Happy Doing What We're Doing (2005) more music like this

by Elizabeth McQueen and the FireBrands

In America, there are a lot more music fans who have no more than a vague idea of what pub rock was than those who have an active working knowledge of the stuff. Philosophically, pub rock was a U.K.-based precursor to punk, but while punk was the sound of kids smashing up rock's formal structures and stripping them to the frame, the pub bands were ...

Sire Sessions: The Rockfield Recordings (1997) more music like this

by The Searchers

The 23 songs here comprise the band's 1979-1980 recordings for Seymour Stein's Sire label, originally spread among two LPs that appeared in different versions in England and America.

40th Anniversary Collection (2003) more music like this

by The Searchers

This reviewer is usually loathe to give compilation albums the highest rating, as they have an unfair advantage over original albums; and it's not as though there aren't already good multi-CD sets on the Searchers, including their 30th Anniversary Collection from Sequel Records. But this two-disc, 56-song collection goes into territory where the ...

Love's Melodies (1981) more music like this

by The Searchers

These two albums (The Searchers and Love's Melodies) represent the Searchers at their peak as a recording outfit, having maintained their original mid-'60s emphasis on excellent harmonies and crisply played guitars but also having absorbed lessons from such '70s pub-rockers as Brinsley Schwarz and roots-rock expert Dave Edmunds. The material is ...

Ducks Deluxe/Taxi to the Terminal Zone [Edsel] (1994) more music like this

by Ducks Deluxe

Both of the group's albums, Ducks Deluxe and Taxi to the Terminal Zone, compiled on one CD with one song from each removed to fit the format's time restriction -- really a best-of, and worth any three Led Zeppelin albums. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide

Ducks Deluxe/Taxi to the Terminal Zone [Beat Goes On] (2002) more music like this

by Ducks Deluxe

This two-CD reissue of Ducks Deluxe's first two albums differs from the previous Edsel two-on-one release, as no tracks were omitted due to space constraints. In retrospect, these recordings seem more relevant after the passage of time, as they provide a clearer linkage between British blues-based album rock and late-'70s punk and post-punk new ...

Don't Mind Rockin' Tonite (1978) more music like this

by Ducks Deluxe

After RCA failed to do much for the band when the label released their self-titled debut record in 1974, the powers that be decided that this collection of material from their two previous LPs, along with some outtakes and B-sides, would engender more interest in the band now that they had some punk/new wave credibility. Well, it was a good ...
