Seattle scene band does not sound dated...
on May 22, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
"8-Way Santa" by Seattle band Tad still sound heavy, weird, psychedelic, and the standard most independent rock bands should defer to for
clarity of sound and persistence of vision. 'Jinx' and 'Jack' are album highlights.

The Best Rap Record Since...
on May 15, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
Public Enemy's "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back". Unpredictable, to say the least! Avoiding well-worn cliches from hip hop, gangsta rap, as well as utilizing modern ideas and understandings. The group to watch for in 2018!

LPs are back, and Prince has proved it...
on April 10, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
Incredible package. "Loutsflo3er" seems to be the more interesting of the two albums offered in this set, even though "MPLSound" does have a fine moments. Prince covers "Crimson and Clover" and "Wild Thing" in one unexpected medley.

One of Steve Winwood's best...
on March 28, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
Traffic's album "The Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys" proves why the idea of a 'supergroup' works, when it works well! At times deep, well-done, yet, with a casual attitude that oftentimes serves some of the weightier songs, while not detracting from the albums's overall pre-glam rock strut.

Last album from Velvet Revolver...
on March 4, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
...and the last from Scott Weiland. Solid work from a band just coming into it's own. For Guns 'N Roses fans, a reminder that a reunion wasn't necessary, for fans of Stone Temple Pilots, a reminder that Weiland's input into the 90s rock stalwarts was more crucial than many have speculated.

New Residents...
on February 16, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
...An album for those that remember this band! Starting off as a quirky, oblique, and obscure "post-punk" act the Residents have successfully morphed into a professional-sounding, yet, still bizarre art-rock act that has managed to carve (sic) it's own niche in the fringe-music hall of fame. Remember the Theory of Obscurity?

Early Sonic Youth "EVOL"
on February 13, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the band's early releases (from SST years), which definitely showcased the band's style, at the time, while charting the creative direction for the future. Not quite the "Rosetta Stone" of Sonic Youth's catalogue, but, an early translator.

Old school Hip-hop...
on February 6, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
From Public Enemy, always reliable. First, underrated album worth a listen, if not, required! Not too long, not too deep, always good for just about any occasion!

Quite the 'Curio', the Residents' "Eskimo"...
on February 6, 2017
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Residents give a new meaning to the word "cult band", by, not only, not revealing their identities, but, by utilizing their Theory of Obscurity as a form of "cult thinking" as performance art. "Eskimo" is a tough album absorb for even long-time fans, much less new entrants into their fascinating take on music!

Not Frank Zappa's Best...
on September 17, 2016
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
...But a new stage in his career. Live "Billy the Mountain" is a classic, the rest of the record, a bit hodgepodge (and sexist, depending on your disposition), marked a new stage in Zappa's career.
