| | Jerry Lee Lewis 18 Original Sun Greatest Hits CD Jerry Lee Lewis Discography of CDs
As any rock critic worth her salt will tell you, rock and roll is supposed to be dangerous, wild, just beyond the pale of respectability. True rock and roll, in other words, emanates from the legacy of Jerry Lee Lewis, rock's first incorrigible punk. Jerry Lee lived the wild life, but more importantly for music fans, he channeled all his manic abandon into his music. When he's at his best--and whenever he decides to put in the effort, he is--Jerry Lee rocks better than anyone. For proof, check out 18 ORIGINAL SUN GREATEST HITS, a solid collection of Lewis' legendary early singles.
18 ORIGINAL SUN GREATEST HITS includes all of Lewis' most familiar classics, among them "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On," "Great Balls of Fire," and "High School Confidential." The less obvious choices--"Drinkin' Wine Spo-dee-o-dee" and "All Night Long," for example--are expertly chosen (although nearly everything Lewis recorded during this period has something to recommend it!). Those looking for more might prefer the two-disc ALL KILLER, NO FILLER, but for those seeking a single-disc overview of the Killer's music, 18 HITS will fill the bill perfectly.

18 Original Sun Greatest Hits album
 $14.95  
THE SCREAMING END is an all but definitive Gene Vincent compilation, cannily programmed with his most real gone (as they used to say) performances. This is rockabilly at its wildest and (paradoxically) most carefully crafted thanks, in no small part, to the Bluecaps. They were arguably the fiercest rock band of their day.
There are two main reasons for the band's precision and power. One is a virtuoso guitarist in the justifiably legendary Cliff Gallup (he of the breathless stream of notes on "Race With the Devil"). The other is a 15 year old (!) drummer Dickie Harrell (that's him screaming on "Be-Bop-a-Lula" and most of the other ...

18 Original Sun Greatest Hits songs
$12.95
Front Line Assembly's last album, Epitaph, received decent reviews in the press, but it split the fan base. Some felt it was merely the continued development of the band, some felt it was limp and incorporated too much of Delirium's sound (the band's successful off-shoot). With original member Rhys Fulber coming back to the group, the stage is set for a return to form. Civilization returns to the band's classic sound here and there, but it just as often turns to Delirium-style ambiance and neo-classicism. After making a grand entrance with two tracks of gritty industrial-dance, Civilization switches to the rather dreamy "Transmitter," a track with vocoders, violins, and angel's voices. It's ...
| | Ken Peplowski Easy To Remember CD (2004) (Import) Germany
18 Original Sun Greatest Hits album
$42.05
If clarinetist Ken Peplowski seems a little old-fashioned in the post-millennium, then so be it. It's a conscious choice that a number of young players have made since the swing and Dixieland revival from the '70s and onward, and the jazz world is richer for it. Easy to Remember, then, isn't the type of album to cause waves or create new movements. Instead, Peplowski, joined by guitarist Joe Cohn, pianist Ted Rosenthal, ...
| | Collection: The Clash/London Calling/Combat Rock CDs (2000)
18 Original Sun Greatest Hits CD music
$21.69
THE CLASH (US Version), LONDON CALLING and COMBAT ROCK are also available separately in newly remastered versions.
Additional personnel includes: Baker Glare (whistling); The Irish Horns (brass); Micky Gallagher (organ).
In 2004, the folks at Sony repackaged the Clash's self-titled debut, London Calling, and Combat Rock in a three-disc longbox. In 2005, they decided to save on packaging and reissued the very same set in a slipcase as part of its Collection series. The merits of the records are well known to anyone who has spent any time listening to the band. In characteristic Sony fashion, they released these three together perhaps because they were the most commercially successful titles the band ever recorded. The Clash was first and was released in two versions between the U.S. and U.K., London Calling was the band's third album, while Combat Rock was their ...
