The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “Don’t blame it on me… And… “Just like the white white winged dove”. This music is dedicated to Robin – for her brave, wild heart And to the gypsies – that remain…” Personal Review: Everyone knows Stevie Nicks for her contribution to Fleetwood Mac and music in general, this is...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “* At the top of a massive winding staircase a man paused. He looked upwards allowing the depths of his wearied eyes to explore the dome of the high ceiling, resting finally on its center. The mural painting which long had been covered with white paint, was now faintly exposed,... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Firstly, can we talk about how lost Gene and Lex look on the back cover? Or how Wally looks like Steven Tyler with no make-up on? I’m not even sure about the cover. Anywho, the album opens with the track “Miles Away” and you know what? It... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, back in the late 80’s, Jon Cryer (Alan Harper from “Two and a Half Men“) was coming off a series of film roles, “Pretty in Pink” and “Superman IV: The Quest for Peace” (to name a few.) when he starred in the movie “Hiding Out” where...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “The ROLLING STONES are more than just a group – they are a way of life. A way of life that has captured the imagination of England’s teenagers, and made them one of the most sought after groups in Beatdom. For the Stones have their fingers on the pulse of... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Janis Joplin is one of the many artists I grew up listening to on a daily basis, and one of the many reasons of my eclectic music tastes. The album opens with Janis singing “Move Over” which is one of Janis’ finest hits. The musicianship, the vocals,... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “Sweeping, overwhelming – like a torrential river pouring down a mountainside – that was the effect of the first revelation of José Feliciano’s unbelievably broad-ranging talents on his debut album The Voice and Guitar of José Feliciano (LPM/LSP-3358). Now that turbulent torrent of talent has been channeled, aimed, concentrated. All of José Feliciano’s... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Gatefold: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I know the Edgar Winter Group was like a huge thing in the 70’s, not just for the fact Edgar is an albino – but they had a lot of good tracks. The album opens with “Hangin’ Around” – and hey, it’s not so bad!... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, Roger Daltrey is the lead singer of the Who. He also did this wonderful album. Which has the weirdest cover art. He was also kind of beautiful when he was young. The album opens with the track “Come and Get Your Love” – and it kind... Read More »
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 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 »
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 »
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)...
