Assembled from stray tracks and oddities and originally released in 1983, this record became a favorite of many fans. The disc's popularity is not surprising considering that TAPDANCIN' BATS' diverse array of selections comes closest to capturing the magic of NRBQ live. While each of the band's previous studio albums yielded classic songs and maintained an incredibly high standard throughout (several of these are certifiable classics by most fans' standards), this record was the first to find such an elastic identity. TAPDANCIN' BATS is the most relaxed highwire teetering you're likely to hear marketed under the banner of a rock album. The disc also contains what is arguably one of NRBQ's best songs, the rarely-performed "Big Goodbyes" which possesses a subtly propulsive groove--it's smooth as butter, but built of a deceptively masterful rhythm base.

The album features an impressive array of guest stars -- including Jerry Garcia, ...
| | Rick Wakeman Journey To The Centre Of The Earth Plus CD (1974)
Tapdancin' Bats - The Anniversary Edition
$13.89 Journey to the Centre of the Earth is one of progressive rock's crowning achievements. With the help of the London Symphony Orchestra and the English Chamber Choir, Rick Wakeman turns this classic Jules Verne tale into an exciting and suspenseful instrumental narrative. The story is told by David Hemmings in between the use of Wakeman's keyboards, especially the powerful Hammond organ and the innovative Moog synthesizer, and when coupled with the prestigious sound of the orchestra, creates the album's fairy tale-like climate. Recorded at London's Royal Festival Hall, the tale of a group of explorers who wander into the fantastic living world that exists in the Earth's core is told musically through Wakeman's synthesized theatrics and enriched by the haunting vocals of a chamber choir. Broken into four parts, the album's most riveting segment, entitled "The Battle," involves Wakeman's most furious synthesized attack, churning and swirling the keyboards into a mass instrumental hysteria. With both "The Journey" and "The Forest," it's the effective use of the strings and percussion section of the London Symphony Orchestra that causes the elements of fantasy and myth to emerge from the album's depths. The gorgeous voice of Ashley Holt is effectively prominent, and some interesting guitar work via Mike Egan arises occasionally but meritoriously amidst the keyboard fervor. The whole of Journey to the Centre of the Earth still stands as one of the most interesting conglomerations of orchestral and synthesized music, and it is truly one of Wakeman's most flamboyant projects. ~ Mike DeGagne
