Scraps

Scraps (1972) more music like this

by NRBQ

For the uninitiated, NRBQ is an oddity. How does one, for instance, approach a band who sings a song like "Howard Johnson's Got His Ho-Jo Working?" The answer may be, "not very seriously," but then another problem reveals itself: the songs are so catchy. "Who Put the Garlic in the Glue?" and "Magnet" bounce along like an early-'70s version of Ben ...

Stay Awake: Interpretations of Vintage Disney Films

Stay Awake: Interpretations of Vintage Disney Films (1989) more music like this

by Various Artists

Whether you regard him as one of the greatest storytellers in American history or a cold-hearted marketing genius who forced a set of prepackaged consumerist myths on several generations of unsuspecting youth, there's little argument that the films of Walt Disney have become an indelible part of our collective subconsciousness. Then again, for ...

Kick Me Hard

Kick Me Hard (1979) more music like this

by NRBQ

NRBQ's short-lived alliance with Mercury Records resulted in one of the tightest and most consistently rockin' albums of their career, NRBQ at Yankee Stadium, but a year later they found themselves back on their own Red Rooster label, where the band relaxed and let their characteristic wit come to the forefront on 1979's Kick Me Hard. Opening with ...

Grooves in Orbit (1983) more music like this

by NRBQ

After NRBQ's At Yankee Stadium failed to become a hit, Mercury Records dropped them, and it would be five years before the band would have another chance to record for a major label. While At Yankee Stadium was by their standards a tight and consistent set that gracefully balanced commercial appeal with their taste for the offbeat, NRBQ seemed ...

Tiddlywinks

Tiddlywinks (1980) more music like this

by NRBQ

After being unceremoniously dumped by Mercury after Yankee Stadium, NRBQ returned to the warm embrace of Rounder and recorded a string of fine records that started with Kick Me Hard. This lineup was to remain intact for nearly 20 years, but here, fairly early on, the synchronicity among the quartet was apparent; it was if they'd been playing ...

Wild Weekend

Wild Weekend (1989) more music like this

by NRBQ

After a dozen or so years on Rounder Records, NRBQ signed on with Virgin for the Andy Paley co-produced Wild Weekend (1989). The quartet retains its eclectic range of pop and rock mayhem, adapting several well-worn concert favorites for this studio platter. Nowhere is that more evident than the opening title track, which Terry Adams, Joey ...

Born to Choose

Born to Choose (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

A benefit album for abortion rights, Born to Choose features an almost standard cast of alternative musicians (including R.E.M., Natalie Merchant, Matthew Sweet, Bob Mould, and Soundgarden) supporting the most overtly political of all recent tribute collections. Born to Choose would be meaningless if the music was weak. Even though it is the ...

Dummy

Dummy (2004) more music like this

by NRBQ

Thirty-five years after their 1969 self-titled debut, NRBQ's Dummy delivers 13 highly accessible titles with enough quirky delight to rival Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe and other purveyors of the mid-'70s new wave sound. Oh the rhythm & blues is still there, as sure as that's part of the group's name, but on this mostly new album (which includes ...

Tapdancin' Bats (1983) more music like this

by NRBQ

This is without question one of the 'Q's [read: NRBQ's] best compilations -- displaying many facets of the band's instrumental agility and uncanny sonic reinventions. Chronologically, Tapdancin' Bats represents the quartet during the mid- to late '70s. However, a number of the tunes -- most notably "Ain't It Alright" and "Trouble at the Henhouse" ...

Message for the Mess Age (1994) more music like this

by NRBQ

This title became the final studio effort from NRBQ to include Al Anderson (guitar/vocals), marking the conclusion of their 23-year association. The split was ultimately amicable, with Anderson effectively retiring from both the band as well as touring, preferring to mine his considerable songwriting talents in Nashville, TN. Message for the Mess ...

Christmas Wish (1997) more music like this

by NRBQ

NRBQ bring a sense of goofy fun to this eight-song mini-album, covering standards in their wacky style and contributing a few originals -- Terry Adams's "Electric Train," and Joey Spampinato's "Christmas Wish." The cover photo of NRBQ decked out in their winter pajamas is a real hoot. Dennis MacDonald, All Music Guide

Diggin' Uncle Q (Live) (1988) more music like this

by NRBQ

1988's Diggin' Uncle Q is NRBQ's second consecutive live release, recorded largely in Providence, Rhode Island. Given their über-bar band aesthetic, the live setting typically represents the Q at their best; it's where their rock and R&B roots really shine through. This set -- which includes the fan-favorites "Rocket in My Pocket" and "It Comes ...

Stay with We: The Best of NRBQ (1993) more music like this

by NRBQ

The first incarnation of the New Rhythm & Blues Quintet recorded a pair of highly original and underrated albums during their all too brief stint with Columbia Records in 1968-1969. These include a self-titled release as well as Boppin' the Blues, which was a collaborative effort with rockabilly legend Carl Perkins. Highlights from those ...

Christmas Party with Eddie G. (1990) more music like this

by Various Artists

If there is a more entertaining Christmas compilation than this CD, I have not heard it. This is a party platter that includes international Christmas greetings and amusing comedy bits from old radio in between 17 tracks of R&B, blues, country, exotica, rock, novelty, and more. Most tracks are unavailable elsewhere on CD. From the surf sounds of ...

You're Nice People You Are (1997) more music like this

by NRBQ

NRBQ's 12th album for the Rounder imprint finds the band employing their usual eclectic approach on a dozen quirky originals and coming up with their first album for children. The kickoff title track -- a goofy sing along with more than a smattering of slightly dissonant Dixieland horns in the background -- is also reprised in the next to last ...

Ludlow Garage 1970 (2006) more music like this

by NRBQ

Right out of the box NRBQ were a different kind of band. Their self-titled 1969 debut album opened with back-to-back covers of Eddie Cochran's rockabilly classic "C'mon Everybody" and Sun Ra's exploratory jazz adventure "Rocket #9," and things only got weirder from there. Very few people got it at first, but from the start "the Q," as they're ...

Christmas Wish [Deluxe Edition] (2007) more music like this

by NRBQ

In 1980, NRBQ entered the lucrative seasonal music market with the EP Christmas Wish, in which the ever-eccentric combo offered up eight holiday-themed tunes ranging from the respectful and charming (the lovely title tune, which appeared twice) to the wildly off-kilter ("Here Comes Santa Claus" played on a very curious sounding electronic keyboard ...

She Sings, They Play (1985) more music like this

by Skeeter Davis & NRBQ

NRBQ is one of, if not arguably the only rock band that would be able to pull off a disc of original country-flavored pop songs and obscure covers. They do exactly that with legendary C&W vocalist Skeeter Davis on the appropriately titled She Sings, They Play. While the concept of the 'Q going country might initially seem incongruous, they had ...

Workshop (1973) more music like this

by NRBQ

This disc would become a true touchstone LP for the band. Originally titled Age of Aquariums, Workshop became the first album to feature what is considered by many to be the "classic quartet" version of NRBQ. This incarnation incorporated the talents of Terry Adams (keyboard/coronet/trumpet), Joey Spampinato (bass/guitar/sax/vocals), Al Anderson ...

The definitive NRBQ lineup -- Terry Adams on keys, Al Anderson on guitar, Joey Spampinato on bass and Tom Ardolino on drums -- made their studio debut on 1977's All Hopped Up, but it was At Yankee Stadium, released the following year, where this edition of the band really hit its stride.

Uncommon Denominators (1986) more music like this

by NRBQ

Uncommon Denominators not only contains a sampling of material from half a dozen of NRBQ's LPs for Rounder/Red Rooster, but there is also the Q's previously unavailable sonic desecration of the Jule Styne pop standard "People" -- which can rightly be considered as the anti-Streisand version. The New Rhythm and Blues Quartet (NRBQ) are known as ...
