The Definitive Collection

The Definitive Collection (2007) more music like this

by Bo Diddley

Universal's 2007 set The Definitive Collection is a retitled reissue of the previously released 1997 comp His Best. No matter the title, this is an excellent 20-track roundup of Bo basics. To be sure, not everything great that he did is here by any means -- a bunch of great singles are missing, such as the crushing boogie of "Diddly Wah Diddy," ...

Yardbirds Story: 1963-66

Yardbirds Story: 1963-66 (2002) more music like this

by The Yardbirds

Spread over four discs, this set contains every released recording the Yardbirds made under the leadership of their manager Giorgio Gomelsky from 1963 to 1966. Among the 89 tracks are the original hit versions of "Heart Full of Soul," "For Your Love," "Shapes of Things," "Still I'm Sad" along with a slew of rarities, alternate takes and an ...

My Generation [Deluxe Edition] (2002) more music like this

by The Who

As many Who fans know, disputes between the Who and producer Shel Talmy held back the release of a CD version of My Generation taken from the best available original sources for quite some time. Eventually the dispute was resolved, and 2002 saw the release of the deluxe edition of this classic album, expanded into a two-CD work with the addition ...

Hey Bo Diddley: A Tribute!

Hey Bo Diddley: A Tribute! (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

A nice idea -- although a better, more eclectic tribute can be found on Rhino's Bo Diddley Beats compilation, released a decade earlier. Hey Bo Diddley: A Tribute! follows in the celebrated '90s tradition of corralling established blues and rock talents and letting them pay homage to their heroes in the studio, often with the help of a common ...

25 Hits from the British Invasion

25 Hits from the British Invasion (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

As a single-disc compilation of British Invasion hits, this has a lot of shortcomings that prevent it from being close to an optimum British Invasion best-of, though it has a good deal of fine music. The strongest point in its favor is its quantity: there are 25 songs here of various British Invasion styles, which is good value for one CD. The ...

Search and Destroy

Search and Destroy (2004) more music like this

by Iggy & the Stooges

Although the Stooges only got around to issuing a total of three records during their short but colorful career, there is an overabundance of outtakes sets on the market -- most of which zero in on the Raw Power era. This material has been repackaged an insanely high number of times over the years, and in 1999, the Cleopatra label issued another ...

Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

Good Morning Little Schoolgirl (2005) more music like this

by Eric Clapton & the Yardbirds

This double-disc set offers two budget-line collections of scraps from two lineups of the Yardbirds: one featuring Clapton, one featuring Beck. This is the stuff that shows up on budget-line comps all the time and while this isn't one of the best, it isn't one of the worst, either, as far as these things go. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music ...

Consolidated Mojo

Consolidated Mojo (2005) more music like this

by Billy Boy Arnold

Recorded in San Francisco in 1992 with producer/harpist Mark Hummel's band of the time, but not released until 2005 for reasons that are not explained in the liner notes, this is better than average traditional Chicago blues from one of the genre's creators. All 14 tracks were cut in a single eight-hour session with no time for overdubs at the end ...

Purity Accuracy (2004) more music like this

by MC5

With just about every veteran rock act getting the "box-set treatment" by the early 21st century, it was only a matter of time until one of Detroit proto-punk's finest, the MC5, got their own multi-disc overview. And it finally arrived in 2004, in the form of the six-disc box, Purity Accuracy. But this sprawling comp does not follow the expected ...

The Very Best of the Yardbirds [Metro] (2005) more music like this

by The Yardbirds

This is another of the ubiquitous Yardbirds compilations to utilize the band's 1963-1966 output, what are referred to informally as the Giorgio Gomelsky tapes (referring to their ex-manager, though he sold his rights to this material off decades ago). As a compilation, it's mainly distinguished by its relatively good sound -- they've gone to good ...

The Time Has Come (2006) more music like this

by The Alarm Clocks

There are one-hit wonders and then there are no-hit wonders. The Alarm Clocks fall into the latter category, one of countless adrenalized suburban garage bands that released a single in the '60s -- theirs was "No Reason to Complain" backed with "Yeah," issued on the Awake label in the immortal year of 1966 -- only to disappear as quickly as they'd ...

Great (2000) more music like this

by Eric Clapton

The somewhat misleadingly-named Great Eric Clapton & the Yardbirds gathers three discs' worth of the Yardbirds' output, including highlights from Clapton's and Jeff Beck's stints with the band. The set features obvious choices like "For Your Love," "Evil Hearted You," "Heart Full of Soul," "Train Kept A-Rollin'" and "Shapes of Things" as well as ...

Hey! Bo Diddley/Bo Diddley (1996) more music like this

by Bo Diddley

Beat Goes On reissued Bo Diddley's eponymous debut and his 1962 effort Hey! Bo Diddley on one compact disc in 1996. Although these two records don't necessarily sit well together -- the first is sublime, the second notoriously uneven -- it's still a nice way to pick them up on CD, especially since the sound and packaging are first-rate. However, ...

Vamp (2005) more music like this

by Bo Diddley

Oddly, while effusively acknowledging Bo Diddley's enduring influence on both the R&B and rock scenes, the sleeve notes to this set are less than complimentary when talking about the artist's recording career, at least as far as nearly the last four decades go. But perhaps that's the unstated point -- Diddley may disappoint on disc, but on-stage ...

Replacing Raven's first Yardbirds compilation, Over Under Sideways Down: A Comprehensive Collection 1963-1968, their 2008 set Happenings Ten Years Time Ago 1964-1968 shares many characteristics with its predecessor, right down to the cover shot snapped during the brief period that Beck and Page shared the same stage (just like Antonioni's Blow-Up) ...

Hey (2005) more music like this

by Bo Diddley

A relatively slick live set from the maverick Bo Diddley, Hey doesn't add anything significant to his legacy, but it certainly reaffirms it with sturdy renditions of "Roadrunner" and "Mona" and an over-ten-minute rendition of "I'm a Man." The introductory track opens with that patented shave-and-a-haircut rhythm that is known as "the Bo Diddley," ...

Five Live Yardbirds [Japan 2003 Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this

Any modern (i.e., post-'80s) remastered version of the basic concert document Five Live Yardbirds is worth hearing, but there are a lot of choices out there. This Japanese reissue of this CD, from JVC, is actually less ambitious in some ways than the European Repertoire Records or the Fuel 2000/Varese Saraband domestic U.S. reissue. The original ...
