Good Kim Simmonds album
on April 25, 2018
Posted by: jackel88
from Fishers, IN
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a good effort by Kim Simmonds and Savoy Brown. The recording is very up front like in a small club, which to me sounds great. The vocals are handled by Kim now and there is a resemblance to Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits which can be good or bad depending on your taste. However, the guitar playing by Kim is always worth the price of the disc.

Some classic Maynard
on April 9, 2018
Posted by: jackel88
from Fishers, IN
Verified Purchase:Yes
This release focuses on the 70s recordings that were a mix of big band versions of film and TV themes, disco-type classical and some well performed jazz. Maynard is still solid, even if he is showboating at times. He always is amazing when the music calls for his stratospheric ability!

Great early Zappa release!
on December 8, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great early Zappa release with some irreverent lyrics and stellar musicianship. This is full of Zappa's great delivery of twisted lyrics. He has horns on this one, also. "I'm The Slime", "Dirty Love", and "Zomby Woof". really cook!

Excellent Zappa release!
on December 8, 2017
Posted by: jackel88
from Fishers, IN
Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent Zappa release with some stellar performances by George Duke on keyboards and vocals. Frank Zappa is in great form on vocals and guitar. The track "Inca Roads" is worth the price of the disc for it's complex and original playing. Johnny "Guitar" Watson also makes and appearance. This is not your stock radio play music. It's way ahead of it's time.

This is a varied album with mixed results, but the live extras are terrific! Some are better than the studio versions.

A solid rock album
on April 19, 2017
Posted by: jackel88
from Fishers, IN
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a solid rock album by Steve Walsh. His voice is a little raspier than his early Kansas days, but he does a great job as always. It is more a rock album than a Kansas clone.

Well above average first album

Verified Purchase:Yes
I owned this album when it first came out and getting the new remastered version was a great find. The album was an amazing start for a great power trio. The band showed well above average prowess on their respective instruments and in their writing.

Very nice packaging and great extras

Verified Purchase:Yes
This edition of the Black Sabbath first album is really put together well. The remaster is a little dark sounding on this one, but it fits well. The packaging is really nice and the bonus disc has some cool alternate versions of the album tracks also.

This children's Christmas collection is loaded with almost all of the songs that kids really enjoy. It also gets parents reacquainted with songs they knew when they were children. A fun release.
