"Two reasons I love this disk: One, it's a recent 2007 release, which means it might have better audio than previous collections from say 1997. Two "Jump, Jive an' Wail" contains my favorite Louis Prima Keely Smith duet, the irresistible "That Old Black Magic "!!"
Time Capsule ~ B-52's
1 recommendation
"Over the years The B-52's have created a host of addictive pop tunes, and although their music often exist outside of the alternative radio, and MTV matrix, B52's songs like "Rock Lobster", "Planet Claire", "Love Shack", "Good Stuff" AND "Private Idaho" continue to move the masses on the dance floor. The B-52''s sound is both retro and futuristic, and thanks to their brilliant and completely or..."

"The music of the Cocteau Twins is such a delightful present from the groundbreaking UK music label 4AD. So sensual in it's sonic texture that thousands if not millions of people played Cocteau albums while making love. There is much to discover within the liquid-air sound the Cocteau Twins, here within the "Lullabies to Violaine" boxed discs I've reconnected to the Cocteau world which I know ve..."
The Best of Heaven 17
1 recommendation
"It was at that boat in Paris--the one that has all the live shows and parties--and the sun was rising as the deep-fried leftovers of last nights party slowly emerged on deck, making their way towards cars, public transport, nearby trees, ditches, or a curb to climb into, and all the wile as my zombie friends and I crossed onto land I could hear a beautiful song playing over the sound system to bid..."
The Best of the Smiths, Vol. 1

"At the risk of being uncovered as an only-buys-the-best-of-album-poser, I admit that I bought this CD a few years ago and I haven't been disappointed one bit. It has all the songs I remember from high school and a couple awesome tracks I was not angsty enough to know about at the time. ps. How did they get Jude Law to pose for the cover?"
Biosilk Silk Therapy
9 recommendations
""I'm lucky because I can either blow dry [my hair] straight, or just scrunch it with a bit of product for a wavy look," admits Girl Talk Pearl. "I usually use Biosilk Silk Therapy on the ends when my hair is wet. If I use it on dry hair, it weighs my hair down too much-- it's pretty thick stuff.""

The Charlatans UK - Forever: The Singles
1 recommendation
"While their peers have peaked and sputtered out or imploded, The Charlatans are still going strong after nearly 20 years recording. They're a band that has outlasted both the media's expectations and their peers, surviving the shoe-gazing, baggy Madchester scene, adding their retro-retro sound to the explosion of Brit Pop in the mid-90s and continuing to release startlingly good albums just as rec..."
Paul Weller - Hit Parade
1 recommendation
"It combines the jangly punk of The Jam, the sophisti-pop intellectualism of The Style Council, and the effortless soulfulness of Paul Weller's solo work. He's a masterful songwriter, an unbelievable musican, has one of the most compelling voices you'll ever hear and at the age of 48 is still the absolute epitome of cool. I know you've danced to A Town Called Malice in your underwear before (just l..."
Elton John - Greatest Hits
2 recommendations
"Looks like Elton John (or his label) is prolific with the "Best Of" albums. Being cheap, I got the $9 re-release rather than the $47 import. It has half the songs, but I haven't been disappointed. This is a great album to sing along to during a car trip up the coast."

Best Of Big Moe Chopped and Screwed (CD)
1 recommendation
"This album is a classic because it's NOT a classic. It's worth getting purely for the laughs. Big Moe is NOT worthy of a "Best of CD". He had maybe one hit, and that was barely worthwhile. Further, the album is "chopped and screwed" which is this weird technique of distorting and pitch shifting songs. Buy it!"
