The Harry Smith Project: The Anthology Of American Folk Music Revisited (2 CD/2 DVD BOX SET)

Dagmar Krause by Hanns Eisler
1 recommendation
"I'm one of those music addicts that refuses to listen to Broadway Musicals written after 1979, yet I'm a fan of Broadway 'like' composers such as David Bowie, Kate Bush, Nina Hagen, and so on. At some point the music of Weill and Brecht and Eisler was introduced to me through the iconic voice of Dagmar Krause. "Tank Battles: Songs of Hanns Eisler" contains many of Eisler's strongest works, and I'..."
The Velvet Underground - Gold
1 recommendation
"I'm Waiting For The Man is one of the best songs EVER! It's raw and edgy and dangerous. The Velvets were way ahead of their time. Get this CD to see why (in case you have been living on another planet for the past 35 years) and remember."
Roxy Music: Country Life
1 recommendation
"Take a trip back to the days before the New Romantics, when Roxy Music created rocket fueled ballads which touch upon WWII songwriters. The Thrill Of It All, Out Of The Blue, Triptych, Casanova, Prairie Rose are prequels to songs later crafted by Nick Cave's Bad Seeds, Japan, Duran Duran, Talking Heads and others."
Nico: Chelsea Girl
4 recommendations
"Listening to early Nico it like watching a crystal chandler swinging in the wind."
Trainspotting: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
2 recommendations
"Like a snapshot for the mid 1980s time period of the film mixed with a snapshot of the Brit Pop scene of the mid 1990s. These are songs filled with the exuberant invinciblity of youth, dreary comedowns, heart-stopping withdrawal and surges of joy. It made Iggy Pop's Lust For Life an even more ironic anthem, and had dance floors filled with the "lager! lager! lager!" refrain from Underworld's Born ..."

"If imitations won't do, try eBay for a bottle of Chanel Black Satin nail polish and get our your platinum card. It's not priceless, but it is, apparenly, worth its weight in gold."
Lulu by Lou Reed & Metallica
1 recommendation
"Lou Reed and Metallica's "Lulu" falls from the same tree as Heavy Metal, Prog-Rock, and Opera. Although "Lulu" fits in the tight sonic space Scott Walker cut into pop music, I like to think of "Lulu" as Opera, or a contemporary refection of that genre. On the other hand, "Lulu" could also be looked at as an audio book, which in someways is more exciting. Still I would love to see how "Lulu" might ..."
Rock And Roll Animal by Lou Reed
1 recommendation
"I always liked this cover, it's Glam, Punk, Bondage, and Horror Show all in one."
The Velvet Underground - Loaded (Fully Loaded Edition)
2 recommendations
"VU loaded! If the colors from the cloud of smoke on the cover start changing colors...you definately had one too many brownies! X"
David Bowie: Lodger
1 recommendation
"David dose Scott Walker, Iggy and Lou Reed impersonations for your pleasure. I like the freaky photography, Madison Avenue meets Kubrick."
Live At Monterey - Jimi Hendrix
1 recommendation
"Perhaps the most famous of Hendrix's releases, he was at his PRIME when they recorded this version of Purple Haze. "When Jimi Hendrix walked onto the stage at Monterey he was relatively unknown in the United States. When he walked off the stage, popular music had been completely transformed. The American debut of the Jimi Hendrix Experience at Monterey isn't just the most exciting live rock con..."
Live Rust - Neil Young
1 recommendation
"Cinammon Girl, The Needle and the Damage Done, SUGAR MOUNTAIN, After the Gold Rush, Tonight's the Night - this album is QUITE the collection of some of Young's best hits. "In addition to the mellow songs, there are some louder, electric ones that are incredible as well, with Cinnamon Girl and Like a Hurricane being good examples. This album definitely has the 'live' thing going for it, and wh..."
At Budokan - Cheap Trick
1 recommendation
"A Must have for Cheap trick fans (ooh and look how cute they look!) "This is the album that broke Cheap Trick wide open in the U.S. Sure, there's a Complete Budokan version available, but 1} It's a bit pricey, and 2) unless you were at that concert in Japan, then a couple of omitted songs and a re-arranged track order is inconciquential. This version, is the version I REMEMBER, and the one ..."
Live At Leeds (25th Anniversary Edition) - The Who
1 recommendation
"The Who was/were/are one of my favorites. I was fortunate enough to work at their record label in the late 70's and heard them play in small rooms for promotional functions...but I gotta tell you in the 90's I paid HUGE BUCKS ($250) to see them at the LA Forum and they sounded even better than they had in those small rooms 15 years earlier. You can never tire of The Who! I think my favorite ..."
Live With Lou Reed, Vol.1 - The Velvet Underground:
1 recommendation
"The track listing on this record beats all the other albums if you ask me...it's got: Sweet Jane, We're gonna have a real good time, Heroin, Waiting for The Man, Rock 'n Roll...and the list goes on. "As far as Velvet Underground live material, I had only heard Live at Max's Kansas City, which I love, so I expected more of the same from the 1969 material, fidelity wise, before I heard this. S..."
Live At Carnegie Hall - Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble
1 recommendation
"This amazing album is kind of like a double edged sword. I also get so happy when I hear Stevie Ray, but laced with a heavy heart due to his untimely demise. Especially because I was working for the Music Distributor and set up the conference and helicopter transportation on which he was killed. I remember the next day - the shock, the sadness, the inability to accept what had happened. I ..."
Made In Japan - Deep Purple
1 recommendation
"OK, the most incredible collection of tracks including: Highway Star, Smoke On The Water (to most this was known as "Smoke Marijuana!" - Kids will be kids!), Strange Kind Of Woman, Lazy (how can you not be singing right now...Lazy, you just stay in bed...), and Space Truckin' to name a few, OMG - to me there is no better reminiscent collection of the impact Deep Purple had on my high school ..."
Alive! by Kiss
1 recommendation
"This "Double LP" is a bang for the buck at under $10. And, if you buy this, Amazon has an offer for 12 months of Rolling Stone mag for just one buck! A triple whammy! Quoting from Amazon: 5 Stars You Wanted The Best? This Is What Started It All..., November 16, 2003 By : "The Woj" (Downers Grove, IL) Having released 3 poorly produced studio records and one step away from the poor hou..."
Unplugged: Eric Clapton
1 recommendation
"Anyone who likes blues, guitar, the old Cream band or just good ole fashion rock already knows and is a fan of Eric Clapton. I believe him to be perhaps one of the top 5 guitarists anywhere. Borrowing a quote from Amazon.. Anthony Trendl editor, HungarianBookstore.com Says it earns 5 stars... "Clapton plays guitar. His fingers dance across the strings in "Signe," with the kind of virtuo..."
