to begin with I absolutely abhor all the so called commercial stuff they did. Meddel and Dark slight of the moon and beyond were all atrocious LPs and cds.
This one, and the zabrisky point soundtrack and atomheartmutha and oomagooma are good staff also obscurred by clothsis an okay album yes?

Who's Next (Deluxe Edition)

CD-Charts > Music > Supergroups
by: The Who

Release Date March 25, 2003
I like the Deluxe Edition packaging in general, and the remix on the original album tracks is superb. I do have one complaint: MCA needs to release one CD of all of The Who's 1971 Olympic recordings. The Who cut 17 songs (that were eventually released) as part of the Who's Next sessions at Olympic Studios for an intended double album, and they all sound fantastic. The Who never sounded better than they did on these tracks, with Glyn Johns producing and giving the excellent band performances a remarkably clean sound (compare Quadrophenia, where the band's sound tended to be washed out by the brass arrangements), and with the great Nicky Hopkins providing brilliant piano work which makes several songs by itself . In fact, it is difficult for me to ... Read More:

The Game (+ Bonus Track)

CD-Charts > Music > Supergroups
by: Queen

Release Date June 17, 1991
As most people know, this was the first Queen album to utilize synthesizers, though they did not go overboard with them, as they later did on 1982's "Hot Space." This album opens with the sublime Mercury-penned "Play the Game," then heads into more bass-laden funky tunes like "Dragon Attack" and "Another One Bites the Dust." There are some weaker songs on here as well, notably Roger Taylor's "Rock It (Prime Jive)" and "Coming Soon," which are both kind of...well, dumb. "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" is a rockabilly goof/homage that actually works. "Need Your Loving Tonight" is a light bit of pop, but not bad. This is also shorter in length than their '70s albums, so that's a bit disappointing. A mixed bag of songs and definitely a new era as Queen ... Read More:

Classic Queen

CD-Charts > Music > Supergroups
by: Queen

Release Date March 10, 1992
What hasn't been said about Queen? They are definitely one of the best classic rock bands of all-time. Led by Freddie Mercury, they made some of the best rock of the '70s, '80s and early '90s.

And now to the review. 'Classic Queen' is full of five star music. But, is this really necessary? I don't think so. Yes, 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is here, but like 'I Want To Break Free' on the American version of 'Greatest Hits,' it's out of place. 'Classic Queen' mostly focuses on the 1981-1991 time period, so why are these '70s tracks here?

Thank goodness for 'The Platinum Collection' and 'Greatest Hits I & II.' Those are the original U.K. hit collections. Do yourself a favor and seek that out instead. There, you will find most of the songs offered ... Read More:

Emotional Rescue

by: The Rolling Stones

Release Date July 26, 1994
After all these years I played this and it was as much fun as it was the first time I had heard it.

I love the rough lazy casual feel about the songs. I imagined them playing, without much effort, cigarette smoke, booze lying around and just the songs pouring out. Indian girl was my least favourite. Where The Boys Go and She's So Cold as the best tracks. I liked the way they took Disco and made it theirs.

Years later I read reviews really giving this album bad ratings......dont know why......

Anyway, it's playing right now, and Where the Boys Go is about to begin....LOL this is going to be fun...again!

Odds & Sods

Release Date March 10, 1998
This was a purchase of a CD to replace the cassette version of this album that I had enjoyed. I obviously knew then that I would like it from a musical standpoint. As an added extra, it contained many more songs that were not on the cassette version. Although there were no songs I had never heard, there were different versions of some of them that I had not heard (studio v.s. live or just a different version). Overall I am extemely satisfied, Shipping was fast and CD was received in excellent condition. Overall, an excellent transaction.

Sheer Heart Attack

CD-Charts > Music > Supergroups
by: Queen

Release Date March 05, 1991
Looking back at the 1970s, sometimes many forget how big the band Queen was. Even as Queen moved into the 1980s, while their popularity did slightly decline in the United States, it continued to be very high in Europe. Their performance at Live Aid is widely considered one of the greatest of all-time and their subsequent "Magic" tour is considered one of the all-time greatest concert tours. If it weren't for Freddie Mercury's death in 1992, we might still be talking about Queen being as big a band as the Beatles. When Queen released their 1973 self-titled debut album, it showed all of the signs of greatness to come. This album would show how the band embraced a "theatrical" feel to their music (which was something seen by other bands such as the Kinks) as well as embrace a sound ... Read More:

Tattoo You

CD-Charts > Music > Supergroups
by: The Rolling Stones

Release Date July 26, 1994
Apparently this album was made out of outtakes from previous albums but it's very good indeed. In fact it's one of their best albums from the 80's. It was released in 1981 and features both lead guitarists Ron Wood and Mick Taylor plus Wayne Perkins who played during the "Black And Blue" sessions. For the rhythm section there's rhythm guitarist Keith Richards, bass player Bill Wyman, and drummer Charlie Watts as always.

The first track "Star Me Up" is one of their most popular songs by far! It's still played on radio frequently. "Hang Fire" and "Neighbours" are memorable up tempo rockers.
There's also a jam called "Slave" that includes a catchy riff plus keyboard and saxophone solos.
"Little T&A" is sung by rhythm guitarist Keith Richards and it's pure hard ... Read More:
