Greatest Hits

Sorry, but the remastering on this CD is awful. All of the previous Who collection sound better, especially “Then and Now.” Skip this.

Review of Green River

Green River

On their third album, Creedence Clearwater Revival finally got rid of the sometimes directionless five-minute jams that weighed down their first two records.
“Green River” is probably their tightest album, and their best as well. There is virtually no filler here – the singles are magnificent, and even the album tracks are great.It opens with the [...]

Bella Donna

Throughout the 1970s Stevie Nicks was among the “golden line up” of the legendary Fleetwood Mac, and her lyrics and vocals did much to fuel the band’s remarkable success on such releases as RUMORS.Still, when Nicks announced that she was going solo, there were naysayers aplenty.Many felt that Nicks’ success with Fleetwood Mac rested in [...]

…and I mean that title in the BEST possible way.This is an epic record for anyone that appreciated the intensity and simplicity of Arena Rock in the 80’s.The bonus DVD included in one of the Limited Editions includes a behind the scenes, “making of” this album in which they talk about their influences: Motley Crue, [...]

Best Of (Chapter One 1997-2004) [Explicit]

Well, here it is. A bit premature, but Sevendust are releasing their first “Greatest Hits” collection just eight years after releasing their excellent self-titled debut album. But here’s the catch: This collection is being put out by TVT, the record company that Sevendust used to call home, until they switched to the Universal imprint, Winedark, [...]

In A Different Light

I’ve been a huge everclear fan for a long time – since their second album, Sparkle and Fade.I can’t tell you how disappointed I am with this album.None of the remastered songs are “better” than the original versions.They’re all slower, more produced, and sappier.I didn’t think it was possible for everclear to screw up a [...]
