A Decade of Hits 1969-1979
(1991)

by
The Allman Brothers Band
The record industry's blatantly greedy ploy of remastering and "upgrading" CDs is shameful. The sonics are usually improved, but the CDs could have been mastered properly the first time. But then fans wouldn't buy the same titles twice. The Allman Brothers Band's indispensable compilation A Decade of Hits 1969-1979 was reissued in 2000, just nine ...

by
The Allman Brothers Band
Brothers and Sisters, the Allman Brothers Band's first new studio album in two years, shows off a leaner brand of musicianship, which, coupled with a pair of serious crowd-pleasers, "Ramblin' Man" and "Jessica," helped drive it to the top of the charts for a month and a half and to platinum record sales. This was the first album to feature the ...

Goin' South Platinum Edition
(2007)

by
Various Artists
Collecting the best from both volumes of Goin' South, Goin' South Platinum Edition mixes dyed-in-the-wool Southern rock with songs that mesh well, even if they aren't technically that style. Geographically, the Band are far north of the Mason-Dixon line, but "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down"'s Southern Gothic mood makes it a good fit with the ...

Pure 70's

by
Various Artists
Since there was a Pure Funk and Pure Disco, it makes sense that a Pure '70s would follow. It couldn't be called "Pure Rock," since a lot of this simply doesn't rock at all -- "American Pie," anyone? However, all 20 songs on this collection (mostly culled from the Polygram vaults) reek of the '70s, and that's why this is a fun listen. Yes, it's ...

The Allman Brothers Band
In Stand Back's subtitle, the word "The" is no mistake, nor is it a grammatical convenience. This sprawling two-disc set is the only cross-licensed retrospective to dig into the all of the band's studio recordings from its debut in 1969 to 2003's Hittin' the Note and to offer not only representative cuts but the shining examples of the band's ...

Dreams

by
The Allman Brothers Band
Spanning four discs and nearly 100 tracks, Dreams is one of those rare box sets that tells a story while delivering the definitive word on its subject. Its success has a lot to do with its status as Polygram/Bill Levinson's sequel to the acclaimed hit Crossroads, which summarized Eric Clapton's winding career perfectly. They follow the same ...

The Allman Brothers Band
With the 1991 compilation A Decade of Hits 1969-1979 still in print, you may ask why Polydor found it necessary to release The Best of the Allman Brothers Band as part of the Universal Music Group's 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection. After all, the new 11-track album shares nine selections with the earlier 16-track one. The simple ...

Millennium Classic Rock Party

by
Various Artists
The "millennium" in Rhino's Millennium Classic Rock Party collection really is just a way to tart up a basic collection of familiar album rock songs. Nothing about this disc says anything about the millennium -- it just summarizes the '70s. On that level, it's really quite good, since it contains 20 tracks that have come to define classic rock ...

Big Fish

by
Danny Elfman
The soundtrack to Tim Burton's unusually subdued, sentimental Big Fish collects pop songs from the '30s through the '70s as well as longtime collaborator Danny Elfman's score and a new song from Pearl Jam, "Man of the Hour." Though Burton's quirky, eerie aesthetic would normally be at odds with Pearl Jam's earnestness, the two work well together ...

This live album was released by Capricorn Records largely as a way of raising money in a hurry, but it fares surprisingly well musically. The 1973-1974 Allman Brothers Band featured here is the one that most fans actually saw, since most listeners didn't discover them or get to their concerts until after the deaths of Duane Allman and Berry Oakley ...

Goin' South isn't actually as Southern as its title or marketing suggest; while most of the songs here are pretty compatible musically, only about half of them fall under strict definitions of Southern rock. That said, there really isn't much here that Southern rock fans won't enjoy -- most of it is informed by country and/or blues, and boogies ...

Billboard Top Rock & Roll Hits: 1973

by
Various Artists
Looking at this set culled from 1973's Billboard charts, the music of the 1960s seems not to have existed. Included are no less than two Elton John songs, the bombastic album rock of Edgar Winter's fabulous "Frankenstein," and flinty R&B from Marvin Gaye and Billy Preston that didn't dance around its subject matter or drown it with innuendo. There ...

Rebound's The Best of Southern Rock comes damn close to fulfilling the promise of the title.

This is an average collection of classic rock radio hits from the '70s. The only difference between this and a host of similar classic rock compilations is Casey Kasem's name attached to it. Among the 20 tracks are "Smoke on the Water," "Fly Like an Eagle," "Come Sail Away," and "Sweet Home Alabama." While most of these songs fit the "classic rock ...

The concept behind Southern Rock Country Style is simple enough: take classic Southern rock songs, mainly from the '70s, and get a bunch of modern country singers to sing them.

No, this discount-priced compilation of recordings from the PolyGram vaults (initially released on A&M, Capricorn, De-Lite, MGM, Mango, Mercury, Motown, Polydor, and Tamla) does not contain the greatest hits of 1974 by any statistical measure. Not even close. It does contain some big hits from that year, notably the gold, #1 records "You Ain't ...

This volume in the RCA Country Legends series is perhaps its most overdue.

While he had a ...
