Robert Plant/Alison Krauss
What seems to be an unlikely pairing in the duo of former -- and future apparently -- Led Zeppelin vocalist Robert Plant and bluegrass superstar Alison Krauss is actually one of the most effortless-sounding pairings in modern popular music. The bridge seems to be producer T-Bone Burnett and the band assembled for this outing: drummer Jay Bellerose ...

Live at Leeds [Bonus Tracks]

by
The Who
Rushed out in 1970 as a way to bide time as the Who toiled away on their sequel to Tommy, Live at Leeds wasn't intended to be the definitive Who live album and many collectors maintain that the band had better shows only available on bootlegs. But those shows weren't easily available whereas Live at Leeds was, and even if this show may not have ...

This four-CD collection does include all of the Who's big hits and the lion's share of their key album tracks.

Live at Leeds [Deluxe Edition]

by
The Who
This two-disc set should be the final word regarding the Who's February 14, 1970, performance at Leeds University. The main impetus for consumers -- who may have repurchased this title in its various formats -- is having the entire Tommy rock opera intact. While impressive, that performance merely scratches the surface of the multifaceted sonic ...

Hey, the title doesn't lie.

more music like this
by
The Hollies
This double-CD set isn't a greatest-hits collection -- though it has more than a few of those on it -- nor is it precisely a best-of. The package refers to it as an "alternative" best-of, which sort of makes it roughly analogous to what More Hot Rocks was to the Rolling Stones. It is also the most ambitiously devised and programmed comprehensive ...

by
The Pagans
The first of two CD reissues (the other being The Pink Album Plus) from 2001 that cover the Pagans' existence as thoroughly as can be, Shit Street is almost evenly divided between studio takes from 1977 to 1979 and a slew of live cuts, almost all from an August 1979 show. Concentrating on the earliest and for many best incarnation of the group, ...

The Pirates
Mick Green was still the guitarist in the Pirates on this late-'90s effort, sharing lead vocals with bassist B.J. Anders. It's ho-hum hard rock, sometimes pursuing a ghastly MOR sound, and best when it goes into the more familiar R&B/rock territory Green is known for, such as on the covers of "Fortune Teller" and Billy Fury's "Wondrous Place." The ...

The Rolling Stones
A live document of the Brian Jones-era Rolling Stones sounds enticing, but the actual product is a letdown, owing to a mixture of factors, some beyond the producers' control and other very much their doing. The sound on the original LP Got Live If You Want It! was lousy -- which was par for the course on most mid-'60s live rock albums -- and the ...

French rock & roll is usually heaped with ridicule, deservedly so for the most part. There are exceptions of course like Jacques Dutronc and Plastic Bertrand's "Ça Plane Pour Moi." Add to that list the tough and melodic post-punk/new wave/power pop group the Dogs. Their debut record from 1979, Different, is a little gem of a record full of spiky ...

Peter Young's Soul Cellar, Vol. 2 is the kind of compilation that's quite prevalent in the world of British soul reissues: a theme-less assortment of hits, obscurities, and star and little-known performers, all selected by a DJ who isn't known outside of the U.K. If there are specific criteria for why these particular 30 songs (spanning the late ...

The Rock Sects In was the Downliners Sect's final official studio album, though you'd never guess from the intensity with which they approach covers of "Hang on Sloopy" and "He Was a Square" -- they were becoming less enchanted with the direction in which music was going around them, and losing enthusiasm for recordings, in particular, but that ...

This double CD is a testament to the outer limits of 1960s rock archivism, presenting 51 songs -- unreleased during the 1960s themselves -- by a band who never had a hit record and never became especially popular even on an underground or cult level. Of course, they did have a couple of future members of Deep Purple in the band, which guarantees ...
