No Big Surprise: Anthology

by
Steve Goodman
This posthumous compilation, released on Goodman's own Red Pajamas label, spans two discs: the first highlighting his best studio cuts, with the second disc exclusively devoted to live tracks. About half of the songs are previously unreleased material or unreleased live recordings. This is probably overkill for the casual fan who just wants the ...

by
Willie Nelson/Leon Russell
One for the Road, Willie Nelson's duet record with fellow American music maverick Leon Russell, followed months after his freewheeling, jam-heavy double album Willie and Family Live. This record (once a double LP, now a single CD) wasn't recorded live and the songs run a little shorter, but it shares the same sort of loose spirit and easy-rolling ...

Proper Records presents a four-CD, 97-track anthology devoted to music recorded during the golden years of Gypsy jazz, from swing to bop to a bit of the cool (1934-1956). Happily, this tradition is still very much alive, and the recordings compiled herein demonstrate why even Joseph Goebbels, Adolf Eichmann, and Heinrich Himmler couldn't stamp it ...

The Collection: Stardust/One for the Road/Honeysuckle Rose [Bonus Tracks]

by
Willie Nelson
On the one hand, it's difficult to argue against any collection of three albums that begins with Stardust even if the other two don't live up to its promise. Still, the fact that these three recordings were already issued together once might have been enough. Here are the three discs remastered, and Sony Legacy claims bonus tracks. And yes, there ...

Days of Wine and Roses is a comprehensive three-disc box set featuring all of Henry Mancini's most popular and best-known works in their original versions.

It's an OK collection for its budget price, ...

Fourteen-year-old Laurie London was as successful as a one-hit wonder could be -- his debut single and only hit, a rendition of the spiritual "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands," made it all the way to the top of the charts in the United States. He was also a one-hit wonder in his native England, but a less spectacular one because the song ...

U-Roy had already made the rounds of producers and cut a handful of singles which had created quite a stir in the underground scene. But it was only after the DJ hooked up with producer Duke Reid that the rest of Jamaica awoke to the DJ's charms.

Downloading the Repertoire

Jack Mudurian
How do you describe this one? Take an old guy who lives in a nursing home in Boston and likes to sing, pop a 90-minute tape into your hand-held cassette recorder, and challenge him to sing for 45 minutes continuously. The result is an unedited, rambling, often incoherent 129 medley that takes in the first half century of American popular song. To ...

If you ever wanted to know where the spirit of the late Earl Hooker went, it's in the capable hands of young Rick Holstrom. All instrumental albums are a rarity in blues, but Holmstrom's inventive ideas are top notch, making each track stand mightily on its own. Perhaps better known for his excellent backing work behind harmonica ace Johnny Dyer ...
