Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams

Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

The shear breadth and diversity of artists gathered for this benefit project, Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams, is a tribute to the affection Victoria Williams' peers had for her. It conveniently also makes for heady listening for any fan of contemporary music. The hard, brittle edges of Soul Asylum ("Summer of Drugs") and Buffalo Tom ...

Deep Natural

Deep Natural (2002) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Michelle Shocked's natural eclecticism, long since unfettered by the commercial considerations of a record label other than her own Mighty Sound imprint, means that, on the infrequent occasions when she issues a new recording, one approaches it with no idea what it will sound like, except, of course, that it won't sound anything like her last one. ...

Arkansas Traveler [Bonus Tracks] (2004) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

One may feel a certain pity for Mercury Records when it took delivery of Michelle Shocked's third album for the label, Arkansas Traveler. Mercury had signed the feisty country-folk singer/songwriter in the wake of the hoopla surrounding her first album, The Texas Campfire Tapes, an impromptu collection recorded on a cassette player at the 1986 ...

Threesome

Threesome (2005) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Say what you will about her, but Michelle Shocked is one musician who is obviously in it for art and not commerce, and while most folks would consider it commercial suicide to release three albums of new material on the same day and date, Shocked not only opted to do just that through her own Mighty Sound label, but even upped the ante by also ...

Short Sharp Shocked

Short Sharp Shocked (1988) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Michelle Shocked is asked in the song "Anchorage," "What's it like to be a skateboard punk rocker?" Perhaps it takes a flashback like Short Sharp Shocked to fully answer the more interesting question, "How did you get there?" The album finds Shocked taking a semi-fond trip back to an East Texas childhood, and all of the defined roles, limited ...

Got No Strings

Got No Strings (2005) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Despite her many musical mood swings over the years, here's something no one was expecting -- Michelle Shocked recording a family-friendly set of songs from classic Walt Disney movies with a semi-acoustic bluegrass swing band backing her up. And dipping even deeper into the well of surprises, Got No Strings turns out to be lots of fun -- the sassy ...

Texas Campfire Takes [Expanded]

Texas Campfire Takes [Expanded] (2003) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

When producer Pete Lawrence recorded Michelle Shocked on his Sony walkman in 1986, the two unknowingly created a field recording that would break Shocked into the spotlight and eventually get her signed to Mercury Records, where she would jump-start her musical career. As interesting as The Texas Campfire Tapes were for a debut release (albeit ...

Captain Swing [Expanded] (2004) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Corporate hellcat and musical wunderkind Michelle Shocked followed up her pivotal Short Sharp Shocked (1988) with Captain Swing (1989) -- the second entry in what she planned as a trilogy. The two albums are most definitely a study in contrasts. As the project's title suggests, she takes her message-laden selections into a Western swing and big ...

Lounge-A-Palooza

Lounge-A-Palooza (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

Lounge-A-Palooza combines several of the most irritating trends in '90s alternative rock in one convenient package. There's the kitschy cocktail revival, the smug humor of smirk-rock, and the pounding guitars of grunge. It's a collection that combines alt-rock covers by MOR pop bands -- like Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme singing Soundgarden's ...

The Best of Mountain Stage Live, Vol. 2

The Best of Mountain Stage Live, Vol. 2 (1991) more music like this

by Various Artists

It seems the "unplugged" trend of the '90s was only a surprise to either fans of Bon Jovi or those who hadn't been paying attention for 35 years, for acoustic music had been a hallmark of rock and its cousins for quite some time by that point. This second volume in the Best of Mountain Stage Live series focuses on both country and alternative ...

The Texas Campfire Tapes (1986) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

This disc contains recordings of Michelle Shocked during a serendipitous meeting between English music enthusiast and wannabe record label exec Pete Lawrence and Shocked. The story goes that they were both attending the 1986 Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas when, during a walk around the campgrounds, Lawrence heard Shocked playing and asked if she ...

To Heaven U Ride (2007) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Two years after she simultaneously released three separate recordings on her own Mighty Sound imprint, Michelle Shocked is back with a live album. Don't plan on hearing live versions of Shocked's classics from Short Sharp Shocked, Arkansas Traveler, or Captain Swing. In fact, don't plan on hearing much of her old material at all (four tunes).

Don't Ask, Don't Tell

Don't Ask, Don't Tell (2005) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Described by its creator as "Short Sharp Shocked all grown up," Don't Ask, Don't Tell doesn't bear all that close a surface resemblance to Michelle Shocked's first studio album beyond the fact that it's easily her most straightforward and accessible piece of roots-influenced pop/rock since she went into the studio with Pete Anderson back in 1988. ...

Mercury Poise: 1988-1995 (1996) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

With a title that plays on Graham Parker's corporate-venomous song and EP Mercury Poisoning, the disc skims a dozen layers of feminist-folk-punk cream from three eclectic albums (folk-rock, swing-jazz, and Southern roots music) recorded for the label between 1988 and 1991, plus tracks previously only available on soundtracks, compilations, and ...

Kind Hearted Woman (1994) more music like this

by Michelle Shocked

Each successive Michelle Shocked album marks a departure from its predecessor, and her fifth album, Kind Hearted Woman, was true to that in more ways than one. Shocked endured an acrimonious split from Mercury Records following her controversial 1992 album Arkansas Traveler and began selling an early self-released version of Kind Hearted Woman at ...

by Various Artists

Rhino's Lifetime Music series continues with Intimate Portrait: Women in Rock, a collection of 16 songs performed by females artists and mainly recorded in the '80s or '90s. The collection illustrates the fallacy of grouping all female artists under the heading "women in rock, " since there are too many different styles, from soft rock to hard ...

A nicely diverse 14-track compilation that includes tracks from John Mayall (the 1971 "Mr. Censor Man"), the Soup Dragons, Michelle Shocked, Phranc, Tears for Fears and the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, among others. There are some expected things and some nice surprises, and it works as a compilation in itself, which is nice. Rock the Vote is ...
