayes let some of his jazzier inclinations come to the fore on some of the compositions (like "Cafe Regio's," the B-side to "Shaft"), and his band was tight but smooth. There is a previously unreleased instrumental version of "Type Thang" (which appears on Shaft in a vocal take), as well as an instrumental arrangement of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face".

Saint Etienne - 2003 - Finistere

Regardless of where you stand with this group as a fan (whether you detest Good Humor and Sound of Water or not), it's a bit of both. Those who've been waiting nearly a decade for the group to return to the messy but masterful patchwork anti-formula formula of the first three albums should be happy with this one. Like So Tough and Foxbase Alpha, the flow of the album is charmingly disjointed and seemingly made up of tangents albeit the kind of tangents for which most pop groups would happily exchange their Sarah discographies in order to call just one their own. In that sense, Finisterre is a return, forsaking the unified approaches taken on both Good Humor and Sound of Water. But the album resembles what many longtime fans would call a blatant return a return in lieu of new ideas (to borrow). The group's bright and shimmery dance-pop instincts are practically oozing out of one-third of these songs, though none of them quite scale the heights of the group's best material. If another third of the album didn't sound like it could've only been made in the wake of the electro (not electro) revival, it could've been released at any point during the latter half of the '90s. The remainder of the album, along with some of the electro-leaning material, mines melancholy and occasionally dark territories. In fact, there are no sweeping string arrangements, no delicately strummed acoustic guitars, and nary a whistle-worthy melody within the album's last four songs. Still, Saint Etienne remain England's best pop group they only look bad when they're compared to themselves, and this album, for all its shortcomings, has a handful of moments capable of making you think that they are the best pop group to have ever existed
Track list:
01.Action
02.Amateur
03.Language Lab
04.Soft Like Me
05.Summer Isle
06.Stop and Think It Over
07.Shower Scene
08.The Way We Live Now

Saint Etienne - 2000 - Sound of Water

Ten years on, Saint Etienne found themselves at a bit of a crossroads. They had long ago stopped having hits in the U.K., settling into a cult audience in both their homeland and the U.S. There isn't an inherent problem with having a cult audience, but cult bands often have the stigma of being on the cutting edge. At the start of their career, Saint Etienne was on the cutting edge. Their first two albums were at the foundation of many '90s pop trends, including the revival of swinging '60s London, the unabashedly melodic bent of Brit-pop, the fascination for forgotten easy-listening artifacts from the '60s, the kaleidoscopic blend of '60s sound and '90s sensibility later heard on Beck records, plus the insurgent twee-pop of the late '90s. For their tenth anniversary, they decided to reclaim the cutting edge with Sound of Water. The album strove to keep the concise, song-oriented focus of Good Humour, while expanding the horizons of their music to focus on abstract, dreamy, electronic sounds. There are moments of pop pleasure here, surrounded by spare, languid electronica sections, vaguely reminiscent of the High Llamas. This is where maturity pays off. Saint Etienne never lingers too long in one area, letting the album flow gracefully between these two extremes and placing some very good pop melodies along the way. There are no knockout singles on par with those from So Tough or Tiger Bay, but Saint Etienne has pretty much given up on the pop charts, preferring to concentrate on cohesive, stronger albums. That may mean that Sound of Water simply isn't as exciting as their earlier work, and it also means that there isn't a good gateway song to the record. But that's OK, since with repeated plays, Sound of Water reveals itself as a first-rate effort
Track list:
01.Late Morning
02.Heart Failed (in the back of taxi)
03.Sycamore
04.Don't Back Down
05.Just a Little Overcome
06.Boy Is Crying
07.Aspects of Lambert
08.Downey, Ca

10.The Place at Dawn

Saint Etienne - 1998 - Good Humor

Good Humor has Saint Etienne back cooking up more delectable lolli-pop. From "Woodcabin," the dubby, bass-heavy opener, Good Humor is a typically arch Saint Etienne album full of easy-listening dream pop. Tracks like the shimmering "Lose That Girl" and the swirling "Erica America" show Saint Etienne at its melancholic best. There are, predictably, some near misses such as the Beatlesque "Mr. Donut," which is as sweet as a strawberry field but fails to deliver the melodic promises made by the smart atmospherics. "Goodnight Jack," with its pastel-shaded flute loops and subtle breakbeats, has a positively cooler-than-cool feel and a wrenching change of pace toward the middle of the song. Sure, Good Humor is clever, perhaps overly so, and yeah, it's full of the Et's contrived coyness and we-know-more-than-you attitude, but it's good stuff. Sometimes you just want to put on a disc, sit back, and let it carry you off to someplace else. If that's all you're looking for, Good Humor is sweet ear candy
Track list:
01.Woodcabin
02.Sylvie
03.Split Screen
04.Mr Donut
05.Goodnight Jack
06.Lose That Girl
07.The Bad Photographer
08.Been So Long

Saint Etienne - 1995 - Too Young to Die_Singles 1990 - 1995

Although their albums were considerably more consistent than most dance-pop acts, Saint Etienne's high points were always their singles. Released prior to a quiet, lengthy hiatus, Too Young to Die collects all of their singles, from their debut disco cover of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" to their last, "He's on the Phone," providing a thoroughly entertaining chronicle of the group's career. Much of the music sounds somewhat dated which is always a problem with dance music but Saint Etienne was essentially a very good Euro-pop band, reveling in kitsch and style in equal measure. At their best "Only Love Can Break Your Heart," "You're in a Bad Way," "Join Our Club," "Who Do You Think You Are," among others they found the heart in nightclubbing. The quality of the music dips slightly in the latter half of the album, but there is prime pop throughout the disc.
Track list:
01.Only Love Can Break Your Heart
02.Kiss And Make Up
03.Nothing Can Stop Us
04.Join Our Club
05.People Get Real
06.Avenue
07.You're In Bed Way
08.Who Do You Think You Are
09.Hobart Paving
10.I Was Born On Christmas Day
11.Pale Movie
12.Like A Motorway
13.Hug My Soul
14.He's On The Phone

Saint Etienne - 1994 - Tigar Bay

After three years (and two albums) of stunning development, Saint Etienne's disco-llision of '60s pop, '70s dance, and '90s club reached the peak by which they still are judged, with an album that is alternately heartwarming, heartbreaking, electrifying, and impossibly captivating. From the dramatic opener "Urban Clearway," to the mysteriously Kraftwerk-ian "Like A Motorway," and on through "Pale Movie" (that could make Valentino weep), Tiger Bay [UK] is everything that two generations of post-Beatles wannabes have labored to create, but have always been too in awe to complete: a melding of mood with momentum, emotion with eccentricity, and an endless succession of divine verses sliding into sad and sexy hooks. Tapping veins of nostalgic romance that bring a tear to the eye before you even know what the lyric is (once you do know, you're a goner, no questions asked), the tracks then explode out of rhythms that could make a dead dog dance. Tiger Bay is alternately seductive, silly, and sassy. But it was also constructed with such an eye for sensuous detail that any attempt whatsoever to toy with the track listing can only shatter the crystal. A UK reissue in 1996 added three extra tracks and none of them really fit, while the 1994 US edition did the record an even greater disservice; its own additions forced the removal of two of the album's finest moments: the luxurious drift of "'Western Wind,'" and "'Tankerville'" one an exquisitely haunted Sarah Cracknell vocal, the other a sweeping instrumental with a melancholic edge as dark as the edge of town. To hear "Boy Scouts Of America" finally break through at the end of that is to witness sunrise at the end of the bleakest night. Ignore the repackages and avoid the American version. If you really want to visit Tiger Bay (and you do, you know), there's only one route to take
Track list:
01.Urban Clearway
02.Hug My Soul
03.Former Lover - Hug My Soul
04.Like A Motorway
05.On The Shore
06.Marble Lions
07.Pale Movie
08.Cool Kids Of Death
09.I Was Born On Christmas Day
10.Boy Scouts Of America
11.Hug My Soul
12.Like A Motorway (Alternate Version)

Saint Etienne - 1993 - So Tough

St. Etienne's second album, So Tough, is a remarkable step forward from Fox Base Alpha, boasting a stronger set of songs and a sharper focus. Not only are the pop melodies catchier than before, the group's mastery of swinging '60s arrangements and Eurodisco rhythms is positively infectious, and Sarah Cracknell's light, airy vocals are alluringly dreamy, giving the record a wonderful, floating quality. The cool club beats, occasional samples, and synthesized textures provide an inviting sonic backdrop for Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs' infectious pop songs, and while the singles "You're in a Bad Way" and "Hobart Paving" stand out, there are several other tracks here that are nearly as good, making So Tough an irresistible set of danceable, well-constructed pop
Track list:
01.Mario's Cafe
02.Railway Jam
03.Data With Spelman
04.Calico
05.Avenue
06.You're In A Bad Way
07.Memo To Pricey
08.Hobart Paving
09.Leafhound

11.Conchita Martinez

Saint Etienne - 1991 - Fox Base Alpha
Despite a handful of classic pop singles, Saint Etienne's debut album Fox Base Alpha is a tentative fusion of club culture and swinging '60s pop. Lead vocalist Sarah Cracknell hasn't been fully integrated into the band's lineup she doesn't even sing on their astonishing Eurodisco cover of Neil Young's "Only Love Will Break Your Heart," which is not only cleverly ironic, but also works yet the filler remains thoroughly enjoyable, even if it rarely reaches the heights of the irresistible girl-group pop of "Kiss and Make Up."
Track list:
01.This Is Radio Etienne
02.Only Love Can Break Your Heart
03.Wilson
04.Carnt Sleep
05.Girl Vii
06.Spring
07.She's The One
08.Stoned To Say The Least

Ray Charles - The Complete Country & Western Recordings 1959-1986 [4CD Box-Set]

Release Date: Oct 27, 1998
Ray Charles' explorations into country music were no mere dalliance. They have their genesis in "I'm Movin' On," the last record he made for Atlantic before moving on to ABC Paramount in 1960. But it was with the enormously successful Modern Sounds in Country & Western series of albums in 1962 (and the career making single "I Can't Stop Lovin' You") that made their mark, crossing over genre boundaries that were unthinkable at the time. An African-American doing hillbilly music was not a first, nor were uptown arrangements of hillbilly songs, but here was the Genius of Soul validating the music of the white working class, plain and simple. He was putting his own spin to it (hence the Modern Sounds), not merely a black voice singing Gene Autry songs, investing them with pain, emotion, and sorrow. It was an unprecedented achievement, both commercially and artistically, and now decades later it's viewed as just another genre-bender in the grand Ray Charles tradition. But this 92-track, four-CD box set is the first to gather them all in one place and view it as a consistent piece of work spread over a career as a stylist that's second to none. The first disc combines both volumes of the Modern Sounds albums; the rest of the anthology moves through singles, various returns to the concept over the years, and stray tracks from his later stretch at Columbia to spice it all up. This multi-disc set contains some very special music, nicely packaged a moment in American music well worth investigating.

Track list:
CD 1

Otis Redding - Otis! The Definitive Otis Redding [4CD BOX-SET]

Release Date: Nov 9, 1993
Anyone who wants to understand the different phases of Otis Redding's career, and the reason for his having made a major impact across the 1960s and beyond, can have no better place to start than Otis! The Definitive Otis Redding. There are 73 studio cuts here and the producers have reached back beyond the Atlantic and Stax vaults: They've included numbers like "She's All Right," cut by the Shooters featuring Otis Redding in the summer of 1960 for the Transworld label; "Gettin' Hip," which was done for the Alshire label in 1960; and "Shout Bamalama" by Otis Redding & the Pinetoppers, recorded for Confederate, all prior to Redding's signing with Stax. The selection of studio cuts suggests that the makers thought long and hard about each and every track on this disc -- the first three CDs are a mix of single A- and B-sides, coupled with important album tracks, all culminating with "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay." Little or nothing that's essential is missing along the way (though one could argue very persuasively that anything on the albums that Redding released in his lifetime was essential in some respect). The fourth disc is the real killer, however; 23 live songs drawn from the complete range of his concert tapes in the Atlantic (and Stax) vaults, from the Apollo Theater in New York in November of 1963 to his final tour of Europe and the Monterey International Pop Festival in the spring of 1967, including individual tracks that were unheard until the 1980s. An extensive booklet is also included.
