Discipline: 30th Anniversary Editions by King Crimson Customer Review: ![]() King Crimson disbanded in 1974 after founding member and lead guitarist Robert Fripp thought it was time to put the band to rest feeling they had no more to contribute. Flash forward seven years to 1981 and the band is miraculously resurrected. With a new lineup of Fripp, original Crimson and... |

In The Court Of The Crimson King: 30th Anniversary Edition by King Crimson Customer Review: ![]() This was King Crimson's first release and an absolute stunner. King Crimson is not very known in my country, I listened a track by them 3-4 years ago in radio. I liked that so much when I saw this album firsttime in a music shop, I quickly grabbed that. The album is so beautiful i can't express in... |

Moby Grape by Moby Grape Price: $21.99 Customer Review: ![]() The three star rating represents an average: 5 stars for the album itself, and 1 star for this overpriced, underproduced reissue from the San Francisco Sound label. As other reviews testify, Moby Grape's 1967 debut represents both the band's high-point and an artistic peak of the mid-60s San... |

Larks' Tongues in Aspic by King Crimson Customer Review: ![]() "Larks' Tongues In Aspic" is King Crimson's aspiring masterwork from 1973. By this time, the band had gone through nearly half a dozen line-up changes in less than four years with guitarist Robert Fripp being the only mainstay through it all. In late 1972, Fripp hit upon something special when he... |

The Tiki Bar Is Open by John Hiatt Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() This is a John Hiatt record that sounds like much less on first listen than it really is. You think the man has just reverted to solid, simple rock to grab back the audience lost to his last acoustic outing, "Crossing Muddy Waters." But there is so much more to "The Tiki Bar is Open." Take, for... |

Fires at Midnight by Blackmore's Night Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() While browsing through a record store that let's you listen to samples of CDs, I ran across Ritchie Blackmores' latest. What a shock! The man long known as a primo hard rock guitarist from Deep Purple and Rainbow has gone medieval. Well sort off. The music is a blend of English folk and medieval... |

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() Not many people appreciate Captain Beefheart. In fact, many people truly loathe the man, and especially this album. Me, I don't see what the big deal is. Sure, it's really, incredibly, extraordinarily difficult the first three times, but after that, you could find yourself loving it. I know I do -... |

Red by King Crimson Customer Review: ![]() From the sharp military like precision of Red to the dirge like drone of Starless, it's clear that Fripp create a bang. The structure and songs of Red echo the general mood of In The Court of the Crimson King (albeit more sinister. While this isn't the best album put out by this version of Crimson... |

Duke Elegant by Dr John Price: $16.98 Customer Review: ![]() Wow! This is a fun, happy cd. Whenever I listen to it I feel a smile on my face & a glow. Dr. John has taken some of Ellington's best-known compositions & flavored them with his New Orleans spice to come up with a sublime concoction. Some of the previous reviews have better expressed the... |

Gov't Mule by Gov't Mule Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() Gov't Mule has made a debut album worthy of Metallica. "Rocking Horse", "Mule", and "Painted Silver Light" are my favorite tracks -- great songs. But a few of the songs for me just drag on and get boring, especially "Mother Earth". |

Live at the Greek by Jimmy Page Price: $24.99 Customer Review: ![]() This cd flat-out rocks! If you are the slightest fan of Zep, the Crowes, or general blues rock, then this is one you have to own. Odds are you are a fan of all three. What makes this cd truly great are the seldom-played Zeppelin tunes and the cover songs. The three guitars allow for songs like Ten... |

Cold Blood / Sisyphus by Cold Blood Price: $14.97 Customer Review: ![]() The best of times, the worst of times. Cold Blood's self titled first LP remains one of my "desert island" picks after all these years. The combined CD is worth the price for the first seven cuts. Unfortunately, nothing about the remastery improves the self indulgent wall paper pushed out after... |

Well kind of as XTC create a musical persona to play the type of music they loved as kids. Many of the best songs here (Colin Moulding's Vanishing Girl and Andy Partridge's Pale and Precious) would fit right in with the... |

Gris Gris by Dr John Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() I've owned this album for many years now, I consider it to be one of the most raw & unique albums ever recorded. It makes you feel as if you're sitting in a run-down New Orleans shack watching a voodoo ritual. Tunes like Cris-Gris Gumbo Ya Ya, Danse Fambeaux, Jump Sturdy & the ever so... |

Crossing Muddy Waters by John Hiatt Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() Bring The Family is the album which converted me. This seems like its companion CD. Genuine, casual, serious,....classic; John Hiatt at his very best. Having seen JH live 10+ times, I know there is nothing like a Rocking JH; but one always feels his roots and passion are in solid songwriting and his... |

Face to Face by Kinks Customer Review: ![]() Don't let the psychedelic appearance of the album art fool you into thinking this is somehow the Kinks' entry in the summer-of-love sweepstakes, including Sgt Pepper, Smiley Smile, Their Satanic Majesties Request, or Of Cabbages and Kings--all which were released in 1967. Instead this is Ray Davies... |

Shadow of the Moon by Blackmore's Night Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() I first heard Blackmore Night on Tampa's wonderful, listener-supported community radio station several weeks ago and was swept off my feet (well, would have been if I wasn't in my car driving to work) by Candice Night's beautiful, ethereal vocals. I find this music to be reminiscent of Loreena... |

Procol Harum - Greatest Hits [Metro] by Procol Harum Price: $13.98 Customer Review: ![]() Why can't anyone compile a decent "Best Of" CD for this great band? Well, probably because most of these incompetent "record execs" have been raised on crap music, and don't know enough about Procol Harum to handle the task. The fact that no one seems to be able to put this band's 10 or 12 classic... |

Slider (Dlx) by T-Rex Price: $34.49 Customer Review: ![]() If you ever wanted to know T. Rex's significance in the music world, look no further than this album. "The Slider" became Marc Bolan and his band T.Rex's calling card. This album when released in '72, sold amazingly well. The term T.Rexstacy was often used to describe the hysteria caused at a T.

Chicago IX - Greatest Hits by Chicago Customer Review: ![]() What a difference a couple of decades makes. At the time this first came out, Chicago was one of the biggest rock bands in the country. Every new album release was highly anticipated and important. 25 or 6 to 4, Make Me Smile, Saturday In The Park, etc were always on the radio. They were not liked... |

Live/For Earth Below by Robin Trower Price: $14.99 Customer Review: ![]() Having grown up in the same area as Robin Trower(South London. England) I was really lucky to see him perform several times, from his early days in Procul Harum, to his solo days in the mid -70s. He has always struck me as a modest chap who can blow most people clear off stage. His guitar work... |

Whiter Shade of Pale by Procol Harum Price: $11.99 Customer Review: ![]() You probably only know their two biggest hits-- A Whiter Shade of Pale and Conquistador. There was so much more to this ambitious, earthy and memorable band. Gary Brooker's soulful vocals managed to integrate R&B grit with touches of prog rock. A major if forgotten influence, Procol Harum's best... |
