The Joker

The Joker (1973) more music like this

by Steve Miller Band

The Joker is, without question, the turning point in Steve Miller's career, the album where he infused his blues with a big, bright dose of pop and got exactly what he deserved: top ten hits and stardom. He also lost a lot of fans, the ones that dug his winding improvs, because those spacey jams were driven by chops and revealed new worlds. The ...

The Platinum Collection

The Platinum Collection (2007) more music like this

by The Clovers

The Clovers were sort of a transition group straddling the smooth pop style of the Ink Spots and the Platters and later more rock & roll-oriented groups like the Coasters and the Drifters. Beginning with 1951's "Don't You Know I Love You," the group merged urban blues sensibilities with a touch of gospel to create the template for what would ...

Extended Versions

Extended Versions (2003) more music like this

by Steve Miller

The title of this CD should actually be called "Steve Miller Band Live". This cheapo BMG disc from the Encore Collection doesn't have any liner notes, making it impossible to decipher where or when these tracks were recorded. As for the quality of these live performances, they aren't bad, and credit should be given for the inclusion of early ...

Red Hot

Red Hot (1999) more music like this

by Billy Lee Riley

Billy Lee Riley was not one of the better known artists to come out of Sun Records during the rockabilly years, but he was effective, and at times utterly powerful on both his recordings, and as a live performer who could rival, on his best nights, Jerry Lee Lewis. This 26-track collection contains virtually every side you would ever want-and then ...

Let the Boogie Woogie Rock'n Roll (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Atlantic was one of the most important labels in the slide from R&B to rock & roll, and this anthology presents 25 tracks, most of them rare and little-known, illustrating the process. A few cuts here and there will be well known to '50s rock fans, like Ray Charles' "Mess Around," the Clovers' "Your Cash Ain't Nothin' but Trash," and Clyde ...

This 21-song compilation covers the six-year history of one of history's most important R&B groups at Atlantic Records. All of the Clovers' charting singles are represented (albeit not in release order), along with notes indicating their chart history.

Anthology (1998) more music like this

by The Clovers

The pride and joy of Washington, D.C., this smooth R&B/doo wop group ranks as the genres' most successful messengers, enjoying a string of hits -- from 1951 to 1958 -- for Atlantic Records. Ahmet Ertegun, Atlantic's owner, wrote eight of their first nine singles. This is not a definitive collection; some hits are included (i.e., "Lovey Dovey," ...

Snake Eyes (2002) more music like this

by Eddie "Guitar" Burns with Jimmy Burns

Like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and John Lee Hooker, Eddie "Guitar" Burns is a perfect example of a bluesman who was born and raised in Mississippi but made his mark after he moved north and went electric. The main difference between Burns and those other bluesmen -- all of whom he outlived -- is the fact that he isn't a great singer. While ...

OKeh Rhythm & Blues (1993) more music like this

Your Cash Ain't Nothin but Trash: Their Greatest Hits 1951-55 (2006) more music like this

by The Clovers

Starting out as a straight vocal harmony group along the lines of the Orioles and the Ravens, the Clovers gradually made the shift to a harder R&B sound after they signed with Atlantic Records in 1951, hitting right out of the gate with the saxophone-fed "Don't You Know I Love You" followed by 1952's "One Mint Julip" and "Ting-A-Ling," and 1953's ...
