System of a Down(more) »rank: 1236by: System of a Down
: :This debut by the L.A.-based quartet is a hybrid of explosive rap-metal, politically incendiary lyrics, and wide-ranging cultural influences. The members are of Armenian descent, but their diverse stylistic background transcends easy cultural labeling. Singer Serj Tankian's throaty roar competes with any mosh-pit rocker around, but his real trademark is his emotional wail and refreshingly melodic singing, especially on songs such as 'Spiders' and the condemnatory 'P.L.U.C.K.' Guitarist Daron Malakian, bassist Shavo Odadjian, and drummer John Dolmayan lock in tight on the capricious arrangements of 'Know,' 'Ddevil,' and 'CUBErt.' Their musical diversity runs wonderfully wild on 'Sugar' and 'Suggestions' with dizzying shifts of ... |

Janis Joplin - Greatest Hits(more) »rank: 905by: Janis Joplin
: essential recording:More than Cheap Thrills or even Pearl, Greatest Hits has helped keep Janis Joplin's short-lived recording career alive for listeners who came along after her 1970 death. 'Me and Bobby McGee' is the biggest draw, of course--it was a posthumous No. 1 single--but the rest is equally exciting. Despite the familiarity of the titles here, this goes far beyond the merely serviceable. Finally, the cover photo of Janis smiling in a sunny park is as poignant a shot of her as exists. --Rickey Wright |

Complete Studio Recordings(more) »rank: 624by: Led Zeppelin
: :No Description AvailableNo Track Information AvailableMedia Type: CDArtist: LED ZEPPELINTitle: COMPLETE STUDIO RECORDINGSStreet Release Date: 09/28/1993DomesticGenre: ROCK/POP :As Basil Bunting wrote about Ezra Pound's Cantos, 'There are the Alps... you will have to go a long way round/if you want to avoid them.' Led Zeppelin's work is the central fact of 1970s rock & roll; in its loving homage to and shameless piracy from the blues, its glorious and wretched excess, its transformation of hippie and folk-rock graces into a foundation-shaking kaboom, and its offhanded myth-making, the band turned everything caught in its wake into a reaction to it--or against it.

Hot Rocks 1964-1971 [DSD Remastered](more) »rank: 412by: The Rolling Stones
: :Remastered reissue of 1972 compilation, suitable for standard & 'Super Audio' CD players. Gatefold digipak. Rolling Stones Photos Amazon.com:It's the rare greatest-hits album that takes on a life of its own. Generally, best-of collections are superceded by updated retrospectives. Hot Rocks is one of the rare exceptions to the rule. Originally released in 1972, it instantly became the Stones intro of choice, elbowing aside Big Hits, High Tide and Green Grass and Through the Past Darkly. Why? It happened to hit the racks when Mick and company were at their creative peak. The 21 tracks found here represent seven years of dizzying growth. ... |

Blind Faith(more) »rank: 1758by: Blind Faith
: :The short-lived classic-rock supergroup Blind Faith's sole album has aged remarkably well. In 1969, Blind Faith fused the psychedelic blues of Eric Clapton and the soulful vocals and keyboards of Steve Winwood with the polyrhythmic, Afrocentric leanings of drummer Ginger Baker. 'Can't Find My Way Home' is one of the hippie era's most lyrically poignant, sonically subtle tunes. The record has a lot of surprises; 'Presence of the Lord' is rousing and melancholy at the same time, while the way the bass and guitar double-team on the introductory melodic line to 'Had to Cry Today' makes a hard-rock cliché fresh again. The 10-minute ... |
