In between his work in Psychic TV and his incipient techno career via the Plus 8 and Telepathic labels as the Kooky Scientist -- to mention just two of his many interests -- Giannelli found the time to record an enjoyable EP for Wax Trax Records under his own name in 1991. Recorded in his hometown of Boston, Fred is very much a full-on solo effort, with Giannelli playing and recording everything himself, aside from the help of an engineer. Various vocal guest appearances crop up, though of a cryptically credited sort -- thus, Unidentified Teabag Slag, Doris & Orson, and Viva & Mia are some of the folks listed. As a whole, Giannelli's work here touches at points on Psychic TV's acid house obsession -- "V...For Vendetta" and "Rosebud" in particular -- while elsewhere pursuing diversions from guitar-heavy industrial dance to calmer, prettier mood music, as on "Quintessence." "Mr. Denny" is in fact a full tribute to Martin Denny himself, the king of exotica, and is a fine combination of Denny's evocative style with Giannelli's own harder-edged approach, topped off with sampled bits of phone conversation with the man himself. The CD version includes two further remixes. ~ Ned Raggett Fred Songs | 1. | Mindblower |

Purchase Fred CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Rod Stewart Never A Dull Moment CD (1972) Gold
Fred
 $19.10  
NEVER A DULL MOMENT picks up where EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY left off. Here we have more raucous rock & roll with healthy dollops of soul and twang thrown in for good measure. Always looking for a good songwriter to cover, Stewart's honorees here include Jimi Hendrix ("Angel"), Dylan ("Mama You Been On My Mind"), and Rod's personal hero, Sam Cooke ("Twistin' The Night Away"). Sidling up nicely next to these heartfelt interpretations are some of Stewart's finest original songs. Teaming with spiritual brother Ron Wood, Stewart offers up the cheeky ...

| | Halford III: Winter Songs CD (2009) Special Edition; Digipak
Fred
$13.58  
At first glance, Halford's entry into the crowded holiday market looks like a parody. Heavy metal and Christmas make for strange bedfellows, and WINTER SONGS' pastoral cover art -- which depicts Rob Halford staring wistfully (with a goatee and shades) into a soft, snowy pine forest -- screams Spinal Tap. That said, the Judas Priest frontman approaches yuletide standards like "We Three Kings" and "What Child Is This?" with the same conviction that he applied to Priest classics like "Electric Eye" and "Freewheel ...

| | Justin Bieber My World CD (2009) Enhanced CD
Fred
$7.96
Within a couple years, Canadian teenager Justin Bieber went from covering Usher on YouTube to working with Usher. An internet sensation from his renditions of several pop and pop-oriented R&B hits, he was still only 15 years old when he released this, his first album -- though it's more like an EP since it is contains only seven songs that are 25 minutes in duration. Given the comfort level he showed in the material he covered, My World plays it straight, based on the kind of age-appropriate content that would fill out a release from a younger Chris Brown or a junior version of Ne-Yo. Members of the Clutch, Midi Mafia, "Tricky" Stewart, Usher, and a handful of other notable producers and songwriters grant Bieber a set of songs that isn't quite top-level quality, ...
| | Rick Derringer Sky Is Falling CD (2009)
Fred
$8.80  
Released on Fuel 2000, The Sky Is Falling is actually a reissue of the Doin' Business As... Derringer, Bogert & Appice album that was first released in Europe in 2001. In this short-lived power trio, guitarist and producer Rick Derringer reportedly "replaced" Jeff Beck in the "follow-up" to 1973's Beck, Bogert & Appice album (their rhythm section is, of course, made up of ex-Vanilla Fudge members bassist Tim Bogert and rock & roll über-drummer Carmine Appice. Nah. While this doesn't reach those lofty heights. Strictly out of its time and element -- from the songs to the production -- as a hard rock album with well-written compositions, excellent vocals, and musicianship, it works very well. Hearing the set in 2001 was just plain weird given what else was going on in popular music at the time. Hearing it in 2009 with its new title feels almost right, since rock music is deliberately trying to return to the 1970s. These cats are all strict super-choppers and studio professionals. All of them have been recording since the 1960s. The fact that this music continues to have teeth is one thing, but that it's well arranged and raucously played, and offers consistent hooks, excellent melodies, ...
| | Ellen Cleghorne Mermaid CD (1999)
Fred
$9.15
Recorded live at The Riviera Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada.
Ellen Cleghorne's tenure on SNL was a mixed bag, ranging from hilarious to absent/under-utilized. She pokes fun at that fact by joking that her pay checks from the show were made out to "the black girl." Cleghorne jokes about lowering standards ("I used to want a man who would read the Bible, now I just want a man ...
