At last a 'proper' CD re-issue for 999's legendary debut album which includes the singles "Me And My Desire", "Emergency", "I'm Alive" and the quite brilliant "Nasty Nasty". Sleeve notes and a full set of lyrics are all part of the packaging for this album that really should be an integral part of everyone's collection.
Liner Note Author: Mark Brennan .
A truly neglected classic, 999's eponymous debut album was issued in March, 1978, on the back of three stunning 45s -- the romping "I'm Alive," the anthemic "Nasty Nasty," and the oddly ambitious "Me and My Desire." The first and last of these appeared on the album, together with the summer smash that never was, June, 1978's, "Emergency," and it is with these tracks as its benchmarks that 999 should be judged. A ferocious live band, the group harnessed every iota of their stage performance for the studio, turning in an album that zips past at the speed of light, in a blur of chant-worthy choruses and pogo-able riffs; even better, three bonus tracks round up the absent "Nasty Nasty" 45, plus a pair of period B-sides, to deliver a picture perfect portrait of 999's first year. There would, of course, be many more to come. ~ Dave Thompson

The most underrated group in the history of punk delivered a great album. Everyone who has one punk album should buy this one too. They could play. Brilliant madness. And the artwork is also very, very good.

 $17.75
999's Second Studio Album Gets The Full Captain Oi! Treatment With Lyrics To Every Song, Liner Notes & 4 Rare Bonus Tracks. Includes The UK Hit Single Homicide Plus The Anthemic Feelin Alright With The Crew.
Liner Note Author: Mark Brennan .
Recording information: 1978.
From the opening blare of "Homicide" -- 999's sixth single and first British hit -- it was apparent that Separates was to be no "ordinary" punk second album. Almost without exception, every other band in the pack had faltered or fallen when it came time to delivering their sophomore effort. 999, however, simply looked back at what they'd already accomplished, then made certain that they repeated it, with added improvements all over the show. So, the tunes are tighter, the riffs are crunchier, the choruses are even more memorable, and the entire album -- released just six months after its 999 predecessor -- stands among the most timeless artifacts in all punk history. Adhering to the same format as Fan Club's 1989 reissue of the album, the ...

| | Tesla Standing Room Only CD (2002) DualDisc
999
$15.39 
Dual Disc CD/DVD
Tesla includes: Jeff Keith (vocals); Frank Hannon (acoustic & electric guitars, keyboards, background vocals); Tommy Skeoch (electric guitar, background vocals); Brian Wheat (bass, background vocals); Troy Luccketta (drums, percussion).
Recorded live in 2001.
This is a DualDisc, which contains a CD on one side of the disc and a DVD on the other.
Although Tesla was often lumped in with all those unbearable glam metal bands during their first go round in the late '80s/early '90s, they were always a cut above the hairspray set, especially live. Despite being off the road for the latter half of the '90s, when the group reunited in 2000 and started playing live once more, the chemistry was still there -- as evidenced by the 13-track live release Standing Room Only. Issued in DVD Audio (which means it plays on DVD players and is in 5.1 surround sound), Tesla shows why they were considered one of the best live hard rock acts to emerge during the aforementioned era (especially evident in guitarists Tommy Skeoch and Frank Hannon's graceful dual harmonies), as nothing but the classics are included here -- including the expected riff rockers ("Cumin' Atcha Live," "Heaven's ...
| | Jessica Lofbomm Tonic CD (2006)
999
$13.69
This is the first solo album of Jessica Lofbomm, half of the duo Laughing Tree, known for "Laughing Tree Lullabies".Visit http://LaughingTree.org for news and photos.One might think that a CD release in the United States in June followed by a move to Asia the next month would be a formula for a flop. But Jessica Lofbomm definitely didn’t think so. Equal parts confident performer, natural communicator, tireless adventurer, and welcoming homebody, Jessica thought it ideal to take her fresh, new offering to a brand new place with brand new people. Sitting in her cozy South Korean apartment with sunlight filtering through the bamboo blinds, Jessica smiles and says, “I love being able to brighten someone’s day. I can do that with a song, a conversation, or by welcoming them into my home. That’s why I recorded Tonic in the first place. I’m excited to do that for my new friends in Korea as well.”Raised in the western suburbs of Chicago, Jessica first learned about music and the big, wide world in the internationally-touring Glen Ellyn Children’s Chorus. She moved to Music City, USA (Nashville, Tennessee) to attend Belmont University in 1999 and continue her training in classical music, when she found her voice as a songwriter. Facing relationship struggles, spiritual doubts, and coming-of-age questions, songwriting was her refuge. Jessica completed college with a repertoire of personal and expressive songs, supported by her round training in classical, musical theatre, pop, folk, and jazz music.As she finished college, Jessica found love in Adam Lofbomm, and they married in 2004. Also a world traveler and an electronic music devotee, Adam urged Jessica to take the next, risky step: record her music and share it with a wider audience. “The Moses in me thinks you’ve called the wrong oneCan’t you just let me be comfortably common?Send me on a safer, smaller task…” The moment was perfect as the needed musicians, available studio space, support from family, and fitting songs all aligned. James Waddell, a producer of R&B and gospel music and Jonathan Lawson, a singer/songwriter who plays every stringed instrument combined with Jessica to create an eclectic and exciting fusion of styles.Tonic was born. A collection of some of her early songs along with hymns she grew up singing, Jessica Lofbomm’s debut CD Tonic reflects her foundation and reference point. In music, tonic is the root, the foundation ...
| | Simken Heights Jack Or Die CD (2007) Parental Advisory
999
$11.49
Few groups in horrorcore rap have been able to establish as unique a sound as the legendary Simken Heights. When they first hit the Michigan scene in the 90's, they grounded themselves as original pioneers in a sound that had yet to have its full potential realized. When songs like "Blast Blast" and "Slay The Hook" first made their way through the midwest, Simken began building a loyal fanbase immediately. Touring with ICP & other shows would expand their audience further. The raw gangsta vibe of Cap One’s production blended perfectly with the distinct vocal blend of himself and Mass, creating a sound that had never before been heard in rap. They had tapped into a groundbreaking, addictive sound that others would later attempt to clone, but never succeed in. Despite hardships, including the murder of member J-Rome, they continued on to push out consistent material for a great ...
