Roger Waters' first solo record, creatively: deep, oblique, at times. Good songs! "Every Stranger's Eyes" best recommendation! Old mix, low on modern stereo or CD player. Best to purchase new remastered version.

Hardcore Punk Compilation...
on July 7, 2016
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
TSOL, standing for True Sounds of Liberty have their early material compiled on this "Best Of" CD. Not bad for the initiate, however, nothing more than a CD re-release of the "Sounds of Yesterday" compilation released in the late '80s.

Pink Floyd's pre-'Wall' record.
on June 22, 2016
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
A hugely underrated masterpiece! Semi-short, to the point, and some of the best musicianship the Floyd had displayed in years. Set the stage for bands such as Flaming Lips, Mastadon, etc.

Cheap Trick "Greatest" for new fans...
on June 8, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
...Re-hash of the same old thing for the informed. While covering all of the standards, for this underrated rock group, this latest round of Hits collection offers nothing new. Recommended for those not familiar with this band!

Excellent overview of Stones early Song.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good news: Fine selection of standard songs by the legendary rock 'n' roll band. Bad news: Not enough 'deep cuts', songs that are lesser known and deserve notice.

Indie-rock icon receives well-deserned exposure.
on December 7, 2015
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
"The Devil and Daniel Johnston" is an astute, objective account of the life (so far) of Daniel Johnston, an influence for artists such as Kurt Cobain, Jad Fair, and Sonic Youth, among several others. Engrossing and eloquent, the film also exposes the viewer to Johnston's music as it should be: In the course of revealing this brilliant, troubled man's life.

![The Who by Numbers [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/3027/3027085_sa.jpg)
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
'Who By Numbers', one of the lesser known releases by the '60s rock bands is one of the best and most spontaneous. Streamlined arrangements for songs that sound spontaneous and effortless. While the band (half of who are still alive) have seen better days, "By Numbers' reveals a more pensive side.

"Covers" album where not much is covered.
on September 23, 2015
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
"Spaghetti Incident" is a loose-knit collection of covers by famed '80s rock band Guns 'N' Roses, while some covers, including "You Can't Throw Your Arms Around a Memory", "Black Leather", and "Hair of the Dog", point to the band's legitimate take on 70s rock influences, other songs seem to be done as a form of self-gratification. Not bad, but, not essential.

![Violator [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/0382/0382598_sa.jpg)
Posted by: Vickers
Verified Purchase:Yes
"Violator" is considered the last record where "electronic/new wave" group Depeche Mode had limited, cult appeal, only. Having achieved hit singles in "People Are People" and "Everything Counts", the band were reaching for, and found, popular acclaim to match their critical status. With this album, Depeche Mode became a "rock band", and not just an 'experimental pop group' with a gimmick, and a look.
