Faith No More - Angel Dust Bought this cd because I liked the 2 hits ( A small victory, Mid Life Crisis) The rest of the cd is decent, but nothing special. Was good work-out music this morning.
Linda Ronstadt - Greatest Hits Vol. II One great cover song after another. It's so easy, Hurts so bad, Ooh baby baby, Poor, poor pitiful me, How do I make you. Linda could definitely belt it out. read that she has been suffering from pakinsons for some time now and can't sing. What a shame.
Family Force 5 - Dance or Die Faith, Family, and Fun music. High energy Christian Rock, Funk, Dance music from the Family. Radiator, Dance or die, How in the world, The first time.
Rush - 2112 The album that put these guys on the map. This and Moving Pictures are by far their best, although I love all Rush music. Includes the futuristic story of side 1 and some great songs on side 2. Passage to Bangkok, the twilight zone, Something for nothing, Lessons.
One of my favorite bands just came out with a new single and amazing video! This is how music videos used to be made.
Aerosmith - Done With Mirrors. This 1985 release is sandwiched in between the first 5 classic Aerosmith albums and the MTV era music. This CD features the original members after a short 2 album hiatus by Joe Perry and Brad Whitford. The sound is much closer to the classic Blues-tinged edgier rock of the first albums which is why I like it. Let the music do the talking, Shame on you, Shela, Darkness.
Perry Farrell - Rev Career spanning collection from his solo, Jane's Addiction, and Porno For Pyro's days. Jane says, Been caught stealing, Pets, Tahitian moon, mountain song.
Diana Ross - The Definitive collection 20 hits spanning the career of this legendary singer. Lady D would have to be on anyone's top 5 list of all time great female vocalists. Love hangover, Touch me in the morning, Missing you, My mistake (with Marvin Gaye), Do you know where you're going to, Endless love(with Lionel Ritchie)
Tangerine dream- Quantum gate I only recently discovered this band, I didn't realise they had been going since 1972!
Rush-A Farewell To Kings Awesome follow-up to 2112. Continuing to use the Synth-based sound that made them popular on 2112, Rush creates another masterpiece. Xanadu, Closer to the heart, Cinderella man, Cygnus x-1. The period of 2112-Moving Pictures was definitely my fave era of Rush.
Roxy Music - Avalon Not sure what Genre I would place these guys into...but this is a damn good Cd. One of my fave's. More than this, Avalon, True to life, The space between.
Devon Allman - Turquoise Solo debut by eldest son of legendary Gregg Allman. While you can her some of Gregg's voice and stylings here, it's all Devon on this great release. Don't set me free, Time machine, There's no time, Into the darkness.
On your recommendation I pulled it up on YouTube, and listened to about half of the album while I was working. It's not bad.
Rush - Hemispheres Another masterpiece by a band that made a few. The third of a trio(including 2112, and a farewell to kings) that I always group together...songs (suites) that take an entire album side, futuristic story's and use of keyboards. The message of the side 1 title track is very thoughtful, as is all neil pearts works. A trio of great songs on side 2..The trees, Circumstances, and the amazing instrumental La Villa Strangiato
