Rubber Soul [UK]

by
The Beatles
While the Beatles still largely stuck to love songs on Rubber Soul, the lyrics represented a quantum leap in terms of thoughtfulness, maturity, and complex ambiguities. Musically, too, it was a substantial leap forward, with intricate folk-rock arrangements that reflected the increasing influence of Dylan and the Byrds. The group and George Martin ...

The Best...So Far
(1994)
more music like this
by
Anne Murray
A serviceable 20-song distillation of the biggest hits from the box set. However, here's the kicker: the single disc includes "Over You," a new-old track from the vaults (released as a single) which is not included in the box set. So if you want to have it all... Roch Parisien, All Music Guide

Greatest Hits
(1980)
more music like this
by
Anne Murray
It covers Murray's first decade in the international limelight, beginning with "Snowbird" and concluding with "Could I Have This Dance?," a track from the 1980 movie Urban Cowboy. It ranges from the folky "Danny's Song" to her cover of The Beatles' "You Won't See Me," but the middle-of-the-road approach is quite obvious. Tom Roland, All Music ...

These Foolish Things

more music like this
by
Bryan Ferry
Much like his contemporary David Bowie, Ferry consolidated his glam-era success with a covers album, his first full solo effort even while Roxy Music was still going full steam. Whereas Bowie on Pin-Ups focused on British beat and psych treasures, Ferry for the most part looked to America, touching on everything from Motown to the early jazz ...

Rubber Soul [US]
(1965)
more music like this
by
The Beatles
In a stroke of marketing whimsy, Capitol Records removed four songs from the U.K. edition of Rubber Soul, and added two songs from the U.K. Help! in an attempt to offer a more "American" release. Surprisingly enough, the reworked U.S. edition holds together better than its British counterpart. Obviously inspired by the folk-rock sound blossoming ...

by
Ozzy Osbourne
It's surprising that with all of the media attention aimed at Ozzy Osbourne, the self-crowned "Prince of Darkness," since his debut as the perpetually numb rock star dad on The Osbournes, it took so long for his incredibly savvy marketing-machine/wife to put out a proper box set. Here you have an artist who fronted one of the world's most ...

Bonnie Tyler
Yet another greatest-hits compilation from Bonnie Tyler, the Welsh female version of Rod Stewart. She has released a few hits collections, including full-price titles on RCA and CBS and several budget titles on Castle, Crimson, and Camden, and despite her multitude of hit singles, none of performed particularly well on the album charts. This ...

Anne Murray
All of Me is a rather peculiar entry in Anne Murray's discography. After releasing I'll Be Seeing You in October of 2004, Straightway essentially reissued it (not even modifying the artwork, save for the title) with a second disc of Anne Murray's greatest hits. Die-hard fans should not be fooled by this attempt to purchase the same album twice, ...

This Bird Has Flown: 40th Anniversary Tribute to Rubber Soul [Razor & Tie]

more music like this
by
Various Artists
There have been countless tribute albums, but relatively few have been an album-length salute to a proper album. Most notably there was NME's 1988 Sgt. Pepper Knew My Father, which had a nice sense of humor and adventure, featuring such excellent pairings as Sonic Youth and "Within You, Without You," Billy Bragg and "She's Leaving Home," and the ...

The Beatles Box Set [1992]

The Beatles
At one level, one would have to be a collector, an Anglophile, or a 1960s pop culture enthusiast to consider this 14-CD set a good deal. In the U.K., the EP ("extended play" single), which contains more tracks than an ordinary single and fewer than an album, has always been a far more popular format than it is in the U.S. During their heyday, the ...

The ABC Rarities

more music like this
by
The Impressions
Twenty-six song compilation of non-LP singles, rarities that only showed up on obscure reissues and various-artists collections, and material (both released and unreleased) from their sessions for their late-'60s The Versatile Impressions album. As a listen it's a little uneven, due in large part to the over-preponderance of standards from ...

Things I Gave Away

by
Mollie O'Brien
O'Brien's brand of the country-blues weaves in strands of Cajun and bluegrass with a distinct pop influence. Equally eclectic is her choice of tunes by the likes of Lennon & McCartney, Abbey Lincoln, and Percy Mayfield. But as diverse as the elements may seem, it makes for a satisfying whole. At the center of it all is O'Brien's sweet, clear alto ...

The Music Company
Booker T. & the MG's' LP dedicated to covers of much of the material on a specific Beatles album (1970's McLemore Avenue, which focused on songs from Abbey Road) was the first such project to get widespread critical attention. It's sometimes forgotten, however, that it wasn't the first effort of its sort. About four years before, a bunch of top ...

Dennis Brown
Cited by Bob Marley as his favorite singer, Dennis Brown's death in 1999 at 42 cut short an extraordinary career that spawned some 100 albums, and close to 300 singles, and while maintaining consistent artistic quality would obviously be difficult given such a massive catalog, this set shows why even his second-line releases are worth checking out ...
