At Folsom Prison
(more) »rank: 157by: Johnny Cash
: essential recording:Johnny Cash had been breaking new ground for a decade when At Folsom Prison suddenly made the world at large take notice. The interaction of a volatile prison population starved for entertainment and a desperately on-form Johnny Cash was electrifying. His somber machismo finally found a home. The songs, which included every prison song Cash knew ('I Got Stripes,' 'The Wall,' '25 Minutes to Go,' 'Cocaine Blues,' plus his own 'Folsom Prison Blues') were tailored to galvanize the crowd. This set is all about atmosphere. Live ...

Alison Krauss & Union Station - Live
(more) »rank: 1277by: Alison Krauss & Union Station
: :This two-CD, 25-song set, recorded in Louisville on two nights in the spring of 2002, finds bluegrass's most celebrated crossover band at the top of its game. Krauss's warm, feathery vocals, capable of conveying complex emotions in a single note, appear more full-bodied than in studio recordings, yet lose none of their sensual appeal or dramatic tension. She's perfect, for example, as the melancholy temptress on 'Let Me Touch You for Awhile,' coming across as both savior and seductress, while Jerry Douglas's Dobro echoes the searing strains of ...

Live: Live Those Songs Again

: :Live country albums are relatively scarce these days, and that's regrettable. Granted, the studio is a remarkable place, yet there's something about a quality concert recording--the immediacy and raw interaction with the audience--that no studio effort can match. While most concert albums are recorded at one location, Kenny Chesney created this collection from tapes of five years of shows at various locales. The material reflects the past eight years of his career, including 'How Forever Feels' from 1998, 'She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy' from 1999, and 'What I ...

Viva Terlingua

: essential recording:It's no accident that among the great albums Jerry Jeff Walker has made, most of them have been recorded in front of a live audience. If you want to get the feel of the rowdy Texas music scene of the early to-mid-'70s, look no further than ¡Viva Terlingua!, a rowdy, goat-ropin' classic of sing-along mayhem recorded in the tiny town of Lukenbach in the summer of 1973. Walker marshals his Lost Gonzo Band through a number of tunes that went on to become classics, including Guy ...

Top of the World Tour

: :Recorded during their controversial 2003 tour, these two discs romp through an ample sampling of hits ('Wide Open Spaces,' 'There's Your Trouble,' 'Goodbye Earl,' 'Travelin' Soldier') as well as beloved album cuts ('Hello Mr. Heartache,' 'Some Days You Gotta Dance'). Twangy and cheeky all the way, the group rides an energy wave that continues through the stunning two-song encore of 'Top of the World' and 'Sin Wagon.' Yet as powerful as the full-band performances are, the trio's true essence emerges during the acoustic moments--'White Trash Wedding,' 'Ready to ...
