 (2 Customer Reviews)
On its debut album, POKINATCHA, the Washington State-based punk-pop trio MxPx (originally known as Magnified Plaid) offers up a restless set of tunes that is heavily influenced by Descendents, NOFX, and like-minded California acts. Fronted by singer/bassist Mike Herrera, the amiable trio established itself as the Tooth & Nail label's flagship band, finding success as a Christian-leaning counterpart to Green Day, as evinced on hard-charging three-chord tunes such as "Anywhere But Here" and "Realize." Although MxPx would go on to issue more accomplished outings, POKINATCHA is particularly notable as the group's only record to feature guitarist Andy Husted, who would be replaced by Tom Wisniewski in 1995.

Hailing from Bremerton, Washington, MxPx (a shortened form of their old moniker, Magnified Plaid) mixes youthful exuberance with rage, a sure-fire recipe for success in the modern, hardcore-friendly market. This band, however, shows a wisdom and emotional maturity which belies their peach-fuzz visages. The opener, "Under Lock And Key" explores the attitude of youth ("Should I wake up and explain myself to you/Or should I not care and sleep the whole day through"), vocalist Mike ...

Although generally not as highly regarded by the critics as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, or the Who, the Kinks may well have influenced far more musicians. The three-chord sledgehammer proto-metal burst of teenage lust called "You Really Got Me," the Kinks' third single and first hit, touched off a garage band explosion, which in turn influenced the rise of punk a decade later. Blessed with an astute songwriter in Ray Davies, the Kinks followed the template of "You Really Got Me" for a couple years, racking up hits with "All Day and All of the Night," "Tired of Waiting for You," and "Till the End of the Day." But Davies had more than one card in his pocket, and he blossomed into a sharp social satirist ("Dedicated Follower of Fashion"). By the time the album The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society was released in 1968, Davies had become a master of elegiac studies in English suburbia. The gender-bending "Lola" was a big hit in 1970 and the Kinks entered the video era in 1983 with "Come Dancing" and its memorable video. The Ultimate Collection spans the group's career in two discs, including the hits, B-sides, and key album tracks. ~ Steve Leggett

This warmly swinging collection of small-group swing and traditional jazz is a family affair, the first recorded session to include pianist Ed Metz Sr., drummer Ed Metz Jr., bassist Tim Metz, singer and matriarch Joey Metz, and even the normally nonmusical Mike Metz (who lends his voice to the Can't Come In Chorale on "Red Riding Hood"). Supported by trombonist John Allred and saxophonist Terry Myers, the group trots and swings through a predictable but thoroughly enjoyable set of standards that includes a sweetly pensive rendition of the James P. Johnson composition "You Can't Lose a Broken Heart" and rollicking takes on "Goody Goody" and "Red Riding Hood," as well as several sassy turns by the gracefully aging Joey Metz, whose saucy take on "I Ain't Gonna Give Nobody None of This Jelly Roll" ...

Pokinatcha songs
$18.05
Oliver King Perry ("King" was his given middle name) was born in the industrial boomtown of Gary, IN, in 1920. Precociously multi-instrumental from an early age, Perry was inspired to play alto saxophone after hearing Johnny Hodges featured with Duke Ellington's orchestra. He performed with the Steel City Melodians, studied music at West Virginia's Starr College, and formed his own little band in the early '40s, gigging at clubs throughout Detroit and Chicago. After joining a package tour with Dorothy Donegan, the King Cole Trio, and Scatman Crothers, King Perry's group found itself stranded in Los Angeles. When they started performing in the clubs to generate cash, it was "standing room only." Then Daniel O'Brien began recording their music and issuing it on his Melodisc label. This led to recording opportunities with United Artists, Excelsior, and De Luxe. Early King Perry records reveal a soulful, spirited saxophonist who sang his own unusual and often humorous lyrics. At its best, his sense of showmanship was striking and inventive. Perry kept up with changing popular tastes, focusing on the R&B trend as the 1950s got underway. He engaged in quite a bit of label-hopping during this time, recording with Specialty in 1950-1951; Dot in 1952; RPM in 1953; and the Lucky, Unique, Look, and Hollywood labels in 1954. At this stage of his career, Perry sang a bit like Wynonie Harris, Louis Jordan, or late-period Cab Calloway. "I Ain't Got a Dime to My Name" is an arresting blue bolero based on Gershwin's "Summertime" and laced with traces of "St. James Infirmary." After naughtiness erupts during "Duck's Yas Yas Yas" and Perry loses his last shred of dignity during the foolishly contrived "Animal Song," he actually imitates a circus barker on "I Must Have Been an Ugly Baby." Two instrumental tracks -- "Coquette" and "On the Sunny Side of the Street" -- feel like precious gems after all that corn. Perry was an accomplished ...
