Furr – “Furr”

Furr – “Furr”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, Furr is basically a cheap Kiss rip-off. The album opens with the track “Sorcery” – and well, the vocals are okay, the guy kind of can’t sing very well. Then again, my copy is slightly dished, so it plays a little wobbly at first, but the... Read More »

The Models – “Models”

The Models – “Models”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I know nothing about this band, except their Canadian, from Edmonton Alberta and that like, there’s a wet girl on the cover. So, the album immediately opens with “Did It Well” – which, may I say has some pretty great musicianship, and like the lyrics are pretty... Read More »

Each group has proven themselves to be... Read More »

Bee Gees – “Cucumber Castle”

Bee Gees – “Cucumber Castle”The Sleeve: The Gatefold: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I like the cover. I like the Bee Gees. “If Only I Had My Mind on Something Else” opens the album, and it’s not a bad track. It’s pretty good, the vocals are pretty strong, who knew that this album would open the world of... Read More »

The Blind Slye Twins – “It’s Me Again Lord”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “Singing plays a big part in Evangelism – in attracting people – in setting the mood and pace of every Service – In preparing men`s hearts to a decision of Christ – in stirring people to climb to new heights of service.

Donovan – “Donovan’s Greatest Hits”

Donovan – “Donovan’s Greatest Hits”The Sleeve: The Gatefold: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, this is like 60’s psychedelic folk. Donovan’s greatest hits. The A-Side opens with the track “Epistle to Dippy” – which is a pretty good track, the musicianship is pretty good and it’s not really an album I could complain about, Donovan is pretty good....

John Arpin – “Direct-to-Disc”

John Arpin – “Direct-to-Disc”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “This direct-to-disc recording features the talented Canadian pianist, John Arpin in a performance of popular favourites.

The Boomtown Rats – “In the Long Grass”

The Boomtown Rats – “In the Long Grass”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Bob Geldof is genius. Enough said. The album opens with the track “A Hold of Me” – which is an amazing track and you could solely base a whole album off of it. The Rats definitely have the chemistry together that not a lot of musicians can... Read More »

GG Allin – “Always Was, Is and Always Shall Be”

GG Allin – “Always Was, Is and Always Shall Be”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: For those that don’t know GG Allin, here is a brief history. He was born ‘Jesus Christ Allin’ – was a very angry young man, got into music, and was known for throwing his own feces and vomit at his audience, as well as assaulting them, oh,... Read More »

David Bowie – “Pin-Ups”

David Bowie – “Pin-Ups”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “These songs are among my favourites from the ’64-67′ period of London.  Most of the groups were playing the Ricky-Tak (was it a ‘y’ or an ‘i’?) – scene club circuit.  (Marquee, eel pie island la-la)  Some are still with us.  Pretty Things 1 (1) 3 (2) Them 2 (1)...

Elizabeth Barraclough – “Hi!”The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, this is Elizabeth Barraclough’s second album, (the first being her self-titled debut album!
