"Blood Guts & Pussy" (09/08/1998) Rock & Pop Dwarves, Sub Pop Records (USA)Dwarves: Blag Jesus (vocals); Salt Peter (guitar); He Who Can Not Be Named (bass); Vadge Moore (drums). Recorded at Reciprocal Recording, Seattle, Washington in 1989. The song "Fuckhead" is listed on the CD package, but does not appear on the CD. With a title like Blood Guts & Pussy, an album cover which features three nude models drenched in animal blood, and song titles like "Let's Fuck," "Fuck You Up and Get High," "Motherfucker," and "Fuckhead," the Dwarves had obviously redirected their style since Horror Stories. Gone is the subtle suggestiveness of that album, replaced by explicit exploitation and genuinely disgusting humor. Of course, most won't find the Dwarves very humorous; it takes a sick mind to appreciate the Dwarves' celebration of statutory rape on "Let's Fuck" or vocalist Blag Jesus' anger at a girl afraid of AIDS on "SFVD." Thirteen songs full of general punk sloppiness and distortion performed in 14 minutes. [Note: Many pressings of the CD are missing the track "Fuckhead" and the bonus untitled "Bitch" track, although all versions of the CD have "Fuckhead" on the track list.] ~ Matt Carlson

"From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah" (10/01/1996) Rock & Pop Nirvana (US), DGC (David Geffen Company) (USA)Nirvana: Kurt Cobain (guitar, vocals); Pat Smear (guitar, background vocals); Krist Novoselic (bass); Dave Grohl (drums, background vocals); Chad Channing (drums). Compilation producers: Krist Novoselic, Dave Grohl. Recorded live between 1989 and 1994. Includes liner notes by Krist Novoselic. Personnel: Kurt Cobain (vocals, guitar); Pat Smear (guitar, background vocals); Dave Grohl (drums, background vocals); Chad Channing (drums). Audio Mixer: Andy Wallace. Liner Note Author: Krist Novoselic. Recording information: Astoria Theatre, London, England (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Civic Center, Springfield, MA (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Del Mar Fairgrounds, CA (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Great Western Forum, Los Angeles, CA (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); ll Castello Vi De PortaCastello 41 Rome (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Paradiso, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Paramount Theatre, Seattle, WA (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Pier 48, Seattle, WA (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Reading Festival, Reading, England (12/05/1989-01/05/1994); Seattle Center Arena, Seattle, WA (12/05/1989-01/05/1994). Photographers: Mark Kates; Lisa Johnson ; Kevin Mazur; Charles Peterson . The electric smashes and thrashes compiled on FROM THE MUDDY BANKS OF THE WISHKAH were originally intended as half of a double album; the other half would have been the acoustic show released as MTV UNPLUGGED IN NEW YORK. But after Kurt Cobain's death, UNPLUGGED was released on its own, and the task of putting together a live electric disc was put aside for a couple years. Now completed, FROM THE MUDDY BANKS OF THE WISHKAH (named for a river that cuts through Nirvana's hometown, Aberdeen, Washington) serves as a perfect mirror to UNPLUGGED. Where that one offered a recontextualization of Nirvana's oeuvre, this one offers a reaffirmation of the band's raw power. All the elements that made the band a legend are present here: piledriver rhythm section, scabrous guitar work that combines a Neil Young-ish tone with a punk sensibility, and Cobain's anguished, sandpaper vocal delivery. Many of Nirvana's best-known songs are included in versions that double the intensity and aggression (and sometimes the speed) of the original recordings. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" finds the band charging at a pace that suggests its life depends on reaching the end of the song. "Scentless Apprentice" is a raging howl that makes the original version sound like a beer commercial.

"The Layla Sessions: 20th Anniversary Edition [Box]" (09/18/1990) Rock & Pop Derek & the Dominos, Polydor (USA)Derek & The Dominos: Eric Clapton (electric & acoustic guitars, vocals), Duane Allman (electric & acoustic guitars, slide guitars), Bobby Whitlock (organ, piano, acoustic guitar, vocals), Carl Radle (bass, percussion), Jim Gordon (drums, piano, percussion). Engineers include: Ron Albert, Steve Rinkoff, Chuck Kirkpatrick. Producers: Tom Dowd, Derek & The Dominos, Bill Levenson. Recorded at Criteria Studios, Miami, Florida from August to October 1970. This box set was digitally remixed and remastered by Bill Levenson and Steve Rinkoff at The Power Station, New York from May to June 1990. Includes a 16-page booklet with session notes, annotations and an essay by Gene Santoro. Personnel: Eric Clapton (vocals, guitar); Bobby Whitlock (vocals, piano, organ); Dickey Betts, Duane Allman (guitar); Albhy Galuten (piano); Jim Gordon (drums, percussion); Butch Trucks (drums); Carl Radle (percussion). Audio Mixer: Steve Rinkoff. Liner Note Author: Gene Santoro. Recording information: 08/26/1970-10/02/1970. By digitally remixing and remastering these sessions, the producers have resurrected one of Eric Clapton's greatest achievements, his instrumental and songwriting peak. Musically, Clapton was inspired by his new rhythm section and challenged by fellow guitar hero Duane Allman, whose torrid slide guitar makes blues-blasts like "Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out" and "Key To The Highway" so compelling. And from the classic title song (with drummer Jim Gordon's famous piano coda), to rivetting performances of "Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad," "Have You Ever Loved A Woman," and Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" each and every metaphor is etched in blood and longing, framed in wailing guitars. Disc 1 is the legendary LAYLA double-LP. The jams which comprise disc 2 illustrate the evolution of the session, while the alternate masters, jams and outtakes on disc 3 will certainly be of interest to casual fans and completists alike. All in all, few rock albums from this era have the staying power and poetic immediacy of LAYLA. In the years after Cream disbanded and his collaboration with Steve Winwood in Blind Faith had sunk, Eric Clapton teamed with keyboardist Bobby Whitlock, drummer Jim Gordon, bassist Carl Radle, and guitarist Duane Allman under the name Derek & the Dominos to write and record some new material. The result was this 1970 masterpiece. Shot through with a passion informed by the tumultuous nature of Clapton's own life and career at the time, LAYLA AND OTHER ASSORTED LOVE SONGS plays like a primer for classic rock, with incendiary dueling guitars, swirling organ, blues-styled vocals, and punchy bass and drums. Covers of "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" and Hendrix's "Little Wing" are given fresh interpretations, and the originals, most of which Clapton co-wrote with Whitlock, are by turns fierce, melancholic, and celebratory. The epic "Layla," clocking in at seven minutes and featuring blazing solos all around, pushes the album to its culmination. Throughout, Clapton's playing, spurred by Allman's stellar leads, is beautiful enough to induce cardiac arrest, and LAYLA ranks among the most inspired, soulful, and affecting works in his entire discography.

"Gone with the Wind [CBS]" (06/24/1997) Rock & Pop Original Soundtrack, Turner Classic Movies MusicAll tracks have been digitally remastered. Includes liner notes by Rudy Behlmer. Original score written by Max Steiner. This issue of GONE WITH THE WIND is a "best of" sampler from the Turner Classic Movies 2-CD soundtrack released in September 1996. Includes liner notes by Rudy Behlmer and Max Steiner. All tracks have been digitally remastered. The soundtrack to Gone with the Wind has appeared in numerous forms since its first release on LP in the 1950s. The 1990 CBS/Sony reissue was the second attempt to expand its content significantly, adding some incidental music and refining the sound that appeared on the previous MGM and Polydor versions. Most of it works if one allows for the sheer age of the materials involved -- Gone with the Wind is just about the oldest original soundtrack material that has any significant commercial appeal beyond a cult audience and, having been recorded in 1939, it has never fit entirely well into the modern marketplace. The producers here have tried to clean it up with various filters and other sound processing, which generally makes it easier on the ear. No re-recording of "Tara's Theme" or other memorable elements of the score were ever as well conducted as the original (even when composer Max Steiner himself attempted it in the '50s), and the sound is less ragged here than on earlier versions. The Rhino reissue from 1996 improves it yet further, though there will always be something lacking in some of the source material, in terms of modern fidelity and what contemporary listeners expect. ~ Bruce Eder

"Love Songs: A Compilation...Old and New" (09/28/2004) Rock & Pop Collins, Phil, Rhino Records (USA)Personnel: Gerald Albright (soprano saxophone); Harry Kim (flugelhorn). Audio Mixers: Chris Lord-Alge; Don Murray ; Hugh Padgham; Allen Sides; Phil Collins; Tom Lord-Alge. Audio Remixer: Allen Sides. Recording information: Toulouse, France. Photographers: Sebastian Copeland; Julian Broad; Guzman/Rotterdam Conservatory Orquesta Tipica. Arrangers: Roberta Flack; Brad Cole . This 2004 collection features romantic hits that Phil Collins personally chose from his extensive solo catalog, including the emotive "Against All Odds," the pleading "One More Night," and the gentle "You'll Be in My Heart." However, there are also obscure tunes found here, and these songs make this compilation unique. For example, this two-disc set includes a rehearsal version of Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors," a song Collins often covered in concert during the late 1980s. This R&B-inflected rendition contains a clever vocal arrangement from Amy Keys and Brad Cole that employs rich harmonies, leaving the instrumental accompaniment in the backseat. Another Collins rarity is his live version of the Jerome Kern song "The Way You Look Tonight." Collins's take on this standard avoids being overly sentimental, with Harry Kim's impassioned flugelhorn solo adding a jazzy and sensitive tone. For fans of Collins's softer side, LOVE SONGS is quite a treasure.

"Lost and Gone Forever" (09/28/1999) Rock & Pop Guster, RepriseGuster: Adam Gardner (vocals, guitar, trumpet, bass); Ryan Miller (vocals, guitar, piano, organ); Brian Rosenworcel (vocals, trombone, percussion). Additional personnel: Tracy Silverman (violin, viola); Dan Rieter (cello); Karl Denson (flute, saxophone); Tony Levin (bass, Chapman stick); Chris Manning (bass); Page McConnell (Theremin). Recorded at The Plant, Sausalito, California and Bearsville Studio, Bearsville, New York in 1999. Personnel: Adam Gardner (vocals, guitar, trumpet); Ryan Miller (vocals, guitar, piano, organ); Eric Casimiro, Alicia Berger, Emily Martinez, Kristen Randall, Katherine Forgacs, Alysa, D. Buchanan, Lisa Williams (whistling); Tracy Silverman (violin, viola); Dan Rieter (cello); Karl Denson (flute, saxophone); Brian Rosenworcel (trombone, typewriter); Page McConnell (Theremin). Audio Mixers: John Siket; Steve Lillywhite. Recording information: Bearsville Sound Studios, Bearsville, NY (1999); The Record Plant, Sausalito, CA (1999). Photographers: Chris Buck; Sam Erickson; James Ragsdale. Unknown Contributor Roles: Alicia Berger; Eric Casmiro; Emily Martinez; Kristen Randall; Katherine Forgacs; Alysa, D. Buchanan; Lisa Williams. Signing to a major-label doesn't really change Guster's outlook for their third album, Lost & Gone Forever. However, the switch to the big leagues has given the band the opportunity to hire a heavy-hitter producer, Steve Lillywhite, who performs a similar function here that he did with Dave Matthews. Lillywhite doesn't attempt to change Guster's jovial folk-pop, but he helps them focus and gives them a clear, vibrant sonic palette that makes Lost & Gone Forever sound inviting and intimate. That's a blessing, since it highlights their effortless melodic gifts, warm harmonies, and quirky arrangements. And, depending on your view, it may also be a bit of a curse since it highlights the group's cutesy, jokey side, which can be a little irritating. Still, Lost & Gone Forever is not only Guster's best-sounding record, it's among their most consistent, filled with some of their strongest, catchiest tunes. In other words, it's exactly what their major-label debut should have been. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

"Filthy Lucre Live" (07/30/1996) Rock & Pop Sex Pistols (The), Virgin Records (USA)The Sex Pistols: Johnny Rotten (vocals); Steve Jones (guitar); Glen Matlock (bass); Paul Cook (drums). Recorded live at Finsbury Park, London, England in June 1996. Audio Mixer: Chris Thomas . Recording information: Finsbury Park, London, England. Photographers: Neal Preston; Kate Garner. With the punk-rock seeds they sowed 20 years earlier finally bursting into the mainstream, the Sex Pistols return to cash in. We don't mean that as a knock; we're quite sure, in fact, that's exactly what the Pistols themselves would tell you if you asked. And besides, this document of their 1996 London show (released barely a month after the actual gig) finds the Pistols' original intensity undiminished. Playing all the songs that made them infamous, Johnny Rotten (nee Lydon) and company actually sound more aggressive and driving than they did in their '70s heyday. They're a million miles (and a few singing lessons) from the Las Vegas punk nostalgia act some feared. On classics like "Holidays In The Sun", "Pretty Vacant" and "Anarchy In The UK," the Pistols lay it down with an authority that leaves no doubt as to the authenticity of their reunion. Fans of modern-day punks such as Rancid, Green Day and Offspring will instantly recognize the roots of their heroes in this collection of seminal punk played with all the spirit one could hope for.
