Heavy Horses(more) »rank: 4092by: Jethro Tull
:Album Description:Digitally remastered reissue of 1978 album includes 2 bonus tracks 'Living In These Hard Times' (taken from the album 20 Years Of Jethro Tull - recorded at Maison Rouge 1978) & 'Broadford Bazaar' (taken from the album Nightcap Unreleased Masters). 11 tracks & liner notes written by Ian Anderson. Chrysalis. 2003. :Like 1977's Songs from the Wood, Heavy Horses is often unfairly posited as the thematic follow-up to its aforementioned studio predecessor. While Songs from the Wood evokes a magical atmosphere, Heavy Horses is far more earthly. Indeed, on the nine-minute-long title-track--a most poetic ode to the England's plough horses--Ian Anderson sings ... |

Avalon(more) »rank: 4729by: Roxy Music
: : Roxy Music Photos More from Roxy Music Country Life The Best of Roxy Music For Your Pleasure Roxy Music Stranded Siren Amazon.com essential recording:Hipper students of 1980s pop might pretend that Joy Division and the Smiths had a monopoly on melancholia, but for the older, more suave brooders, nothing could match the stylized desolation of Roxy Music's last album. Avalon was recorded in the wake of the band's hit version of John Lennon's 'Jealous Guy.' Although that song isn't on Avalon, its tortured shadow looms large over 'While My Heart Is Still Beating,' the title track, and the ... |

Yessongs(more) »rank: 5930by: Yes
: :No Description AvailableNo Track Information AvailableMedia Type: CDArtist: YESTitle: YESSONGSStreet Release Date: 09/20/1994DomesticGenre: ROCK/POP essential recording:Opening with a few bars of Stravinsky to set the adoring crowd on its feet, this once-three-LP set is Yes at their finest. This was, after all, probably the most mainstream act that had even provisional 'prog rock' status, and their tunes show it. While 'Heart of the Sunrise' may be one of the more modestly titled Yes songs (compare it with 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII' or 'The Fish (Schindleria Praematurus)' or even 'Total Mass Retain'), it also bears marks of the band playing ... |

Includes: * 2 Hybrid SACDs - The original double album remixed in stereo and multi-channel 5.1 surround sound from the original 48 track master tapes by Jeff Wayne. * Expanded 48 page full color booklet with new artwork, sleeve notes and content :In hindsight, it seems almost incredible: 27 years ago, a young musician named Jeff Wayne (who at the time primarily wrote music for commercials) fell in love with H.G. Wells' much-loved book The War of the Worlds, and decided to make a musical version of it. Star Wars had just put ... |

Colma(more) »rank: 4090by: Buckethead
: :On his third solo album, Colma, Buckethead has refined his fluid, impressively articulate guitar style, exacting a precise and occasionally jazzy tone from his instrument. Encompassing a tremendous range in both tempo and expression, Buckethead is an ideal guitar hero for the year 2000. Melodic, psychotic, and with loads of flash, he has all the burning technique of folks like Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, but remains steadfastly oblivious to any real commercial considerations. Accompanied by bassist Bill Laswell, drummer Brain (Primus), DJ Disc, and cellist Terry Untalan, Buckethead embraces a plaintive, near-ambient sound structure while occasionally unleashing torrid spasms and blinding guitar ... |

Presto(more) »rank: 3666by: Rush
: :A Rush album based on groove? Strangely enough yes, and what's even more astonishing is how well it works. Rush have always been known more for technical flash than for straight-ahead rock, but Presto achieves a synthesis of the two that's accessible without compromising. It's strong lyrically, without the heavy-handed symbolism that makes, for instance, 'Trees' so difficult to listen to, and the band often gets into a rhythmic groove that's positively infectious; check out 'Scars' or 'Superconductor.' Presto is also the first Rush album where the incorporation of electronics and synthesizers truly works, instead of sounding like an additional layer artificially added ... |

Low(more) »rank: 8179by: David Bowie
: :Always up for messing with the formal expectations of rock, Bowie teamed up with Brian Eno for three frustrating but compelling albums, starting with Low. Treated instruments are claustrophobically crowded together, and Bowie's voice leaps in and out of the mix seemingly at will. Where it seems like it might show up, it's replaced by wailing synths or nothing at all, and it vanishes altogether from most of the second half-- a series of long, menacing, barely mobile synth explorations. To prove that they could make pop out of these herky-jerky mix tricks, they pull off 'Sound And Vision' in the middle of ... |
