 (1 Customer Review)
This CD contains contains 16 tracks chroncling the 10 year history of this influential Pacific Northwest band. It features all 5 Restless studio releases as well as Greg Sage's solo album, plus rare early album tracks.
The Wipers emerged from late-1970s Portland, Oregon, as one of America's first great punk bands, inspiring both the first U.S. punk wave and the subsequent punk-influenced grunge movement (they were even covered by Nirvana). The only thing is, as this collection makes clear, they weren't strictly a punk band. Frontman Greg Sage was something of a guitar hero (a very un-punk thing to be), and you can hear his distortion-laden journeys unfurl throughout these songs. Also, there was more melodic/dynamic sophistication underlying the melancholy vibe, particularly apparent on the Sage solo cuts here. While the Wipers' influential first album is unrepresented, this disc captures some key moments from the '80s recordings of both the band and Sage on his own, and makes for an excellent second step once that first album has been fully appreciated.Goldmine - Recommended - "...nice introduction to this underrecognized band..."

Best Of The Wipers/Greg Sage
$15.98 
Unlike its 2002 predecessor Back in the U.S., Good Evening New York City doesn't cherrypick highlights from a tour, it commemorates a specific event: the inauguration of Citi Field -- the replacement for the now-defunct Shea Stadium, where the Beatles played a legendary show in 1965 -- in the summer of 2009. The circumstances may be different -- different enough to lead to a Billy Joel cameo on "I Saw Her Standing There," the piano man returning a favor from Paul, who played at Billy's Shea-closing shows in 2008 -- and McCartney might have two strong albums of new material to draw upon, but as an album, Good Evening New York City plays a lot like Back in the U.S. with a whopping 17 of its 35 tracks shared between the two titles. More importantly, the vibe is the same, with Macca delivering an expertly balanced and sequenced set with all the skill of the old pro that he is. Apart from the inclusion of "Mrs. Vanderbilt" and "I'm Down," there are no surprises, either in song selection or performance, but no surprises doesn't mean no satisfaction, and this is plenty entertaining

Best Of The Wipers/Greg Sage
$14.29
John Fogerty released his first solo CD, an album of covers on which he played all the instruments, under the name the "Blue Ridge Rangers," and he revives that concept on 2009's THE BLUE RIDGE RANGERS RIDES AGAIN. Where the first smacked of the righteous zeal of a young purist, RIDES AGAIN is a lot looser in its attack, which is reflected in the way it splits the difference between country and rockabilly classics and reflective numbers from '70s songwriters. These unexpected covers of John Prine, Delaney & Bonnie, ...

Perhaps the definitive live document of the original Fleetwood Mac, LIVE AT THE BOSTON TEA PARTY was recorded at a crucial point in the band's history. By 1970, Fleetwood Mac (the blues-based, Peter Green-led version, not the later pop aggregation) had achieved fame both in their native U.K. and in the U.S., and their pioneering blues-rock was beginning to be influenced by American groups like the Grateful Dead (as evidenced by the extended jams on BOSTON TEA PARTY). They were also about to fall apart, as Green was headed towards a mental ...
