The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: It has been a looooong five or six months since I’ve last posted anything here, and I didn’t want all y’all to think that I’ve abandoned VAoT, so I decided I try to get some reviews in while I have the opportunity to sit down and actually...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Is it honestly necessary to write an intro to a Little Richard album? The coolest part, the label it’s on, was bought by K-Tel. So, the album opens with the song “Lucille” and Little Richard kicks it off with some wicked piano playing, and his his fantastic... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “Dig if u will the picture – of u and I engaged in a kiss. The sweat of your body covers me. Can u picture this, my darling? An ocean of violets engulf our persons. A bird screams. At 1st, I think it’s u and u thought it was me.... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Donna Summer had a few good hits back in her hay-day, she was kinda the Queen of Disco – then the 80’s came, she got all that bad publicity about some homophobic comments, but we’re not going to divulge into that. Anyways, here we go. The A-Side... 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: “SPECIAL THANKS TO: God and my mom and dad G. Louis. The Louis families and to those of you who co-operated in this realization. Love to my friends and to all of you everywhere.” Personal Review: So, the A-Side opens with the title track “A Love Affair” – it’s pretty... 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: To start let me say that I know very little about Dick Jensen, and that I had bought the album solely for the fact it’s signed and titled “The Giant of Hawaii” (Apparently 6ft is giant in Hawaii.) Anyways, Dick has some acting credits to his name,... Read More »

We are dedicated to one common cause – making the humanistic teachings of Jesus Christ part of our daily lives. Our inspiration is a lifestyle demonstrated by our pastor, James W. Jones. Join us as we sing, in the... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, Isaac Hayes. Shaft Theme. Oh baby. Bring… it… ON! For those of you who are too young to know who Isaac Hayes was, he was also the voice of Chef on “South Park” (but who cares about that?) Anyways, “Who’s the black private dick? SHAFT!... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “Elizabeth’s voice was coming to me in Nashville over the phone from Woodstock… Butter and The Nashville Pickers setting her off just right… Building the intensity, letting it fly high, bringing it down to reality… Then Elizabeth took over, making the song her own. Then is was dance time, rock... Read More »
