Overseas Stomp (The Lindy) is a cover which appears on a reissue of the self-titled Grateful Dead album. This song is a cover but I’m sure that The Dead added their own distinct touch to the track which is what I’ll be focusing on here. The track opens up …

The fact that not many people know about this band yet is something that really annoys me, and I can only hope that anybody reading this review is convinced enough by the end to go and check them out. RUBY TIGERS are an Aussie band that blend indie rock …

I always love tune to a good dance music. And in this Pulse album, there’s lots of reason to dance and at the same time, exercise. This CD album features lots of CD compilation albums and certainly every track gives me some kind of adrenaline pumping and …

Overview - After Bathing At Baxter’s, Jefferson Airplane’s third effort, continues and expands on the psychedelic sound that the band developed on their previous album, Surrealistic Pillow. This album is very energetic for the most part, although it does have some slightly more melodic songs as well as experimental …

After The Cranberries disbanded in 2002 the bandmembers went back to being with their families, and it took a while until some of them showed any sign of life. Dolores O’Riordan kept a low-profile for several years, she appeared here and there, did some collaborations until she decided to …

Queen, quite simply a legendary band, with the best entertainer of all time fronting the band. An absolute classic that is always played when a sports team wins a trophy in the U.K, is We Are The Champions.
What I love about this song is the very start. The way …

This is the Deftones first official album released in October of 1995 and produced by Terry Date. This is a really impressive debut, the first track Bored is one of my favorite songs by the band. Minus Blindfold has a really cool guitar playing, not my favorite song by …

“Be Without You”
Performer: Mary J. Blige
Every since I can remember, I have been a fan–I use the term loosely–of Mary J. Blige’s music. I say I use the term loosely because I don’t really consider myself a fan: Fans stand out in the rain for concert tickets; fans plaster …

Star Track is a song by Jefferson Airplane which appears on their record Crown Of Creation. The song starts off with a guitar part with a moderate tempo before the vocals come in pretty quickly. The vocal delivery strikes me as somewhat laid-back which gives the song a very …

Baby You’re A Rich Man is a song by The Beatles which appears on their most psychedelic work, Magical Mystery Tour. I chose to include that this is their most psychedelic work because it helps me in describing the overall sound of the track. For some reason this used …

Courtesy of The Red White and Blue is one of several songs that came out after 911. It is sung by Toby Keith. Having spent twelve years in the Army this song has an extra special meaning to me. It makes you feel proud to be an American first …

This poster is the first image that comes to mind when someone thinks of Pink Floyd. This is considered by many to be the cover of the best album ever created. Dark Side of the Moon was one of Pink Floyd’s breakthrough albums in the early 70s. …

I recently discovered a band by the name of Vampire Weekend. This band’s name may sound strange, but do not let that distract you from the fact that their music is wonderful. They have such a different sound than every other band that is currently on my iPod. There …

Well, if the previous album, The Final Cut, was a Roger Waters album, this one is David Gilmour. It’s funny how these two albums are so completely the opposite of eachother. I prefer this one though, if I was to choose between the two. You can pretty much guess …

I don’t think I still need to spell it out…just by the name Led Zeppelin you will know how great and how amazing this album can be, you will just unconsiously tell yourself “this is going to be an incredible album!”.
The BBC Session Album is my most favorite remastered …

I watched Don’t Cha by The Pussycat Dolls on Ellen Show before and I must say that I was totally bemused and impressed. I think the lead singer, Nicole sang like a karaoke version of something. She can really stretch her vocal chords and it was so fun …

The Worst is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Voodoo Lounge. The track opens up with an acoustic guitar part before the vocals come in. To be honest, the vocals don’t sound like Jagger at all and I’m actually not convinced that this is …

“Recovery” Review
Artist-Eminem
Year-2010
Genre-Hip-Hop
I have always been a huge fan of Eminem, from his old stuff and now into his new. He always seems to have that flow that no other artist or hip-hop artist can tap into. Even at his age he is still putting out quality stuff like his …

What has happened to Michael Learns To Rock lately..? They have not been making any music; not that I know of. They are an icon personally to me and it would be a real great loss in the music industry if they are really not there anymore. …

The Slugs were a short-lived punk band out of NYC who, like many punk bands of the time, made their mark in the punk scene with just two 45’s- one in 1979 and another in 1980. In 1981 both were re-released in one sleeve, making for a killer combination …

Monstrously succesful, an absolute legend, constantly on the charts, Pink Floyd’s undisputed masterpiece. These could be the adjectives with which this record could be described with. Other than these, it’s probably one of those rare albums, where the concepts and ideas expressed touch not only one person, but it …

I saw the movie Never Say Never, I was a big Justin fan in the summer and it kind of wore off. I did not notice this song in the movie that much, but when he came out with this song on the album I was absolutly blow away. …

It’s a weird title, but The Only Other Broadway CD You’ll Ever Need is really the name of this CD, which features a variety of Broadway standout numbers from a slew of performers.
The liner jacket covers each song, the play it’s from, and the performers, so it gives the …

The Lantern is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Their Satanic Majesties Request. I’ll say right now that The Lantern has an extremely odd structure which makes describing this song somewhat difficult because the track is extremely unpredictable and is constant changing in ways …

I love the album Faster Pussycat by Faster Pussycat. I had never heard of this 1980’s hair band until about 4 years ago when my boyfriend bought a DVD that had one of their songs on it and I fell in love with it.
So my sister gave me …

Overview —“ 1984, the final album that Van Halen released with David Lee Roth, was definitely not a disappointing final record with the original front man. I’m not a huge fan of Van Halen, although I do like some of their records and I actually managed to see them …

The Song Roses For Momma by Red Sovine is a song about a little boy who’s momma has died and he wants to buy her flowers for her birthday. This song makes me think of how selfish kids are today. I haven’t seen my dad in fourteen years because …

Glen Campbell: Glen Campbell Live was recorded at the Goodtime Theater in August 1994. I love live albums that let you have a feel for the audience and how the performer responds to it. I have a similar album back in the middle of Campbell’s heyday and …

Factory Girl is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Beggars Banquet. Factory Girl starts off with a nice acoustic guitar pattern which actually reminds me of Led Zeppelin for some reason and then a tabla, an Indian percussion instrument comes in, which further reminds …

Barry Manilow is one of my very favorite singers. I love his style and his vocal tones. He’s someone you can sing along with, and that’s a quality I like quite a bit. The CD Ultimate Manilow was issued in 2002 by the Arista label.
The booklet that …

I bought Kerplunk a few years ago, wanting to explore more of Green Day’s earlier music. And I’m very glad I did. Years later, I still listen to the CD and enjoy the wonderful music on it.
Released in 1992, I believe that Kerplunk has a different vibe to many …

I don’t know why, but I am a HUGE Jimmy Buffett fan. I never can spell his name right though; I’m an awful fan. I love what he brings to music; the idea that music should be fun and an escape from life. I really wish I could just …

Besides composing,arranging and even singing in his music. Frank Zappa was also a very good improviser when it came to jamming on the guitar. He may have not been the fastest and technical, which is why he hired Steve Vai for some fast parts he couldn’t play, but His …

I lucked up on Ebay and found this electric acoustic guitar for $49. Imagine how shocked I was at seeing this price on a piece of musical equipment. Not only that, the guitar came with a mini electric amplifier. Now, here’s the catch: the shipping …

Overview —“ Train Of Consequences, a single and music video released by Megadeth for their sixth record, Youthanasia, is honestly a track that I remember being better than how I hear the track now. I believed that Youthanasia is considered to Megadeth’s last good record, or at least last …

Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished is the debut record from Animal Collective. Comprised of ten tracks, three of which being instrumentals, the overall sound of the record can be characterized as experimental, psychedelic, and even fantasy-like. Although the album does have some tracks on it which I personally …

Always on My Mind is one of Willie Nelson’s best songs. It is a ballad about what he should have or did not do. Willie Nelson sings this song with a somber tone as is he is sad. That perhaps his wife or friend maybe has passed …

I am not a fan of soul music, but the reason I know of the music group “The Stylistics” is because they are one of my father’s favourite music groups and he would play their music over the years.
A couple years ago, one of my father’s good friends gave …

Overview - Led Zeppelin IV, largely considered the greatest rock album of all time, takes a blend of everything Zeppelin had done up to that point - electric, fast, acoustic, ballad, epic, long, short, simple, complex, energetic, and mellow, and merges it into a single record. As you can …
