Ain't No Blues Like Alligator Blues.......2007-05-27

Let's face it folks, with a name like Alligator Records, they've got to be good. Two CDs exploding at the seams with blues in all of its incarnations. Real country folk blues, Cephas & Wiggins, rip-it-up bayou blues, C.J. Chenier and the Red Hot Louisiana Band, wailing harp Chicago South Side blues, James Cotton, misbehavin' mama blues, Koko Taylor, guitar god blues, Roy Buchanan, thinly veiled sexual reference blues, David Hole, and whole lot more besides. 38 tracks in all, and you probably won't care for one or two of them - but whatever your 10 favorites end up being, they will surely justify the low cost of this anthology.

I've been listening to blues for quite some time, since the days of the Taft administration actually. Even so, a couple of these names were new to me. More to the point, it's a treat having so many outstanding real blues artists (not to be confused with three-chord cheezers who just wandered back from the mall) playing unadulterated blues.

For neophytes this anthology is really a blessing because it serves as an inexpensive, convenient introduction to the blues. Follow any of the artists here down the rabbit hole and you'll enter a whole world of blues. Johnny Winter would be a good place to start, especially because he bridged blues and rock. But purists may be intrigued by Professor Longhair, who would then lead you to Dr. John, etc. Koko Taylor is a world unto herself, man; you better nail down everything in the house before you turn her on because she can blow the spots off a leopard.

The folks at Alligator Records can be relied upon to treat America's indigenous music with respect and love. It's an uphill battle, and nobody's getting rich in the process. They've labored to make this music accessible to the public, and frankly, simply documenting it is an important service. Blues musicians don't have "hits," so there's never much grease to spread around, even when times are good. The music survives because it's raw, it's real, and it satisfies in a way that processed music from the factory can't. I'm not saying you should buy this as a public service, that would be too grandiose. However, I think that when you do buy it, the rich authenticity will hook you immediately. Trust your gator.

Gator Blues.......2007-02-06

Alligator Records records the majority of today's blues artists and this album is a collection of some of the best. I recommend it to anyone who loves blues music

A great collection..........2003-08-07

...with plenty of variety.

The 2-CD set will keep you busy listening and studying for hours.

Probably one of the better blues record companies takes at least one track from their most successful albums ( and some unreleased ), and puts it into a collection every five years or so.

Highly recommended.

My fav. track: "T'ain't Nobody's Business"

fantastic compilation!.......2002-06-28

If you love the blues (and who doesn't, except for those terminally 'mad-at-the-world' types of which I hope you're not one) then this great collection of various flavors of blues is for you! Once again, Alligator Records has put together an irresistable smorgasbord of sound for your listening pleasure. C'mon, dig in! (Just keep in mind that the audio tracks for DISC I vs. DISC II are swapped on the song samples here.)

Bring on the Dog!.......2002-03-26

I bought this just for the unreleased Houndog Taylor tracks. The rest is very good.

Disney on Acid!.......2007-02-04

what a delight! over 40 little snippets of Residential atonal ditties! Each one with the carnival like weird space cadet like ditties of ear candy! Each is one minute long, all the "fat" has been cut from each one.

Never boring, cause each piece is completely different from the other! Except for the Pee Wee herman quality of each, these toe tappers are not to be played to a date, she or he will forever think you are weird after hearing these!

SO WHAT?!

Join the United Mutations! Baptize thyself in the world of our eyeball buddies!

And if you like these, be sure to get the DVD- Resident's Commercial DVD! SEE interpretations of these ditties by spacy artists, and get on a "Natural Fry!"

More proof why the Residents are pioneers, not just wack jobs.......2006-11-04

Many listeners got their first taste of the Residents on the "Dr. Demento" radio program back in late 1979 or 1980. The song was "The Laughing Song" and I never forgot how wonderfully bizarre it was.
Louisiana swamp rats who relocated to San Francisco (a good choice, given the musical tolerance the Bay Area has boasted over the years) and created a stir with never revealing their identities and making head size eyeballs famous, the Residents specialized in proto-synth programming that predated Devo and just about every cutting edge artist, with the possible exception of Can, the German experimental legends. While comedy is the main focal point of these twisted genius' work, they also experiment with sounds and textures never before attempted or replicated. In fact, "Eskimo", their biggest selling album, is somewhat serious, a five part soundscape that defies description in print.
For those not quite ready to take the plunge with "Eskimo", "The Commercial Album" is a good starting point as each selection is exactly one minute long, making up forty snippets of amazing hooks, noises, and even the occasional pretty tune. Fans of electronic music like NIN, meet your roots. Reznor could never have created his work without these pioneers. As so often is the case, some of the world's most obscure artists also act as the most influential. Laugh along, but don't forget the new ground that is constantly being broken as you listen to "The Commercial Album". Also, pick up "Duck Stab/Buster & Glen", the other Residents' masterwork.

The Residents rule!.......2006-09-27

If you enjoy weird and crazy synth. sounds and quick commercial style pop songs encapsuled in 1 minute, than this album is definitely for you. The songs are very enjoyable and come in quick succession and before you know it you have listened to the whole cd.
From a documentary I saw on the Residents, which was hosted by Penn and Teller from 1990, this album was created to show how a pop song is really akin to a commercial jingle; having a couple of versus and than a chorus or refrain and just repeated several times within the 1 minute span. Suprisingly this is tame from their other material which at times can sound punk to a person whose never heard of them. In my opinion, their one of the greatest performance artists that came out of the 70's. Their music at times sounds destructured or disjointed or even chaotic. There are music videos to several of these tracks that are very enjoyable.

encyclopedia of popular music- of another planet.......2006-04-04

I think of this album alongside the Clash's "Sandinista!"- Like that sprawling Clash album, the Residents have absorbed a bewildering array of music forms. But whereas the Clash celebrates those forms more or less intact, the Residents completely deconstruct them. Nothing is recognizable. Yet, the rudiments of music form and structure are here: melody, rhythm, texture. They also perform a experiment on this album that is time-honored in the annals of pop music: just how far can you strip a song down and retain its essence? Every one of the forty songs here are completely idiosyncratic and recognizable, yet pared down so far they could almost be considered snippets if they didn't lack recognizable structure (which they have).

Ok, sounds pretty freaky. But really, I think this is one of the Residents most accessible albums. For one thing, their strange ideas are delivered in compact units. For another, conventional structure dominates. Verse-chorus-verse. Compared to the Commercial album, Eskimo is a terrifying exercise in formlessness. So some might enjoy this as a "gateway" album to the truly deep weirdness of their other albums.

I first bought this album when I was in high school. Zappa's Freak Out and Uncle Meat were already in my collection, so this album has never seemed all that ominous. It even seems quaint and- dare I say it- cute at times. If you have been there, done that, you make think the same. If not, this album would be a great introduction to a pretty interesting corner of the popular music landscape.

Ingenious idea.......2006-01-01

Take the concept of TV commercials and how we define pop music as " commercial " and marry the two of them together. It's a very shrewd idea, even ballsy. Is it any good though? Surprisingly so. The songs or, since we're talking of The Commercial Album, commercials barely last a minute long, a near ideal length for a commercial. But if you want to take it in a pop context the songs are not long enough to guarantee memorability. But that is only on first listen. They can be extremely memorable. Like my father used to say " Short. Sharp. Concise. And to the point." This is what this album is. It displays some cutting ideas on love and life which can be thought provoking. Take Love Is for example, the lyrics to which are;

"Love is only loneliness divided by another
Love is only living for the lonely
Love is only loneliness divided by another
And I know that life is lonely"

Some may find that stupid but I think it's a pretty interesting thought and indeed it could be more truthful then anyone of us will care to admit.

However, this album is worthwhile if you want to see these eyeballed men work at their most shrewdly inspired. Now I'd like to see how those video commercials worked on that DVD.......

Retrospective.......2005-04-29

This collection of four CDs originally released on April 20, 1993, is unusual and likely a valuable addition to a Tull fan's collection. Casual fans will likely find this collection to be unnecessary. The four CDs include re-recorded tracks as well as live tracks and a collection of roughly the first decade and a half of Tull.

The first CD is titled "Remixed Classic Songs." The CD covers the era from 1968's "This Was" to 1982's "The Broadsword and the Beast." The songs covered in this CD document much of Jethro Tull's commercial success as well as those songs that many consider to be classic Tull. These songs have been collected elsewhere in their original versions more than once, and thus this CD would only be for someone wanting to collect everything Tull.

The second CD is titled "Carnegie Hall, N.Y Recorded Live New York City 1970." I realize there is no period after the "N.Y," but that is the way my cover appears. It is possible that the lack of a period was corrected on some versions. This CD is what it says, Tull at Carnegie Hall. The music from this CD was collected during a November concert in 1970. Only one song from this CD overlaps the first CD, "Song for Jeffrey." Of course, live versions from Tull are generally different from studio versions, and the single song overlap means that this CD provides different scope from the first CD. Obviously the music on this CD is very early Tull, covering the short period of their existence from their first album release in 1968 to 1970.

The third CD contains re-recordings of a variety of music, principally at Beacon's Bottom in November, 1992, but also music recorded at three other locations in December, 1992. The locations listed are "Ian's," "Woodworms Recording Studio," and "Presshouse Studio." There is much more overlap of the music on this CD with the music from the earlier two CDs. However, the style of the songs from the earlier studio releases is frequently different. I consider this CD the gem of this collection as the general style of the music is closer to rock, and often harder rock, than the original recordings. I believe this one CD is the must have CD for fans of Tull, with the exception of casual fans. The one interesting thing is that this CD remains heavily weighted to their early (pre-1982) music.

The fourth CD is live recordings from 1969 to 1992, at various locations around the world. As with the other CDs, the variations on this CD are valuable to a hardcore Tull fan, particularly as the variations in some cases are very good. As an example, the "Passion Play Extract" from a 1975 Paris concert is a bit different from the studio version, and contains a slightly harder edge to it than the studio recording. Another excellent track is a medley, "Wind-Up/Locomotive Breath/Land of Hope and Glory." While this CD does include some repeats of songs that are included on other CDs in this collection, there are a number of lesser-known works that are well done and enjoyable. One such work is the nearly 11 minute long song "Budapest," which is somewhat devoid of catchy hooks, and yet is interesting to hear and analyze; music for people who like it as an art.

If you have an extensive collection of Tull music, then this four disc, fifty-six track, collection is optional. If you consider yourself a big fan and you have to have their best works, then there is enough difference in this collection to make it valuable. If you are looking for an overview of Tull up to 1992, this collection is excellent. If you are a casual fan, well, you are probably not reading this review if you are a casual fan.

25 years later ToTo is still explosive.......2006-01-21

I've been a ToTo fan since their inception in 1977. I was fortunate enough to see and hear them live in New Orleans during the 1985 Isolation Tour. After watching this live video and listening to the live cd I can see and hear the energy level in their music like it was still 1977. This is a powerful live performance that will leave you with a greater respect for their musical ability. These guys are some of the most respected players in the music industry and have been for a few decades. It's nice knowing that they are still performing and influencing the younger generation of apprentice musicians.

FANTASTIC!!!.......2005-08-31

This is an AWESOME album and DVD!!! I don't know what happened to Mr. Christopher who just gave one star to this album, but this CD is just amazing. 25 years!! WOW!!! And still with the same finesse and musical touch that has characterized Toto through the years!! Lukather? Amazing! Paich? Superb!! Porcaro!! Groovy!! Spinner? Fabulous!! Kimball? Incredible!! The medleys are just fabulous!!! If you like Toto, or music in general PLEASE, DO BUY THIS ALBUM!!!

Embarassed.......2005-03-01

WOW! I like Toto but the vocals (specifically the lead singer) on this CD are enough to drive a man to drink. Too bad because all other aspects of the recording are pretty good? You just can't around that guys wailing ... it's embarassing? EH GADS!

Just for Fans.......2004-12-09

Hey Guys, Really great musicians, Of course they need a new vocalist to continue in this century. This album is only for fans who could help the band with the lyrics. Please buy the first live album instead or the DVD.

good to be 'Live'.......2004-03-29

I hve all toto's cd's, seen them 2 times, and I'm from ct, where
the 3 brothers are from . This is a good live cd, the songs sound
crisp,clean,and yet raw , meaning theres a little edge to them but not to the point where your not listening to a toto cd, meaning the sound is great which you get when you listen to a toto cd. When I go to a concert I want the songs and sound to sound just like the cd I bought and when you see toto in concet thats just what you get. I liked the arrangements on the songs
the vocals were good but his voice sounded a little weak on a couple songs but I know he has a great singing voice . The playing is outstanding of course and this is a good cd if your a
toto fan, or just a music fan

Interesting but flawed package.......2001-04-02

This interview CD and booklet includes a few interesting and less-known tidbits on the band (i.e. Gene Simmons received an A- on a college term paper entitled "The Social Significance of the Panographic Art Form")and a nice interview clip with Eric Carr. A lot of little annoyances, however, hurt my grade for this package. The British narrator and interviewers do not seem to have a lot of knowledge of the band (the narrator continually pronounces Ace's name "Freely" and one interviewer asked "Was Ace your first guitarist?"). Many of the interviews do not fit with the chronology of the narration. At one point, for example, the narrator discusses Destroyer and the interviews which follow were on the Crazy Nights LP (a jump of over ten years!).

One amusing part of the interview clips is Gene Simmons contradicting himself on KISS makeup issue. In one interview he states KISS will never take the makeup off because that was what makes KISS unique. In a later interview, Simmons states that "nothing is unique. Certainly there were people before us who wore makeup" and that it was easier to take the makeup off and become "main stream."

The booklet also has some interesting tidbits and nice photos which makes this CD more attractive but what bothers me to no end is that so many of the photos are printed backwards! Even the cover photo is backwards (you'll notice that Paul Stanley's star is on his left eye). All the photos are from KISS's heyday. There are no photos of later KISS members and no rare early shots. Also, Peter Criss is not as well respresented in terms of photos as the other members. He is also not on the interview CD at all!

The one good point about this package is its reasonable price. If you are just getting into KISS and want to learn about the band, I recommend this CD. If you're a longtime fan or if you already have a lot of KISS stuff, you may want to pass on this one.

This 'Unauthorized Biography' is just a rehash of the 'Authorized Interviews' of KISS that have been around for the last 25 years with NO new insights or information at all. Only for the hard-core 'must have everything' KISS fan. All others can pass on it.

KISS has never had a bad album or CD yet. I have been a fan of theres for over 25 years and they are still and always will be the hottest band in the world.
