Viva Italia! Festive Italian Classics
Great stuff! Regarding that sciocco from Milano, of course the music wouldn't mean much to him. Those of us whose roots sprang from Campania, Calabria and Sicila and took root in the United States over …

Fables of the Reconstruction
Having stood the test of time, this album deserves a resurrection. Later fans may not have heard this when it came out, and little of it has remained in many set-lists and radio playlists, it seems. The …

Great start all the way through "The One I Love." Then, boredom except for one of their loveliest, "King of Birds," with that raga-rock pattern echoing the, uh, Byrds. The beginning of the ablum, with …

Classic Club Mix: Dance Jams
This is good stuff - and of course it has the great "Justified and Ancient" with Tammy and the KLF. Good beat, good music, good stuff.

Mermaid Avenue
This is a really easy going album, great for a wet and cold afternoon with a roaring fire. "Way Over Yonder in the Minor Key" is the best track, but as a whole it's great. Woody's family can be assured …

One of These Nights
This one comes oh so close to that classic status. Maybe the fact that it is a little bit too commerical holds it back. Like one other reviewer already stated, the album oriented tracks(Hollywood Waltz, …

Timespace: Best of
This CD is filled with great classic songs from the Queen of Rock and Roll of the late 70's and early 80s. Stevie Nicks has always had a sexy voice. I love her duets on this CD with Tom Petty and Don …

Conversation Peace
I don't know what everyone's problem is with this CD. Its incorporates a good mix of old and new sounds and the result is a near masterpiece. Out of thirteen tracks only two or three rate as low as ordinary. …

Lucky Town
This CD may not have the classic material of Born To Run, Greetings, or E Street, but it sure beats the clunker Human Touch. The sounds were written from the heart and mind instead of merely meeting a …

River
This album is a mixed bag. There are some excellent songs like The River, Independence Day, Caddilac Ranch, The Price You Pay, and a few others. However, there is much filler on this double disc. It would …

Strong Persuader
Whereas this release is not quite a classic, the songs are very spunky. The lyrics stand out from the standard blues lines. The guitar style is quite fresh sounding. A nice blues/soul flavor with ten …

Reg Strikes Back
This disc has a few good songs here and there but overall there are too many synthesizers and a lack of decent hooks to listen to this one to regularly.

Down on the Farm
In spite of the band being in turmoil, I really like this CD. Maybe its not up to Dixie Chicken standard but its close to it for my ears. Wake Up Dreaming, Feel The Grove, Down On The Farm, Kokomo, and …

Representing the Mambo
Where this recording is not their best, the band explores some more interesting rhythms. Whether its the guitar driven Texas Twister, the jazzy interpretations of the title track and The Ingenue, or the …

Excellent from start to finish. Where can one start. Each song seems to have a very distinguishing quality: the strings on Why Judy Why, the soulful vocals on Tommorow Is Today, and the good time rhythm …

Lynyrd Skynyrd 1991
This reunited version of Lynyrd Skynyrd sounds too stale. Each song is delivered in the same angry tone and key. One guitar solo sounds like the rest. And the back up vocals by the new Honkettes are overutilized. …

Tattoo You
Too many tracks sound uninspired for this to be a top rate CD. No Use In Crying, Tops, Slave, and even Start Me Up sound like they were written in about five minutes tops. The best tracks are good but …

Don't get me wrong. This is not a bad recording by any means. Hot For Teacher, Jump, I'll Wait, Panama, and Top Jimmy are all very good songs. However five good songs do not a classic album make. The …

All the Young Dudes
Good straight ahead rock n roll that never got enough airplay. All The Young Dudes is the most recognizable number, but the original version of Ready For Love has some interesting textures. Jerkin Crocus …

This CD is just loaded with great songs. The elements of jazz and rock blend together perfectly. This is the one with Rikki Don't Lose That Number. Its the best song here but the others definitely are …

Boy I never thought I would see or hear the day when the Grateful Dead would record a symphony. The Terrapin Station Suite is very different from anything the Dead has done in the past. And its done quite …

Boy, some Dead Heads are a picky bunch. This CD is very solid from start to finish. Perfect no, but solid yes. I really like their version of Good Lovin' and each of the other songs explore some interesting …

I don't know what the other writer is talking about. The songs here are excellent. Especially noteworthy is the piano playing of Keith Godchaux. I don't understand why Keith's playing never got more notoriety …

I do not care for Led Zeppelin. Their style is a bit too bombastic for my tastes. Robert Plant's singing style is more annoying than pleasant. But in spite of Plant's scratchy screeching there some fresh …
