by
The Blues Brothers
The title of The Blues Brothers Complete pretty much says it all; the double-disc, 35-track collection contains everything Jake and Elwood Blues recorded during the peak of their career. The catch is that the compilation was only released by EastWest/Atlantic's Australian division, therefore, it's hard to find outside of Australia. But, for ...

Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen
This is really the final hurrah for the band, in spite of the fact that there were more recordings to follow. This is a two-record set from their 1976 tour of Europe with most of the original members still onboard. After this tour, George Frayne (aka Commander Cody) broke up the band, which now included Norton Buffalo. While this live recording is ...

by
The Blues Brothers
It isn't exactly difficult to scoff at the Blues Brothers -- beginning your musical career as a sketch on Saturday Night Live is not the best way to develop artistic credibility, and while Elwood Blues wasn't too shabby a harp player, his brother, Joliet Jake, sang only marginally better than that guy who used to impersonate Joe Cocker on late ...

Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen
This is Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen at their best, live on-stage and out on the road with the New Riders of the Purple Sage. What a bill and what a grand time for a live album. This is how it really was -- wild, loud, and fun. Again, they intersperse their own songs with old favorites. "Armadillo Stomp" was penned for this event, and a ...

Wanda Jackson was, and, it seems, remains, almost 50 years later, the undisputed queen of rockabilly. Her self-titled comeback album from 2001 was a stellar example of her remaining rock & roll swagger, but this time out, she has a host of the faithful famous paying tribute. Dave Alvin, Elvis Costello, the Cramps, Lee Rocker, and the Cadillac ...

by
Dr. Feelgood
Dr. Feelgood's second album and their American debut, Malpractice was represented a major step forward for the group -- for starters, it was in stereo. Add to that the fact that the quartet had refined its sound, so that it was a match for what the Rolling Stones had generated on their debut album, and you had the makings of a classic; Lee ...

by
Wanda Jackson
Ace Records' Queen of Rockabilly is such a good idea for a Wanda Jackson collection that it's astonishing that it didn't get put together and released until 2000 -- or that Bear Family Records, which is no slouch when it comes to distilling down certain aspects and angles of American country and rock & roll stars, didn't do it first. It should ...

Vintage Collections Series

by
Wanda Jackson
This 20-track anthology of Wanda Jackson's early work is roughly equal to Rhino's Rockin' in the Country in value. Rockin' in the Country offers a considerably wider range, chronologically speaking. Vintage Collections Series, on the other hand, focuses on 1956-1961 recordings, affording greater depth for what is acknowledged as her most fertile ...

Dr. Feelgood
Singles -- The UA Years is a terrific double-album set that chronicles all of Dr. Feelgood's major singles, from 1976's "Roxette" to 1986's "See You Later Alligator." Although the hits-only approach leaves out some major Feelgood songs, Singles remains a first-rate retrospective, and for many years, it was the best Dr. Feelgood collection ...

Various Artists
Of the numerous various-artist compilation CDs that have attempted to anthologize the recordings of the late '40s and early '50s most crucial to planting the seeds for rock & roll, this three-CD, 60-song set is probably the most definitive. Most prior collections along these lines have failed to present a truly comprehensive picture of rock & roll ...

The Blues Brothers
Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi were avid R&B fans who turned their characters from a Saturday Night Live comedy skit into a cartoon version of a living, breathing soul band. It helped, of course, that the musicians they hired to back them up just happened to be Stax Records' A-unit studio band, which means Jake and Elwood Blues could have read ...

Calling this album In Stereo might seem to imply that it has there is some other Flat Duo Jets album that is recorded in lower fidelity -- in mono, perhaps. Maybe even a 78 or an Edison cylinder. I don't know of any album by this band in any of those media, but it would certainly be appropriate. This is rock & roll at a level so primitive and ...
